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 cleaver Long Blade (16 Courage) — ancient Mockery sword at 53 ATK, 34 stagger
Farm fragments from Armoured Mockery or Thrice-bound Impidh; craft with Scrap Brass, Ichor, Corrupt Onyx
Mid-game bridge before Marrow's Bane (21 Courage); compare Falx at lower 12 Courage gate

Stultin is an Uncommon cleaver-style Long Blade requiring 16 Courage, themed around the ancient Mockery lore. With 53 base ATK, 34 stagger, and 3% smite, it serves as a mid-game bridge before Marrow's Bane (21 Courage, 54 ATK). Farm fragments from Armoured Mockery or Thrice-bound Impidh (normal and Cogah variants). Dendrit Chests in the Glades and Deadwood Mockery encounters provide supplemental drop tables. Craft at Tuvalkane with Scrap Brass, Ichor, and Corrupt Onyx (10h). Purchase from Avakot for 235 Dracs. Stultin fills the Courage cleaver progression gap between Falx (12 Courage, 54 ATK) and Marrow's Bane (21 Courage, 54 ATK) — offering 16 Courage gate with 53 ATK, only 1 ATK less than both alternatives. The lore describes Stultin as a cut and rusted sword from an unremembered battle, filed flat in falchion style with a petrified wooden hilt. The glowing runes etched into settled rust suggest the blade's power persists beyond its physical decay. Effective in Crypt of the Circade content and against Mockery-type enemies where the ancient blade's resonance deals bonus damage. Pairs with Tethren melee builds for high-stagger cleaver combos.

A cut and rusted sword from an era long forgotten. Stultin, the ancient arm of a fallen mockery. The steel blade was fractured in some unremembered battle, then filed flat in falchion style. The wooden hilt has rotted and dried, near petrified. But the glowing runes... Seemingly etched anew into well-settled rust."
