137-WEAPON DATABASE SNAPSHOT · JULY 2026
Gothic 1 Remake Weapons: Best Bow, Damage & Uriziel
Fact-checked: July 2026
Choose a weapon by damage type, requirement, availability, and proficiency—not one ambiguous ranking. Standard database rows put Crossbow of War at 120 and Bow of Death at 88; Uriziel is listed at 90 while drained and 190 total damage after its Chapter 5 charge.
Standard Gothic.Tools raw-damage leaders
These are standard weapon-table rows and exclude separately documented charged quest states such as charged Uriziel. They are not a guarantee that every entry is normally obtainable. In particular, Claw of Beliar is absent from the second remake database checked and may represent unused or datamined content.
- Crossbow of War — 120 Point damage
- Claw of Beliar — 110 Edge damage (availability not verified)
- Innos' Rage — 110 Edge damage
- Heavy Crossbow — 108 Point damage
- Lee's Axe — 105 Edge damage
- Red Wind — 105 Edge damage
Best bow: Bow of Death
Bow of Death is the highest-damage entry classified as a Bow in both current remake databases checked. It deals 88 Point damage and requires 73 Dexterity.
Gothic.Tools lists Cavalorn and Wolf from Chapter 1, while Colony Guide lists the same merchants in Chapter 5 and marks that record Not verified. The weapon and stats are strongly corroborated; the earliest merchant chapter is not settled. Distinguish bows from crossbows when comparing 'best ranged weapon' results.
Uriziel: drained row versus charged quest state
The standard remake-specific weapon row lists drained Uriziel at 90 Edge damage with 30 required Strength. The Chapter 5 quest route then documents a charged 190-total-damage state, which exceeds the standard-table leaders above. These are different states, not competing rankings.
Both values come from community records and can change with patches. Follow the dedicated guide for the Strange Sword acquisition, Xardas, old tower, Milten, ore pile, and Saturas sequence.
How to compare weapons
- Damage type: Edge, Point, Blunt, and Fire interact with different defenses.
- Attribute gate: compare required Strength or Dexterity with your current build.
- Training: proficiency and combat animations affect practical output.
- Availability: a lower-stat Chapter 1 weapon may be more valuable than an endgame database leader.
- Range and ammunition: bows and crossbows trade safety and positioning against ammo use.
- Patch status: community-datamined stats can change after balance updates.
Why the duplicate 147-weapons page was removed
The former weapons-list URL promised a ranked table of 147 weapons but only displayed a Coming Soon placeholder. It duplicated this page's intent and used an unsupported count.
That thin URL now redirects here. The replacement consolidates the search intent on one canonical weapons page and states which values come from the current community database.

Frequently asked questions
What is the highest raw-damage weapon in Gothic 1 Remake?
Among the standard Gothic.Tools weapon-table rows checked, Crossbow of War leads at 120 Point damage. The charged Uriziel quest state is documented separately at 190 total damage, so the answer changes when charged story variants are included.
What is the best bow in Gothic 1 Remake?
Bow of Death is the highest-damage weapon classified specifically as a Bow in both current databases checked: 88 Point damage with a 73 Dexterity requirement. Sources conflict on the earliest merchant chapter, so verify current stock in-game.
How strong is Uriziel in the remake?
The current Gothic.Tools weapon row lists drained Uriziel at 90 Edge damage and 30 required Strength. Remake quest guidance documents the charged state at 190 total damage. Treat both community-sourced values as patch-sensitive.
Are there 147 weapons in Gothic 1 Remake?
The old page claimed 147 without evidence. The current community-datamined Gothic.Tools weapons database lists 137 entries, so this page uses 137 as a patch-sensitive snapshot rather than a permanent official count.
