👉 A connecting weapon, often referred to as a "linking weapon" or "combat link," is a versatile and adaptable tool used by various combatants to enhance their offensive and defensive capabilities. This weapon serves as a bridge between different weapons, allowing for seamless transitions in combat situations. It can be used to extend the reach of a primary weapon, such as transforming a short sword into a spear or a mace into a club, or it can act as a secondary weapon when the primary one is unavailable. By connecting multiple weapons, it provides tactical flexibility, enabling fighters to adapt quickly to changing battlefield conditions and exploit openings in their opponents' defenses.
