A martial weapon is any weapon or offhand that aids a martialist profession. Typical martial weapons are swords, axes, hammers, bows, daggers, spears and scythes. The only martial offhands in the game are shields, excluding Xun Rao's Quill which is described as a "parrying dagger" but functions identical to shields. Martials can also make use of Caster weapons (if they are properly modded) and focus items. Players can carry up to 4 different weapon sets that can be swapped with F1-F4. Players often choose to place different preferred weapons in different weapon sets, as well as a longbow or flatbow for pulling monsters, or a staff for running, if required. Depending on your skillbar and the expected opponents, consider the following upgrades:
