Do Viltrumites use weapons (guns, knives,sords, etc.)? I’m new to the franchise and regarding details like these I do not mind spoilers if any.

    Typically no, they’re so strong that they aren’t necessarily, and as shown by Cecile creating weapons stronger than them is pretty damn hard.

    Although one Viltrumite (Thula) does use a blade attached to her hair, and can you see her in the flashback in the show, but I think she’s it.

    Traditionally, no. We see in flashbacks in the show a viltrumite using a staff in combat and there is a specific individual with a knife at the end of their braided hair. But when you’re a living weapon, you don’t really need to use weapons

      I see. Maybe in extremely specialized situations, they may use weapons.

      Thank you for the response.

    the main form of viltrumite combat is “slam into it as hard as you can until it stops slamming back”. very effective, guaranteed results
