For information on the game, see ARMS (game).
The weapon is the item attached to the ARMs of the playable characters in ARMS. They can be switched out, which each character able to use up to three. The weapon on each arm do not have to be the same. Each weapon has it's own set of stats, creating some interesting combos. Weapons can be changed between rounds.
Players can unlock additional arms by playing the Arm Getter. Spend your hard-earned prize money and get rewarded with a random arm of a specific type. This does mean that players have a chance of getting an arm they already have. If this happens, the arm already owned gains an increase in attack power.
Important stats of arms are weight and attributes.
Lighter arms may move faster but do less damage than the slower heavier arms. For multi-hit arms, the power of each hit is low. If a player hits another player's arm with one of an equal or higher weight, they can use their arm to block the punch. If it is lighter than the oncoming arm, they should dodge it instead.
There are 8 different attributes that can apply to an arm. These are Fire, Electric, Wind, Ice, Stun, Explosion, Blind, and Poison. Attributes are triggered when a weapon is charged up.
