Hey there! So, you're diving into the mines and need to know about weapons and armor in Coral Island? Let's get you prepped. Think of weapons as your go-to for battling those pesky monsters, unlike your farming tools. They don't use up stamina, and you can't upgrade or enchant them. Instead, you'll be buying new ones from the [Band of Smiles]. They work a bit differently than [trinkets] – you can't equip them, but you use them just like your regular [tools]. ### Weapon Stats Every weapon has its own stats, and different types are good for different things. Spears, for example, have a longer reach, while hammers pack a bigger punch. Here's a quick rundown of what the stats mean: * Damage: How much hurt the weapon inflicts before factoring in your stats or the enemy's defense. * Defense: Extra defense points the weapon gives you. * Crit. damage: A multiplier that boosts your critical hit damage. * Crit. chance: The odds of landing a critical hit before any other calculations. * Combo length: How many hits you can string together quickly. The last hit in a combo might do more or less damage. * Charge: How many hits it takes to charge up a special ability, or how many uses you get before it needs to recharge. ### Types of Weapons #### Swords Swords are pretty balanced – they offer a good mix of range, attack speed, and damage. Their special move is a spinning attack that you can unleash once it's fully charged by hitting enemies. This spin deals 0.75x your sword's normal damage and can hit multiple enemies around you. Plus, all swords have a 3-hit combo where the final hit deals 1.5x damage. Here are some swords you can get: | Item | Damage | Defense | Crit. Damage | Crit.

They might not be as flashy as swords, but they can save your skin! (Note: The source text cuts off here, so I can't provide details on shields, spears, or hammers.)
