{{header|The Game World|Items|Weapons|type=Weapon|version=Version 41|incver=49}}There are two main types of weapons: [[#Melee weapons|melee]] and [[#Ranged weapons|ranged]].

__TOC__

== Melee weapons ==
Melee weapons are typically quieter than ranged weapons, they also do not require any [[ammo]]. The downside to melee weapons is that the player must be dangerously close to the target and can become [[Moodles#Exhausted|exhausted]] if they use them for an extended period of time. This can be mitigated by improving the player's [[fitness]].

Melee weapons are grouped into two main categories: [[#Blunt weapons|blunt]] and [[#Blade weapons|blade]], while improvised weapons are classified into one of these categories as well.

===Axe===
Axes are typically two-handed weapons that can be used to cut down [[tree]]s to get [[log]]s.

=== Blunt weapons ===
Using these weapons levels up the [[Skills#Blunt|blunt combat skills]]. Increasing the blunt skills allows the player to improve damage, accuracy, defense (guard), and weapon degeneration (maintenance), when using blunt weapons. A hotkey can be used to quickly equip a blade weapon using <code>1</code> by default, so long as the player has one in their main inventory.

=== Blade weapons ===
Using blade weapons levels up the [[Skills#Blade|blade combat skills]].  Increasing the blade skills allows the player to improve damage, accuracy, defense (guard), and weapon degeneration (maintenance), when using blade weapons. A hotkey can be used to quickly equip a blade weapon using <code>3</code> by default, so long as the player has one in their main inventory.

====Stab weapons====
Stab weapons have a special "jaw-stab" instant-kill move when used while stationary at minimum range, making them much more useful as weapons than they may appear at first glance. They're an effective tool at dealing with single zombies, as it kills them quickly and quietly, limits exertion and is effective regardless of strength or accuracy. The player can even whittle down a group with it, if careful enough. Still, it does have some caveats, which are listed below.
* Requires timing: Too early leads to a regular(useless) attack, but too late and the player could get hurt before doing any damage.
* Modest recovery time: If facing a group, it is recommended to isolate one foe by at least a few feet before striking to prevent getting flanked. 
* Most of the weapons break easily: common cutlery break especially fast.
* Weapons may sometimes get stuck in the zombie upon death, and need to be recovered (which is a problem if there are still zombies remaining)
