Type over name
The tool database filters by type. Axes, swords, clubs, bows and staves each play differently. Pick one type and learn its timing before mixing.
Sample tools: Club of the Mother Demon, Tingle Tongue, Salt Chipper, Frosted Flake, Black Ox Crossbow, Slime Lantern.
Tier is gating
Tier 1 is starter gear. Tier 2 needs beaten bosses. Tier 3 is end-game. Do not skip tiers; the damage gap is real.
Charge, throw, repair
Most weapons have a charged heavy and a throw. The charge is your boss damage; the throw is your escape tool. Weapons break, so carry a spare.
Stamina and speed
Heavier tools swing harder but cost more stamina. A fast sword lets you block and dodge on a tighter budget. Match the tool to your bug.
Match the tool to the bug
Check the target weakness in the creature database. Bring that damage type. The right tool ends a fight in seconds; the wrong one drags.
