Weakness

Most monsters in SoulSplit as well as equipment have weaknesses, which can be taken advantage of to defeat monsters or defeat a player. Different weaknesses require the use of different attack styles and combat types.

Melee weaknesses
Melee weaknesses are those inflicted by the use of melee weapons, such as swords, daggers, spears, daggers, and more. Anything you use to physically hit your target with is categorized as a melee weapon - even a staff when not casting a spell.

Stab
Stab weaknesses are most vulnerable to daggers, rapiers, and spears, such as the Dragon dagger and Chaotic rapier, respectively.

Slash
Slash weaknesses are most vulnerable to swords, longswords, scimitars, halberds, and two-handed swords, such as the Chaotic longsword, Dragon scimitar, and Dragon halberd.

Crush
Crush weaknesses are most vulnerable to mauls, battleaxes, and some special weapons, like the Barrelchest anchor.

Magic weakness
Magic weaknesses are very generic, and refer to a weakness to any kind of magic attack. Magic attacks will be especially effective and more accurate. An example of a magic attack would be any offensive spell (Ice Barrage, Fire Blast, etc.) or effect spell (Enfeeble, Stun, Bind, etc.).

Ranged weakness
Ranged weaknesses are also rather generic, and refer to a weakness to any kind of ranged attack. This includes arrows, bolts, throwing darts, javelins, chinchompas, and any other method of attack using physical projectiles launched over a distance.
