Multi-Melee Master	comment	A character who carries more than one type of melee weapon. Frequently, they carry a short-ranged weapon and a long-reach weapon. That, or a weapon that is good for offence and defence. They tend to have trouble changing between them, though, as it means he has to draw the new weapon and dispose of the old one somehow. This can be rather tricky to do in real life, as different types of melee weapon can require radically different styles. This is most evident when it comes to weapons with hugely divergent physical properties. A swordsman can use an axe or spear with relative ease, but a flail's physical attributes are different enough for it to require entirely separate training and methods. Even among swords, remember that the idea that All Swords Are the Same is false; one uses a katana differently from a rapier or a broadsword. On the other hand, this is also very much Truth in Television, as professional warriors were expected to be fully trained across multiple weapon types. For example, Liechtenauer stated that one should be adept in hand to hand, the use of the dagger, polearm (generally a halberd or polehammer), sword and shield, and most importantly, the longsword (which was the foundation of Liechtenauer's entire system, and a longsword at half-sword was wielded virtually identically to a polearm). Added to that, there are cases of professional warriors that used different weapons that did share some common way of handling: look no farther than this Greek hoplite with his long thrusting lance and his shorter-ranged slashing spear◊ - in the context of a phalanx, both were handled with basically the same downward arm movement through the gaps between shields. Note that this is carrying two different styles of melee weapon. A person who carries two one-handed swords in case one breaks is not this trope, that's just someone who carries an Emergency Weapon. A person who carries, say, a short sword and a shield, and a two-handed sword, in case they need more offence or defence, is this trope. Note also that this is not Dual Wielding. This is when characters switch between two different melee weapons depending on the situation. If they wield both weapons at the same time, that is Dual Wielding, not Multi-Melee Master. Fairly common in fiction in general; characters who are competent with their weapons will usually be shown either (a) always using a weapon of choice that they rarely lose for long or otherwise ever trade in for anything else or (b) as being reasonably omnicompetent with almost any weapon they get their hands on. It's then a fairly small step from the latter case to this trope. A Morph Weapon can be employed to mimic the effects of having multiple weapons without actually having those extra weapons as encumberance, at the extra risk of being disarmed of their sole weapon. Subtrope of Choice of Two Weapons. May also be a Walking Armory, if he doesn't use a Swiss-Army Weapon instead. For the ranged weapon version, see Multi-Ranged Master.

Multi-Melee Master / int_13a0c5fc	comment	Adept Rogues in .hack//G.U. Games can combine the weapons (and by extension, abilities) of 2-3 other classes. They're even called "Multi-Weapons" in Japanese. Despite this they're not very popular because their average base stats make them unable to compete with a specialist with the same weapon, and the point system locks out the really powerful combinations like Harvest Cleric/Shadow Warlock. That said you play as one with the combination of Twin Blade/Heavy Blade/Flick Reaper, unlocking a new weapon in each game. Near the end of the last game you get a fourth weapon, a pair of handguns that isn't used by any of the actual classes.

Short swords can be used to attack enemies quickly, long swords and other heavy weapons can be used to knock away an enemy's shield or send enemies flying, spears are good for slowly chipping away at enemies from a distance and ideal for fighting on horseback, boomerangs can be tossed or swung as a melee weapon, and bows can be used to snipe enemies from afar. Guardian Scouts can wield up to three weapons at once, or two and a shield. They don't double up on weapons, and thus come equipped with one each of the Guardian swords, spears and/or axes.

Multi-Melee Master / int_26a33287	comment	The player character in Mount & Blade will wind up like this. Not only are axes clubs and swords under the same skills (1 handed and 2 handed) but you have 4 inventory slots and diminishing returns for investing skill points into weapons (after about 100 points it is much more practical to raise them via use) encourages spreading them around. Couched lances are ridiculously powerful, but a lance is a slow and unwieldy weapon when you aren't on a horse. It's usually wise to have a backup sword or axe whenever your main weapon is long and slow, in case you need to fight a quick or close enemy.

Multi-Melee Master / int_278d58b5	comment	Just like in the source material, Bloodborne, a hunter from The Night Unfurls typically carries more than one melee weapon with them in a hunt, using them with equal proficiency. Kyril's most common setup is the Saw Cleaver for close range, and the Holy Moonlight Sword for long-ranged crowd control. Other weapons at his disposal include the Whirlgig Saw, the Stake Driver, and the Hunter's Axe. Hugh uses both the Threaded Cane and the Chikage — the former for crowd control, and the latter for close-ranged firepower. He eventually replaces the cane with Simon's Bowblade for additional adaptability. After training with serrated blades for a while, Sanakan opts for two longswords that can join with a detachable larger weapon (Kirkhammer and Ludwig's Holy Blade), Lily wields a blade that can be extended to become a polearm (Church Pick), and Soren goes for a rapier-gun hybrid (Reiterpallasch).

Multi-Melee Master / int_2ffcbd43	comment	Fire Emblem: The series has numerous character classes that can use more than one weapon type. Heroes can use both swords and axes, Warriors can use axes and bows, Cavaliers and Paladins can usually use swords and lances (and sometimes axes as well), Generals can use usually lances and at least one other weapon (which varies wildly with every game), Falcon Knights can use lances and swords, Wyvern Lords can use lances and either swords or axes depending on the game, and Nomad Troopers and Rangers can use swords and bows. The Master Knight class from the fourth game has access to not only every single non-legendary melee weapon, but most magic tomes as well. Great Knights can wield the entire melee weapon triangle in games where they appear. Fire Emblem Fates introduces several new classes that can wield multiple weapons as well, such as Blacksmiths (katanas and clubs) and Masters of Arms (the entire melee triangle). Fire Emblem: Three Houses: The game removes class restrictions for equipping weapons, so anyone can potentially be a multi-melee master. Certain classes do better with certain weapons (such as thieves excelling with swords and bows), but there is nothing to stop you from outfitting an archer with a bow, a sword, an axe, and some gauntlets.

He mainly uses a longsword/katana Lux or the BFS Ser Veresta, but has demonstrated proficiency with spear, short sword, and grappling as well, mainly in his duel with Kirin Toudou at the end of Volume 2. Kirin, in contrast, uses the Toudou Style, an Edo Period style designed for one-on-one dojo matches, which gives her a slight edge in speed but limits her effectiveness against multiple opponents or non-sword-wielding enemies (she begins to incorporate some Amagiri Shinmei moves as a result of her Senpai/Kōhai friendship with Ayato).

Multi-Melee Master / int_629cd094	comment	It's conceivable to build a character like this in Dragon Age: Origins. A character that picks the two handed weapon specialization will equally be able to wield a one-handed weapon. There are actually no restrictions for using weapons (beyond meeting the stat requirements), so you can use any weapon at any time, including hand-axes, bows, swords, daggers, mauls and more. You won't want to, though: spreading your skill points around between various weapon sets means you're less effective overall, whereas specializing allows you to murder with efficiency, and there's enough powerful weapons floating around that staying up-to-date is never a concern. On the other hand, the game's habit of only distinguishing between one- and two-handed melee weapons in its skill system means that a character specialized in two-handed weapons will be equally proficient with claymore swords, mauls, and long battleaxes and able to switch between them at will.

Multi-Melee Master / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: every character is proficient with multiple weapons right out of the box, and warrior classes are often proficient in all but the most unusual ones, but Fighters have a different way of standing above the rest in each edition. 2nd lets them specialize in weapon skills beyond what others can, 3rd gives them enough bonus combat feats to master more than one fighting style, and 4th has bonus effects for different weapon types built right into their attacks, which fighter-exclusive feats can take even further. This can also be quite essential as some monsters (like skeletons) are practically or entirely immune to certain weapon types. Expanding on the above, D&D fighters are the most likely to be this because they're strongest in melee combat and have few other ways of adapting to changing circumstances — a cleric can alternate spellcasting and laying into enemies with their mace Magic Knight-style, but a fighter whose current weapon doesn't work so well on a given enemy is often best advised to switch to another and hope that improves matters. (At higher levels this can mean switching between different magical weapons to find the right one for the job.)

Weapons also had differing effective ranges so far as combat went. Melee focused characters could reasonably be expected to have a large, slow weapon to overcome armor and damage resistance, and use a lighter, faster weapon to have a reasonable chance to hit smaller and more agile targets. The combination of a super sledge and a shishkebab can serve most melee characters' needs and yet only require raising one skill for proficiency.

Multi-Melee Master / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Link has the master sword, a hand and a half sword, and the Biggoron sword, a two-handed greatsword. Possibly due to his lack of training, he can't block with the second weapon, but it hurts like hell. So use the master sword against enemies you can't dodge but can block, and the Biggoron sword when having to get something between you and the enemy is irrelevant, say, if an enemy is very slow and predictable, or if their attacks are unblockable anyway. He can also wield the Megaton hammer, which makes a very effective, if somewhat slow, melee weapon. Add in some archery, slingshots, and a ton of other weapons throughout the games. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Link can pick up and use a variety of weapons. Short swords can be used to attack enemies quickly, long swords and other heavy weapons can be used to knock away an enemy's shield or send enemies flying, spears are good for slowly chipping away at enemies from a distance and ideal for fighting on horseback, boomerangs can be tossed or swung as a melee weapon, and bows can be used to snipe enemies from afar. Guardian Scouts can wield up to three weapons at once, or two and a shield. They don't double up on weapons, and thus come equipped with one each of the Guardian swords, spears and/or axes.

On the other hand, when dealing with lots of Flood... Anyway, the hammer is more powerful but has a slower swing, while the sword is less powerful, at least on its basic swing, but can be used faster. The hammer is also more useful without using its shock powers, as you can hit a foe with the butt of the hammer and still cause decent damage. Grifball (a rugby-esque arena gametype between two teams) codifies this — all players carry a sword and hammer, and usually use the hammer except against the ball carrier, where the sword is often more useful.

Kamen Rider Den-O has a Swiss-Army Weapon, but technically averts it further as the Rider is possessed by one of four demons to specialise in each weaponnote though it's shown that there's nothing keeping them from using other weapons except personal preference, as the group's sword-fighter uses the handgun form in one episode. Kamen Rider Gaim finally plays this one straight, as Gaim and Zangetsunote plus the multiple movie-exclusive Gaim repaints have a basic gun/sword called the Musou Saber on their belts which stays around even when they form change. Gaim takes this up another level when he gains his Super Mode, which grants him a Hyperspace Arsenal containing every weapon used in the series and switches between them rapidly during battles.

He ain't bad with his bare fists, either. He uses all of these in fairly imaginative combos, such as throwing the axe to draw enemies into lance-range, or hitting them into the air and then shooting them with an arrow. What's even more impressive is his lack of any convenient hyperspace — he carries them all constantly. Conversely, Bartz, Gilgamesh and Vaan all possess Hyperspace Arsenals that they use to bust out extended weapon combos. Bartz has duplicate weapons from almost every other protagonist, while Gilgamesh has recurring superweapons from the series. Gilgamesh's Super Mode will allow him to Octo-wield his inventory.

How much of a "master" you are depends on how skilled you are with said weapons, however. Unless you plan to invest a lot of time to practice using different weapon types or a lot of money for training your skills in those weapon types, it's recommended that you stick with one melee weapon type and become a master of that. In Oblivion, the skill system was revamped to include only "Blade" and "Blunt" weapon types. This means that you can become a "Blade" master by using a dagger a lot, then switch to a massive Claymore and instantly be a master with that too. After many criticisms, Skyrim moved back away from this system, instead having "One-Handed" and "Two-Handed" weapons classed together, with Perks that give you bonuses for using specific weapon types within those types (blade, axe, blunt, etc.) While you can still level up your One-Handed skill by using a sword, then switch to an axe and still be as effective, the axe will be less powerful if you haven't also taken the axe-related Perks. In Morrowind, there is a NPC class called "Master-at-Arms." This class primarily includes NPC trainers from the various guilds and factions, and they can train you to become more proficient in a number of weapon types. In particular, Eydis Fire-Eye of the Fighters Guild can train you all the way up to a skill level of 72 (Axe and Blunt Weapon) and 67 (Long Blade). She is actually the second most skilled Axe trainer in the game, behind only the Master Trainer for that skill, though she herself is armed with a Blunt Weapon (Dwemer Mace). In-universe, depending on the time period and the location, the Imperial Legion trains in numerous weapon types. Their most popular weapon is the Imperial Sword, though they've also trained their soldiers to use maces, polearms, and bows.

Multi-Melee Master / int_9db1766a	comment	Dante in Devil May Cry always winds up with a wide assortment of melee weapons by game's end. At the very least, he typically has a broadsword (Force Edge in 1, Rebellion otherwise) to start with then gets a pair of gauntlets (Ifrit in 1, Beowulf in 3) somewhere along the line as well. 3 tosses in ice nunchakus (Cerberus), dual scimitars (Agni & Rudra), and a bat-summoning electric guitar (Nevan) as well (and with Real-Time Weapon Change you can carry two of these at the same time and switch between them). 4 gives him another set of gauntlets and greaves (Gilgamesh) along with a weird weapon that lets him create explosive swords out of thin air (Lucifer). 5 gives him dual-wield chainsaw motorcycles (Cavaliere). He also gets a new set of gauntlets and greaves (Balrog) that has unique punch and kick modes instead of integrating both into a single moveset and a new version of the "Cerberus" weapon (King Cerberus) that can also shift into an electrical sansetsukon (three-section staff) and a fire rod. Finally he has access to three broadswords this time (Rebellion, his father's sword, and his own Devil Arm, the Devil Sword Dante). Normally you can only select one broadsword at a time, along with the other weapons mentioned, but with a special upgrade only available on a New Game Plus run, you can gain the ability to equip every weapon in a single arsenal (or none, for that matter). Vergil equips a katana (Yamato), a set of gauntlets and greaves (Beowulf), and uses his father's broadsword (Force Edge) in tandem with the katana. Dante gets to use the katana in 4 as part of the Dark Slayer style. Nero typically only uses the Red Queen so he's mostly an aversion but he has an Evil Hand and can sometimes use the Yamato during his Devil Trigger. DmC: Devil May Cry gives Dante the most amount of individual melee weapons to manage simultaneously to date. By default the weapon is a broadsword (Rebellion) but has Angelic and Demonic modes that each possess two weapon configurations of their own and all of these can be swapped freely by virtue of Rebellion being a Morph Weapon. Angelic weapons include a scythe (Osiris) and a pair of bladed throwing discs (Aquila) and Demonic weapons include a heavy axe (Arbiter) and a pair of gauntlets (Eryx).

Archer Inferno is also able to wield her naginata and katana even while summoned as an Archer. She's also a skilled wrestler and tosses her foes into the air in preparation for her Noble Phantasm. Scáthach is able to turn her Gáe Bolgs into a variety of weapons, include throwing knives, a three-part-staff, and a sword.

Multi-Melee Master / int_a81325d3	comment	In most Final Fantasy games, the ability to use a weapon is binary: you either can use a weapon, or you can't. In a few games, characters can use a number of different types of weapon with equal skill. Dragoons, for instance, can sometimes use either spears or swords. In some games, you can use two weapons at once — a flail and a sword, for instance, in FFVI. In FFV, a character without a job can use any weapon. Admittedly, there's rarely a reason to switch in the middle of a fight, but nothing stops you from doing so. Firion, as he appears in Dissidia Final Fantasy, carries not only a sword and a small shield, but also an axe, a staff, two daggers, a lance, and a bow. He ain't bad with his bare fists, either. He uses all of these in fairly imaginative combos, such as throwing the axe to draw enemies into lance-range, or hitting them into the air and then shooting them with an arrow. What's even more impressive is his lack of any convenient hyperspace — he carries them all constantly. Conversely, Bartz, Gilgamesh and Vaan all possess Hyperspace Arsenals that they use to bust out extended weapon combos. Bartz has duplicate weapons from almost every other protagonist, while Gilgamesh has recurring superweapons from the series. Gilgamesh's Super Mode will allow him to Octo-wield his inventory. Vaan's arsenal is even more varied than Firion's. Jack from Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin starts out wielding greatswords, but he can later on pick up dual daggers, knuckle dusters, magical maces, lances, axes, katanas, staves, and one-handed swords along with shields. The Liberator Job allows him to use any weapon he can while using it.

Possibly due to his lack of training, he can't block with the second weapon, but it hurts like hell. So use the master sword against enemies you can't dodge but can block, and the Biggoron sword when having to get something between you and the enemy is irrelevant, say, if an enemy is very slow and predictable, or if their attacks are unblockable anyway. He can also wield the Megaton hammer, which makes a very effective, if somewhat slow, melee weapon. Add in some archery, slingshots, and a ton of other weapons throughout the games.

Multi-Melee Master / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: Sandor Clegane (the Hound) wears a longsword on one hip, a dagger on the other, and a greatsword across his back. He wields the greatsword to protect Loras Tyrell from his brother Gregor Clegane, The Mountain That Rides, after Loras rides a mare in heat against Gregor's stallion in the joust; the longsword while using the other hand to drag King Joffrey out of the King's Landing bread riot; and the dagger while saving Sansa from some peasants at close quarters in the same riot. The first scene of Season 2 has him using a mace in a tourney duel. In Season 6, he uses a woodcutter's axe to kill the guys who destroyed the village he'd settled into after his fight with Brienne. Against the undead, he makes use of Gendry's warhammer as well as a pair of Dragonglass hatchets. Arya Stark initially trains in the Dornish "Water Dancing" rapier fencing. Her later training as a Faceless Man gives her proficiency with both quarterstaff and dagger. In the case of the former, she has Gendry forge her a staff that detaches into two smaller staves for close range fighting, using a threaded connector and in the latter case, she carries a Valyrian Steel dagger that she eventually uses to dispatch The Night's King. However, one weapon she explicitly mentions she has no proficiency with is the longsword, as it's not suited to her small frame.

Multi-Melee Master / int_bff01809	comment	Warhammer: Up until 8th edition, this occured a great deal due to how models are equipped. All non-monstrous models have a basic hand weapon (swords, axes etc.) and can be given different additional weapons like spears, two-handed weapons, bows, flintlock handguns and the like, but once locked in combat they must choose one of the weapons to use for the entirety of that combat. 8th edition removed this by making most weapon options an either/or deal (for example, the option of spears OR two-handed weapons), and preventing the use of hand weapons as long as the unit has a non-hand weapon available to use. Black Orcs are exempt to this rule, coming with a pair of one-handed weapons, a two-handed weapon and a hand weapon/shield combo, and can switch between them whenever they like. Dwarf Slayers have a similar rule that lets them switch between Dual Wielding hand weapons and using a two-handed weapon whenever they like. Their nature as Death Seekers prevent the use of shields however. Crom the Conqueror is armed with nothing more than a simple, non-magical broadsword, axe and tower shield, he is able to dominate opponents so utterly through his Confusion Fu they cannot use the magical properties of the weapons they carry. During 5th and 6th edition, Wood Elf Wardancers had rules that gave them unique attack styles for wielding different combinations of weaponry. As of 8th edition this was replaced with a choice of two hand weapons or an asrai spear, with the addition of special rules for their war dances instead. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: The Judicial Champion advanced class has possession of and proficiency with at least six different high-quality melee weapons as a prerequisite. This is justified by their role — judicial champions are the court's representative in Trial by Combat and need to be able to use whatever weapon the defendant picks.

Each of the four playable characters carries four weapons; one for close range, one for mid range, one for great sweeping range, and one long range projectile or throwing weapon. Because of the game's unique targeting weapon, each range allows them to target more enemies at once.

On the other hand, when dealing with lots of Flood... Anyway, the hammer is more powerful but has a slower swing, while the sword is less powerful, at least on its basic swing, but can be used faster. The hammer is also more useful without using its shock powers, as you can hit a foe with the butt of the hammer and still cause decent damage.

It was a standard Martian combination, in fact, and there was an honor rule that in a formal duel you aren't allowed to use a "longer" weapon than the one the challenged party uses (for example: if the opponent chooses the short sword, you are allowed to use the short sword, dagger or your bare hands, but not the long sword or spear).

Multi-Melee Master / int_e04f934e	comment	Fire Emblem: Three Houses: The game removes class restrictions for equipping weapons, so anyone can potentially be a multi-melee master. Certain classes do better with certain weapons (such as thieves excelling with swords and bows), but there is nothing to stop you from outfitting an archer with a bow, a sword, an axe, and some gauntlets. Sothis invoked this trope when Byleth was revealed to be the fifth Fighters Pass in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, giving him/her the signature Heroes' Relics of the House Leaders (Areadbhar, a lance, Aymr, an axe and Failnaught, a bow) to use alongside the Sword of the Creator, making it so that Byleth is not just another sword wielder.

The second game adds the Hatchets, the "Switchglaive" (which, alone, consists in basically three weapons in one) and the "Whipstaves" (again, a Bifurcated Weapon), allowing them to master a huge amount of weaponry and fighting styles. Ranged weapons aren't this numberous (bows, muskets and otsutsu guns alongside shuriken if you train in ninjutsu).

Multi-Melee Master / int_ecd2d797	comment	The Baldur's Gate series has two features that enable this. The first is the AD&D 2nd edition rule of weapon proficiencies, where you get (not too many) points to allocate between proficiencies in different kinds of weapons, with being proficient meaning you don't suffer penalties to attack but get to use your base chance to hit. And warrior classes (fighters, ranger, paladins, barbarians) can also put more than one point in the same class of weapons to get bonuses that depend on the level of specialization. (This is supposed to be simpler than having to add weapon skills to your attack roll.) The other feature are the quick slots for switching weapons, the number of which varies by class and is in truth mostly a function of how many other abilities there are taking up space on the bar at the bottom of the screen. Fighters are as their name implies, so they mostly have weapon slots there, whereas thief/mages get so many different kind of abilities that they only have one quick weapon slot in the first game, making the feature meaningless. The most obvious things to put in the slots if you have only two of them are one melee and one missile weapon, but warriors get so many that they can afford to equip different kinds of melee weapons, too — say, a sword as your usual weapon, a blunt weapon against The Undead, and a small but fast weapon for interrupting spellcasters.

Justified because they fight for the Goddess of Warfare, and as such are required to be Combat Pragmatists (that and they're so powerful that normal weapons are less than useless against them or the opponents they usually fight).
