Overview
Weapons are your main source of damage. There are two categories of weapons; Melee weapons and Ranged weapons.
If the required strength is less than the hero's, an additional damage uniformly distributed between 0
and heroStrength-requiredStrength
is applied to the attack.
That bonus only happens:
- with missile weapons for Huntress,
- with melee weapons for other classes.
A weapon will become identified after 20 successful hits.
Melee weapons
The Melee weapons are rated on a tier system which determines how powerful the weapon is. When a Scroll of Upgrade is used on a weapon, the damage goes up and the strength requirement goes down, but the tier, accuracy and delay values will remain the same.

Weapon generation
Weapon generation follows three steps:
- two weapons are created, their type being randomly and independently selected from the table at Weapon/probabilities,
- each weapon is randomized according to its type:
- a melee weapon has its level randomized following the table at Weapon/random, then acquires an enchantment with a
1/(level+10)
probability, following the table at Enchantment/probabilities, - a missile weapon has its quantity randomized,
- a melee weapon has its level randomized following the table at Weapon/random, then acquires an enchantment with a
- the weapon which required strength is closest to
10 + numberOfGeneratedPotionsOfStrength
(theoretical Hero strength, except for Warriors) is selected and dropped on the floor (75 %), put in an unlocked chest (20 %) or hidden in skeletal remains (5 %).
- In flooded vaults and rooms of traps, the generation is more complicated, as it involves armor generation too.
