One-Handed (11 weapons)
The balanced category. The Fanatic's Drunken Sword uses a drunken-boxing style with evade-and-counter moves, and Jagged Steel shares its name with a Weeping Creek Valley boss.
Dual-Wield (9 weapons)
Fast, multi-hit blades. Seamless Death throws a chakram on its heavy attack for a ranged option, so it plays differently from the other dual blades.
Two-Handed (9 weapons)
The heavy, slow category. Juggernaut charges up while blocking then sweeps, and Scarlet Wraithblade drops from the boss Hua, Deadly Betrothed.
Phantom Edges (24, across 5 categories)
Primary weapons are all blades, so bows, hand cannons, axes, and hammers live in your Phantom Edge slots. The five categories are Artifice (5), Destructive (5), Martial (5), Ranged (5), and Summoning (4). Phantom Edges are limited-use, refill at checkpoints, and have no switch cooldown. Bashpole (Destructive) drops from Wan Jun "Coppermaul."
