All Weapons in Doom: The Dark Ages
In Doom: The Dark Ages, the Doom Slayer's arsenal comprises 23 weapons, including ranged firearms, melee weapons, a shield with runes, and temporary Atlan mech weapons.
You start the game with a Combat Shotgun, and all other weapons are acquired automatically during the campaign, usually through drop pods or story events, so you won't miss any of them.
Weapons can be upgraded at Sentinel Shrines with Gold, Rubies, and Wraithstones, enhancing damage, fire rate, ammo, or adding alternate modes. Each weapon suits specific enemies - energy weapons for shields, heavy weapons for armor, melee for resources - encouraging tactical switching.
