Divine Weapons

Reconciled Fain Solas as shipped at Early Access launch (was: planned)
Divine weapons are the gods' instruments, granted to the Twelve Chosen as the only effective tools against Nyx and the Nuemera infestation. The full system planned for the Early Access roadmap is eight weapons across four Elements, paired as one melee and one ranged weapon per element. Juno carries one melee and one ranged weapon at a time and can swap loadouts mid-combat. As of the May 2026 Early Access launch build, four Divine weapons are obtainable in playable content, and two more weapon classes have been publicly named but not yet shipped.
Four Divine weapons are obtainable in the v0.1.0 launch build. The first two are granted during the prologue and form Juno's starting kit; the third and fourth are acquired later in Chapter 1 through the Lyhamn settlement quest chain.
Weapon | Type | Damage | Patron God | Acquisition |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Claio Solas | Melee (Sword) | Slashing | Vasia | Prologue starter weapon, given alongside Bogha Solas during the prologue tutorial. |
Bogha Solas | Ranged (Crossbow) | Piercing | Vasia | Prologue starter ranged weapon, paired with Claio Solas. |
Ortrom Solas | Melee (Hammer) | Blunt | Basil | Awarded during the Branching Out subquest of Unyielding Solidarity in the Red Forest area of Koro Valley. |
Fain Solas | Ranged (Chakram) | Slashing | Basil | Found in Koro Valley - Hollow Incline during the A Sneak Peak Chronicle. Picking it up is a climactic beat of Unyielding Solidarity; Juno uses it to manipulate a Nyx orb at the Silver Peak summit. |
Each launch weapon has its own animation set, combo string, and Growth Chart skill tree. Skill points are weapon-specific; switching weapons mid-fight does not consume them.
Two more Divine weapon classes have been confirmed by the developer as planned for future Early Access patches but are not in the May 2026 launch build:
Weapon | Class | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Spear | Melee, Pierce | Long, fast pierce-type melee with both single-target pokes and wide-area combo finishers. Developer-confirmed but unshipped. |
Kama | Chain-sickle | Sickle on a chain, used both for combat and for traversal-style puzzles. Developer-confirmed but unshipped. |
The remaining pair of the planned eight has not been publicly named. They are expected to pair to the two yet-unrevealed Elements (one melee, one ranged each). Two additional element gods beyond the gods currently in code are also expected to surface in later chapters. This article will be updated when those weapons and gods enter the build.
Equip exactly one melee weapon and one ranged weapon.
Each weapon is locked to a specific element, which determines the matching Divine Art.
Mid-combat weapon switching briefly slows time, letting you change loadouts without losing the active combo.
Each weapon has an independent Growth Chart skill tree. Skill points are weapon-specific; switching weapons mid-fight does not consume them.
Weapons accept gem slots; see Gem Crafting for the customization layer.
Damage type determines how a Divine weapon interacts with armored or shielded Nuemera:
Damage Type | Carriers | Role |
|---|---|---|
Slashing | Claio Solas, Fain Solas | Balanced, effective against unarmored enemies, moderate stagger contribution. Fain Solas adds returning-projectile geometry that suits puzzle redirection. |
Piercing | Bogha Solas | Bypasses light armor and excels at single-target threats and flying enemies. |
Blunt | Ortrom Solas | Strongest stagger contributor; reliable against shielded Nuemera at the cost of slower recovery on missed swings. |
Element matters as much as damage type: pairing a Divine weapon with a Divine Art that exploits an enemy's elemental weakness can outperform raw stat scaling. See Combat System for the offensive loop.
Divine Armor is the partner piece to the Divine weapons. Like the weapons, it is granted by the gods to Chosen, and it is what protects them from Nuemera attacks. Both Valor candidates (combat-focused Chosen) and Wise candidates (support Chosen) wear Divine Armor.
The armor is highly individual in appearance. Its core component is a metal halo behind the wearer's head, decorated with white material and blue gems. Many Chosen seen in the prologue have additional pauldrons; Juno and Filia O' Marmis do not, but the in-game story has not yet revealed why.
Mechanically, the Divine Armor provides four gem slots (Cordis, Armis, Aegis, and Decoris), each tuned to a different stat axis. See Gem Crafting for the slot system.
Other Chosen wield Divine weapons of similar types but with different appearances. Dahmon, the leader of the original counterattack and the playable character of the prologue, wields a sword-type Divine weapon visually distinct from Claio Solas. Other Chosen are seen using the Hammer form in prologue scenes. The visual variation reinforces that each Chosen receives a Divine weapon individually shaped to them rather than a shared armory.
