Summary

Players will spend the majority of their time inMyth of Empiresengaging in PvE combat encounters. These encounters differ from the PvP encounters that also feature in the game. Enemieswithin PvEmay well be harder or easier than real-life opponents, but they will always be easier to predict.

With this in mind, players have access to a wide array of weapons across the Eastern Continent that includes one-handed, two-handed, and ranged weapons each with their own categories. For example, a one-handed weapon can be a sword, axe, or mace. The range of weapons can make it overwhelming when choosing a weapon. So before spending precious materials crafting a weapon, check if any of these are suitable.

7Shuttle Spear

A Steep Learning Curve

TheShuttle Spearis the best-throwingweapon in the game. These weapons have a range between 14 and 16 meters and are primarily used when enemies are just out of range of one-handed or two-handed weapons but too close for ranged weapons. A hardweapon to master, but if players can master the aiming part then this is a very effective weapon.

This weapon will be very useful in fighting in major battles with multiple allies and enemies as this can nullify the learning curve by firing the weapon at a major group to increase the chances of hitting. These situations are more likely to arise in PvE.

6Black Iron Tower Shield

Deal And Prevent Damage

When combined with an effective one-handed weapon, theBlack Iron Tower Shieldcan be the perfect weapon to complement it. Becoming available earlier than most on the list, at level 51, thisshield is suitedto major crowd control as it can block an astonishing amount of damage.

Also, it can be used as a secondary weapon against multiple enemies at once and can be used before or after swings of players' main weapon depending on the desired outcome. This tool will be especially useful against the more predictable enemies of PvE.

5Meteoric Crossbow

Very High Damage

Offering the highest single damage of any weapon on this list, theMeteoric Crossbowcan deal up to nearly 1000 damage if everything goes right. There is an element of high-risk, high reward as the reload time of 5 seconds can mean major punishment if shots are missed consistently.

With arange of 49 metersand a slow reload time, this crossbow should be used to defend a position. In PvE combat, it should be possible to pick off enemies moving towards you with good consistency.

4Black Iron Axe

Pure Power

Offering thehighest damage outputof any one-handed weapon, theBlack Iron Axecan deal as much as 863 damage and that is without any potential modifier.

Players will need to gather 2 Steel ingots, 3 Black Iron ingots and 4 Yunite ingots. The latter of these will be the hardest to acquire for players as they don’t become available until level 60. All that will be left then is to combine the ingredients using an advanced weapon bench.

3Quake Hammer

Smash Enemies Out Of The Way

The Quake Hammer is a weapon that will specialize against heavy opponents. This one-handed mace has two multiplies to help players do this: broken armor and broken weapons. This means that theQuake Hammerdeals massive damage with its swings whilst also limiting the enemy’s ability to deal damage by breaking their weapon.

As a bonus, this weapon will also be more effective in siege combat than most other weapons a player can carry on their person. Although not a replacement for traditional siege weapons, it can be useful when trying to bring down lower-level enemy defenses.

2Dual Crescent Halberd

Perfect For Horseback

Riding on horseback can often be the best way to engage enemies before safely retreating to avoid damage. TheDual Crescent Halberdsuits this style well. It can be used for massive sweeping attacks that hit multiple enemies at once.

Its ability to hit enemies at a longer distance also makes it very suitable for combat while on foot. This weapon also has a 200% multiplier on shield breaking and is, therefore, very useful against heavy opponents with large armor and shields.

The first of these is theMeteoric Blades’sdual damage modes, meaning that this weapon can slash targets to make them bleed as well as pierce through heavy armor.
