Weapon

General Information

Weapons are pieces of Category:Equipment in Albion Online.They are effectively the closest thing to "character classes" in Albion.

There are 18 distinct weapon trees, each with their own corresponding Mastery node on the Destiny Board. Each mastery or weapon tree in Albion Online, belong to one of three basic archetypes, as seen in the Destiny Board.

Weapon Trees by Archetype

Warrior Weapons

Warrior weapons are crafted at a Warrior's Forge of the appropriate level.

• Axe
• Sword
• Mace
• Hammer
• Crossbow
• War Gloves
• Shield

Hunter Weapons

Hunter weapons are crafted at a Hunter's Lodge of the appropriate level

• Bow
• Spear
• Nature Staff
• Dagger
• Quarterstaff
• Torch

Mage Weapons

Mage weapons are crafted at a Mage's Tower of the appropriate level

• Fire Staff
• Holy Staff
• Arcane Staff
• Frost Staff
• Cursed Staff
• Tome of Spells

Each weapon tree shares a defining set of active (first and second slots) and passive (fourth slot) abilities to choose from, and each specific weapon in that family has a unique third slot ability (bound to the E key by default) that makes it further stand out.

Weapons may be one- or two-handed, the former allowing use of a shield or other off-hand items, which provide a variety of stat modifiers. One-handed weapons cannot be dual-wielded, but certain two-handed weapons fill that role, such as Dagger Pair and Dual Swords.

Unlocking Weapons

In order to access a weapon tree, the correlating Destiny Board Mastery must be unlocked by using the weapons of the connected previous node. All players start with novice weapons similar to that of the Warrior archetype and may branch to the other archetypes and eventually weapon trees when they increase the mastery level.

• New Warriors are limited to Swords; Broadsword in particular, until tier 3.
• New Hunters are limited to Bows until tier 3.
• New Mages are limited to Fire Staffs until tier 3
