Weapons | Absolver Wiki

Weapons are pieces of equipment in Absolver, that you can equip at a cost of shards. They allow you to access new combat decks, which in the case of swords has different moves unique to it. Three weapons can be found from Bosses, and all others can be found through random drops in the Combat Trials and bought in the essence shop. You can check out for an overview of weapons and armor.

Weapons also provide access to cut damage, which is reduced by a different defensive stat than the blunt damage that bare handed moves deal. Cut damage deals chip damage through the enemy's guard, this can be reduced by the opposing player by equipping a weapon themselves.

Golden weapon variants can be bought from the essence shop, they are however functionally the same as their non-gold counterparts.

Weapons

Folding Back

Players can fold back their own weapon to regain a portion of the shard they spent to summon the weapon, depending on the remaining durability. This can also be useful when being close to be disarmed, as it will deny the enemy from picking up the weapon. Notice that players cannot block while performing the folding animation.
