Man-Eater (weapon)

Man-Eater is a recurring weapon in the series, not to be confused with the Man Eater ability from Final Fantasy IX. It is often a dagger that inflicts critical damage to humanoid targets, and is usually gotten late in the game, making it a somewhat powerful weapon if used correctly.

Final Fantasy V
The Man-Eater is a high-ranked knife that can only be found in the Interdimensional Rift or by stealing them from Alchymia. It has an Attack of 86 and Hit Rate of 89, and also grants +2 Strength, Speed, Stamina, and Magic.

Final Fantasy VI
The Man-Eater is a high-ranked dagger that can only be used by anyone that can equip a dagger. It inflicts double damage to human targets, and grants 146 Attack and +10 Magic Evade. It can either be found in Darill's Tomb, or bought in Jidoor and Thamasa in the World of Ruin.

Final Fantasy XI
The Maneater in Final Fantasy XI is an axe rather than a dagger. It is a very powerful high level axe that has increased damage output at low TP, making it quite popular among Warriors. It can only be obtained through the Like the Wind and Totentanz ENM events.
