Weapon requirements

Weapons have stat requirements, and the source says a weapon’s skill cannot be used if those requirements are unmet.

How it works

The weapon reference says all weapons have stat requirements to wield them effectively. It specifically states that a weapon’s skill cannot be used if its requirements are not met. The supplied passage does not list requirements for individual weapons, so their values cannot be compared here.

Read the supporting references

Selected source-supported records on Ashes of War, weapon requirements and scaling, attributes, armament upgrades, and talisman effects. This is a descriptive reference, not a complete catalog or effectiveness ranking. Guidance explains the referenced mechanics; it is not a tested damage ranking. Check the stated edition and source version before applying a patch-specific detail.
