One-handed weapons including daggers, axes, spears, torches, and sickles can be thrown. Any player can throw a weapon without any special abilities required. Throwing can be bound to any key in the Settings menu.

Throwing Basics

Throwindicator.png
  • Each weapon has its own unique speed, flight path, and range.
  • The farther a weapon flies, the less damage it does, making them suitable for short to mid-range engagements.
  • Unequip your weapon to throw rocks.
  • Players enter combat mode when hit with a projectile.
  • Headshots do not deal extra damage.
  • Throwing weapons provide XP in the Weapon tree of Character Development.
  • Thrown weapons are replenished naturally over time and also when wounding and killing enemies.
  • Siege equipment can be damaged by throwables.

Stack size and Regeneration

  • The throwing system is identical in function to the arrow quiver system, which is described on the Weapons page.
  • Each throwable weapon has a base number of times it can be thrown before "running out" temporarily.
  • Thrown weapons regenerate automatically slowly over time.
  • Wounding and killing enemies with thrown weapons increases the regeneration of projectiles.
  • Throwing weapons all share the same pool. If you have thrown 50% of your daggers, you have also thrown 50% of your spears, axes, and torches.
  • Throwing weapons share the same resource pool as arrows. If you've shot 75% of your arrows, you have also used 75% of all your one-handed throwables.
  • Swapping weapons does not grant a "full" load of projectiles and does not increase regeneration.

Mounts

  • Horses can be slowed by hitting the horse with a red powerbar throw.
  • Mounted players can throw one-handed weapons.

Abilities Affecting Thrown Weapons

  • The time it takes to get to a full power throw is NOT reduced with any ability.
  • The amount of time a throw is at "max" power is NOT affected by any ability.
  • The number of throwing weapons available can be increased by the Marksman, Athlete, and Not on My Watch Abilities.
  • The Huntsman ability increases the regeneration rate.
