Weapon

are recurring items in.

Weapons can be found in many places across Hyrule, most commonly in chests or dropped by enemies. A Short Sword will be also be obtainable outside Link's house when starting as Link or Yves, and a Dagger will be obtainable in the starting mini-dungeon of Hyrule Castle when starting as Zelda.

Link, Zelda, and Cadence can use a variety of weapons in Cadence of Hyrule. Some weapons, such as the Broadsword, Spear, and Flail, can be used by any of the three. The Dagger is only used by Zelda and Cadence, though Link and Yves can use the identical Short Sword. Any two characters on a save file who share a weapon type can share a weapon instance, but Daggers and Short Swords do not count for this purpose. In addition, each of the main three character has a special type of weapon only they can use- Link's Longsword, Zelda's Rapier, and Cadence's Greatshovel.

Weapons come in three main types- Enchantable, Glass, and Legendary. Enchantable weapons are the most diverse, and can be upgraded with different materials at a Great Fairy Fountain no matter what enchantment is currently on it. Glass weapons boast 3 points of damage, but will shatter and disappear if the player takes damage while wielding it. Legendary weapons are unique with only one copy existing per save file, and have powerful properties such as multiple enchantment effects, different special moves, or even armor piercing capabilities. Multiple copies of any enchantable or glass weapon can be obtained.
