There are five melee weapon tiers. Each scaling in strength, from weakest to strongest, there is Bronze, Iron, Steel, Mithril, and Adamantite.


All basic melee types and tiers can be purchased in town (except adamantite and mithril), they also all have the same reach and attack speed. But each has different damage...

Tier Type Damage Gold Cost
Bronze Dagger 5 1
Shortsword 6 60
Battleaxe 7 120
Longsword 8 200
Iron Dagger 9 300
Shortsword 10 450
Battleaxe 11 650
Longsword 12 800
Steel Dagger 13 1200
Shortsword 14 1500
Battleaxe 15 1800
Longsword 16 2200
Mithril* Dagger 17 4200
Shortsword 18 5100
Battleaxe 19 5200
Longsword 20 5300
Adamantite* Dagger 21 9000
Shortsword 22 9100
Battleaxe 23 9200
Longsword 24 9300

*Mithril and Adamantite isn't purchasable in town and is a rare drop from bosses/minibosses or shops on lower floors.

After the 1.2 update was released, all of the melees were reworked to have special abilities when used in conjunction with melee-type armour alongside having unique characteristics. These abilities do not tap into the player's "special attack energy".

Dagger - Has the highest DPS and fastest equip time, but lacks range.

- Shoots 3 daggers. Damage is based on material tier.

Shortsword - still remains the same but has equip animation which lasts for ~1.5 seconds

- Hold out a shield which will block all incoming projectiles, and slightly reduces incoming melee damage.

Battleaxe - Wide swing deals lower damage but cleaves all enemies in a wide arc, pushing them away. Downswing hits only one enemy but deals much greater damage.

- Can dash forwards towards enemies.

Longsword - Has the longest equip time but also has the largest range.

- Attacking near the edge of its range will deal extra bonus damage.

Additionally, there are Legendary Swords.
