Weapons
Weapons in Fatekeeper are described in dev material as echoes of old traditions: each piece carries character, history, and a distinct feel. The Druid can equip two weapon sets at the same time and swap between them on demand, which gives a single build access to several melee ranges and damage profiles.

Inspectable Items
Weapons can be inspected up close. Lore engravings, hilt details, and weight imbalances may reveal recipes, build hints, or environmental interactions. The Weapons, Relics and Forgotten Arts dev blog calls inspection out as a core part of the loot loop.
Coatings and Throwables
Weapon Vials and Oils - apply elemental effects to a weapon for several swings.
Handbombs - thrown alchemy items.
Throwing Daggers - daggers that boomerang back through a skill-tree node.
Open Questions
Pre-launch material confirms the weapon classes above. Specific named weapons, rarities, set bonuses, and unique relic-class weapons have not been disclosed. The list will expand once items are seen in the Early Access build.
