    A All sharp melee weapons come also with (weak) blunt attacks.
    B A jade knife can only be obtained via the Lost tribe scenario; they cannot be crafted nor purchased.
    C These weapons cannot be created by the player, they are able to be obtained through quests and purchasing them from Merchants. All but the eltex staff come in "persona" variants that cannot be wielded by anyone other than the bonded pawn unless it has the "freewielder" trait, so make sure you choose a good pawn to use them.
    D These weapons also have a 75% chance to set a pawn on fire. This damage is included in the DPS.
  • Descriptions[edit]

    Axe.png
    Axe Content added by the Royalty DLC

    An advanced form of one of mankind's oldest weapons, the war axe is a short blade attached to a shaft. The simple, ancient design concentrates cutting power generated from strong overhand swings.

    Elephant tusk.png

    An elephant's tusk. It is very durable and valuable. While somewhat unwieldy as a melee weapon, it can still be deadly.

    Gladius.png

    A short sword of ancient design. Good for stabbing or slashing. It's light and nimble, which sometimes lets it beat bigger, heavier weapons.

    Ikwa.png

    A short spearhandle attached to a long bladed point, designed to be driven into vital organs with a quick thrust.

    Jade knife.png

    One of mankind's oldest manufactured objects. The knife has taken many forms, but the concept has always remained the same: A handle for holding and a sharp edge for cutting.

    Longsword.png

    The ancient weapon of kings, the longsword can be used for slashing or stabbing.

    Monosword.png

    Persona Monosword.png

    This weapon has an onboard persona that can bond to only a single person. The wielder and intelligent weapon can synchronize their reflexes and attack with frightening speed, accuracy, and creativity. Once bonded to a wielder, the weapon's persona will refuse to be wielded by anyone else.

    Persona PlasmaSword.png

    A metal-cored sword with a cutting edge. Plasma is wrapped around the core, held in place by an energy field. Targets are both sliced by the metal core, as well as burned or ignited by the plasma sheath.

    Thrumbo horn.png
