Mortal Shell 2 contains 8 obtainable melee weapons. Finding all weapons is required for the trophy/achievement Lord of War, along with one for obtaining each weapon individually.
None of the Weapons are missable, you can find them all after the final boss in free-roam before choosing to enter New Game+.
You can purchase maps from the merchant Merrick in Marrow Keep, which will mark the approximate location of each weapon on the overworld map. This is not required to find them though, so you can save your coin instead of purchasing the maps.
Weapons are listed in the approximate order you will most likely unlock them by following normal game progression.
#1 – The Iconoclast
This is the first melee weapon you obtain, acquired at the start of the game during the Prologue.
#2 – Axe and Dagger
First, go south of Mushroom Village beacon to the area with the large burning pyre and the enemies nearby. On the north edge of the platform is an arch that when you walk through while facing the fire will cause a statue to appear. On the rope hanging from the statue is the Chapel Key.
Then go northwest of Mushroom Village beacon, use the Chapel key to open the doorway and enter the Shrine of Trials dungeon.
Progress to the end to find the weapon. In the first room walk backwards through the wall facing the statue, in the other rooms are basic push block floor switches, hit the blocks with your weapon to move them.
#3 – Veteran’s Battle Axe
Go northwest of Shattered Beacon dungeon, into a cave to find The King’s Crypt dungeon.
Follow the main path through the dungeon until you drop down a long hole, the weapon is on a body right beside an enemy.
#4 – Great Martyr’s Blade
Go northwest of Gloomshade Grove Beacon, follow the paths to the northeast outside corner of the castle, where there is a hole in the wall leading to the Martyr’s Prison dungeon. You also end up at the well nearby if you take the back entrance from the Holding Cells Dungeon.
Enter the dungeon and interact with the bag on the stone counter to move to a different area.
Progress through the dungeon and defeat the 4 enemies in the locked room to access the room with the weapon.
#5 – Obsidian Hammer
From Outskirts of Mammon Beacon, follow the paths leading to the southwest of the area, where you can follow the wooden bridges towards the area full of wooden scaffolding, called Deserted Slums. In the center of the Deserted Slums, drop to the lower area with the enemies mining rocks. The entrance to the Obsidianite Mines Dungeon is on the southwest side of the pit area.
Progress to the end of the dungeon and defeat the miniboss Prophet of Profane Infinities to automatically obtain the weapon.
#6 – Black Needle
Inside the Sester’s Gate Beacon.
Progress to the end of the area and defeat the pair of bosses Twin Sesters and Stray Sesters to receive the weapon.
#7 – Axatana
Northeast of The Silent Steps Beacon, follow the path to the highest northeastern point where there is a Bone Gate that leads to the tower closer to the eastern Corrupt Gate. Press the button on the back of the tower to open the gate, and inside you can find the weapon behind an enemy.
#8 – Clockwork Scythe
Southeast of The Silent Steps Beacon, go to the large stone platform where you encounter the miniboss Sariel, the Endless.
After you defeat him the first time, he will move through the walls to the south, opening them so that you can enter the Chamber of Becoming Dungeon.
Follow him through the Dungeon and defeat him again. In the final room you need to attack the tombstones to break them to stop him reviving. Once you have done this with all 4 and fully defeated him, you will automatically obtain the weapon.
That’s all of the Weapons in Mortal Shell II.
