Since Preludes 14, Joineries enhance a weapon's Virtue attunement, providing 1 to 3 Virtue Attunement pips depending on the Joinery type.

Since Preludes 14, Runes activate on a Heavy Attack. Smiting enemies banks a charge that you can use to trigger the Rune effect at will.

Totems are passive bonuses applied to weapons. They are obtained by charming or rescuing animals in the world.

Rapiers are a weapon type added in Preludes 14 with their own unique moveset. The signature weapons are Navalha and Espadarte.

Soulframe is a free-to-play (F2P) fantasy action RPG developed by Digital Extremes, the creators of Warframe. Set on the isle of Midrath, it focuses on deliberate melee combat, somber exploration, and co-op play during the Preludes pre-alpha on PC.

Preludes is Digital Extremes' name for Soulframe's current pre-alpha phase. It's an early, evolving version of the game that players can experience as it's built openly alongside the community.

Q: How many weapons are in Soulframe?

Soulframe Hub covers all Soulframe weapons across 9 types, filterable by Virtue attunement. Updated for Preludes 15.

Q: Can I use any weapon with any Pact?

Yes—you can equip any weapon regardless of Pact, but **Virtue attunement** still governs damage scaling. A Pact only gates your three Arcanic skills; mismatched weapons work, yet they feel weaker until you align Virtue Points with the weapon's Courage, Spirit, or Grace lane.

Q: What is Virtue attunement?

Every weapon is attuned to one or more Virtues. Investing Virtue Points into the matching Virtue increases that weapon's damage output.

Q: How many weapons can I equip at once?

You can equip one primary weapon and one sidearm simultaneously.

Q: Can I upgrade weapons?

Yes. Bring weapon fragments and materials to Tuvalkane in the Nightfold to craft and upgrade weapons. Higher-tier recipes require Bond Level 3.

Q: How do I get weapon fragments?

Fragments drop from enemies, quest rewards, and Siege events. Collect enough fragments, then craft the full weapon at Tuvalkane.

Q: Can I mix weapons of different Virtues?

Yes. You can equip any weapon regardless of Virtue, but mismatched attunement will result in lower damage. Experienced players often swap weapons based on enemy resistances.

Uncommon Ode'n sword-and-shield (13 Courage, pure Courage) — 41 ATK, 26 stagger, a throwable Umbr shield
Farm 1 fragment from Polearm Rack previews on Midrath Sinecure routes; Zenith sells one for 135 Dracs
Low-friction Courage-only shield before Lyke-Wake; compare Bog & Myrtle (Grace co-attunement, 42 ATK)

Uncommon Ode'n sword-and-shield (Courage 13, pure Courage attunement). Post-Preludes 15: 41 ATK, 26 stagger, 5% smite — a throwable Umbr shield paired with a short blade moveset. Farm 1 fragment from Polearm Rack previews on Midrath Sinecure routes, then craft at Tuvalkane with Scrap Iron×25, Knotwood×25, and Dendrit Weave×25 (10h, 2500 Dracs). Zenith merchant sells a fragment for 135 Dracs when stocked. Compare Lyke-Wake if you want a Spirit hybrid on Courage virtue, or Bog & Myrtle for a different Ode'n blade line before investing in Rare polearm or Heavy upgrades. Oryn-Umbr pairs with the Tethren, Ode-Tempest, Mora's Hand, Bromius, and Wyld Tethren pacts, giving pure-Courage melee builds a throwable shield option alongside its short blade moveset. Lore splits the set in two: Oryn, an Ode'n short sword tipped by an eclipse that lightens the Sinecure swing, and Umbr, a lightweight shield etched with Skytower sigils and forged to be hurled like a starnshot.

Oryn, an Ode'n short sword tipped by an eclipse. Its hollowed blade lightens the Sinecure swing, so it may be wielded by only one hand. Umbr, a shield aglow with Ode'n sigil. Skytowers loft are mapped in blue upon its tempered face. Cast in lightweight alloys, Umbr is forged to be thrown as a starnshot blazing.
