	Bopha's Cutter	1	600	Bopha solved the Riddle of Ephestrus by cutting his crown in half. I mean, Ephestrus was WEARING the crown, but hey, problem solved.	Heavy			Shortsword
	Bob's Fire Sword	1	650	Bob arose like a dream from the west. His fire sword is legendary, landing him no end of endorsement deals.	Medium			Shortsword
	Frozen Pyramid Shortsword	1	450	A pre-Iced weapon. For best use, let thaw for 3 hours. Alternatively, quick-thaw in the chest cavity of a warm blooded enemy - an Inugami, for example.	Light			Shortsword
	Raven's Wing	1	750	The beat of a raven's wing is enough to push even the mighty. Strike someone with this blade and send them flying.	Light	Raven Push Back		Shortsword

	The Master Axe	1	700	Made by a master, who was a master of making, and not fighting. He would still be alive if he had been.	Medium			Axe
	Twilight's Flame	1	700	Not as bright as midday's sun, not as dark as the night. That stuff costs extra you know.	Medium			Axe
	Pyramid Hand Axe	1	750	A golden axe imbibed with arcane power, and a fresh, minty scent.	Medium			Axe
	Ilarnek Longsword	1	500	The people of Ilarnek carried these Ice-infused longswords. Like the Hoardmen, they were well-insulated, and they never got cold. Some people have all the luck.	Heavy			Longsword
	Pyramid Longsword	1	500	A mystical gold sword alight with unearthly energy.	Heavy			Longsword
	Grine Longsword	1	550	The grim curse of the Grine infection is sort of like interdimensional cooties.	Heavy			Longsword

	Nam-Lugal's Cure	1	1850	Every hit from this cursed blade slows the pulse of its victim. They won't know what hit them.	Heavy	Narcolepsy Slow (slows enemies on strike)		Longsword
	Sandakar Bastard Sword	1	900	Sandakar was a man of ambition. Always had plans for unrivaled greatness, this is prototype for greatness.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Pyramid Greatsword	1	1000	Twenty-one feet of death, which is more than enough to make up for its Mudane makings.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Grine Greatsword	1	1100	Oh, you know, only a sword made of the soul-essence of a million damned adventurers.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Thran Battle Hammer	1	550	Setwa was the greatest weaponsmith in Thran. One day he started on a new hammer, got about half way through, and said 'Eh, good enough.'	Medium			Hammer
	Mister Night Night	1	750	Oof, that's a terribly scary looking one, isn't it? That Piercing mouth-spike should do a number on the ratty armor of the Hoardmen.	Heavy			Hammer
	Fist of the Flayed God	1	800	It is said the Flayed God's skin was ripped off to make the world. This was a tad upsetting, and this Bashing weapon was designed to spread the misery around.	Heavy			Hammer
	Dun's Bashing Stick	1	950	If at first you don't succeed, smash and smash again. So said Dun. Every other word was smash, honestly.	Medium			Hammer

Tier 2

Icon	Weapon Name	Tier	Price	Description	Heft Weight	Active Traits	Passive Traits	Moveset
	Blood Sickle	2	800	Arcanists of Agur cannot match most in single combat, instead they rely on patience. This may not cut deep, but enough to bleed an enemy dry given time.	Light	Sickle Bleed		Shortsword
	The Moon Blade	2	750	A crescent of Arcane magic. Used by Agar the Terrible in the atrocities of Khar-Gamont, and by adventurers like you to butcher helpless, innocent Spiders.	Medium			Shortsword
	Cephil's Tooth	2	1400	Life Drinker	Heavy			Rapier
	Cleaver	2	1400	Rend and tear, that's what it does. The cleaver is quite good at lopping bits and pieces off of creatures. They don't even need to be dead!	Heavy	Spawns torn flesh.		Rapier
	Rage Fang	2	1400	This sword is wild. It has a mind of it's own. No, actually a mind of its own. Her name is Tammy, she's a bit rude.	Heavy			Rapier
	Sentinel Blade	2	1400	Wielded by Berelaine Sentinels, nimble and slinky devils. They seemed to glide moving hastily almost unimpeded, then striking like a Staggering wave.	Heavy			Rapier
	Typhal's Knuckler	2	1400	The great thing about a shielded sword, it can parry incoming blows even while striking. Unfortunately it is not a very damaging blade.	Heavy		Diminished Damage +30	Rapier
	Obisdian Quickblade	2	700	Forged in the land of Palas, whose people are renowned for the use of slow killing poison. They are not renowned for naming things well.	Medium			Axe
	Oota's Hand Axe	2	1000	Oota would sing while using this axe (which if it were embedded in you, would be extremely discomforting). Its piercing edge makes quick work of Hoardmen.	Heavy			Axe
	Thermias	2	1	Everyone's favorite sword: Now with more FIRE!	Heavy			Longsword
	Shadowborn Scimitar	2	900	Hooked? Check. Giant? Check. Covered in a bug's drool? Check. Wait, who made this list? Slightly sticky, but otherwise a serviceable Mundane weapon.	Heavy			Longsword
	Macuahuitl	2	850	Life ends in strange, often unpronounceable forms. Blood magic runs deep in its core. Beware, for its immense power comes at a cost for you and your comrades.	Ultraheavy	Attack Bonus +2	Blood Sacrifice Self, Blood Sacrifice Team	Longsword
	The Sword of Off-White Skull	2	1000	Some guy in fur pants came into the Necropolis swinging this like an idiot. Perhaps he throught it bore some enchantment, but it is a Mundane weapon.	Heavy			Longsword
	Sandakar Greatsword	2	1200	Sandakar the weaponsmith loved the sound of children's laughter, but he hated Rats. He imbued this weapon with Fire for the express purpose of murdering them.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Death's Eye Greatsword	2	1200	So popular, now you can have your own. This Mundane weapon can be used to keep foes of all types at bay, so long as the wielder does not become exhausted.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Stone Cutter	2	1450	Once, on the windswept plains of Jandis, a man wandered, dispensing justice. Then some guy with this sword killed him and took his stuff.	Heavy			Greatsword
	Grine Greatsword	2	1500	A Greatsword that has been infected by the infernal Grine. Best to keep one of these in reach when a Changeling is on the hunt.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Sword of Aescapulus	2	1500	Like steel justice swooping across a vast... uh... hang on. I lost my place in the metaphor. Anyway, it's a big, Mundane sword. Aescapulus was neat, too.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Fire Scythe	2	2000	A wicked, curved weapon imbued with magical Fire. Deadly against most things, but not against Skeletons, so keep that in mind.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Lightning Hammer	2	1200	Generates huge arcs of electricity on hit. Objectively impressive to anything that's vulnerable to Arcane energy - ie, most things that aren't the Scrounge.	Ultraheavy			Hammer
	Hammer of Time	2	1000	Time moves slowly, as does the Ice that frosts this hammer's head. Each can be lethal in its own right, but the Shell Mages are indifferent to both.	Ultraheavy			Hammer
	Plague Bearer	2	550	Why kill an enemy with blunt force when deadly fungus is just as effective? Why not both?	Medium			Hammer
	The Sculptor	2	1600	The Bashing weapon of a true artist, breaking bones and reshaping bodies every time it's swung. It even steadies your footing. Those Grine don't stand a chance.	Heavy			Hammer
	Frozen Pyramid Pike	2	1500	As cold as Ice to touch. Death, it seems, feels as cold as they say. Perhaps this is why the Shadowborn prefer the warmth.	Heavy			Hammer
	Doombringer	2	??	With this weapon, you can fell any enemy. But it's cursed, so they can most likely fell you too.	Heavy			Hammer
	Staff of Indiscriminate Violence	2	1200	This heavy staff seems to have a mind of its own. It whispers to you: "Swing me at things. Bash the world to a pulp." It's kind of creepy, to be honest.	Heavy			Staff
	Shadowborn Tuning Staff	2	1100	The Shadowborn use these tools to maintain the engines of the Necropolis. In anyone else's hands, they are simple but powerful Mundane weapons.	Heavy			Staff
	Loo's Sceptre	2	4200	Loo was magnanimous, electrifying, and had pull with everyone. Really his sceptre did all of the work. A hefty swing of this and everyone gets pulled to you.	Heavy			Greatsword

Tier 3

Icon	Weapon Name	Tier	Price	Description	Heft Weight	Active Traits	Passive Traits	Moveset
	Adder's Tooth	3	1100	Seven people died cleaning this blade. Imagine if you hit something with it.	Medium			Shortsword
	The Wings of Winter	3	1200	If you hold it closely you can hear the wind whistling through the blades.	Light			Shortsword
	Kopeshi Can Opener	3	850	Was used to open cans until it killed 74 people and they repurposed it. It slices through metal and bone. No shield can stop this blade.	Ultraheavy	Pierce	Unblockable	Rapier
	Sabre of the Lost Third	3	850	The Lost Third disappeared after losing their way in the Huk Forest. Guess they lost this sabre as well.	Ultraheavy			Rapier
	Cassilda's Estoc	3	1200	Men would fall at Cassilda's feet, most with this sword in them. It's not so great against the fleshless Skeletons, though.	Heavy			Rapier
	Life Drinker	3	2400	A leech is a contemptible thing. This one at least gives as much as it takes. A immensely powerful blade, but it saps the life of its wielder.	Heavy	Arcane	Attack Bonus +1, Life Drink	Rapier
	The Subtractor	3	1700	This thing is an excellent Bashing weapon. Because of that, it's terrible for fighting Delvers, who hit one another in the face for recreational purposes.	Heavy			Axe
	Shadowborn Longsword	3	1050	While the Shadowborn worked really hard to make this weapon look spooky and ghostly, it's actually imbued with a form of Arcane energy. Who knew?	Ultraheavy			Longsword
	The Sword of Aeot	3	1400	This Mundane blade was once rumored to allow limited flight. Found on the body of Ascepulus of Dun, who misunderstood the "rumored" and "limited" parts.	Ultraheavy			Longsword
	Emerald Knight's Greatsword	3	1750	Most screams per square foot of any sword ever produced. A Mundane Greatsword capable of skewering enemies by the dozen.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Sword of Pain	3	1900	The best part of a sword like this is all of the boring conversations that you no longer need to have. A powerful Mundane weapon with no special attributes.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Pyramid Greatscythe	3	1900	Clearly not for farming... well, not food, anyway. A Mundane implement capable of dealing terrible damage.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Spirit Scythe	3	2000	A hooked nightmare of a thing which, strangely, also has a cupholder. For best results use on Delvers, Gemeaters, and Changelings.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	The Skull Smasher	3	2000	Predictably, this Bashing weapon isn't great for grinding Diggers into paste. But it helps protect you from getting knocked over, so it has that going for it..	Ultraheavy			Hammer
	Bell Ringer	3	1400	Ringing bells, making Ice, and killing monsters - what could be more fun? Especially great for smashing the Shadowborn, who really need to be taken down a peg.	Ultraheavy			Hammer
	King's Bane	3	1800	Zar the Smooth demanded a weapon as charming as he was. Turns out it was more charming than him: its swing can make anyone a friend.	Ultraheavy			Hammer
	The Viper's Sting	3	4200	Poison can be a deadly thing, it takes time to kill. But it does kill eventually. This serpent's venom will eat your enemies from the inside out.	Heavy		Increased Stamina Attack	Staff
	Shadowborn Junker Staff	3	1300	Wouldn't it be nice if all work tools could double as terrifying weapons of destruction? This is a heavy Mundane instrument carried by the Shadowborn.	Heavy			Staff
	Staff of the Bewildering Sigil	3	1500	Basically, a big Mundane stick. While it wasn't made for the express purpose of hitting things, it performs the function well nonetheless.	Heavy			Staff

Tier 4

Icon	Weapon Name	Tier	Price	Description	Heft Weight	Active Traits	Passive Traits	Moveset
	The Sword of Personality	4	1500	An occult sword, brandished with a certain unmistakable flourish. It's great for Piercing things - the soft abdomens of Spiders, for example.	Ultraheavy			Rapier
	Dawn Blade	4	1600	With enough volts to put that pep in your morning step! A healing jolt of Arcane magic with every strike, but that can be exhausting.	Heavy	Heals when attacking enemies.	Exhausts the player while being held.	Rapier
	Blackheart	4	2200	Fear can be demoralizing: it can weaken your attacks, and make your own efforts suffer. Just make sure you use it on your enemies.	Heavy		Attack Bonus -1	Rapier
	Song of the Night	4	2500	An Arcane tune so soft and sweet, it will put your enemies to sleep. Permanently. Skeletons are not fond of such songs or magics.	Heavy			Axe
	Axe of the Hunt	4	1900	Hunting the Scrounge is a popular sport in the Necropolis. But when you've got an Acid-edged axe that ALSO knocks things down? That's just cheating.	Ultraheavy			Axe
	King's Justice	4	3000	Interestingly, King's Justice can be used to answer any question. What's for breakfast? King's Justice. See?	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Grine Primal Greatsword	4	2000	Oh boy, now THAT is a Grine infection. Gemeaters and Changelings fall before this blade, but the Inugami are resistant to its edge.	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	The Greatsword of Opulence	4	3200	This thing is amazing. No, seriously, every time you swing it, it rains diamonds. Diamonds!	Ultraheavy			Greatsword
	Soul Morningstar	4	2750	When they found Thiran, she was standing motionless, surrounded by dead Acid-drenched Clockwork Knights. This weapon had kept her upright, even after her death.	Ultraheavy			Hammer
	Staff of Effervescent Power	4	1800	Arcane energy on a stick - that's what this thing is. Funny thing about Arcane magic: the Shadowborn are basically immune to it. They could drink the stuff.	Heavy			Staff
	Abraxis' Balancing Rod	4	2000	A rod of congealed Arcane power that somehow prevents you from falling over. The Clockwork, who feed on Arcane energy, love things like this.	Heavy			Staff

	Blunderbuss of Grav	3	2000	When Grav built this blunderbuss, it had so much excess metal that he wound up claiming it had an "integrated shield." He wound up marketing that as a feature.	Light

Tier 4

Icon	Weapon Name	Tier	Price	Description	Heft Weight	Active Traits	Passive Traits
	The Harbinger	4	1400	This device is a warning, a grim portent of Arcane ruin to come. Screamers are also grim portents, but the "Arcane ruin' thing doesn't worry them very much.	Light
	Phantom's Sting	4	1400	You feel an icy tickle when handling it, its not some strange metal. Just the souls of every creature ever slain by this weapon.	Light
	Teeth of Iosis	4	1550	You wouldn't think that splinters of Ice could serve as effective projectiles, but they do. Just ask the Nagual, who seize up and die when frozen!	Light
	Swamp Fang	4	1850	A cruel weapon that spits Acid on command. Scary as it is, the Infected aren't impressed! They'd laugh off its attacks if they were still capable of laughing.	Light

Tips

• Carrying a Light Weapon along with a Heavy or Ultraheavy one may prove useful against varying types of enemies.
• It is best to hold the Dawn Blade during battles, as it will constantly drain stamina if held.
• The Sword of Opulence can become pointless during later levels - where it is actually found, as by the time on reaches there, they would have more Gems than needed.
• For level 9, the best type of Weapons to be used are Acid, Ice and Bashing, as they will make defeating Clockworks, Naguals and Bone Effigies much easier.
