| Name | Type | Description | Stats | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Traditional Chinese Melee Weapons | Bladed Melee | The core melee side of Wuchang's arsenal draws on the martial tradition of late Ming China, spanning single blades, twin-blade pairings, polearms, and guandao-class weapons favored in historical Chinese wushu. | Style: Flowing melee combos Reach: Short to long melee Focus: Stance and timing-based attacks | Core combat tool used throughout the campaign |
| Black-Powder Firearm | Ranged Firearm | The ranged counterpart to the blade, modeled on the black-powder matchlock and pistol technology of 17th-century China. | Style: Ranged gunplay Reach: Long range Role: Poke, punish, and ranged pressure | Paired with the melee weapon in the hybrid arsenal |
| Hybrid Weapon System | Weapon Transformation | The signature identity of the game's combat: a weapon system that unifies the melee blade and the firearm into one flow, letting the player switch stances mid-fight so a single string can begin as a sweeping slash and close with a gunshot. | Switching: Melee to ranged mid-combo Arity: One flexible arsenal, multiple stances | Signature combat mechanic of the protagonist |
| The Plague-Born Arms | Supernatural Weaponry | Enemies and bosses corrupted by the plague wield arms twisted by supernatural force rather than conventional craftsmanship. | Origin: Supernatural corruption Users: Plague-cursed elites and bosses Threat: High | Wielded by corrupted adversaries across the campaign |
| Single Chinese Saber (Dao) | Single-Blade Melee | The back-curved, single-edged jian-style and dao sabers common in Ming martial arts, favored for swift, aggressive slash chains. | Style: Aggressive slash chains Reach: Medium melee Stamina Cost: Moderate | Standard stance unlocked early in the campaign |
| Twin Swords | Dual-Blade Melee | A paired-blade stance letting Wuchang alternate strikes between two hands for longer, faster flurries at the cost of individual hit weight. | Style: Rapid flurries Reach: Short-medium Stamina Cost: High sustain | Mid-game stance gained from a melee weapon family |
| Guandao Polearm | Polearm Melee | The curved-blade guandao, the heavy polearm of Chinese officers, delivering wide sweeping arcs and powerful overhead cleaves that hold reach advantage over shorter blades. | Style: Sweeping arcs and cleaves Reach: Long melee Stamina Cost: High per swing | Signature polearm stance featured in late-game zones |
| Spear | Polearm Melee | A straight thrusting spear offering poke-and-space control and quick recovery, letting Wuchang dictate distance before switching to the firearm. | Style: Poke-and-space control Reach: Long Recovery: Fast | Available from a dedicated melee stance |
| Staff (Bonze Staff) | Blunt Melee | A blunt staff framed around the monastic fighting arts, blending defensive sweeps with quick recoveries and combo extension. | Style: Defensive sweeps and staggers Reach: Medium-long Focus: Posture and stagger | Alternate melee family with its own stance |
| Matchlock Pistol | Single-Hand Firearm | A single-shot matchlock pistol as a compact firearm stance, trading raw damage for speed and ease of weaving into melee strings. | Style: Quick sidearm shots Reload: Fast Range: Short-mid | Compact firearm stance paired with blade work |
| Musket Rifle | Long Firearm | A longer matchlock musket delivering a heavier single shot at greater range, with a slower reload that demands careful spacing. | Style: Heavy single-shot powder Reload: Slow Range: Long | High-reward firearm stance for spacing builds |
