Weapons in Ashen are primarily differentiated by whether they are bladed or blunt. Bladed weapons typically have lower damage, faster speed, and an inherent critical chance with blunt weapons having higher damage, slower speed, and an inherent stun chance.
Weapons can be Upgraded using Bataran's anvil in Vagrant's Rest once the town has been established.
