Weapons

 are a core element of Mordhau, due to its emphasis on skill-based combat. Players can wield a variety of weapons, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Up to 3 weapons can be carried at any given time, or 6 in Horde mode, and the player is allowed to have multiple copies of a weapon if they wish. Many weapons also have an alternative mode, which could range anywhere from changing your grip on the weapon for different properties to throwing it as a ranged attack.

The weapons each do different amounts of damage depending on which part of the opponent's body is hit, and how well-armored that body part is. Damage is shown for each region of the body, with the first number being for an unarmored body part, the second number for lightly armored ones, third for medium armor, and fourth for heavy armor.

=One Handed= One-Handed weapons tend to deal less damage than Two-Handed weapons.

 * Although the Sledgehammer has an alt mode listed when viewed ingame, its reach is displayed as 0cm, and this alt mode cannot be accessed ingame.
 * The longsword's ability to unscrew and throw its pommel is a reference to the End Them Rightly meme, popularized by the YouTuber Skallagrim. Landing a killing blow with this pommel throw will also grant an achievement of the same name, though this is difficult to pull off due to its long windup, minimal damage, and the fact that it can only be performed once per longsword.
