![]() ![]() His attack animations are equally fast for all three weapon types, and there are use cases for different weapons at different points in the game. Vaan: dagger & shield - not only are axes and hammers randomized damage, thus far inferior to other weapon types in the long run, but Vaan has significantly faster attack animations for the dagger than for axes.īasch: situational. There's no "reward" for completing a board (in fact most will stay incomplete by necessity since there's mutually exclusive unlocks tied to Espers and/or Quickenings). Get what you think is best at the moment, on whichever board. #WHITE MAGE TIME MAGE VS WHITE MAGE MACHINIST LICENSE#It's mainly a caster that attacks only when absolutely necessary.Īlso, should I focus on completing one license board before moving on to the next? There's really no point in doing that. Without heavy armor you will never be a top-tier attacker, same as the Monk above. ![]() ![]() Gun whenever you want to fight, no question.įran: Archer/Red Mage -> Bow or Mace and Shield?The main weapon here is Burning Bow, due to the +50% fire damage boost on it. Penelo: White Mage/ Machinist -> Rod or Gun?Rods are not for attacking, really. You can get in for melee hits with a pole as needed, but it won't be amazing. Probably better than crossbows throughout, though Tula is a consideration and the various utility ammunition is nice in places.Īshe: Black Mage/Monk -> Staff or Pole?This will never be a top-tier attacker because it lacks heavy armor and Genji Gloves for the Monk, so you're probably better off sticking to staves to boost whatever element spell you're using against a given enemy. Most other spears aren't super hot, but they can be alright. Kumbha, the best katana, is also an amazing weapon, of course, but its main draw is its combo potential - in short fights, greatswords will probably be better.īalthier: Uhlan/Time mage -> Spear or Crossbow?Zodiac Spear is fine if you can get it. Katanas are great weapons for the most part, but at lategame you will obviously want to be using Excalibur + White Robes as much as possible, which is the single highest general hitter in the game. Shields become gradually useless as more and more enemies ignore evasion completely. Vrscika is available very early and very good if you get it first thing - but its value goes downhill from there, and it's always going to have the randomness factor inherent to hammers/axes so be prepared for those 0-damage hits.īasch: Knight/Bushi -> Sword and Shield or Katana? (or Greatswords down the line?)Whatever is best at the time. One of the many reasons why Shikari/Foebreaker is such a poor combo. Ninja swords are great primarily because of the Yagyu Darkblade + Black Robes combo for +50% damage, but without that, they're just weak katanas. Originally posted by Booty Prospector:Vaan: Shikari/Foebreaker -> Dagger and Shield or Axes and Hammers? (I know ninja swords are arguably the best but I don't have access to them yet)The best weapons for this aren't ninja swords, but Vrscika (a hammer). ![]()
