The enemies that you face in Lugaru and numerous and also deadly and sometimes fists just don't get the job done. For this reason there are three weapons available to you in the game: the knife, sword, and staff. | |||

The staff is a large, wooden weapon that gives a longer fighting range, and is capable of deflecting or blocking attacks. The staff is fragile, and usually breaks within a few hits. | The staff is a large, wooden weapon that gives a longer fighting range, and is capable of deflecting or blocking attacks. The staff is fragile, and usually breaks within a few hits but more than makes up for it due to its ability to quickly end a fight. | ||

That isn't a fancy walking stick your enemy has, it's a staff. A long wooden stick may not seem like much trouble, but staff users are rabbits you don't want to mess with. Staffs are a little more powerful than kicks and punches; they are also swifter and can be harder to block for the novice player. Staffs have a longer range than a knife, so you need to get a little closer if you want to use a reversal to take it. Staffs can also whack weapons out of your hands as well as block weapon attacks, so be careful. Staff hits are not cuts so you can run to heal them, but they can take a little longer. Just make sure not to fall prey to a succession of staff hits or you will die quickly. | That isn't a fancy walking stick your enemy has, it's a staff.

{{sidebar|width=200px|title=Warning|contents=Remember that your enemies will try their best to get that sword away from you. They will block and parry your attacks, and a sword reversal will let them steal your sword and throw you a few feet away. Dodge them and escape all reversals. Then end their pitiful lives with some sword swipes.}} | |||
Time to throw away the knife and bring out the best. If you are a novice or not keen to back stabbing, swords are the ultimate enemy slayer. Sword cuts are deeper than knife cuts, so your opponents will bleed to death faster. They also do not seem to heal over time as with other attacks. Swords have the range of staffs, without the breaking, and can continuously parry and block other enemy attacks. And finally, all reversals get the added bonus of sword stabs. It is point blank the best weapon to have, especially when dealing with groups of enemies. | |||
