How weapon stats work

Weapons aren't just a Power number

Weapon types have different attack sequences, speed, reach and attack patterns. These base values help compare how weapons behave, while Item Power, Effects and Enchantments affect the final in-game result.

  • Melee weapons are compared on combo damage, attack count, base comparison DPS, reach and attack arc.
  • Ranged weapons are compared on shot damage, shot interval, burst DPS, ammo and range.
  • A Unique is a named variant of a base weapon with one fixed effect. Its base combat values are not automatically higher.

Displayed damage values are base/comparison values, not your final in-game damage.

Ranged Weapons: Shot Damage, Burst DPS and Ammo

Ranged weapons are compared on shot damage, firing interval, burst DPS, ammo pool and range. Burst DPS is a comparison value for the shots you get before the ammo runs out.

Unique weapons

Unique Weapons and Their Base Weapons

A Unique weapon is a named variant tied to a base weapon and one fixed special effect. The effect is the reason to use it, not a guaranteed upgrade.

40 Unique weapons

A Unique is not simply an upgraded version of its base weapon: some share the same base combat values, and some trade a stat for their fixed effect. Compare before you invest.

These filters come from the weapon's own measured values, so a new weapon lands in the right group automatically.

Filters, not rankings: a tag describes how a weapon behaves, not how strong it is.

Builds

Find Weapons for Your Build

Playstyle groups follow what a weapon can actually support in a build, not an internal class name.

Bosses

Fighting a Boss?

Pick a boss to see the damage types it is weak to and the weapons that strong builds bring to that fight.

Sources

Where to Get a Weapon

Each weapon links to the areas it is known to drop in and to the farm finder for a focused search.

Where can it drop?

Comes from the weapon's own area, quest and boss membership.

What can that source roll?

Comes from the source rarity table, which describes the source, not one specific weapon.

Exact per-weapon drop percentages are not published data, so we show source membership instead of a made-up number.

How to farm Unique items

Best weapons

Looking for the strongest options?

Strength depends on the fight, the build and the damage type. These three directions are the usual starting points.

  • Raw damage

    Mob Mallet

    Base DPS 25.5

  • Fast attacks

    Axe

    Base DPS 37.1

  • Long reach

    Pike

    Base DPS 31.5

The highest raw DPS is not automatically the best weapon. The tier list ranks by real fight performance instead.
