Weapons (Anarchist Mod)

Weapons are essential items used for combat against enemies, bosses, and even other players during PvP games. Most weapons are crafted, while others can only be found in Chests, as enemy/boss drops, or purchased from NPCs. The Anarchist Mod adds a large number of new weapons for players to use. Many are upgrades to existing weapons and others are 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 similarly to spears, being able to stab in multiple directions. Broadswords are swung overhead, which makes it easier to defeat flying and jumping enemies.
