Weapon Types and their related stats

Renthur

Is there any reason for particular weapons to be used? Or is it always the speed ones used because it requires less tempering? Are the maximum stats for each weapon type higher or just the minimum?

Zagreus

There is, each weapon type has minimums which is all that matters.

Speed ones are used primarily because the dmg min is lower, meaning you can pump more into precision/speed as a result.

Oh, I hadn't considered that, thanks for the info.

Xenthos

They are going to be overhauled though. So this will change.
