'''Weapons''' serve the purpose of dealing damage to various things, ranging from doors and crates to monsters and NPCs.  
'''Weapons''' serve the purpose of dealing damage to various things, ranging from doors and crates to monsters and NPCs.
 
There are a number of ways to categorize items:
 
* Melee or Ranged
* Martial or Simple
* One-handed, Two-handed, or Versatile
 
Each weapon deals a specific type of physical damage.  The damage types are:
 
* Blunt
* Slashing
* Piercing
 
In addition, weapons can have various special properties, though not all are implemented in the game as of now:

! Property
! Description
|-
| Ammunition
| (Not implemented.) You need ammunition to be able to attack. You can regain half of your spent ammunition after a battle by spending one minute to search the area.
|-
| Finesse
| When making an attack, you can choose between Strength and Dexterity for the attack and damage rolls (you must use the same choice for both).
|-
| Heavy
| (Not implemented.) Small creatures have [[Disadvantage]] on attack rolls.
|-
| Light
| Can be wielded in your off-hand as a secondary weapon.
|-
| Loading
| (Not implemented.) You can only make one attack per turn with this weapon, be it through an action, bonus action, or reaction.
|-
| Range
| Every ranged weapon has a normal range and a long range. Creatures that are beyond normal range but within long range can be attacked, albeit with [[Disadvantage]]. Creatures outside of long range cannot be attacked.
|-
| Reach
| A melee weapon with this property can be used to attack enemies up to 10ft away, instead of the regular 5ft.
|-
| Special
| Various special rules apply to the weapon, explained in its description.
|-
| Thrown
| A weapon with this property can be thrown for a ranged attack, even if it's normally melee. This combines with the Finesse property. For example, if you throw a Handaxe, you use Strength, but if you throw a Dagger, you can choose Dexterity instead.
|-
| Two-handed
| Indicates that this is a two-handed weapon. It can only be used with both hands.
|-
| Versatile
| Indicates that this is a versatile weapon. It can be used with one hand or both hands. Typically, using a versatile weapon with both hands offers a higher maximum damage.
|-
| Improvised
| Indicates that this is an object not designed to be a weapon, but can be used as such anyway.
|-
| Silvered
| (Not implemented.) Some monsters are immune or resistant to nonmagical weapons, but susceptible to silver weapons.
