Final Fantasy/Weapons

Weapons are the primary means of doing damage to foes. Each hero is able to carry up to four weapons at any time, but may only have one equipped.

Swords
Swords are among the most common weapons in the world. They are typically longer than daggers. Most swords are two-edged and used for slashing attacks rather than piercing ones. However, the term "sword" is a fairly loose one and covers everything from the standard short sword to the exotic katana and the holy masamune. The sheer variety of these weapons ensures that there is one for almost any occasion.

Axes
Axes are large, bulky weapons that use brute force to slam through enemies. Axes typically have a large, sharp blade attached to a wooden rod. They are commonly wielded with one hand, requiring an amount of strength exhibited only by Fighters, Knights, and Ninjas. They are among the most powerful weapons, though are highly inaccurate and tend to be slow.

Wooden Staves are extremely simple bludgeoning weapons that are often carried as symbols by apprentice mages. As weapons, they leave much to be desired. They are basically large sticks that are used to strike foes. These staves are about five feet long and four inches in diameter.

There are rumors of certain staves having magical powers, but if these potent weapons exist, they are certainly not held by the apprentices who make use of the wooden staff.

The Wooden Staff is a good starting weapon for the White Mage, though the Iron Hammer is decidedly better.

The Wooden Staff may be used by:


 * Fighter / Knight
 * Ninja
 * Black Belt / Master
 * Red Mage / Red Wizard
 * White Mage / White Wizard
 * Black Mage / Black Wizard

The wooden nunchaku is the most powerful weapon available from the smiths in Coneria. It consists of two wooden rods connected by a short chain, wihth one rod being held and the other swung by means of the chain. Unfortunately, it is an extremely difficult weapon to wield and requires years of practice to master. Accordingly, very few are able to make use of the nunchaku in combat without severely damaging themselves. The Black Belts are often seen armed with nunchaku.

The wooden nunchaku may be used by:


 * Ninja
 * Black Belt / Master
