The following is a list of weapons from Final Fantasy Tactics and the enhanced port, The War of the Lions. The extra items introduced in the PSP version received from Multiplayer Mode will be unlocked after the player finishes the game in the mobile version. After the credits have finished rolling, the game will auto-save and all the PSP items will appear in the Poachers' Den. Multiplayer-exclusive weapons cannot be thrown with the Ninja's Throw command.

Some weapons are found as treasures on the battlefields with the Treasure Hunter ability. For the exact location on the grid, see the location article.

A note on formulas: The first half of the equations can be further modified by various factors. The listed formulas below are the unmodified conditions. The formulas have a math.floor () component. Even if the the formulas appear that they could be simplified (example: Guns), they need to remain separated to distinguish the parts affected by the floor operation.

Axes[]

Axes can be wielded by squires (besides Ramza Beoulve), geomancers, and onion knights, though any job can equip them with the Equip Axes support ability of the squire (and other default jobs for units that lack squire).

While axes have higher attack power and can deal more damage than weapons available at the same time, their damage is random and they could do much less than other weapons. Axes cannot be used with Dual Wield, but can be used with Doublehand. Axes do not parry. Axes have a vertical range of 2 tiles up and 3 tiles down, and can be bought at castle outfitters.

Damage calculation

Because the damage varies, the preview damage feature is less accurate on axes than on other weapon types; in The Ivalice Chronicles, the game previews the average damage rather than the maximum like in previous versions.

Bags[]

Bags can only be worn by female characters regardless of job in most game versions, as well as onion knights in The War of the Lions. Bags are the only weapons that dragonkin can equip without an equipment ability. In the Enhanced Mode of The Ivalice Chronicles, bags can no longer be equipped by any female unit, and instead are exclusive weapons for the dragonkin, bard, and dancer jobs.

Bags deal random damage similarly to axes and flails. Bags cannot be dual-wielded, but can be used with Doublehand. Bags have a vertical range of 2 tiles up and 3 tiles down, and can be bought at outfitters not in castles, with the exception of the outfitter at the Clockwork City of Goug. Bags cannot be thrown.

They cannot be used with Dual Wield nor Doublehand, and they cannot be thrown. They have more range if it targets panels below the user's height. Weather effects and nighttime will penalize bows' accuracy. Bows have a horizontal range of 3–5, +1 for every two height levels that the shooter has over the target, but will reduce panels at 4 vertical range below an enemy, with none at 6 (firing upwards has limited range).

Guns[]

Guns can be wielded by chemists, orators, onion knights, machinists, and the sky pirate, though any job can equip them if the character has the orator's Equip Guns skill. Magick guns operate on a different formula than normal guns, as they use the user's faith for damage calculation. They will cast a level 1 spell 60% of the time, level 2 30%, and a level 3 10% of the time. Guns are one-handed but are incompatible with Doublehand and Dual Wield.

In the PS1 version, the names of the Blaze and Glacial/Glacier Guns were mixed up.

Guns have a horizontal range of 3–8 tiles, while having infinite vertical range and 100% accuracy if the line of sight is not blocked by an obstacle. The guns that can be bought can only be done so at the Clockwork City of Goug. The stoneshooter can be safely used with Reequip so long as the character switches the gun out before the start of the next battle, which will petrify them.

Normal gun damage calculation

Magic gun damage calculation

Where a is the Attacker, d is the Defender. The power of the attack scales based on chance: 60% of the time it will be 14, 30% of the time will be 18, and 10% of the time will be 24.

Despite guns not using the wielder's stats for damage calculation, their damage is still boosted by Attack Boost for normal guns and Magick Boost for magick guns.

Other[]

Characters that do not have any weapons equipped will fight unarmed for minimal damage, and damage can be boosted by having a greater bravery.

The damage formula is:

^[1]

If they have the Brawler support ability, innate to the monk job and also learned for 200 JP, damage is boosted, and the formula becomes:

A unit can be forced to fight unarmed if they are struck by the knight and nightblade's Rend Weapon ability or by the sword saint, divine knight, and Delita's ark knight's Crush Weapon ability, or if they had the weapon stolen from them. Unarmed has a vertical range of 2 up and 3 down.

Weapon	Atk	Def	Mag Pwr	Acquisition	Cost
Unarmed	0	0%	—	Anytime	—
	Default weapon equipped when not equip with a weapon.

Unused weapon types[]

Found within the weapons' graphical in-battle sprites within the game's data, there are two unused weapons among the various weapon and shield sprites. The first appears to be a boomerang, while the second is a doll. It is unknown if the doll would have been used as a weapon or a shield, as the graphics contain both intermixed. The reason for why these equipment pieces not appear within the final product is unknown, but it could be assumed that the developers could not make them return to the owner's hand after attacking a target, much like how boomerangs behave or the doll walking back to the owner.
