Combat identity

Great Sword is one of Moonlighter 2's four main weapon families, built around heavier attacks and deliberate timing.

This identity favors heavy attacks and deliberate timing. Compare reach, attack commitment, recovery, and group control in the version you are playing.

Documented special mechanic

The cited official overview confirms this weapon family and its broad playstyle but does not provide a separate special-attack description or numerical statistics.

A repeatable comparison test

  • Use the same familiar encounter for each weapon being compared.
  • Begin with the shortest safe sequence and add commitment only when recovery remains reliable.
  • Keep armor and the major combat path unchanged while comparing the weapon itself.
  • Record the game version before using the result as build advice.

Statistics coverage

The current official sources do not provide a complete damage, speed, upgrade-cost, or material table. This overview does not label an unsupported number or tier ranking as fact.
