Weapons are hero-specific gear that focuses on hero damage as it's primary stat. Most heroes wields a single weapon but there are some who are able to wield two.

Weapons can be Standard (normal types of stats and features) or Unique (Having unique shot types or M.O.D.S.). Most Standard weapons can be obtained through normal loot drops while Unique weapons are acquired through specific locations or vendors though there are some exceptions.

There are a variety of weapons for each heroes to use for combat. And also cosmetic purposes.

Weapon Uses

Alongside the primary stat of 20px Hero Damage, the secondary stat could either be 20px Hero Health or 20px Ability Power. While a weapon's primary uses is in its Hero Damage stat which allows gear loadouts that focuses on hero DPS, there are also gear loadouts that only uses it's secondary stats such as Ability Power, disregarding the need for Hero Damage as the loadouts only focuses on the heroes' abilities.

It's certainly possible to have loadouts that focus on utilizing both primary and secondary stat. By which Hero Health and Hero Damage is a loadout most utilized.
