Known weapon entries
Greatsword
A community guide describes a wide swing and Whirlwind special attack, and recommends it as approachable for beginners.
Solis Iubar
Officially named in the 1.0.23 patch notes. A full playstyle profile is not yet verified.
Minigun
Officially named in the 1.0.23 patch notes. Exact stats and unlock details are not included here.
Six branch names to verify
An inspected competitor weapons hub groups its catalog under these labels. They are useful research leads—not yet a source-backed official list on this site.
Do not use the competitor's `200+ upgrades` wording as a fact. Steam and TEAM HORAY currently support only the safer statement used above: six styles with more than 50 unique upgrades for each style.
Sword & Shield
Catalog label discovered during competitor research. Official naming and current branch details are pending.
Greatsword
Also appears in a readable community beginner guide; its beginner recommendation remains player-reported.
Dagger
Catalog label discovered during competitor research. Range, defense and upgrade details are withheld.
Katana / Blade
The inspected page uses both terms. The exact official English label still needs confirmation.
Crossbow
Catalog label discovered during competitor research. Co-op and safety claims are not adopted.
Staff / Magic
The inspected page groups these terms together; the official taxonomy is still being verified.
How to evaluate a weapon
Range, strength, weakness, drop location and ranking are omitted when current-version evidence is missing.
Range and timing
Test the distance, attack cadence and commitment window yourself; the catalog table is not treated as proof.
Defensive action
Identify what the current weapon actually lets you do—block, parry, dodge or reposition—before comparing labels.
Learning curve
Judge how reliably you can read telegraphs and repeat the weapon's core actions, not its place in a tier list.
Build fit
Compare the weapon with your current Artifacts, Tablets and available room to adapt.
What the competitor page could not verify for us
The six branch labels—Sword & Shield, Greatsword, Dagger, Katana / Blade, Crossbow and Staff / Magic—come from an inspected competitor catalog and remain original-source verification leads.
Tier rankings, branch-specific defense, Hard Mode performance, co-op party composition, upgrade reset rules and merchant priorities remain unpublished as facts.
