Anyone have a definitive list of long-range weapons?
This has been something of an odd topic for this game ever since the original release, and different sources still say different things. The only weapons every source says are long-range are bows, whips, and boomerangs.

If you are asking for specific weapon, just ask here and I can check for you. If you are interested in general I would suggest to download "FF5 Viewer" (from RHDN) and there all the hidden info will be revealed for each weapon. Also there is sort by category, alphabet,... for easy to search.
The advantage of "FF5 Viewer" is that the displayed info is from a ROM itself, not unknown i-net source!!!

Here is a sneak peak:
Name: Dragon's Whisker Index: 79 (4F) Weapon Type: Whip Price: 4400 / 2200 gil Attack Type: Aerial Attack Power: 92 Hit rate: 100% Crit rate: 0% Back Row dmg: OK Strong Vs: Dragon Element Type: Action (FX): 50% Magic - Entangle (whip) Damage Formula: 114 ($72) Boost: Stats - Special: FX after attack Used as Item: NO

That's about what I figured. I think the main point of confusion has been bells, I've seen a pretty even 50/50 split on if bells are long range or not. I'm guessing the Rune Chime is the source of that confusion.

Yes bells are quite confusing. The game has only 4 bells but they use 3 different formulas (meaning act as different type of a weapons):
* Diamond Bell and Tinklebell - the only true bells, they do magic damage
* Gaia Bell - nerfed version of Gaia Hammer with better accuracy, physical damage
* Rune Chime - is actually an axe - physical damage with Rune effect

Name: Rune Chime Back Row dmg: NO Action (FX): +10 Atk for 5 MP Damage Formula: 60 ($3C) Boost: Elements - Fire Ice Lighting Poison Holy Earth Wind
