A large variety of weaponry awaits your discovery in the Hand of Fate world. You will come across axes, swords, maces, and hammers - some with their own unique enchantments - that you have to buy, earn, steal, or kill to get your hands on.
Some weapons have a skill that can be activated with left bumper (controller), "1" key (keyboard), or any bound key (keyboard).
Some weapons have a passive ability triggered on hit, or on heavy attacks (hits with a combo meter above 12).
Occasionally, a weapon will have an Enchantment giving it certain elemental properties
- Holy: Increased damage against undead
- Fire: Ignites enemies on hit, doing damage over time
- Ice: Does increased damage to lizards and slows enemies
- Lightning: Inflicts electricity on enemies doing damage over time
