dnd-5emagic-items

When a PC finds a +1 weapon, what stat or stats increase by one? For example, in the Lost Mine of Phandelver adventure in the Starter Set, there is a +1 Longsword. What does it do?

Best Answer

From the Basic D&D DM book p60

Weapon, +1,+2,+3

You have a bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. The bonus is determined by the weapon’s rarity

So you get a bonus to your attack and damage rolls with a +1 weapon.
