Melee Weapons in Minecraft Dungeons are weapons used for close-quarter combat. There is a variety of melee weapons such as swords, hammers, sickles, axes, and many more. Weapons do not increase their level when it is used, but instead, it can be upgraded by unlocking Enchantments that can change its effects or add buffs to it. Weapons are obtained as drops in areas, mobs, and bosses, obtained as rewards for completing quests, and by trading with the Mystery Merchant, Luxury Merchant, and Village Merchant. This page covers a list of all the Melee Weapons in Minecraft Dungeons.

  • For a list of upgrades for the weapons, please visit our Enchantments page.
  • Or, check the individual page of the weapon to view the list of enchantments available for it.

Enchanting a Weapon

Weapons can be empowered by unlocking Enchantments. Each time a player increases their level, they'll receive enchantment-points-icon-minecraft-dungeons-wiki-guide1 Enchantment Point. Enchantment Points are used to unlock enchantments and to increase its tier level to maximize the effect. Each weapon has a different set of enchantments that are available and players can only choose up to three different enchantments.

Can I Respec my Enchantment Points?

In Minecraft Dungeons, players can choose the option to "Salvage" it, by doing so, salvaging will allow you to obtain back the number of Enchantment Points you have spent on a specific armor, as well as a decent amount of emerald-icon-minecraft-dungeons-wiki-guideEmeralds. You can also upgrade items at the blacksmith, which instantly returns all enchantment points on the item. Gifting an item also returns enchantment points.
