Halberd is a Uncommon halberd-class melee weapon in Windrose. Long enough to keep enemies at bay, and sharp enough to make them stay there.
Halberds are two-handed long-reach Crude weapons that scale with Strength. Halberds cannot Perfect Block, so builds rely on spacing, long pokes, and dodge-punishes rather than parry timing.

Upgrading raises the item level (and ATK) in bands, each with its own material cost. Leveling from 1 to 15 is the standard path for every melee weapon before ascension.

Entry halberd with long reach and high Crude damage against plate. Upgrade to Sturdy Halberd or Plague Halberd for stronger effects.
Lead with dodges because halberds cannot Perfect Block. Long-reach pokes during enemy recovery frames are the bread-and-butter pattern; heavy swings are your punish tool when the enemy whiffs.
Strength-scaling weapons pull from the Strength and Mastery branches of the Talent System. Relevant picks include talents that boost Crude damage, two-handed melee damage, posture break on staggered enemies, and stamina-efficient heavy attacks. Strength weapons also pair well with the Crusher talent branch when it is available as a training option.
See the Talent System article for the current list of unlockable talents and their exact bonus values. Respeccing talents costs an in-game currency, so early-game branch commitments tend to lock in weapon pairings for the rest of the playthrough.
