Weapon Skins

Equipping weapon skins

Weapon Skins is a feature that allows Adventurers to change the appearance of their equipped weapon. It was added in version 1.14.0.

Overview

During quests, an Adventurer may equip a skin over their weapon, giving it the appearance of another weapon. The stats, skills, and abilities of the "real" weapon remain unchanged - for all intents and purposes, this is purely a cosmetic feature.

On the teams screen and in co-op rooms, units with an equipped weapon skin will have a blue eye icon displayed next to them. Tapping a unit in either place will then show the name of the "real" weapon in the unit's summary page.

Weapon skins can be disabled from view in co-op rooms by going to Game → Weapon Skin Display Settings in the More (Green Book) → Options menu.

Unlocking a Weapon Skin

There are three methods for unlocking skins:

• For playable weapons that actually have stats and such, their skin is unlocked upon obtaining that weapon.

• For weapons that only exist as skins, they are usually unlocked when unbinding a playable weapon. The skins available will vary by weapon, but will usually match the upgraded weapon's type and element. For example, unbinding a Flame Sword may unlock some other Flame Sword skins.

• Special skins may be available as rewards from events.

A running count of the total available skins can be found below. Note that these counters include both playable weapons and skin-only weapons:

Sword	Blade	Dagger	Axe	Lance	Bow	Wand	Staff	Manacaster	Total
90	91	90	84	89	88	88	79	36	735

Equipping a Weapon Skin

To equip a weapon skin, go to the teams menu, tap an adventurer's equipped weapon, and then tap the "Weapon Skins" button in the bottom-right to select a skin. Note that skins can only mask weapons of the same weapon type: for example, a lance can be masked by another lance, but a lance cannot be masked by a wand.

Swapping the "real" weapon to a different one will instantly unequip whichever skin was currently in use.

Skin-only Weapons

As a result of the weapon system overhaul in Version 2.0, many weapons now only exist as skins:

Sword

Blade

Dagger

Axe

Lance

Bow

Wand

Staff

Manacaster

Trivia

• During the Walkies quest of the Wagabond Pupper event, all adventurers who are eligible for weapon skins will instead carry a small shovel. Adventurers that cannot use weapon skins will still carry their usual built-in skin. For example, Veronica will still hold her tome.
• While it does not appear in her portrait art, the Replica Machine Gun (Skin) is used by Panther in her force strike animation.
• Pecorine, Grimnir, and Gala Mascula are unable to use weapon skins, however their weapons are available separately as skins that other adventurers can use.
