Tier 1

Weapon	Base Strength	Max Strength	First Determined Seal	Second Determined Seal	Description
Bokoblin Arm					A skeletal arm that keeps moving even after it's severed from its body. It's kind of gross to strap it to your back, but it'll do in a pinch.
Boko Club					A crude Bokoblin club made to clobber small prey. It's essentially a stick.
Boomerang^?					This throwing weapon was originally used by the forest-dwelling Koroks. Its unique shape allows it to return after being thrown, but it's perfectly functional in melee combat, as well.
Lizalfos Arm^?					The arm of a Stalizalfos that continues to struggle even in death. You can feel it wiggling when you strap it to your back...
Lucky Ladle^?					A metal ladle that somehow always feels warm. You can almost smell the mouthwatering aroma of a hot meal on a cold day.
Soup Ladle					A kitchen implement often used for serving delicious soups. It was carved from the wood of a sturdy tree, so it actually packs quite the wallop.
Tree Branch					Wooden branches such as this are pretty common, but it's surprisingly well-balanced. It doesn't do much damage but can serve as a weapon in a pinch.

Tier 2

Weapon	Base Strength	Max Strength	First Determined Seal	Second Determined Seal	Description
Feathered Edge					Rito craftsmen forged this lightweight, double-edge sword so Rito warriors could soar into battle unhindered by its weight.
Lizal Boomerang^?					A curved sword favored by the Lizalfos. It can be used to attack directly or can reportedly be thrown like a boomerang.
Soldier's Broadsword					A sword brandished by the soldiers who protect Hyrule Castle. Its durable blade is well tuned for slaying monsters.
Spiked Boko Club					A reinforced Bokoblin club made to maximize damage. The sharpened bones jabbed into it make it a brutal weapon.
Training Sword^?					A wooden practice sword used by soldiers of the Hyrulean army. It has a decent weight to it. Gripping it takes you back to your early days of training.
Traveler's Sword					A very common sword often kept by travelers to fend off small beasts. It's fairly durable but a bit unreliable against monsters.
Zora Sword					The ornamentation that adorns this blade is a traditional Zora design. It's forged from a very durable and rust-proof metal.

Tier 3

Weapon	Base Strength	Max Strength	First Determined Seal	Second Determined Seal	Description
Forest Dweller's Sword					Koroks made this sword for Hylians. It's made of wood, so it isn't the best choice for head-on attacks. Its original intent was likely clearing vines to forge paths through forests.
Guardian Sword					A sword often wielded by Guardian Scouts. Its blue energy blade is a product of ancient technology.

Tier 4

Weapon	Base Strength	Max Strength	First Determined Seal	Second Determined Seal	Description
Dragonbone Boko Club					This Bokoblin club has been reinforced with fossilized bones to maximize clobbering potential. Only the brawniest of Bokoblins can manage its immense weight.
Knight's Broadsword					Knights of Hyrule carry this sword. This blade is highly valued thanks to its ease of use and high attack power.
Lizal Forked Boomerang^?					Blue Lizalfos in particular like this weapon. It has one more blade than the Lizal Boomerang to give it additional cutting power, and it still returns when thrown.
Lynel Sword					This Lynel-made sword was designed with smashing in mind rather than slicing. It's on the heavy side compared to what Hylians are used to, but it's very strong.

Tier 5

Weapon	Base Strength	Max Strength	First Determined Seal	Second Determined Seal	Description
Guardian Sword+					This Guardian sword has enhanced power over the standard model. Its cutting capabilities are improved.
Lizal Tri-Boomerang^?	35-41	73-79			More blades means more attack power! It can be used as a boomerang, but all those blades makes that a bit more dangerous. Carried by Black Lizalfos seasoned in battle.

Tier 6

Weapon	Base Strength	Max Strength	Description
Guardian Sword++	TBA	TBA	The abilities of this Guardian sword have been boosted to the maximum, as evidenced by its increase in size. It slices through armor like a hot knife through butter!
Master Sword^?	34	72	The legendary sword that seals the darkness. Its blade gleams with a sacred luster that can oppose the Calamity. Only a hero chosen by the sword itself may wield it.
Mighty Lynel Sword	TBA	TBA	This Lynel-made sword boasts more blades and more attack power. A skilled Lynel can draw this sword simply in passing and still cut a foe in two.
Prototype Ancient Short Sword^?	36-??	TBA	A prototype developed at the Royal Ancient Lab. The data obtained from the time-traveling Guardian accelerated research progress by decades.
Royal Broadsword	35-73	55-93	The Hyrulean royal family awards this sword to knights who achieved remarkable feats. A sword that balances strength and beauty as elegantly as this one is a rare find.
Royal Guard's Sword	37-75	51-89	A Sheikah-made replica of the sword that seals the darkness. It was made with ancient technology to oppose the Great Calamity.
Savage Lynel Sword	40-??	TBA	A brutal sword carried by white-haired Lynels. The savage blades are strong enough to cut down any foe, no matter how strong.
