Melee Weapons
Like throwable weapons and sprinting, melee weapons temporarily reduce the player’s stamina and need to be recharged in the R.E.P.O. truck using Energy Crystals. Some weapons are more effective against specific monsters, but be cautious—some may also cause damage to you and your team.

Throwables
These throwable weapons consume some of the player’s stamina when used and need to be recharged with Energy Crystals once their energy runs out. The R.E.P.O. truck comes with one crystal installed, giving you some initial power, but the weapons aren’t built to last forever—so make sure to stock up.

Utility
Energy Crystals are undoubtedly the most important utility item, as they’re essential for recharging weapons in the R.E.P.O. truck after use. However, there’s also a variety of other useful items to take advantage of.

An item’s effectiveness depends on the situation and the type of monster you’re facing. However, as you become familiar with the locations and enemies, selecting the right combination should become easy—provided you have the funds.
Note: After completing a level, you can visit the Service Station to purchase items using the money earned from selling items collected in the previous level. However, keep in mind that the game always rounds down your earnings to the nearest thousand, so plan accordingly when hauling your scrap.
