·Multi-source verified (91/96)

Salt and Sanctuary features a diverse array of weapon types, each with unique movesets and scaling properties. Greatswords and Greathammers are slow but deal massive damage, scaling primarily with Strength. Swords and Axes offer a balance of speed and power, often scaling with both Strength and Dexterity. Daggers and Whips are fast, excel at critical hits, and scale primarily with Dexterity. Bows and Crossbows provide ranged damage, scaling with Dexterity. Staves scale with Magic, while Wands and Holy Tomes scale with Wisdom. Weapon scaling is indicated by letters (S, A, B, C, D, E), with S being the best. Always choose weapons that scale well with your primary damage stat. Experiment with different movesets to find what suits your playstyle. Upgrading weapons at a Blacksmith significantly increases their damage and scaling.
