Please forgive the crudeness of this thread, my first attempt at making something like this. I've been really enjoying the hell out of the game so far though, and I feel like it deserved more exposure and discussion. It's surprisingly fun, and has a lot of content and a good challenge. If this is your first time hearing about it, think about checking it out if you like a metroidvania style game.

Weapons
In Unepic you will find more than 100 different weapons to hit and slay anything that crosses your path.
A single weapon is not good for every type of enemy. Depending on the monster you face, one weapon type may be much better than others.
These are the weapons that you can master:
Swords: they are used to attack monsters that can bleed, as they cause deep wounds in flesh. However, they are much less effective against monsters that don't bleed or things made of iron or wood, like barrels or armored foes.
Daggers: Lethal against all bleeding monsters if attacked from behind, as both the damage and critical hit chance are multiplied. Moreover your attacks are much faster since daggers are the lightest weapon type you can find.
Maces: They are meant to smash. Especially effective against skeletons, rotten barrels and armored monsters.
Axes: Axes are a mixture of sword and mace. They cause cuts to fleshy monsters, and their hits are strong enough to penetrate solid objects. Their main drawback is their low speed.
Polearms: Their biggest advantage is that they have the longest reach of all the melee weapons.
They are especially useful against monsters that are best kept afar.
Bows: Obviously are used to attack from long distances, though they are not very effective against armored monsters.
Wands: wands shoot all types of magic bolts.
Their effects are very destructive and they cast quickly, but they have limited charges.
Magic
In unepic you will find tomes of magic. There are currently 70 different spell effects that you can take advantage of in the following item types:
Potions: You just have to take out the cap and drink it, then you character will receive a positive magic effect. They can be used once, but you can reuse the remaining empty vial to create more potions.
Scrolls: Unroll it and then read it, the spell within will be cast.
They also can be used only once because the scroll disintegrates when the spell is freed.
Rings: Wearing them grants you special abilities or enhances your stats.
Unlike other games, in Unepic you can wear 8 rings, one per finger.
Tomes: Tomes teach you spells that you can use whenever you need.
They cover all magic types. To learn them you will need a minimum level in the corresponding magic skill.
Recipes: They are documents that teach you how to create potions. Thanks to these recipes you will be able to create as many potions as you need. Each recipe needs special ingredients that some monsters drop when killed.
Magic Weapons: Some weapons have special powers or spirits that live within that make them unique.
Their names appear in blue or orange in your inventory.
Artifacts: They are magic objects of great power that can be activated. These are extremely rare.
