| + | {{version029}} |
− | Characters may [[wield]] [[weapon]]s to attack enemies. Weapons may be divided into [[ranged weapon|ranged]] and [[melee weapon]]s. Occasionally, they may possess a [[brand]] or be an [[artefact]].
| |
| | | |
− | ==Weapon attributes== | + | '''Weapons''' are items which you can wield to improve your ability to attack enemies. In most cases, they deal non-elemental damage, making them suitable for dealing with any threat. Weapons are divided into two main categories: |
− | The following is a table of all weapons in Crawl, aside from ammunition. Below is a short explanation of each field. This table has been partially updated for [[0.11]]. Some notable changes: [[Ankus]]es have been removed.
| + | *[[Melee weapon]]s |
| + | **[[Magical staves]] |
| + | *[[Ranged weapon]]s |
| + | **[[Throwing]] |
| + | __NOTOC__ |
| + | ===Useful Info=== |
| + | All weapons are subject to [[skill]]; increasing skill increases [[weapon damage]], [[accuracy]], and decreases the [[attack delay]]. The heaviest weapon is not always the best, as an unskilled user will swing inaccurately and slowly, potentially giving monsters two turns for your one. Certain weapons also take two [[handedness|hands]] to use, which restricts the use of a [[shield]]. Both skill and strength are multipliers to a weapon's base damage. |
| | | |
− | {| class="wikitable"
| + | Weapons are not required for melee combat; [[Unarmed Combat]] is available at any time and uses similar damage formulas to weapons. |
− | ! Name
| |
− | || The name of the item as it appears in Crawl.

| |
− | ! Damage
| |
− | || The base amount of damage the weapon does, before various bonuses and adjustments. <!-- From Henzell: Total is: Approximately: 1d(base*strength_bonus + slaying)*skill_bonus + 1d(to_dam) + various bonuses. Weapon brand is applied after monster AC reduction.
| |
− | Strength bonus is usually < 1.5 (see str), skill bonus (both from weapon and Fighting skills) is randomized, averaging about 2.0 at max skill
| |
− | Damage bonuses include +1d10 for might, -1dasp for 1.5-handed weapons with shield, -1d5 when Starving, and racial weapon bonus ( +1d3-1 for dwarves and demonspawn, +1 for orcs (more with Beogh)).-->

− | ! [[Weapon Speed|Speed]]
| |
− | || This is actually the attack delay, which is multiplied by 10 to get the "percentages" you see in-game. (That is, attack delay 10 shows as 100%.) Every 2 levels of weapon skill lowers the delay by 1 unit. A weapon's minimum delay is half of its base delay (rounded down) or 7 (5 for sabres) whichever is lower. Speed brand cuts delay by half (round up), and haste cuts delay by a third (round randomly up or down). These effects stack, ''after'' the base cap, but there's an absolute cap of 2 for attack delay.

Double-handed weapons currently behave as two handed (i.e. require two free hands). All ranged weapons except slings suffer speed penalties when used with a shield.

− | '''Notes for ranged weapons:'''
| + | ===Weapon Properties=== |
− | * Two or Half means that it can be used with a shield, but there is a reloading time penalty. | + | *Base damage: The damage done, before modifiers and adjustments. This is multiplied by strength and skill bonuses. |
| + | *[[To-hit]]: Accuracy. Larger weapons have less accuracy, though skill and enchantment increase it. |
| + | *Delay: How fast the weapon swings naturally, in [[decaAut]]. |
| + | **[[Minimum delay]]: How fast the weapon can possibly swing, once you reach a certain skill level. Most weapons have a mindelay of (Delay/2) or 0.7, whichever is lower. Every 2 skill levels decrease base delay by 0.1 until you reach mindelay. |
| + | *[[Handedness]]: Weapons that require two hands restrict the use of a [[shield]] and the [[auxiliary attack|offhand punch]] ([[Octopode]]s can still offhand slap). [[Size|Smaller]] species may find certain weapons requiring two hands and normally large weapons completely unusable. |
| + | *Type: Each weapon has its own designated weapon type ([[Short Blades]], [[Polearms]]...), and each weapon type has its own skill and potential quirks. |
| | | |
− | ===Race variants=== | + | ===Weapon Modifiers=== |
− | Weapons can have various race variants. Dwarven, Elven, Orcish, or Demonic. These have the following properties,
| + | *[[Enchant]]: A higher enchanted weapon will be more [[to-hit|accurate]] and deal more damage. |
| + | *[[Brand]]: Brands generally help with combat, increasing damage and/or causing elemental effects. |
| | | |
− | '''Dwarven''' weapons are more resistant to corrosion than normal weapons. Dwarves do slightly more damage with dwarven weapons. And randomly generated dwarven weapons have 50% chance of being +1 to hit, and 50% chance of being +1 to damage. So dwarven weapons generally have better +x,+y bonuses.
| + | Magical staves do not have either. [[Artefact]]s may also come with special properties not found on regular weapons, though are not necessarily better. |
| | | |
− | '''Elven''' weapons give to hit bonuses to elves who wield them. And they also have a chance of getting up to +2 to hit bonus.
| + | ==See Also== |
| + | *[[Weapon choice]] - Strategy for which weapon to pick |
| + | *[[Weapon damage]] - Damage formulas |
| | | |
− | '''Orcish''' weapons give damage bonuses to orcs who wield them, followers of [[Beogh]] get even higher damage bonuses as their [[piety]] rises. And they have a 50% chance of getting -1 to hit, and a 50% chance of getting +1 to damage.
| + | ==History== |
| + | *Prior to [[0.14]], there were elven, dwarven, and orcish variants of weapons which had small additional benefits, and [[demonspawn]] characters received a damage bonus when using demonic weapons - see [[Racial weapon variants]]. Also, several weapons were renamed: [[sabre]] to cutlass, [[double sword]] to bastard sword, and [[triple sword]] to claymore. |
| | | |
− | '''Demonic''' weapons have very strong base types. They are not variants, but a different type of weapon. [[Demonspawn]] get a bonus using demonic weapons.

− | | + | [[Category:Items]] |
− | Of course, all weapons have a chance of being enchanted. But the race weapons have a chance of getting a little bit more.

− | == Hand-and-a-half weapons==
| |
− | | |
− | Some weapons are described as being better wielded with two hands, i.e. without a shield. Such weapons are referred to as ''hand-and-a-half weapons'' or 1.5-handed weapons. In theory, they are supposed to suffer greater penalties to accuracy and speed than one-handed weapons, as well as suffering a penalty to damage, when used with a shield with insufficient skill. However, due to bugs introduced in [[0.10]], these extra penalties do not work as intended, and 1.5-handed weapons are effectively one-handed. As it was fairly insignificant to begin with and mostly served to confuse players, the distinction between one-handed and 1.5-handed weapons will be entirely removed in [[0.12]], rather than being fixed.
