Mystic Ark/Weapons

Each weapon can be used by many characters, but there is a penalty on its attack value if the character class is not appropriate.

In order to prevent ambiguities, the characters are abbreviated according to their class, as follows:
 * H = the Hero, either Remeer or Ferris
 * N = the Ninja, Tokio
 * O = the Ogre, Kamiwoo
 * W = the Witch, Miriene
 * P = the Priestess, Meisia
 * G = the Grappler, Reeshine
 * T = the Tetsu-jin, Lux

Hero swords
In the first chapter, the Heroes travel alone, and they can equip any weapon found in there, although with some penalty.

Once the Heroes found the first Ark, they can choose to equip swords only.

Ninja sabers and bows
Tokio the Ninja is the only character who has no penalty using sabers and bows. He can also equip other weapon types without penalty.

Grappler nunchakus and boomerangs
Reeshine the Grappler can effectively fight with her karate (Japanese for "bare hands"). Nunchakus and boomerangs are the last weapon types that are found in the game.
