Mastering combat in Lies of P requires a deep understanding of its diverse arsenal, which is split into assembleable normal weapons and powerful boss-derived special weapons. Building an effective loadout allows players to tailor their playstyle through customizable blades and handles. This comprehensive guide covers how to track down every primary weapon location scattered throughout the dark streets of Krat.
Starting Options and Early Area Weapons
Players begin their journey by choosing one of three starting weapons: the Puppet's Saber, Wintry Rapier, or Greatsword of Fate. If you miss any of these during character creation, they can be purchased shortly after from the Wandering Merchant in Cerasani Alley. Moving into Elysion Boulevard, players can acquire the Electric Coil Stick from the house merchant or loot the Krat Police Baton after defeating a elite puppet guard.
Exploring Venigni Works and Mid-Game Armament Locations
Deeper into Chapter III, exploring Venigni Works yields heavy-hitting gear like the Big Pipe Wrench and Booster Glaive. Players searching for elemental weapons will find the Salamander Dagger hidden behind a drop-down floor inside the Workshop Union Entrance. Later in Chapter V, the Acidic Crystal Spear is located down a side path past the Path of the Pilgrim Stargazer.
Purchasing Normal Weapons from Merchants
Not all normal weapons are found inside treasure chests or dropped by minibosses. Certain vendors, such as the Malum District Black Market Trader, sell specialized items like the Bramble Curved Sword. As you progress through Hotel Krat, handing over Venigni Collections to Pulcinella unlocks advanced gear including the Tyrant Murderer's Dagger and Pistol Rock Drill.
Unlocking Special Boss Weapons
Special weapons offer fixed, non-craftable movesets that possess immense power against tough enemies. By defeating main bosses, players earn rare Boss Ergo that can be exchanged with the hound-masked merchant Alidoro. Options like the Seven-Coil Spring Sword, Trident of the Covenant, and Two Dragons Sword provide distinct Fable Arts suited for specific combat builds.
