Red (Weapon)

A Red (aka Red Weapon) is a long hacking, slashing, and/or smashing weapon intended to be used primarily with two hands. When used one-handed, a Red weapon does Blue damage. For a weapon to be classified as Red, it must be at least 48 inches long (4 feet, 122 cm) and weigh at least 24 ounces (1.5 pounds, 680 grams). When wielded with two hands, a Red weapon strike ignores armor, and two solid red strikes to a shield renders the shield "broken".
