# Weapons

There will be two types of equipment in the game. There will be skills and weapons. Skills will serve as your abilities, and will be picked prior to the match is started and will also be based on level/ranking. As those skills will be unlocked over time while leveling up your mount. While weapons will exist to be your basic attack functionality.

Weapons will be mapped to your mouse input, where you have a left attack on the left mouse button and a right attack on the right mouse button. In the future, we will allow controller input and touch screen input for mobile.

There will be three base weapons that will act as your base attack. Before each race, you can choose one of the three weapons to begin the race.

* **Spear:**

  * The spear will be a throwable projectile that you must aim within a 90-degree cone in front of the chariot.&#x20;
  * The right mouse button will enable aiming and show a cone on the ground with an arrow or some other aim guide showing the direction the spear will go. Mouse movement left, and right will change the angle of the aim.
  * The left click will throw the spear in the direction of the aim.

* **Sword:**

  * Sword will do base player damage to the left or right side opponent, depending on the side you attack.&#x20;
  * The right-click will perform a base attack on the right side.
  * The left click will perform a base attack on the right side.

* **Shield:**
  * The shield will parry a basic attack and, if parried, will stun the attacking player.&#x20;
  * The right-click will parry incoming basic attacks on the right side.
  * The left click will parry incoming basic attacks on the left side.
