👉 An item weapon, often referred to as a "weapon," is a type of consumable or non-consumable object in video games that provides offensive capabilities to the player. Unlike armor or shields, which protect rather than attack, item weapons enhance a character's ability to damage enemies. They can be categorized into melee weapons (like swords or axes) and ranged weapons (such as bows or crossbows), each offering different combat styles and strategies. These weapons typically have attributes like damage output, range, and possibly special effects or debuffs that affect gameplay dynamics. The choice of an item weapon can significantly influence a player's tactical approach in battles, making them a crucial aspect of gameplay design.
