Regular Weapons
Regular weapons are your classic medieval weaponry – swords, spears, maces, hammers, and the like. They all follow the same generic formula – they have a set price, damage output, and some may have general properties that affect their function. Please consult the below table. They don’t have special abilities, or the like. Just good ol’ pieces of metal and wood.

Properties
Duality – This weapon has two modes of attack. You must declare which mode you are using before you make the attack. The respective damage values and other properties are divided by a slash.
Heavy – This weapon requires two hands to use and attack with. The weapon may be held in one hand for short periods, but only for the purposes of carrying it around.. Some abilities also refer to this property.
Light – When attacking with this weapon, you can use your Dexterity modifier for your attack rolls instead of your Strength modifier. Some abilities also refer to this property.
Long range – This weapon can be used in a range other than Close, noted in parenthesis. Some weapons can only be used in a long range.
Magical – This weapon is treated as being inherently magical. Weapon upgrades may still be applied to them.
Reach – Your Close attack range with this weapon increases by 5 ft.
Special – This weapon has special rules governing it (or one of it’s modes is special).
Blowgun – When used in the special mode, the weapon deals no damage, but is considered to be fired with the Injection ammunition type.
Bola – A creature no larger than 10×10 ft. hit by a bola is considered grappled until it is freed. A bola cannot grapple creatures that are formless or creatures that are larger. A creature can use its action to make a DC 10 Strength (Escape Artist) check, freeing itself or another creature within its reach on a success. Dealing 5 damage to the bola (AC 10) also frees the creature without harming it, ending the effect and destroying the bola. When you use an action, bonus action, or reaction to attack with a bola, you can make only one attack regardless of the number of attacks you can normally make.
Harpoon – When a harpoon hits, it remains embedded in the target and may not be used until freed from the target. The harpoon is considered to naturally have the Barbed Ammunition effect and a creature no larger than 10×10 ft. hit by a harpoon has its speed halved.
The harpoon can have a line attached to it. If such is the case, you can use an action to attempt to pull the creature toward you. Make a contested Strength check. On your success, the creature is pulled 5 feet toward you, on your failure you drop the line. Regardless of the result, the harpooned creature takes 1d4 damage. Dealing 5 damage to the line (AC 10) destroys the line without causing additional damage to the harpooned creature.
Hooked Spear – As one attack, the wielder can use this weapon to force the target to make a Saving (Dexterity) throw (DC = 10 + attacker Strength modifier), falling prone on a failure. The attack deals no damage when using this mode.
Net – A creature no larger than 10×10 ft. hit by a net is considered restrained until it is freed. A net has no effect on creatures that are formless or creatures that are larger. A creature can use its action to make a DC 13 Strength (Escape Artist) check, freeing itself or another creature within its reach on a success. Dealing 5 damage to the net (AC 10) also frees the creature without harming it, ending the effect and destroying the net. When you use an action, bonus action, or reaction to attack with a net, you can make only one attack regardless of the number of attacks you can normally make.
Unarmed Strike – Unarmed strikes are the basic attacks that everyone can make. They aren’t considered a traditional weapon in the sense that abilities and effects that apply to weapons cannot be applied to unarmed strikes, unless explicitly stated. You may make an unarmed strike even with both your hands full, without suffering any additional penalties.
Thrown – When attacking with this weapon, the weapon leaves your grasp and you cannot use it for further attacks until you retrieve it.
Weapon Upgrades
A weapon may be enchanted via magic to give it more power and/or unique abilities. This is done via weapon upgrades. These upgrades are applied to a weapon you already own, and cannot function alone. A weapon with a weapon upgrade is treated as a magical weapon. Only one weapon upgrade may be applied to a weapon. Applying them to a weapon (or moving the upgrade to a different weapon) can be done over the course of a long rest. Some weapon upgrades may require the owner to be attuned to the magical weapon, which is included in the initial application of the upgrade. For further rules about attuning, see the Equipment Basics page.
