The cavern air hangs thick and silent. Your torch flickers, casting long shadows that dance across the damp stone walls as you grip your Crude Sword tighter, listening for any sign of movement. Is that the skitter of claws on stone, or just your imagination running wild in anticipation of what lies ahead?
Hytale offers a staggering array of weapons. Whether you’re fresh off the raft with nothing but a handful of rocks, or a hardened adventurer prepping to raid the crypts of Orbis, there’s a tool of destruction for every situation and playstyle. From swift daggers to earth-shattering warhammers, let’s explore the arsenal Hytale places at your fingertips.
Decisions, decisions: How Many Weapons Are There in Hytale?
Choosing what to eat from an endless buffet can be paralyzing. The same is true in Hytale. Because Hytale is still in development, the official count of available weapons remains unconfirmed. Patches are constantly rolling out, adding content and refining the game.
However, from what I’ve seen in Creative Mode and across various community servers, there appear to be around 38 distinct weapons, spanning all material tiers: Crude, Copper, Iron, Mithril, Onyxium, and beyond. Unless you’re in Creative Mode or using mods, this is roughly what you can expect to find as you explore the world.
All Hytale Weapons and Types
Imagine your ideal fighting style: do you prefer to get up close and brawl, or snipe from a safe distance? Hytale’s armaments are divided into three main categories: melee, ranged, and magic. Melee and ranged weapons are fully functional, while magical weapons are still works in progress. The list below will be updated as new updates arrive:

How to Get Weapons in Hytale
Crafting remains the most reliable way to acquire weapons. As you collect resources like wood, stone, and various ores, you will gain access to better and more powerful weapons. The recipes above will help you keep track of everything.
Without a workbench, only basic tools can be crafted. As you progress, you can build a basic workbench, a Blacksmith’s Anvil, or even an Arcanist’s Workbench to craft magical weapons.
Besides crafting, can you find weapons in Hytale?
Yes, weapons can also be found as loot drops and by defeating enemies. Sometimes, enemies will drop their primary weapon when defeated. Chests containing rare loot can also be found while exploring dungeons and ruins, but this option includes a higher risk.
How to Repair Weapons in Hytale
Weapons degrade with use, so you can either discard them or use a repair kit. A repair kit requires 2 Linen Scraps, 1 Iron Ingot, and 1 Light Leather to craft.
Equip the repair kit and left-click. This will open a UI where you can see all weapons and tools,
