Other than that though, save for the high MT, I would prefer using other weapons.ġB. Sol (MT15, Hit 80, Crit 0, WT 4 || Solar Thrust) // AN: Another late post-game weapon, it's main appeal is the high burst damage one can obtain when utilizing Solar Thrust. Ilwoon - While better than the Shadow Sword and it has some Combat Arts, the low Hit Rate makes it an undesirable weapon.ġA. If the player is using healers (as they should be), then any other weapon is straight out superior to the Mercurius due to better stats and combat arts. Mercurius - Fun for the novelty - its only saving grace is the fact it has Recovery. Shadow Sword - Fun for the novelty, but the low Hit rate and the chance to backfire makes it useless to me. Also, Roundhouse is practically the "Luna" skill from the general FE games. Silver Sword (Mt 12, Hit 100, Crit 5, WT 1 || Duelist Sword, Roundhouse) // AN: Can be used as a "budget Zweihander" that is also focused on increasing Avoid for skills. Otherwise, while having nice skills, it pales compared to general weapons like the Brave Sword or Zweihander.ĥ. Rapier (Mt 6, Hit 100, Crit 15, WT 0 || Anti-Cavalry, Anti-Armor, Subdue, Shadow Gambit, Destreza) // AN: One of the best weapons if on Alm's route and when facing down hordes of Armors and Cavalry. Always use the Zweihander over a Steel Sword.ģB. Brave Sword (MT 9, Hit 90, Crit 40, WT 0 || Penetrate, Grounder) // AN: An excellent weapon is focused on the enemy phase and having enemies come to the player.Ĥ. Zweihander (MT 13, Hit 85, Crit 15, WT 2 || Sunder, Penetrate, Tigerstance) // AN: Beats Brave Sword if focused on the player phase and using skills instead of doubling foes. That, and Priestesses are not really front-line fighters unless built for the role, or one does not want to use the Beloved Zofia for Celica.ģA. It is a shame it can only be used on the Priestess class, so one has to choose between the Ladyblade or one of the Rings. Ladyblade (Mt 10, Hit 95, Crit 10, WT 0 || Hexblade, Flamberge) // AN: Imagine Alm's Royal Sword catering to females and is more magic oriented. Thing is, it is only available late into the postgame.Ģ. (This is taking way longer than I originally anticipated.)ġ. Astra (MT 10, Hit 100, Crit 50, WT 2 || Astral Blade) // AN: A superior Brave Sword in my opinion, with an awesome weapon art. Also, I'm not counting Alm and Celica's unique swords. Here is my list, using maxed Forge stats, if applicable. I consider the Zweihander to be superior the to Steel Sword, but Steel Lances and Steel Bows work pretty well if in mid-game and does not have access to the cool endgame equipment. Hexlock Shield is great, Duma's Shield is Amiibo only (iirc), but it's good (high weight though), and Sage's Shield is mid Post-game, although it's pretty good too.Īnimus Ring is enemy only, and Keepsake ring is late-game, and doesn't really provide much. Very good if time is put into getting one. Hunter's Volley ORKOs most enemies with at least 1 crit.ĭracoshield is tough to obtain without some serious dedication, but it is possible to get. Mila's Bow is Amiibo only (iirc) and meh from what I've used of it, but the Killer Bow is great. The Zweih änder has the amazing Tigerstance skill, and is about the same cost to forge.ĭuma's Lance is great, the Emperor's Lance is DLC only but is very good, Kriemhild is enemy only, and the Rhomphaia is literally the worst thing ever, since it means giving up the valuable single Ridersbane (outside of DLC), which Alm's side really wants to have. It also lacks any notable skills besides Death Blow (Which the Steel Lance has a better version of and magic does a better job for). The Ilwoon has great might, but it's weight and low hit makes the Brave Sword a much better weapon than it. The Parthia is the same as the Mercurius really, but it does have a pretty cool skill at least. Getting a free one is great for the final battle and Thabes though, and it's probably the best of the Akaneian Regalia in SoV. Gradivus is very good, but still has the same problem as Mercurius in being very tough to forge. Mercurius is great and all, but using up 8 Gold Marks (iirc) in order to forge a Blessed Sword (Which is an absolutely great weapon for Celica's path) into one is pretty much only achievable with DLC in normal circumstances, or unless you're specifically going for it. To the point where they're only useful for making the optional boss easier on consecutive fights and for messing around. Astra, Luna and Sol are post-game, and late post-game at that.
