The following is a list of the [[Weapon (equipment)|weapons]] in the original (pre-''Zodiac'') releases of ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]''.

Most melee weapons have a chance of performing a random [[Hit (term)#Final Fantasy XII|hit combo]], while ranged weapons and measures can deal [[critical hit#Final Fantasy XII|critical hits]]. Some weapons cannot do either. Some weapons can [[Knockback (term)|knockback]] opponents while others cannot. Some weapons have an [[Elemental Affinity|elemental affinity]], which lets the wielder deal +50% the normal damage with attacks related to the element. Certain weapons can [[Add Status|inflict opponents with statuses]] on hit. Different weapon types vary in [[Charge Time|charge]] and action time. Characters perform a different [[Final Fantasy XII victory poses|victory pose]] after a [[boss]] battle depending on which weapon they finished the battle equipping.

{{See|Final Fantasy XII enemy equipment|Final Fantasy XII ammunition|Final Fantasy XII armor|Final Fantasy XII accessories}}

==Unequipped==
When unequipped, characters attack with "Unarmed". Unarmed uses [[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Unarmed formula|its own formula]] similar to the [[Final Fantasy XII weapons#Strength formula|Strength formula]] but without a +1 boost. Unarmed has a smaller Attack Power than the weapons that use the Strength formula making it an undesirable choice.

However if the player has the Brawler ability (equipped by purchasing the [[License Board/Original#Brawler|Brawler]] license and/or equipping the [[Amber Armlet (Final Fantasy XII)|Amber Armlet]]) then instead of using the Weapon's attack stat it uses <math>({\it Lv}+{\it Strength})/2</math>.

==One-handed weapons==
[[File:FFXII One-Handed Weapons Menu Icon.png|right]]
One-handed weapons are the most plentiful kind of weapon. Having a character use a one-handed weapon allows them to equip a shield with their other hand, giving them more evasion.

===Swords===
[[File:FFXII Swords Icon.png|right]]
Swords offer a balanced mix of speed, consistency, and power. Damage is calculated based on the character's strength, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's defense. All swords, except for the [[Stoneblade (Final Fantasy XII)|Stoneblade]], add 5 to evasion. Swords can knockback enemies, but are among the slower weapons.

Swords' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Strength)/256]</math>

===Daggers===
[[File:FFXII Dagger Icon.png|right]]
[[Dagger (weapon type)|Daggers]] do not deal as much damage as swords, but they make up for it in speed. Many daggers also have useful additional effects. Damage is calculated based on the weapon's attack, the character's strength and speed, and the enemy's defense. Daggers add 5 Evasion, except the [[Main Gauche (Final Fantasy XII)|Main Gauche]], which adds 34 Evasion. Daggers are the fastest weapons, with the least charge time to perform an attack. They cannot knockback enemies.

Daggers' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [[Attack Power * Random(1~1.125)]-Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Speed)/218]</math>

===Axes and hammers===
Axes and hammers offer a huge boost to attack at the expense of consistency, as the damage depends on a random variable. Damage is calculated based on the character's strength and vitality, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's defense. Axes attack slightly faster than hammers and both can knockback enemies.

Axes and hammers' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(0~1.111) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Vitality)/128]</math>

===Maces===
[[File:FFXII Mace Icon.png|right]]
Damage is calculated based on the weapon's attack, the enemy's defense, and the character's magick power, as opposed to the character's strength. As such, maces are recommended for magick-geared support characters. They cannot knockback enemies and have average attack speed.

Maces' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 +Magic * (Lv+Magick Power)/256]</math>

===Measures===
[[File:FFXII Measure Icon.png|right]]
Measures have low attack ratings, but ignore defense when used, damage being calculated solely on the weapon's attack. Measures also cause beneficial status effects on hit, so they are to be used to strengthen the party without using MP and should generally be switched out for more conventional weapons after being used. Measures add 25 evasion, which, along with the ability to equip shields, makes a character equipped with a measure difficult to hit.

Measures are effective when attacking characters to remove the [[Confuse (Final Fantasy XII status effect)|confuse status]] since measures do not deal heavy damage yet can confer beneficial statuses. Unlike other melee weapons, measures have a chance of dealing critical hits. Targets cannot parry or block measure attacks, but the wielder can still miss due to bad accuracy. Measures cannot knockback enemies. They have the same speed as hammers and maces.

Measures' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1\sim 1.125)]^2</math>

==Two-handed weapons==
[[File:FFXII Two-Handed Weapon Menu Icon.png|right]]
Two-handed weapons do not allow the equipping of a shield, but do offer more damage than one-handed weapons, and sometimes even attack faster.

===[[Greatsword (weapon type)|Greatswords]]===
[[File:FFXII Greatsword Icon.png|right]]
Greatswords attack faster than regular swords and are generally more difficult to come by. They deliver consistent heavy damage and should be equipped by the player's primary damage dealers. Damage is calculated based on the character's strength, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's defense. Greatswords can knockback enemies, apart from the [[Sword of Kings (Final Fantasy XII)|Sword of Kings]] and the [[Treaty-Blade]].

Greatswords' damage calculation:
:<math>{\it DMG} = [{\it AttackPower} * {\rm Random}(1\sim 1.125) - {\it Defense}] * [1 + {\it Strength} * ({\it Lv}+{\it Strength})/256]</math>

===Katana===
[[File:FFXII Katana Icon.png|right]]
Katana have lower attack than greatswords, but they make up for it with their higher chance of combo attacks. The player can take advantage of the katana's propensity for combos by equipping [[(Final Fantasy XII)Genji Gloves|Genji Gloves]], which increase the rate of combo attacks.

Damage is calculated based on the weapon's attack, the enemy's defense, and the character's strength and magick power. The last factor allows even a magick-geared character to become a melee damage dealer when equipped with a katana. Katana cannot knockback enemies and are average when it comes to attacking speed.

Katana's damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Magick Power)/256]</math>

===Ninja swords===
[[File:FFXII Ninja Sword Icon.png|right]]
Ninja swords have an even higher chance of combo attacks than katana, so using the same equipment strategy as with katana will yield even more combo attacks.

Ninja swords inflict dark-elemental damage and are thus useless against the [[undead]]. Damage is calculated based on the character's strength and speed, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's defense. All ninja swords add 20 to evasion. They cannot knockback enemies, but are among the fastest weapons; only daggers are faster.

Ninja swords' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Speed)/218]</math>

The [[Zodiac Spear (Final Fantasy XII)|Zodiac Spear]] is a rare weapon which has the highest Attack.

===Poles===
[[File:FFXII Pole Icon.png|right]]
Like katana and ninja swords, poles are prone to combo attacks. The player can equip the Genji Gloves to maximize on poles' combo attack potential.

Damage is calculated based on the character's strength, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's magick defense, making it especially devastating to [[Shell (Final Fantasy XII status effect)|un-Shelled]] enemies and enemies with low magick defense. Poles add 25 to evasion and can knockback enemies. Their attack speed is average.

Poles' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) - Magick Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Strength)/256]</math>

===Rods===
[[File:FFXII Rod Icon.png|right]]
Like maces, rods are well-suited to magick-geared characters since they increase the wielder's magick power and MP. A couple of rods grant beneficial status effects on hit. Rods may end up being a more efficient choice for casters later in the game as the MP bonuses they grant when multiplied by the [[Quickening (ability)|Quickening]] bonuses are more substantial than the small Magick Power bonuses granted by staves.

Damage is calculated based on the character's strength, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's defense. Rods add 6 to evasion and can knockback enemies. They are among the slower weapons and never deal hit combos or critical hits.

Rods' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Strength)/256]</math>

===Staves===
[[File:FFXII Staff Icon.png|right]]
Staves are well-suited to magick-geared characters, as some boost elemental magick spells; for example, casting [[Blizzaga (Final Fantasy XII)|Blizzaga]] with a [[Glacial Staff (Final Fantasy XII)|Glacial Staff]] will cause more damage than without it.

When used for physical attacks, damage is calculated based on the character's strength and magick power, the weapon's attack, and the enemy's defense. Staves add 8 to evasion. They are among the slower weapons and never deal hit combos or critical hits, but can still knockback enemies.

Staves' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Magick Power)/256]</math>

==Ranged weapons==
[[File:FFXII Ranged Weapon Menu Icon.png|right]]
Ranged weapons require [[Final Fantasy XII ammunition|ammunition]]; the player cannot even equip the weapon if they have no ammo available. Ammunition comes in infinite stocks. Though ranged weapons usually take longer to use and do not allow the equipping of a shield, they allow characters to attack from a distance, suited for those with lower defense. Ranged weapons enable one to physically attack a flying enemy.

A party equipped with ranged weapons tends to spread out more during battle, causing an enemy's area attacks to likely hit fewer of the player's party members. This is especially helpful if the enemy can use third-level black magick or cast spells like Disable and Stop in an area. Instead of combos, ranged weapons can deal [[critical hit]]s.

===Bows===
[[File:FFXII Bow Icon.png|right]]
{{See|Final Fantasy XII ammunition#Arrows|t1=List of arrows}}
Enemies cannot counter bow and arrow attacks, but their accuracy is reduced by 20% in bad [[weather]], like heavy rain and snow- and sandstorms.

Damage is calculated based on the character's strength and speed, the combined attack of the bow and arrow and the enemy's defense. Bows do not offer an evasion bonus. They cannot knockback enemies and are among the slowest weapons.

Bows' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [[Attack Power * Random(1~1.125)]-Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Speed)/218]</math>

===Crossbows===
[[File:FFXII Crossbow Icon.png|right]]
{{See|Final Fantasy XII ammunition#Bolts|t1=List of bolts}}
Enemies cannot parry or counter crossbow attacks, though the attacks have an increased chance of simply missing altogether, and their accuracy is halved in bad weather. 

Damage is calculated based on the character's strength, the combined attack of the crossbow and bolt, and the enemy's defense. Crossbows add 5 to evasion. They are the fastest ranged weapons, but cannot knockback enemies.

Crossbows' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Strength)/256]</math>

===Guns===
[[File:FFXII Gun Icon.png|right]]
{{See|Final Fantasy XII ammunition#Shots|t1=List of shots}}
Guns are the slowest weapons apart from the [[Wyrmhero Blade (Final Fantasy XII)|Wyrmhero Blade]], taking almost twice as long to use as others, but they make up for it by having perfect accuracy, even in harsh weather. Enemies cannot parry, block, or counter gun attacks. Guns also ignore an enemy's defense, meaning that damage is calculated solely by the combined attack of the gun and its bullets. Guns add 10 to evasion and can knockback enemies.

Guns' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(1~1.125)]^2</math>

===Hand-bombs===
[[File:FFXII Hand Bomb Icon.png|right]]
{{See|Final Fantasy XII ammunition#Bombs|t1=List of bombs}}
Similar to axes and hammers, hand-bombs offer the chance of heavy damage at the expense of consistency. They may inflict heavy damage or hardly any damage at all.

Damage is calculated based on the character's strength and vitality, the combined attack of the hand-bomb and bomb, and the enemy's defense. Hand-bombs offer no evasion bonus, never deal hit combos or critical hits, and cannot knockback enemies. They have average attack speed for a ranged weapon, and do not suffer a loss of accuracy in harsh weather.

Hand-bombs' damage calculation:
:<math>DMG = [Attack Power * Random(0~1.111) -Defense] * [1 + Strength * (Lv+Vitality)/128]</math>

==Dummied weapons==
[[File:Ashe army.jpg|thumb|130px|Ashe holding the Hero's Blade.]]
The following weapons are [[Dummied content|dummied out]]. Two out of the three weapons are fully functional.

Hero's Blade appears in Ashe's promotional poster as the sword she is wielding, and in the opening cutscene where [[Raminas B'nargin Dalmasca|King Raminas]] bequeaths the sword to [[Rasler Heios Nabradia|Prince Rasler]].

Flimsy Blade appears in many weapon shops displayed on racks and inside glass cases, and is also looted from a corpse and wielded by [[Basch (Final Fantasy XII party member)|Basch]] when he initially joins the party as a guest during the party's escape from [[Nalbina Dungeons|Nalbina]].
