Fang which weapon to upgrade

If I were to turtle farm which I'm prepping for as I ready my party for Mission 64 , would those choices hold? I'm assuming the strategy will be used from the guide in the FAQ section by the user whose name I can't currently spell off the top of my head You'll definitely want to use Arthellinus's Guide. Fang should use the Dragoon Lance since taking out the legs can get complicated with Taming Pole.

Lightning and Snow must use Edged Carbine and Feymark. They are non-negotiable. If you are using Vanille, Belladonna Wand is still her best weapon. It really isn't very expensive to do so and you'll be collecting Ingots so you'll make the money back. User Info: Xetrev. While on this topic, in regards to Dragoon Lance. Can it only be bought from Gilgamesh Inc. Or can it be obtained elsewhere?

I think I read somewhere it's a drop from Mission 46 and all Titan Trial end fights drop a characters weapon , but have yet to actually confirm this. Before I go farming this stupid missions, anyone have any idea? For the power of man to make himself what he pleases means, as we have seen, the power of some men to make other men what they please.

It does drop from Mission 46, and trying to farm this mission is a complete waste of time. The drop chance is horrible. It is much more time efficient to just buy it.

Is there accessible information for the EXP totals needed for each weapon? The godly upgrade guide I'm using only has Lightning's weapon stats, and I don't want to fumble when maxing weapons.

There's too much EXP and gil at stake. User Info: TheGazatron. Use Arthellinus's Postgame Guide for weapon upgrading. More topics from this board General 7 Answers.

Quick Stagger is a great ability to have if you use Lightning primarily as a Ravager, which - during storyline gameplay, anyway - you probably are, particularly if you combine this with speed enhancing accessories. And if you're hellbent on using Lightning post-storyline gameplay I can't even muster up anything else to say about it, like, I don't know why you would want to go for this when there are so many more efficient Commandos for this kind of situation but whatever, don't say I don't cater to your whims, amigos.

During storyline gameplay, the Vidofnir looks pretty snazzy. But come on - it takes about 10 seconds to switch back to Synergist and reset those buffs, so don't let that sway you. The Hawkeye has the strongest Magic boost, and has a better longevity than the Vidofnir, because let's be real, you'll be dealing with battles quick enough to not have to bother with trying to get buffs to last longer.

Fang is primarily a brawler, so you want a weapon that boosts her Strength stat. The Taming Pole is the second strongest of Fang's weapons, but the deficit of 41 can easily be made up with Accessories. The only spear stronger than it is the Dragoon Lance, but that totally negates Fang's magic stat, ergo, Taming Pole is the best choice for Fang during both storyline and post-storyline gameplay.

The only downside is it comes with Stagger Lock , but that flaw is largely ineffectual; Stagger Lock may as well be non-existant when you have other party members without it. Besides, it isn't the Commando's job to be trying to Stagger, so don't let that put you off. I mentioned above that the Taming Pole was technically Fang's second strongest weapon - this is the first. But whilst the Dragoon Lance does carry a higher Strength stat boost, it also has Fettered Magic impairing it.

Oh, and during storyline, you'll definitely need to be making use of her Saboteur skillset. So why have I even bothered putting this on the page, you ask? Because you might choose to create this weapon very late in post-storyline gameplay, i. You might.

The Taming Pole will still do you fine, but the Dragoon Lance is a popular choice for the game's eleventh hour. Improved Debuffing II is pretty much all you need with Vanille. Her primary role should be as a Saboteur, both during the story and post-story gameplay. Particularly post-story when you're trying to farm by spamming Death. I could list other weapons that are quite decent but there is literally no point - she's really the only character with a very clear winner in the weapon department.

Vanille should be equipped with the Belladonna Wand. Snow is another character I suggest developing at least two series of weapons for, because he has two very distinct roles in any team set-up: a Damage Dealer or a Defender.

During regular gameplay, it's pretty much fine to just keep him with his Power Circle, but you should consider these options, too. When you need to use Snow as a Sentinel, the Umbra is the way to go, because it gives your whole party a Sentinel-pass in the form of Improved Ward , which boosts everyone's defence quite significantly.
