Weapons
Weapons are essential items used for combat against enemies, bosses, and even other players during PvP games. Most weapons are crafted at any crafting station, while others can only be found in chests, as enemy/boss drops, or purchased from NPCs. The Calamity Mod adds a large number of new and unique weapons for players to use. Many are upgrades to existing weapons and others are wholly unique.
Melee weapons
Swords
Swords are melee weapons which can be divided into 2 basic categories: Shortswords, and Broadswords. Shortswords have a very limited range and attack with a horizontal stabbing motion instead of an arc, while Broadswords are swung overhead, which makes it easier to defeat flying and jumping enemies than shortswords.
