Bows, swords and throwable projectiles could be considered as primary weapons for fighting enemies and shields act as secondary weapons for shielding against attacks from enemies.
Different kinds of enemies will be encountered thus some weapons would do more damage to enemies by performing light and heavy attacks. Magic is also a feature in the game using a magic system called Focus Points that are performed at bonfires that act as checkpoints, also stamina is consumed.
Magic is performed for defensive, offensive and support functions. At the beginning of the game, the magic is hard to perform but after getting high stats in magic it becomes easy. The player wears an armor that protects him from attacks by limiting the damage and life of the player.
As quest progresses more heavy armor can be unlocked and used by the player.
