Swords
When it comes to daggers and swords, swords are more powerful than daggers and some grant extra HP, making them more suitable for Infantry units.
Although only Infantry and Cavalry can equip swords, these two kinds of units are two of the main attacking units in the game, and you’ll find that your chances of obtaining swords throughout your adventure is quite high.
Seal Guardian
Special Effect
ATK +2%, DEF +1%
Although the special effect is the same as the Archer’s Bloody Melody, placing this sword in the hands of an Infantry or Cavalry unit is another matter. In addition to the ATK granted, melee units can benefit more from the additional survivability granted by this sword’s DEF stat when engaging in battle. So, although the special effect doesn’t have any remarkable features, it’s still very suitable for use in melee combat. This item is better than most other swords, and is especially suitable for heroes who heal themselves when attacking.

Frostrend
Special Effect
ATK +2%. When attacking, 25% chance to reduce enemy's Mobility by 2 after battle. Lasts 1 turn.
This special effect is very suitable for PVP, as reducing movement can essentially be the same as breaking guard effects, especially when this sword is used by Emerick.
If Emerick slows an enemy with this sword, his talent will immobilize the enemy further and prevent them from being guarded.

Dragonslayer Gram
Special Effect
ATK & HP +1.5%. When battling against Dragons, ATK, DEF, and MDEF increase by 10%.
It's a pity that this dragonslaying sword is useless against the Ice Dragon, as you can't kill the Ice Dragon with melee attacks.

Blood Sword Hrunting
Special Effect
ATK +1%. 50% chance to deal extra fixed damage after attacking (Damage = 0.5x Hero's ATK).
An essential weapon for Emperor Bernhardt. Sword Dance + Rupture + Blood Sword Hrunting produce great results.
Bernhardt with Blood Sword Hrunting and Bernhardt without Blood Sword Hrunting are essentially two different heroes.
Score
PVE: 10 (When used by Bernhardt)

Spears
Spears can be used by Lancers, Cavalry, and Fliers.
Spears are very special weapons. Apart from Last Knight, which rewarded from the Path of Light event, and other more basic spears, the other three major spears are essentially tied to certain classes or individual heroes.
Last Knight
Special Effect
ATK +2%. Before attacking, 25% chance to reduce enemy's ATK & INT by 20%. Lasts 1 turn.
This weapon is usually the first SSR weapon most players will obtain.
A practical weapon in PVE, it can greatly reduce boss damage on the next turn while allowing the attacker to take less damage when attacking. You can use this weapon even until the later stages of the game.

Yggdrasil Branch
Special Effect
DEF +2%. In battle, ignores 3% of enemy's DEF.
The strongest Lancer tank weapon. Both of the special effects are particularly good for tanks.

Cursed Lance
Special Effect
When attacking, DEF and MDEF increase by 3%. After battle, has a 25% chance to silence the enemy’s active skills and render them unable to be healed for 1 round.
This special effect works very well with Luna.
This weapon’s special effect matches perfectly with her Wind Spiral skill, and the chance of silencing enemies is very effective in both PVE and PVP.

PVE: 10 (When used with Luna)
PVP: 10
Recommended Heroes: Luna
Blue Star
Special Effect
For every block moved before entering battle, ATK, DEF, and MDEF increase by 1% (up to 3%).
The strongest Cavalry weapon, it is suitable for any knight, especially Leon.
Fliers can also use this weapon, but you may find that axes serve them better on the battlefield.
