The First Berserker: Khazan has dozens of weapons to choose from, split over three distinct weapon categories–Dual Wield, Greatswords, and Spears. These broad categories also define the potential to level their associated Skill Trees, which unlock a variety of moves and abilities. Weapons can be standalone, or part of a set. Since all weapons within a given category do the same damage numbers when at the same quality and level, the only real distinction is going to be any special attributes a weapon may have.
This guide has a small selection of some of the best weapons based on their fixed attribute, and their locations in The First Berserker: Khazan.
