Best Weapons in Soulbound: Online
Soulbound: Online has 3 broad weapon type categories, and your choice shapes your relic pool and available abilities, not just your damage number: Swords strike in a fast arc for frequent hits and consistent DPS, ideal for weaving in and out of fights. Greatswords are slower but hit harder in a straight line with longer reach. Heavy Weapons (Hammers and Axes) pound the ground for reverberating aftershock damage, suited to stagger-heavy tank and vanguard play.
Top DPS swords: Drakkar and Mighty Cleaver (Epic rarity or better) are the current benchmarks, alongside Cursed Rapier for crit-focused builds. Mighty Cleaver is the official pick for Heavy Hit proc stacking in cleave DPS loadouts.
Top greatswords: Soul Hunter Spine at Legendary rarity edges out Drakkar once fully invested -- do not sell it early just because its item level looks lower than a sword you are using.
Top hammers: Oathmourne and Ferrox Greataxe both anchor stagger-heavy tank vanguard builds, while Fiery Jackhammer is the pick for elemental/burn-focused setups.
Since gear and cosmetic slots are separate, you can equip whichever weapon you want for stats while displaying a different weapon skin in the cosmetic slot -- just note you need to first equip a real weapon of the same type as the cosmetic you want to display.
