👉 A support weapon, also known as an assistive or utility weapon, is a type of melee weapon in video games that provides non-lethal or utility benefits to the player rather than causing lethal damage. Unlike primary weapons designed for combat and killing, support weapons enhance gameplay by offering abilities such as healing allies, buffing the player's stats, or disrupting enemy attacks. They are often used to create strategic advantages, aid in overcoming difficult challenges, or simply to provide a sense of empowerment and control within the game world.
