All 107 Weapons and Their Damage in Dark and Darker

Dark and Darker is a dungeon game where you explore, fight monsters and other players, and try to escape with loot before you die. Weapons are your main tools for all of it. The game's weapons are split into swords, maces, daggers, polearms, axes, bows, crossbows, firearms, magic items and shields. Each group fights differently, and knowing how they differ will help you choose what to carry.

Dark and Darker Weapon Types Explained

The weapons fall into a few main groups. Swords, maces, daggers, axes and polearms are melee weapons, so you use them up close. Bows, crossbows and firearms are ranged weapons that hit targets from a distance, and magic items are built around spellcasting. Shields are a group of their own, since they're there for defense and show an armor rating rather than damage.

Within each group, weapons differ a lot in size and speed. Daggers are the quick option, which is why Rogues lean on them, while Barbarians rely on heavy two-handed axes.

Which Classes Can Use Which Weapons

Most weapons are tied to specific classes, so this is the first thing to check. Bows belong to Rangers, with one exception: the Survival Bow, which Bards can also use. Spellbooks are for spellcasters like Wizards, Clerics, Warlocks, Druids and Sorcerers.

The reason this matters is simple. A class that can't use a weapon can't equip it at all, so a strong-looking find can be useless to you. If you're playing a Rogue, a bow won't help you no matter how good its stats are, so look at the class list before you plan a build around any weapon.

Two-Handed, Off-Hand and Shield Slots

Every weapon takes one hand or two, and where it goes matters. Main-hand weapons are the ones you swing, shoot or cast with. Off-hand items, such as shields and some daggers like the Castillon Dagger, go in your other hand. Two-handed weapons like the Crossbow, the Hand Cannon and the Spellbook take both hands, which leaves no room for an off-hand item.

Shields are the main off-hand choice for defense, since blocking with one reduces the impact of incoming hits. Because a shield fills your other hand, you'll need to decide between defense and a second off-hand item.

Damage and Move Speed

Every weapon lists its damage, which is either physical or magical depending on the weapon. Move speed is just as important, though. Each weapon takes away a set amount of speed while you hold it, and heavy weapons take far more. The Bardiche slows you much more than the Castillon Dagger does, and that difference adds up over a long run through a dungeon.

Speed loss doesn't stop there. Blocking, casting and attacking each slow you down further, so a heavy weapon can feel even heavier mid-fight. Think about how much speed you can give up before you pick one.

Dark and Darker Weapon Rarity Tiers

Every weapon has a rarity tier, running from Poor up through Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary and Unique. Higher tiers generally bring more damage and more random bonus stats, which the game calls enchantments.

Because the bonuses are random, two weapons of the same rarity can perform very differently. Speed loss usually stays the same as you move up tiers, so the real differences come from the rolls. Check the stats on each weapon rather than relying on the rarity color alone.

How to Get Weapons in Dark and Darker

You'll find many weapons in dungeon runs. You can loot them from fallen enemies and containers, but a weapon only counts as yours once you get out alive. If you die, you lose what you were carrying.

Merchants are the other route, and they sell weapons, so it's worth checking their stock before you head into a run. The Weaponsmith is the one to know for melee gear, since it sells melee weapons and also crafts, turning ore into ingots and ingots into stronger versions of a weapon. Crafting isn't open from the start, since its recipes unlock as you progress, but it lets you aim for a specific weapon instead of waiting for a lucky drop.

Bows, Crossbows and the Hand Cannon

Bows are two-handed weapons that fire arrows, and the arrows live in a quiver. A bow is only as useful as the arrows you bring, so keep an eye on your supply before you head in. Crossbows are the bow's cousin, but they're spread across more classes. The regular Crossbow is two-handed, while the Hand Crossbow is one-handed and goes in your off-hand.

The Hand Cannon is the game's firearm, and it's a two-handed gun for Fighters and Rangers. It trades fire rate for big damage, so each shot needs a reload, and reloading slows you down as well. The weapon also carries a heavy speed penalty. Its damage is true physical, built to pierce even the thickest armor.

Magic Weapons and Spellcasting

Magic weapons form their own group, covering staffs, spellbooks, tomes, rods and crystal balls. These weapons are built around spellcasting rather than plain swings.

Most are made for spellcasters like Wizards, Clerics, Warlocks, Druids and Sorcerers. Some can also be swung like a normal weapon, and the Spellbook is one of them, though that isn't its main purpose. Casting slows you down while you do it, so casters have to plan their positioning carefully.

FAQ

What is the best weapon in Dark and Darker?

There isn't one weapon that's best for everyone. The right pick depends on your class, how you like to fight, and the stats that rolled onto the weapon. Balance also shifts with patches, so a weapon that's strong today may be weaker later. To compare two options, look at the damage for your class, the speed the weapon costs you, and whether its bonus stats fit how you play.

Which classes can use crossbows in Dark and Darker?

Rangers and Bards can use both the Crossbow and the Hand Crossbow. Fighters and Wizards can use the regular two-handed Crossbow, and Rogues can use the Hand Crossbow in their off-hand.

What kinds of bonus stats can a weapon have?

The bonus stats depend on the weapon, and the list is wide. Examples include armor penetration, magic penetration, Luck, extra max health, damage reduction and extra damage against undead. Armor penetration is the one to look for when you're up against heavily armored enemies, since it helps your hits get past their armor.
