How Weapons Work

Weapons are a primary mode of making and using attacks in this game, and are required for the use of abilities like Maneuvers and some melee oriented spells. Many martial classes (such as those from the Warrior and Initiator).
In the most basic terms, Weapons use the Attack Action | ◈-◈◈◈, using a 1d20 and adding the attack's Attribute Modifier (usually STR / Strength, sometimes DEX / Dexterity or something else). If you are 'proficient' in the weapon, you also add your Proficiency Bonuses.

Weapon Properties

All Weapons have similar properties, and gain from different types or from weapon keywords.

Basic Weapon Properties

Name

The name of the weapon, which varies depending on naming conventions and language.

Cost

The cost of the weapon. Includes the basic cost of making it and/or other fees or time it's original crafter spent making it. Players who Craft or can spend half or the full gold cost to decrease the crafting time.

Damage Dice

The damage the weapon does, and the type or types it does.

Base Crit Stats

A weapon's base critical strike statistics. The first number (+10 or +9) is how much an attack roll needs to be above a target's AC to critically strike. The second number (nat20 or nat19-20) is also a critical strike chance, rolling said number on naturally on a dice. It also carries the extra caveat of turning a miss, even with a higher AC, into a basic hit.
The last number (x2 or x3) is a damage multiplier for when a weapon critically strikes. 2d6 would become 4d6 or 2d6*2 , depending on the rule you are going with. If the naturally rolled crit is over the +#'d crit (or there are multiple degrees of critical striking, such as being +20 over the AC, plus a natural crit), the critical multi scales multiplicatively (e.g, 8d6 or 2d6*4 )

Weight

An item's base (and modified) weight, for the sake of Carrying Capacity and Bulk.

Weapon Group(s)

Any All Weapon Groups the weapon would be a part of. Many features, talents, and effects use this to give proficiency or special effects to those who wield said group of weapons.

Properties

Keywords (and paranthesies for specific effects or numerical values associated with them).

Specific Properties

Things that are listed on specific weapon pages, and aren't listed here.

Weapon Type

Also on this page, though it is how weapons are sorted. Weapon types indicate how a weapon functions and what it's primary attribute of use is.
Melee weapons can only be used on targets within 5 ft (+ Reach's values, if any) and use Strength.
Ranged weapons can be used at a distance, equal to a number of eat in the Range paratheses (if any). Attacks made in melee with a ranged weapons, or attacks made in the second numerical bracket with weapons, imposes Disadvantage on attacks. Additionally, Ranged weapons primarily scale of Dexterity.
Thrown weapons count as both ranged and melee weapons, scaling off either Strength or Dexterity (player's choice, but both attack damage must use the same stat). They often have less range than pure ranged weapons, but do not impose disadantage when using them in melee.

Item Power Level / Magic Power Level

The power level, following the same general rules from the corresponding Rule. Helps give an idea of how powerful, or what level/tier of play the item is expected to be obtained at within reason.

Composition

What the item is made of or can be made of. Primarily for crafting, but can be used other things purposes.

Rarity

The frequency of finding the weapon at any given juncture. Most weapons are basic, but some, such as Nets, are a little rarer.

Additional Effects

Certain effects, granted by the Weapon itself or via Keywords.

Weapon Keywords (and Enchants)

Weapon keywords are traits that multiple weapons have innately or are given via ability, crafting, enchants, or special effect. Weapon Enchants work the same way, though they are more specific and a result of crafting and rarity. For weapons, keywords are a baseline component whereas enchants come after the fact, and help weapons scale in magical power to Abilities, like spells.
Defer to each Keyword/Trait or Enchant for specifics.

Reflavored Weapons

Not every weapon needs an exact statblock to be used in CHASE. Some weapons from specific regions or that have specific origins can be replaced or used with the basic, universal version found on the table above. Likewise, some weapons with popular variants will be named on the pages
