Final Fantasy IV Easy Type weapons

The following is the list of weapons in Final Fantasy IV Easy Type. Some weapons can cast magic spells, this is done by using specific equipped weapons from the Item menu during battle.

Note: The attack and accuracy camps show how much of these stats is added to the character's main stat. Some weapons may reduce the stats, while some may not add anything at all. An unarmed character will have a hit rate of 50% and the max hit rate is 99%.

Several weapons are usable as Item Magic.

Note: All Bows equipped without arrows increases attack by 1. The attack formula with both equipped is (Bow attack power)/2 + Arrow Attack Power + Str/4. An unarmed character's attack power is Str/4 + Level/4, so there is the potential for a loss of attack power when equipping weaker Bow and Arrows.
