*Characters can use a different weapon or weapons on a [[weapon swap]].
*The weapon or weapons can be changed with a keybind.
 
==Attacks and Spells==
The weapon damage applies to attacks only. {{c|mod|%Increased spell damage}} affects spells, but will not increase the weapon damage.
 
==Weapon Damage modifiers==
 
===Physical Damage===
* Modifiers like {{c|mod|% Increased Physical Damage}} and {{c|mod|Adds X To Physical Damage}} are applied directly to the weapon. They are not [[global]] modifiers.
*The minimum and maximum damage are added to the base weapon damage first. Then all the increased damage modifiers on the weapon apply.
*Modifiers that increase physical damage and add to physical damage that are not on the weapon are calculated differently.
 
===Elemental and Chaos Damage===
* [[Elemental]] and [[Chaos]] damage are flat added weapon damage.
 
===Other Damage Modifiers===


* {{c|mod|%Increased Minion Damage}}  For more info See [[Minion]]s.
All weapons have certain base stats: [[physical damage]], [[critical strike chance]], [[attack speed]]. These can be directly modified with [[local]] modifiers. Additionally, [[melee]] weapons have [[weapon range]]s, which affect the distance from which they can physically [[strike]] enemies.


==Attack speed modifiers==
Weapons may be of a certain archetype:
{{c|mod|%Increased attack speed}} is added to the base attacks per second of the weapon. [[Attack speed]] modifiers that are not on the weapon are calculated differently.
* Attack weapon: only rolls local modifiers for [[attack]]s.
** [[Warstaves]] are an example of an attack weapon subcategory.
* Caster weapon: can roll both attack and [[spell]] modifiers.
** [[Rune dagger]]s are an example of a caster weapon subcategory.
* Summoner/minion weapon: can roll attack, spell, and [[minion]] modifiers.
