Weapon types


Every class except the TaeKwon has weapons it is best with, and some weapons are shared by several classes. The weapon is the main source of damage on any character's Equipment, so it is usually the first piece to improve. The source lists these types:
| Type | Noted users |
|---|---|
| Bows | Archer classes and Rogue |
| Instruments / Whips | Bard / Dancer |
| Two-handed swords, Spears | Swordman classes |
| Knuckles | Monk and Priest |
| Katars | Assassin |
| Guns | Gunslinger classes |
| Huuma Shuriken | Ninja classes |
| One-handed swords, Rods, Maces, Books, Daggers, Axes | Several classes |
Weapon level
Every weapon has a level from 1 to 5. It decides which material is used to refine it, how much attack each refine adds, how far it can be refined safely, and how much its ATK and MATK vary.
| Level | Material | Refine fee (zeny) | ATK per refine | Safe up to |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Phracon (NPC shop) | 50 | +2 | +7 |
| 2 | Emveretarcon (NPC shop) | 200 | +3 | +6 |
| 3 | Oridecon (monster drop) | 5,000 | +5 | +5 |
| 4 | Oridecon (monster drop) | 20,000 | +7 | +4 |
| 5 | Etherdecon (Ether Dust + Oridecon) | 50,000 | +8 | +3 |
Ammunition
Ammunition is equipped as a support item next to the weapon and is usually used up as you attack. Bows fire arrows, guns fire bullets, Mechanics and Geneticists shoot cannon balls with Arm Cannon and Cart Cannon, Ninjas throw shuriken and kunai, and Assassins use venom knives.
