Weapons
Pick Your Argument
A clean cut. A well-placed arrow. A very large hammer. Different answers to the same problem.
Three Kinds of Physical Trouble
Slashing
Swords, axes, greatswords and great axes default to slashing. The armor matchup design gives chain and plate their strongest answer to these cuts.
Piercing
Spears, arrows and crossbow bolts default to piercing. The new matchup design makes chain more vulnerable to it while plate resists it.
Blunt
Maces, mauls, physical punches and kicks hit with blunt force. The game also calls this Bashing. Plate's matchup profile is weakest here.
Individual attacks may override a weapon's default: a thrust can pierce and a pommel can hit bluntly. Fire and holy damage keep their magical defenses, even when a weapon delivers them.
One Hand, Two Hands, or a Little Magic
Close enough to regret it
One-handed Sword, Axe, Mace and Spear have separate mastery paths. Greatsword, Great Axe and Maul bring their own two-handed paths. Polearm remains a separate equipment category without an authored mastery tree yet.
Keep your distance
Shortbow, Longbow and Crossbow each get their own progression. Arrows and bolts remain ammunition. A proficiency unlock does not give you a free shot.
Hands for casting
Focus, Book and Unarmed Casting cover how you cast. Offensive, Healing and Buffing Magic cover what you cast. A separate Shield tree rewards using your guard.
