Melee Weapons

This is a list of melee weapons in Valfaris:
Weapon 	Unlock Method 	Description 	Upgrades
Therion's Own	Unlocked - Start of Game 	This melee weapon gives a small boost to energy you get from melee attacks. Overall, the boost is minimal and you get energy rather quickly so I don't think this is a very useful weapon to keep using once you unlock better weapons. 	
*3 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*6 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*7 Blood Metal & 1 Blood of Valfaris: Increased power & range
The Bastard 	Unlocked - Landing Pad in secret 3. After you defeat the dire hound in the room after you ride up the steam, enter the room to the right of the dire hound. 	The Bastard is more powerful per attack than Therion's Own. I suggest just switching to it immediately once you get it. As a bonus, you can charge it up after upgrading it twice for even more damage. 	
*3 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*6 Blood Metal: Increased power & range, charge up: POWER
*7 Blood Metal & 1 Blood of Valfaris: Increased power & range
Blood Axe 	Unlocked - The Hive in secret 3. After the room where you ride the warm and you first run into a swarmer nest, look in the upper right corner for a ball you can break to reveal this secret area.	The Blood Axe has a high attack speed. This could be good if you're having trouble with precision strikes, you can use this to attack more often. 	
*3 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*6 Blood Metal: Increased power & range, charge up: BLOOD FRENZY
*7 Blood Metal & 1 Blood of Valfaris: Increased power & range
Jelly Whip 	Unlocked - Power Chambers after defeating Lord Jylskel 	This melee weapon has a much longer reach than any you've had so far. This can be useful as a defensive weapon since you can be further away during an attack, making escape to safety easier. 	
*3 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*6 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*7 Blood Metal & 1 Blood of Valfaris: Increased power & range
Leg of Arach 	Unlocked - Dead Eco-Dome after defeating Arach 	The Leg of Arach has a lifesteal feature. Every time you hit an enemy, it will slowly heal you. You will, however, get less energy from each hit. The difference in both is fairly minimal. If you find yourself dying a lot, you may want to consider this as it might heal you just enough to beat that tough boss.	
*3 Blood Metal: Increased power, range, & life drain
*6 Blood Metal: Increased power, range & life drain
*7 Blood Metal & 1 Blood of Valfaris: Increased power, range & life drain
Bathoryn 	Unlocked - The Cathedral after defeating Furrok 	This weapon will have a damage over time effect. When you hit an enemy with it, it will continue to burn them, dealing some additional damage to them. This is also useful against bosses as you can get some damage in as you run away. 	
*3 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
*6 Blood Metal: Increased power & range
