Melee Weapons are non-magic striking weapons that are used in close- to medium-ranged combat. The defining trait of melee weapons is the fact that they don't consume ammo or mana upon use.
Melee weapons include Swords, Spears, Pickaxes, Flails, Boomerangs, Template:Desktop icon Yoyos, and other weapons which can be reused indefinitely without restriction.
Tools such as Axes, Hammers, Pickaxes, Chainsaws, and Drills also qualify as melee weapons.
