Weapons Guide - FFXII The Zodiac Age

All Weapons List

ONE-HANDED WEAPONS

The most versatile and plentiful weapons in the game, one-handed weapons have one distinct advantage over other classes: they allow the use of a shield.
This feature greatly enchances survivability, especially when coupled with the Gauntlets accessory.

Swords

Swords are perhaps the most basic one-handed weapon, offering a solid mix of speed, consistency, and power. Your character’s strength, the sword’s attack rating, and the enemy’s defense affect a sword’s damage potential.

Daggers

Daggers gain speed over swords at the expense of attack power. Several daggers also have useful additional effects. A dagger’s damage is determined by your character’s strength and speed compared against the enemy’s defense.

Axes & Hammers

The axe and hammer class offers huge attack power with a twist: the damage variance is far less consistent than compared to other weapons. For this class of weapons, the weapon damage is determined by the following: your character’s strength and vitality, the weapon’s attack rating, and the enemy’s defense. All axes add 6 to Evasion, while all hammers add 2 to Evasion. Axes also attack slightly faster than hammers.

Maces

The damage a mace inflicts is based on the weapon’s attack power, the magick power of the user, and the enemy’s defense. That said, a support character geared entirely for magick power rather than strength or other stats will make good use of a mace. The ability to use a shield also enhances the survivability of those characters. All maces add 4 to Evasion.

Measures

These peculiar weapons function much like guns in that damage is calculated based solely on the weapon’s attack power, completely ignoring the target’s defense. They differ greatly, however, in that the target is often inflicted with beneficial status effects like Protect or Shell.

TWO-HANDED WEAPONS

While two-handed weapons do not allow the use of a shield, they compensate for it by consistently inflicting more damage than one-handed weapons. Only axes and hammers approach the damage potential of two-handed weapons, albeit inconsistently. Although it would seem natural that larger weapons would attack less quickly, this is not the case.

Greatswords

Greatswords don’t start appearing until later in the game, but they are worth the wait. As the most consistently powerful weapons in FFXII, these swords are at home in any primary damage-dealing character’s hands.

Katana

While katana tend to have lower attack ratings than greatswords, they more than hold their own in damage potential thanks to frequent combo attacks. Katana score two or more hits per combat round far more often than any other weapon type (only ninja swords and poles are close). To further take advantage of this, equip the Genji Gloves (which increases the rate of combo attacks). Katana damage is affected by a character’s strength and magick power, the katana’s attack rating, and the opponent’s defense.

Ninja Swords

A less frequently seen partner to katana, ninja swords are almost as prone to combo attack as katana, which makes them terrific options for damage dealers. Ninja sword damage is calculated based on your character’s strength and speed, the ninja sword’s attack rating, and the enemy’s defense.

Spears

The brute force weapon of Final Fantasy XII. Spears factor in your character’s strength, the spear’s attack rating, and the enemy’s defense when calculating damage dealt. Most spears add +8 to Evasion.

Poles

Like katana and ninja swords, it’s easy to combo attack with poles on a frequent basis. Pole damage is calculated based on your character’s strength and the pole’s attack rating, like most weapons, but instead of checking these factors against an enemy’s defense, they are checked against the enemy’s magick defense.

Rods

Rods are similar to maces in that they are ideal for support/magick-oriented characters. They differ, however, in that their strength does not lie in actually striking the enemy; rods add magick power and extra MP to characters equipped with them. A few of them also add beneficial status effects on contact. All rods add 6 to Evasion. If you do choose to hit an opponent with a rod, your character’s strength, the rod’s attack rating, and the enemy’s defense are used to determine the damage dealt.

Staves

Staves augment magick users as well, but in a different way. Many staves actually power up certain elements. For example, the spell Blizzaga will cause far more damage when cast with an Ice Staff than without it. When used during melee combat, staves take into account character strength and magick power, staff attack, and enemy defense to determine damage. All staves add 8 to Evasion.

RANGED WEAPONS

This weapon class offers many benefits over more traditional fare, with a few negatives to balance things out. Ranged weapons prevent a party member from equipping a shield and, for the most part, they do not enhance Evasion in a meaningful way. They also tend to attack less rapidly than melee weapons. Finally, and this is where ranged weapons come up shortest compared to melee weapons, ranged weapons can’t combo attack.
Ranged weapons require ammunition: arrows for bows, bolts for crossbows, shot for guns, and incendiaries for hand-bombs. The ammunition will oftentimes inflict status effects on enemies, such as Stop or Disable.

Bows

Bows provide the most basic ranged damage option. These weapons allow attacks from a distance at the expense of using a shield. They also add no peripheral stats beyond their base attack, and have no additional effects.

Crossbows

All crossbows add 5 to Evasion. While crossbows do not possess additional effects, crossbow ammunition often does. Enemies cannot parry or counter crossbow attacks, although crossbow attacks may simply miss. Crossbow damage is determined by the attack power of the crossbow and bolt, your character’s strength, and the enemy’s defense.

Guns

Hand-Bombs

Hand-bombs serve as the ranged equivalent of the axe and hammer class. They can inflict big-time damage, or they may cause little damage at all. Hand-bombs take into account your character’s strength and vitality, the hand-bomb’s attack rating, and the enemy’s defense when determining damage dealt. The incendiaries that serve as hand-bomb ammunition often come equipped with useful additional effects. Like bows, hand-bombs do not provide an Evasion bonus.

If u enjoy this Guide, Don't Forget

[Redwood the Classic]

Another thing to note is that spears, poles, staffs and rods can hit flying targets. Just though that would be helpful.

[Dat DekuBoi]

Wow, so much detail. Almost like my guide to the equipment for the original game

[kazoomaster]

thx for the guide

[Echo-6]

The guide is very good, I would like to also have a Russian translation)

Yeah, looks good. I think you're missing few possible ways, but in overall it's good enough.
