Code Vein II Weapons
In Code Vein II, weapons define your combat approach more than almost any other piece of equipment. Each weapon type comes with its own attack patterns, strengths, weaknesses, and unique mechanics that shape how you engage enemies. Choosing the right weapon can mean the difference between controlling the battlefield and being overwhelmed, especially as enemy density and difficulty increase later in the game.
Bayonets
Bayonets are versatile weapons that allow you to switch seamlessly between close-range combat with the blade attached to the barrel and long-range combat using gunfire.
In addition to specialized formae that deal massive damage from a distance, bayonets also feature formae designed for close-quarters fighting. Mastery of this weapon type revolves around fluidly shifting between melee and ranged attacks as the situation demands.
Halberds
Halberds are heavy weapons featuring a blade mounted on a long shaft. They excel in mid-range combat, using their extended reach to support flexible tactics, from wide sweeping attacks that can hit multiple enemies at once to precise thrusts aimed at single targets.
By taking full advantage of their range, halberds can control the battlefield with broad overhead arcs and fast, lunging strikes that push enemies back and keep them at bay.
Hammers
Hammers are heavy weapons prized for their devastating single-hit damage and their ability to easily break enemy stances. They feature powerful techniques that slam down from mid-air or unleash shockwaves around the wielder, making them especially effective at turning the tide of battle—even when surrounded by multiple foes.
One-Handed Swords
One-Handed Swords are one of the most versatile weapon types in Code Vein II, making them an excellent choice for beginners and experienced players alike. They are easy to handle, feature fast combo attacks alongside long-reaching thrusts and spinning slashes.
In addition, this weapon category offers a wide range of available formaes, allowing you to adapt to any situation depending on how you combine them. Whether you focus on raw damage, elemental effects, or scaling with specific attributes, this weapon type provides flexible options that can fit nearly any character setup.
Rune Blades
Rune Blades are dual swords that float through the power of formae, allowing for acrobatic techniques seamlessly integrated with martial arts movements. They excel when paired with long-range attacks and ability-enhancing incantations, reaching their full potential when these elements are combined.
Twin Blades
Twin Blades focus on high mobility, allowing you to slip past enemy defenses and unleash rapid, deadly combos. They excel at inflicting wounds and pair exceptionally well with Drain Attacks, making them ideal for aggressive, hit-and-run combat.
Two-Handed Swords
Two-Handed Swords are heavy weapons that attack with a long blade. Their defining features are their extended reach and the immense power of a single strike. They deliver devastating blows using slashing formae like the downward strike, which increases in power and reach with a charge input, or the upward strike following a charge.
