Weapons: Melee, Ranged, Magic
  • Melee Weapons: Swords, Hammers, Axes. Swords are balanced, Hammers deal high damage but are slow, Axes are a middle ground. Each has a unique 'Legendary' version with special properties.
  • Ranged Weapons: Rifles, Pistols, Crossbows. Rifles have high damage and range, Pistols have faster fire rates, Crossbows are a mix. Legendary versions offer unique bonuses.
  • Magic Gauntlets: These are your source of spells. You can equip two different gauntlets to cast two different spells, or combine them for a 'woven' spell. Gauntlets gain power as you use them.

All weapons gain 'experience' as you use them, unlocking unique visual changes and stat bonuses based on your actions (e.g., killing good people with an evil weapon). Experiment to find your favorites.
