All Weapon Types in Wild Hearts
Early in the game, players will unlock a Karakuri called the Field Forge, and in this area, players can use this to craft or enhance weapons, craft new armor, or switch between weapons. Plus, they can only craft five different weapons at the start but will be able to craft three more once you reach Chapter 2. The types of weapons found in the game are:
- Karakuri Katana
- It is the first weapon players get in the game and, most likely, the first one they will master eventually. This long sword is mid-weight, easy to handle, and delivers attacks in a short range
- Nodachi
- This massive huge weapon deals massive damage in close-range combat and is fairly easy to handle. Its shape resembles that of a giant chopping knife.
- Bow
- If a player wants to focus on long-range attacks, the bow is the weapon best suited for this play style. With the other attack commands, players can change how they hold the Bow horizontally or vertically.
- Bladed Wagasa
- With the shape of an umbrella, this lightweight weapon can deal damage at close range and allows players to easily parry incoming attacks.
- Maul
- The Maul is considered to be the heaviest weapon to be used in the game. It delivers maximum-impact attacks as well as high-mobility attacks and can greatly damage nearby Kemono and any Karakuri in range.
- Canon
- The Canon is one of three weapons you’ll be able to get after reaching Chapter 2 and this heavy long-range weapon is worth the use as it can deal damage with either a charge shot or rapid shot.
- Clawblade
- Clawblade is another weapon of the 3 that can be unlocked after reaching Chapter 2 and it is a lightweight weapon that allows players to perform quick attacks in aerial combat.
- Karakuri Staff
- After reaching chapter 2, players can craft the Karakuri Staff and this weapon is one that can changes form in every attack. This weapon can change from a twin fang to a giant shuriken to a war pike and to a long staff. The combos using this weapon are endless and unique.
