I don’t know if the falchion is a “standard” weapon, I would say no. I guess it comes from addons like CEP. There are a lot of new weapons in CEP.

Actually the “Moon on a stick” and other holdable items are a weapon, it does hefty 1d2 damage. I would think everything which can be equipped in the right hand counts as weapon. So a shield or a torch are no weapons, they are restricted to the left hand. Missing the lance which is another holdable.

Monk’s gloves could be counted as weapons.

If you take baseitems.2da from the CEP 2 top hak and compare it with vanilla, you’ll find the complete list of CEP weapons.

Depending on how you define “weapon”, you can filter on the 2da columns.

There are lots more - for example, Black Powder Guns, and several CCC entries - but I don’t have a complete list.

@Mmat thanks for responding. Gloves don’t need to be in the list.

@Proleric thanks for your advice. Based on what I saw, I am going to add add these weapons to the list.

If you add CEP-Weapons, don’t forget the one and two-handed fashion accessoires. Maybe it’s a good idea to look into the WeaponType column of baseitems.2da.

Thanks @Mmat
I am really interested in the base weapon types that players might choose as the best weapon for a particular mod. So I am probably safe to leave out the fashion accessories.
