Has Durability Gauge

All melee weapons have a durability gauge on them. After each use (swings), it reduces by 1. As it usually takes more than 2 swings to completely down an enemy, a weapon with at least 2 gauges remaining should be chosen.
Strengthen Melee Weapons With Skills
Certain skills like "Craft Melee Upgrades" will let you upgrade to a better melee weapon, with greater damage and durability. It also restores all durability gauge for that weapon, so it is a good choice to have if you like your melee weapon to last longer in combat.
