When players think of Stardew Valley, they likely think of calmly tilling the earth, watering freshly planted seeds, and chatting up the residents of nearby Pelican Town. Beyond that cozy exterior, hidden under the surface (literally, in The Mines) is an in-depth combat system with hordes of monsters to take on. To best survive any encounter with slimes, mummies, or serpents, players need to equip themselves with a weapon. To know what weapon will serve best against any foe, read on.
One important note to any list of weapons is that taking on the Mines or Skull Caverns with nothing but a sword or sling is not a wise decision. To best succeed in combat, players should be well stocked on foods like spicy eel, survival burgers, or even the humble plain cheese to boost their stats and recover health. Combining consumables with superior weaponry is the best recipe for success in Stardew Valley.
