Compare items

Compare 2 to 10 items from the current Item Database results. Start with two items, add more when needed, and compare stats, shop gold, and single-target vs pack damage.

Back to items
Player choice note: This compare tool uses the item data currently listed in the handbook. It is meant to help you see tradeoffs, not declare a perfect best-in-slot answer. Real results still depend on your class, build, player skill, positioning, enemy type, enemy armor or resists, movement, cooldown timing, range, and how many foes you can safely hit. A bow, wand, or harp may be better when you need safe ranged single-target damage. A melee weapon, mace, sword, or staff may show stronger pack damage when several foes are close enough to hit together. Pack damage below uses 5 foes for multi-hit weapons.

Find compare options

Search or filter before choosing items. This keeps the compare page fast when the item database grows.

95 loaded options

Use 1 for single foe, or 2-20 to see how multi-hit weapons scale when several foes are hit at once.

One-handed weapon shield add-ons

One-handed weapons can also use a shield. Select a shield to compare the full one-handed setup against two-handed weapons.

Clear selected

Use Item Database filters first when the list is large. The comparison stays in the same tab so it works better on phones.

Shield suggestion: Broadsword is one-handed. Select a shield above and compare again to judge one-handed setup vs two-handed gear.

Which item is better?

Green marks the strongest result, red marks lower results, yellow means the items are tied, and orange marks a damage-type mismatch.

Single foe vs pack damage

Bows, wands, and harps are treated as single-target. Other weapons are treated as multi-hit for pack damage, so their damage scales by the foe count above.
