Magic weapons

For a sortable list of all available magic weapons, along with their stats for comparison, see List of magic weapons.

"Spell" redirects here. For NPCs with the Spell AI, see Spell AI NPCs.

Magic weapons are weapons dealing magic damage that consume mana with each use. Magic weapons are categorized into wands, magic guns, and spell books. There are several other magic weapons that do not fit into any of these types.

Note that minion- and sentry-summoning weapons, which also consume mana, are not considered magic weapons as they deal summon damage instead.

There are 75 magic weapons.

The following lists present all magic weapons, along with their damage and how to obtain them. The weapons are roughly ordered by their intended stage of game progression.
