Basic Trope: A weapon wears out when used.
- Straight: In Alice and Bob RPG, the player can only use their weapons so many times until, eventually, it suddenly shatters, despite being fine a moment ago.
- Exaggerated: The weapons explode when breaking.
- Downplayed: Using a weapon enough times causes it to gradually do less and less damage.
- Justified: The sword is made of some special material that shatters with enough use.
- Inverted: Somehow, throwing a sword at an enemy causes it to gradually become stronger.
- Subverted: ???
- Double Subverted: ???
- Parodied: Alice smacks a single zombie with a sledgehammer; it crumbles to dust immediately afterwards.
