See this is why we should buy wepons. Burn the forest with fire!
Aaron, being the MC, is unable to use any weapons. In fact, Aaron is incapable of taking part in combat, and losing all units will result in a loss and reload to the last visited Altar (Last Level-up). However, you may purchase weapons for Heroes, like Miri (Miri uses Daggers, BTW). This gives them a +1 to their DAM roll for every level over Rusty the weapon is. The list is as so:
Rusty > Iron > Steel > Orcish > Dwarven > Adamantine > Mythic > Glowing > [ARTIFACT]
Mythic and above can only be found in certain locations, never purchased. Death's Scythe was a [ARTIFACT], with a massive +8 DAM added on to whatever Adelheid could roll.
I can guarantee you won't find many Artifacts. At all. You probably won't find any Glowing weapons either, unless you manage to raid a Ancient's Stronghold. And trust me, you're going to want a big stack of top-level creatures and heroes if you do.
