Posted by xietingting on January 20th, 2018

Sometimes they come with special modifiers such as a wand’s increased spell damage. Weapons are split into eight different categories.

Axes are a one-handed and two-handed melee weapon class requiring strength and dexterity to equip. Most axes have no implicit modifiers but do have high base physical damage and moderate attack speed, resulting in overall higher damage per second than swords or maces.

Bows is an item class of two-handed ranged weapons that require dexterity to equip. Quivers may be equipped with bows to provide additional bonuses. Bows have low base critical strike chance but moderate physical damage and attack speed, resulting in overall higher damage per second than wands.
