When you’re not rebuilding your hometown (or waiting for a chest to open) in Elder Scrolls: Blades you’ll almost certainly be battling enemies in a bunch of identikit dungeons.
As the game increases in difficulty, you’ll likely want to ensure you have the best gear available to you. So, to help you get equipped, we’re going to run a guide series on the best equipment you can get in the game.
In this guide, we’re going to provide a list of all of the weapons in the game right now so you can decide which one is the best for you. We’ll include their name, damage score, and cost.
Please note: This guide is a work-in-progress. We’ll continue to update it as we uncover more weapons.
Elder Scrolls: Blades – Weapon Types
There are three different types of weapons in Blades that each play in very different ways: Heavy, Light, and Versatile. Let’s take a look at each in more detail.
Heavy Weapons
As you can probably guess, Heavy weapons require two hands to wield and are slow to swing but deal enormous damage with each hit.
They don’t benefit as much from combo attacks but critical hits will deal immense damage and they have solid block ratings – which is great news as you won’t be able to use a shield.
| Weapon | Damage | Damage Type | Price | Material Cost |
| Iron Battleaxe | 30 | Cleaving | 440 | 10 Iron Ingots |
| Iron Greatsword | 30 | Slashing | 440 | 10 Iron Ingots |
| Iron Warhammer | 30 | Bashing | 440 | 10 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Battleaxe | 45 | Cleaving | 990 | 10 Steel Ingots / 7 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Greatsword | 45 | Slashing | 990 | 10 Steel Ingots / 7 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Warhammer | 45 | Bashing | 990 | 10 Steel Ingots / 7 Iron Ingots |
| Silver Battleaxe | 63 | Cleaving | 1,606 | 10 Silver Ingots / 7 Steel Ingots |
| Silver Greatsword | 63 | Slashing | 1,606 | 10 Silver Ingots / 7 Steel Ingots |
| Silver Warhammer | 63 | Bashing | 1,606 | 10 Silver Ingots / 7 Steel Ingots |
| Orcish Battleaxe | 79 | Cleaving | 2,912 | 10 Orichalcum Ingots / 7 Steel Ingots / 6 Iron Ingots |
| Orcish Greatsword | 79 | Slashing | 2,912 | 10 Orichalcum Ingots / 7 Steel Ingots / 6 Iron Ingots |
| Orcish Warhammer | 79 | Bashing | 2,912 | 10 Orichalcum Ingots / 7 Steel Ingots / 6 Iron Ingots |
Light Weapons
Light weapons benefit the most from combo attacks but don’t deal very much damage with each strike. You also won’t see a huge difference on a critical strike.
Still, if you like dishing out hit after hit, building that combo metre up, these are the weapons for you.
| Weapon | Damage | Damage Type | Price | Material Cost |
| Iron Dagger | 18 | Slashing | 330 | 8 Iron Ingots |
| Iron Hand Axe | 18 | Cleaving | 330 | 8 Iron Ingots |
| Iron Light Hammer | 18 | Bashing | 330 | 8 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Dagger | 27 | Slashing | 737 | 8 Steel Ingots / 5 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Hand Axe | 27 | Cleaving | 737 | 8 Steel Ingots / 5 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Light Hammer | 27 | Bashing | 737 | 8 Steel Ingots / 5 Iron Ingots |
| Silver Dagger | 36 | Slashing | 1,199 | 8 Silver Ingots / 5 Steel Ingots |
| Silver Hand Axe | 36 | Cleaving | 1,199 | 8 Silver Ingots / 5 Steel Ingots |
| Silver Light Hammer | 36 | Bashing | 1,999 | 8 Silver Ingots / 5 Steel Ingots |
| Orcish Dagger | 45 | Slashing | 2,184 | 8 Orichalcum Ingots / 5 Steel Ingots / 4 Iron Ingots |
| Orcish Hand Axe | 45 | Cleaving | 2,184 | 8 Orichalcum Ingots / 5 Steel Ingots / 4 Iron Ingots |
| Orcish Light Hammer | 45 | Bashing | 2,184 | 8 Orichalcum Ingots / 5 Steel Ingots / 4 Iron Ingots |
Versatile Weapons
Versatile weapons are the most intriguing of the three weapon types in Elder Scrolls: Blades. While they don’t benefit from critical hits as Heavy or combo attacks as Little, they have the advantage of being wielded in one hand with a shield or two handed for extra damage. Hence the name: Versatile.
| Weapon | Damage | Damage Type | Price | Material Cost |
| Iron Longsword | 26 | Slashing | 385 | 9 Iron Ingots |
| Iron War Axe | 26 | Cleaving | 385 | 9 Iron Ingots |
| Iron Mace | 26 | Bashing | 385 | 9 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Longsword | 38 | Slashing | 862 | 9 Steel Ingots / 6 Iron Ingots |
| Steel War Axe | 38 | Cleaving | 862 | 9 Steel Ingots / 6 Iron Ingots |
| Steel Mace | 38 | Bashing | 862 | 9 Steel Ingots / 6 Iron Ingots |
| Watcher’s Longsword | 48 | Slashing | – | – |
| Silver Longsword | 60 | Slashing | 1,401 | 9 Silver Ingots / 6 Steel Ingots |
| Silver War Axe | 60 | Cleaving | 1,401 | 9 Silver Ingots / 6 Steel Ingots |
| Silver Mace | 60 | Bashing | 1,401 | 9 Silver Ingots / 6 Steel Ingots |
| Orcish Longsword | 73 | Slashing | 2,548 | 9 Orichalcum Ingots / 6 Steel Ingots / 5 Iron Ingots |
| Orcish War Axe | Cleaving | 9 Orichalcum Ingots / 6 Steel Ingots / 5 Iron Ingots | ||
| Orcish Mace | 73 | Bashing | 2,548 | 9 Orichalcum Ingots / 6 Steel Ingots / 5 Iron Ingots |
