Hey gang! Hope you enjoy this NON-STORY/CHARACTER VIDEO??? HWAT is this ghast content??? Like I mentioned, this video took a hefty amount of research and consultation from my fellow FE peers, so I hope this is at least a decently accurate video discussion the best weapons in each game.

Man your thumnails are the coolest and the cutest how can you also make such good content 🤯
Honestly, now i am really looking forward towards the next vid, about strongest weapons.
Oh and also! Could you please share your secret to HD Radiant dawn footage? It looks amazing and i wonder if it would be possible to play without an extremely buff computer-
The iron bow plus is a stronger contender but I think the steel one is better because of its 55 use over its 45.
It has higher might. The heaver weight is a downside but with gardening and certain skills can somewhat mitigate that.
Do you plan on doing the opposite the worst and unholy weapons even wieldable by units
@@zenronez1158 The main reason I put Iron Bow + over Steel Bow+ is because i really, really value the higher hitrate on the iron bow. At 3 range the ironbow+'s hit is just more reliable than steel bows. There are few things more painful than missing something crucial in Maddening. And in the early game, the Mt difference isn't terribly huge as they're not going to double.
I actually am considering that list too. Something like the "worst best weapons" lol
@@matmil5 I have a friend who records all the Tellius footage haha.
Bows in almost every FE game: "this weapon sucks because I can't counter at 1 space"
Bows in Gaiden (+ remake) and 3H: "Look at me, killing people from the other side of the map"
I wish they at least gave bows the 2-3 range as a default to the GBA/Telius/NDS games while long bows have 3-5 range
bows are pretty good in fe6 and fates though, they suck in most games bc the game isn’t designed to reward pp as much as ep
The very important distinction is when the bows can go above 2 range without being a gimmick weapon (cough Awakening/Fates Longbow cough).
Fates Shining bow said hi! Also the problem with bow is not only because they can't counter at 1 range. A lot of time archer are just kinda thrash in damage department. Fates is probably best time where they make archer really good without being stupid because Quickdraw mean they deal damage consistently.
@@riqua27 Right, Fates really accentuated the archer’s strengths as a player phase unit, so they at least perform that niche well
Fe2: holy bow
Fe5: that asbel tome
Fe6: killer lances
Fe7: hand axe
Fe8: Seth
Edit: I matched him a lot huh
-my choices
Grafcalibur is the name of Asbel's Prf BTW. Just clarifying.
Yes. Seth is indeed the strongest weapon of FE8
Swords beat axes. Axes beat lances. Lances beat Swords. Seth beats everything.
Seth lmao.
You can't beat Seth, can't you?
As an Apotheosis/Maddening/Lunatic player you need to learn brave weapons are going to be your new waifu whether you like it or not.
That and high might lances for Ferdinand and Seteth.
@@Aurirang Yes. Also, Ferdie's Swift Strikes.
@@Aurirang And Sylvian
Cyril too because of the really op bow skill i gegts the makes im always double
@@yatiro2510 oh how I hate Cyril but love his C+ bow skill.
"Best fe16 weapon is Iron Bow+" I felt that. Having played a fresh save Maddening Blue Lions run, Ashe and Felix put in a lot of work in the bow department. Honestly, Training Gauntlets stood on equal footing for me, as it was the one weapon I could have a unit carry that allowed them to attack and not get bogged down by weight. I did some really risky plays is chapter 3 which required Byleth to tank a Lot of dudes with just the Training Gauntlets + Leather Shield. I'll never forget what it did for me.
>ashe
Yeah you have no right to say anything
@@powerfulberry237
Ashe isn't a bad unit, you know. He's just an average unit surrounded by better ones. There's a difference between being bad and being just plain average
Bows are so good in 3H that I did a whole Blue Lions run with only bows as my only weapon. I named my Byleth as "Bow only" and it was the only physical weapon I could use. I even chose to not use magic lol. Just bows, because they were that good with curved shot, hunter's volley etc.
@@powerfulberry237 let people like things
@@l.n.3372 no, he’s a bad unit surrounded by average units, especially in the BL house
Nice video, Ghast. There is misinformation on the FE4 section though. When a weapon gets 50 KOs, it gains the critical skill, allowing the unit using it to crit at all (skill%). The weapon gains 1% crit for every kill AFTER 50 and doesn't get to 50% (+skill%) crit until the weapon has 100 kills.
ooooh. thanks for clarifying!
@@Faerghast the full crit formula with a >50 kill weapon is skill+(weapon kills-50 (min1, max50))+combination bonus(20 if sibling/lover is adjacent)
Question. Does a weapon with 50 kills stack with a character that has the crit skill?
@@yoel9396 no. 50 kills basically gives you the crit skill.
@@gameboyn64 thank you
Glad you decided to to focus on the most useful weapons over the strongest
Love this because it isn't just "Oh this S rank weapon is best". Takes practicality into play
Especially in Fates when they lower your stats when used or equipped.
Regarding the topic at hand, I'll say 3H's Rapier is easily the best sword in the game for similar reasons why in FE1 it's far better than the Armorslayer. Plus, it gets 45 durability and 20 crit after being forged, which is crazy good and useful.
Yea I think the wo dow idk can't spell it just because it's dumb High crit and with abilities you can easily get one shots with 80 and 90 percent crit on maddening and 100 crit in any other mode
The rapier is so fucking good, it's such a good boss killer even when not horses or knights and even when forged just works as such a low weight weapon . Honestly, the fact that you can use it with such a low weapon rank and that literally everyone can use it is the best part
Facts, rapier+ is amazing to begin with and the effectiveness against both armor and cavalry breaks it
One of the best things about it is that it only uses regular smithing ore instead of umbral steel, mythril, or wootz steel which are much harder to come across.
I used the rapier over the swords with more crit one time because it was lighter
I don’t think this is the best weapon in Three Houses, but it’s my absolute favorite. The Rapier is found around chapter 8 in Manuela and Hanneman’s paralogue, so it can be easily missed. However it makes up for it by having armour and cavalry effectiveness at E rank as well as being easily forgeable and repairable, it also has 40 uses (45 if it’s forged). It is also immensely superior to the Armourslayer and the Horseslayer with its lower weight and higher accuracy. I just slap it on my favorite units and they become killing machines.
You can get it even earlier from the pagan altar at abyss.
As early as Chapter 3, meaning mr death knight has another thing to worry about.
I like seeing my Marianne do 60 damage on Fortress Knight with Soul Blade during mid game too.
Horseslayers aren't very good weapons imo
“No reason to never not have in the inventory, ever.”
Just an all-time great sentence right there.
There's really not any good reason to not have Raijinto in Ryoma's inventory. But go figure that the signature weapon of arguably the best unit in the game (especially in Birthright) would be a contender for the best weapon in the whole game
Because it's literally a triple negative or because it's a great line?
Either way it works for me.
@@ResurgentRavenI think I'm missing the context. Is he talking about a bad weapon here? When's the time stamp? Don't wanna rewatch the video
Nvm I found it thanks to the first reply. It's at 16:55 regarding raijinto. But regardless, doesn't that line mean it's *pointless to have weeaboo lobster sword in ryoma's inventory?*
For Awakening, I'd like to make a case for Celica's Gale. Yes, it's one of the randomly-obtained weapons from glowing spots or barracks events, so it's not reliably available... but it IS a tome with double the attacks, which pairs very nicely with the many offensive Skills in the game, and it's not even limited to Dark Mages and Sorcerers. Combine that with Vantage and/or Wrath, and you can frequently just delete units on Enemy Phase before they get to attack you. (Waste is similar, but less accurate and doesn't show up in shops until lategame.)
EDIT: so what you're saying is that Curved Shot is the best equipment in FE16
I stopped the video to read the comments before watching it and I would 200% agree on Curved Shot (+ Close Counter ability) being the best equipment
(another thing that might be worth it (caveat: I've only played Normal Casual, but I've played 645 hours of it) is Healing Focus; I've got it running on Lysithea at the moment (mostly because I thought that since she'd already reached the epitome of magical success, that running a stupid non-magic build on her would be funny (tbf, Assassin + Killer Knuckles + Priest Hanneman adjutant is surprisingly viable for a deliberately stupid build))))
Yeah in TH bows are just in-general CRACKED as all get-out. I'm doing an all-bow run of the game, and so far everyone has just melted through everything.
And for Magic units, just give them magic bow and they go IN
I did a bow only run of Blue Lions! It's a super fun run, and the bow is so good.
I’m thinking now about whether Blue Lions or Golden Deer is better for a bow only run. I guess it’s Golden Deer, given only Raph has the skill debuff for bows there. I just remember that Mercy also has that Waning Shot budding talent and I wonder if you can really use that art in Maddening.
@@PineappleLiar
I don't think there's any run that's better for it tbh. I did it with Blue Lions and just replaced units who aren't best suited to bows, and added other bow units. I recruited Petra and Leonie, as well as Shamir and Catherine. And since I was using bows only, I benched magic based units.
Golden Deer certainly have more bow units at base (Claude being a bow based wyvern definitely helps). But I was also doing an infantry class run with bows only, so I chose to go for Blue Lions since Dimitri doesn't use a wyvern post time skip.
IIRC among the Blue Lions (that can be recruited, anyway, I'm 645 hours into my first (GD) route because I'm a scrub playing on Normal Casual and I'm currently cheesing the day of Part 2 10th day of 5th moon because I want Bernie to try out something other than Bow Knight before we do her and Petra's paralogue) Sylvain and Annette are the only (again, recruitable) ones with a bane in bows, and obviously I don't know about Dimitri and Dedue off of the top of my head haha.
Oh, and naturally the Golden Deer are marketed by Rhea as more of a bow/hit-and-run focused faction, but you know, feel free to completely ignore her advice, it's not like she's a playable character anyway haha
I think Sigurd's silver sword that he got from Arvis deserves an honorable mention, don't even have to try to get 50 kills as Sigurd stomps everything, carries over to Seliph so he can stomp gen 2 even harder
For me Sigurd’a Silver sword is in my opinion the best non-Legendary weapon in Fe 4. If only for how early you get get and is realistically the first weapon you will get 50 kills with(something that is a lot harder than it seems).
True
Best thing is that it's always a guarantee.
Since the Brave Sword requires the survival and recruitment of Ayra, Chulainn and/or Lex. Despite how simple it is to do so, it's not entirely a guarantee.
It's arguably the best sword in first gen, but by second Gen the Brave Sword will have plenty of kills.
But even in first gen giving the Brave Sword to Sigurd in many cases is better than the Silver Sword. Can't deny how cracked the Silver Sword is for him tho.
The brigand slayer 9000
I mean Sigurd doesn't need the brave sword to finish enemies, the silver sword is more then enough to one round everything, but It still can be nice as it allows you to not take any counter, plus it's infinitely better in the arena, and Seliph definitely benefits a ton from the brave sword in the early game and even in the late game, where you have to fight holy weapon users. the High accuracy also really helps. The brave sword is also a pretty good crutch for training up units who are pretty meh
At first I thought that for FE7 you would list Luna, but after thinking about it I have to agree with the Hand Axe. While Dorcas and Bartre are not all that good, they can still do fairly well against the weak ranged characters early on, and the later paladins and heroes (and Hector, of course) can still use them freely even going into the endgame.
Luna is arguably the outright strongest in the game since its like a pseudo killer tome and then after canas hits 23 magic it technically is the strongest. But it's usually strongest on Athos with his 30 magic. Luna 2 stronk
Also thought the same in regards to Luna in FE7. Then I remembered literally two units can use the tome and one of them is missable.
@@coryfusting9294 and the other one comes in the last chapter so yeah. It has good availability if you don't miss Canas but it's not as universaly useful
That and Flux gets the job done against the majority of the FE7 enemies. Luna really only shines in the final chapter on Athos, which is way less than the game-wide use the Hand Axe gets
Dark was broken in 7 in general. Luna having high hit and 30 crit (both nerfed in fe8) and Nosferatu healing 100% of damage dealt were both ridiculous. Even promoted at level 10, Canas could tear through the rest of the game almost by himself.
The Light Brand is a pretty strong contender in FE5. A Magic Sword with really high Attack Power that also serves as a built in Elixir in a Pinch.
It's pretty much essential to Leif's survival.
The light brand (and leif in general) becomes pretty obsolete after manster. It's not really comparable to graphcalibur
@@vishuprathikanti9352 it also butchers his speed. Unless he levels build it’s literally impossible for him to ever double with it.
@@Neogears1312 with the speed ring he doubles a lot of the armors in manster but yeah not a great weapon after
Tbh all iron weapons + are really good in 3 Houses
I also feel like Sigfried is better than Raijinto because playing through Conquest Hard mode, I always felt like "how would I do this without Sigfried and Xander". In Birthright Lunatic, you don't even need Ryoma to melt enemies.
I'm sure the idea is that the Raijinto in a vacuum is a much better weapon. It joins earlier and is statically much better (avoid>crtevade, str>def). Half the reason the sigfried seems better is because it complements Xander's design as a physical wall so in specific instances, it performes extremely well. The raijinto on the other hand is a much more flexible weapon that significantly more dominate most of the time but lacks defining moments due to not having as specific niche.
@@gameboyn64 I guess but Raijinto is a Ryoma only weapon still so it's not like the flexibility helps.
I feel like he should have split up fates into 3 sections
@@serpent2776 by flexibility, i mean that ryoma can be used in more situations and against more enemy types than xander. Xander isn't as good against enemies that use magic and has significantly less presence on player phase.
@@gameboyn64 I don't think Ryoma did better againts Mage User compare. He might didge better but in the end you still playing with fire In Fates RNG. Also Xander have less presence in player is just not true. In fact i would argue Xander is a better player phase unit than Ryoma. Cause not only he has option to one shot most enemies. He also had access to shelter strat. Which mean Xander can work as both combat unit and utility unit.
@@riqua27 the point about magic is not that ryoma loves fighting mages, it's that str and avoid does something where as def and crit avoid doesn't do anything hence the phrase "more flexible". Also, i don't know about your xander, but xander from my experience only one shots a handful of enemies for a while, then requires a brave sword, effective weaponry or a dual strike to kill most other things. Xander by the way only has 2 more base attack than ryoma so most things he is one shoting ryoma can do so as well.
I'm still annoyed that in Awakening, Walhart doesn't get the Armsthrift Skill.
Walhart doesn't matter and even more so is a skill as pointless as Armsthrift
@@powerfulberry237 if you get someone to a luck stat of 50 or higher (Limit Breaker skill or otherwise) you can slap on a maxed out brave weapon or Alm’s blade/Sigurd’s lance/Hector’s axe/Innes’ bow/Aversa’s night that will never break. Granted you could solo the final chapter well before that point but grinding Awakening was about the only thing I did as a kid.
@@powerfulberry237 oh boy, Armsthrift + Dragonstone+ with 50 luck TEARS any enemy. Why Nah was cracked when I paired Nowi with Donnel. Sol is also a nice skill to have for sustainability
@@powerfulberry237 You really don't know?
3 words:
Unlimited Durability Weapons.
Seriously, it's really broken, and I love it.
>Laughs in Action Replay Codes
i think that the raijinto is an obvious no brainer in birthright, but i just feel like highlighting the barb shuriken for being another insanely powerful tool. it has the same might has the iron shuriken (4), it gives no penalty other than -10 avoid, grants +2 speed, and quadruples on crit alongside its 25 crit buff. this just makes anyone with it a critting machine at 2 range and can be gotten as soon as you upgrade your armory and have the money to buy it (which you can also potentially just grind anyways, since this is birthright).
c rank can take a bit to reach, but its easy enough and sees effectiveness throughout the whole game. if you dont kill, you also debuff the foes to sweep in player phase, so there really is little to no drawback in using it.
the drawback to using barb shuriken is you’re sacrificing avo and mt (forged iron shurikens rule lmfao) for something that isn’t inherently necessary and also overall more pricy. a barb shuriken is 3x the amount of an iron shuriken, meaning for the price of a barb shuriken you can have a 6 mt iron shuriken. not to mention you can infinitely forge iron shurikens while you are capped without insane luck with barbs. you’re also discounting the fact that crits just aren’t necessary at all. if you can guarantee a one round, which is super easy in BR, why would you ever need to crit?
Man, Nosferatu is so OP, I remember beating lunatic+ final chapter only deploying Robin and Morgan because everyone else would get absolutely obliterated by that chapter, even Panne and Lonqu as dragon riders who were generally super strong. I'd give hand axe an honorable mention in that game as they are great with canto dragon riders, but nowhere close to nosferatu
Killing edge over killerlance while yes you will use the killer lance more often Rutger+killing edge is the only reliable Option to kill a lot of early game bosses especially Henning . When you get the killer Lance the hardest part of the game ist mostly behind you.
There is actually one more option to deal with Henning that is technically more reliable than Rutger w/ Killing edge. It's super cheesy, but since Henning starts with the Steel Blade equipped instead of the hand axe, you can slowly chip him down at 2 range with 95 base hit Fire tomes as well as some Javelin chip from Marcus or Zealot. As long as you rescue drop the units out of reach, Henning will never switch to his handaxe. It can take a while but it's the only guaranteed safe way to deal with him.
@@DuelingShade while i had to do this once to and yes in theory its more realibale its a not fun at all and extremly slow lugh has like 8 magic at that Point in the game fire has 5 might vs 2+3 res on hennig so you deal 8 damage every turn while hennis is healing 3 i think
@@oKnuTo Yes
Byleth gets the sword of the creator but he's like nah imma use an iron bow
Nosferatu in Awakening never has been so pog since it is available in unlimited supplies with enough money available. Even Sacred Stones doesn't do something like this
Aversa's Night is just a better version of it, so give it to a unit with Armsthrift and let carnage unfold.
Waste and Celica's Gale are also really good.
@@AkameGaKillfan777 Aversa's Night is balanced out by being rarer and half durability. The latter is pointless with Armsthrift, sure, but that, and Celica's Gale, are only available via event tiles/barracks so you might complete the game without even having one of either
@@ryanprjgamingchannel9437 I think you can get a Celica's Gale as a renown bonus
@@AkameGaKillfan777 oh yeah but you need to play and beat the game several times or farm actual skrimshes
@@ryanprjgamingchannel9437 Actually you can do optional battles to boost it.
Great Video! I like that you clearly put a lot of thought into each choice, in both availability and usefulness against common enemies in each game
I hear you, putting that Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins music at the end. This man has some good retro GB taste.
Gotta say, love these trivia ish videos Ghast! Good frequency of uploads and length of videos themselves. Keep it up Boss
I've gotten an impressive amount of use from Forged Training Swords in FE3H. Marianne as a Falcon Knight just mows down enemy units with Soulblade, and Catherine, Yuri, and Cyril are so fast with that weapon that they easily double enemies.
(Granted, I don't do maddening; I prefer to keep my sanity and if I wanted to pull my hair out, I'd play Mass Effect on Insanity difficulty from ME1 to ME3)
Magic Combat Arts on units with good magic tend to do more damage than tomes quite often. Even on Maddening they're really good.
Considering three houses Combay Arts eat stronger weapons' durability for lunch I can agree with the Iron Bow+. The iron weapons are great for being long lasting for combat arts in my experience. Also, the Killer Bow in SoV is really over the top. In the area where Alm has to fly solo at the end he tanked that hole area with just the Killer Bow.
Not really on topic for this video, but just wanted to say I really enjoy your content - especially the character analysis ones. Also really hoping one day you'll decide to do some more "This is what happens in Fire Emblem ___" videos. Those are my favorite, and I'd really love to see one about the Jugdral or (my personal favorite) Tellius games. Either way, glad you keep making great stuff, and I hope you're successful with it!
I really like videos similar to this, I hope to see different topics in this style. Great job!
For me, I'd say for the ones I played
Awakening: gradivus, high mt and 2 rng especially with limit break, armshrift
Fates: omega yato
Echoes: killer bow
I disagree with Fates and Awakening. For Omega Yato, this weapon is here only for two chapter in one of the worst game of the series. Nosferatu is from what I know (I am not sure about that, but I know that apparently, Nosferatu Odin can be really good)
for Awekening, no weapon can rival with Nosferatu for me, it allow you to ennemy phase without sol
@@saintekweena795 fair point, but nosferatu is pretty shaky with hit rates from what I remember
@@saintekweena795 Nosferatu isn't exactly a good weapon in later parts of Awakening when you can just make every mage a Dark knight for the Lifetaker skill and then use a stronger tome for better damage and still heal a lot.
@@saintekweena795 Nosferatu was nerfed quite a bit in Fates however. Can't use skills or crit with it. And then there is also it only being on Dark Mages/Sorcerers or those with the Shadowgift skill.
Atlas+Dread Fighter loop into Bow Knight+Killer Bow+Hunter's Volley= fun
Very well made and well informed video, all the presented here are accurate and hardly have an real contender. Keep up the good work
Love the video and the thumbnail especially!
"Marth is also the best character in the game."
Now that's a phrase I never thought I'd hear someone say unironically in my life.
Though I've most _certainly_ had more than my share of fun with the Killer Bow in my many plays of Echoes, it's so disgustingly strong that I've actually taken to banning it from my more recent runs (and with it, sometimes archers in general) just so I can end up doing different stuff. Most of it bizarre and funky stuff, like Mercurius Luthier or Saint Palla, and other things of that sort.
This is a wonderful idea for a topic!
The gamer Edelgard pic always melts my heart. She's just perfect
She is so cute, I want that as a plushie. 😍
Getting excited to watch the video, I'd guess that for Three Houses the best standard weapon is either the rapiar or killer knuckles, just based on how good they are throughout the game. Plus they're easily repaired.
For special weapons I'd guess the Inexhaustible which is so freaking powerful no matter the playthrough.
For Relic weapons my guess is Amyr or the Sword of the Creator based on what you prefer: arguably the best weapon attacks for their range vs the best Combat Art.
Now that Engage is out I felt the want to add this, the best weapon in FE17 is absolutely the Levin Sword. 1-2 range, good mt, good availability, as you can forge a Steel Sword into a Levin Sword rather early on, and you get a free one in chapter 12, and extremely cheap forging costs that makes a Levin +3 practically free. Pair this with the presence of Sword Power from Roy, and the weapon's availability on Mage Knight and Griffin Knight, and you get a 1-2 range killing machine with lots of hit, that completely bypasses the high defence stat of most enemies throughout the game's duration.
4-5 minute gang represents.
(Also where are you getting those mini Edelgards? They're super neat.)
I think the Brave Sword is often overlooked in Echoes. Sure the Killer Bow is the BEST weapon, but you just get a brave sword if you kill Deen and it's not too expensive to forge. I usually give it to Saber and watch run around with 60+ crit killing everything
And unlike the stat-based combat arts in 3H, in Echoes each individual point boosts damage dealt. Vengeance being the only exception.
My personal pick for FE2 best weapon/equipment is the Speed Ring (Because set-40 SPD and +5 MOV is insane), but holy bow is definitely a really solid weapon and the 100 accuracy immediately fixes the issue archers have - being unable to hit their targets.
I see you with that Super Mario Land 2 music in the outro 😎
Your emulation of these games (specifically Fates and Radiant Dawn) looks incredible! Do you do anything to your settings besides just setting the resolution higher?
Overall, I say that Iron Weapons could be considered an honorable mention.
There's been countless playthroughs on multiple titles which I use iron weapons all the time and when I need that extra punch, the silver and sacred weapons.
It's so reliable since they give you extra hit and avoid points and ate affordable.
I think the AS advantage training weapons can help with in 3H is top tier value. I’ve rocked them the whole game. Nice vid still!!
In 3H, bows are just a must have in maddening, curved shot is wonderfull, and flying ennemies are insane.
Also in Fates to choose a non personnal weapon I would say levin sword. The fact that you don't have this -5 spd on a ranged sword is wonderful, it makes units like Corrin or (swordmaster) Odin really strong. I'm using it a lot in Lunatic.
Yeah but in Fates, magic weapons can't crit or trigger skills. It's a draw back for having unlimited 1-2 range.
@@l.n.3372 I know, the weapon is balanced, but still it's really powerful in my opinion. It counters snipers, and is really cool to setup kills on strong units.
@@dantefilsdesparda
Yeah the magic weapons in Fates were fairly balanced. Free 1-2 range with few drawbacks is always good.
I always gave the shining bow to Niles, the bolt axe to Camilla, the Levin sword to Corrin, and the bolt naginata to Hinoka.
Is curved shot really that necessary? I only ever used it if I had to for a certain unit, but things like break shot and especially hunters volley proved way more useful
@@conniefan123
Curved shot: gives extra accuracy (important in maddening mode or just anytime tbh), it gives 2-3 range (great for chips that allow you to finish off the enemy slowly), and it's pretty cheap (doesn't cost much weapon durability). It's the ultimate early game skill that never becomes bad, and is always valuable in those situations.
Another great video! Also the chibi Edelgard on the thumbnails are so wholesome n cute!
Dude, I've played every game in the series and I agree with just about all of the choices. Especially the iron bow+ in Three Houses. That wooden and iron piece of fletcher made craftsmanship is the reason I got through Maddening mode early game. Curious question: What do you think is the best/most underrated staff in the franchise?
Ngl Killing Edge in Fe13 is what i got the most use out of... is that partially because i maxed out a Donnel with Armsthrift and Sol? Yes.
Great video!
Why is no one talking about how adorable the thumbnail is😩
tiny gamer gorl El is the highlight of my year🤧
In FE11 there is a few weapons that make H5 much less painful: Bows (for those pesky fliers) Forged Ridersbanes, a Forged Wing Spear, and a Forged hammer (less necessary but in a pinch it may be key to avoid a counter)
I think you could make a pretty solid case for the steel lance+ in three houses with it's great early output when used in combination with tempest lance
New weapon video hype!
While my experiences are limited, I found the Levin Sword in Awakening to be quite useful. Granted, it's kinda hard to get a hold of, but I enjoyed it all the same 😁
Levin Sword is jacked in that game. Theres only like 4 characters that dont have the magic growth necessary to make it viable. You could even argue that because of most enemies having generally low Res they can still use it.
I say this without a single smidge of irony, but the best weapons in Fire Emblem Fates are the joke and character (not prf) weapons.
The 'parasol' alone is a 1-2 range sword that can crit/activate skills and it's like E or D rank
Then you got the raider weapons that are e rank, stronger than bronze weapons, give +3AS, and make clothes explode.
@@gameboyn64 They make clothes explode if they have the weapon triangle advantage against their opponent, so pretty much like Sophie's personal ability "Mischievous" only in weapon form.
Asvel would be terrible at capturing anyway, since even with capped speed he couldn't go past 7 AS with Grafcalibur's wt factored in(capture attempts halve most of your combat stats), and most of his damage comes from crits enabled by doubling.
Also Rutger joins with a killing edge in ch 4, and swordmaster getting a 30 crit bonus makes killing with it much more reliable than anything the killer lance can attain. It carries you through like half the bosses in that game.
I can agree with most other picks, though. I feel like the iron bow+ in 3H is more of a crutch than anything else, the better you get at maddening the less you use it, though it's not easy to point at any single weapon that is undeniably better. The Aymr would be a safe replacement pick, but in practice you don't get to use it that much.

I was wondering if you'd place Raijinto as the best weapon of FE14 (wasn't sure if you'd allow prfs) before watching, and I'm glad you did, 'cause it is amazing; it gives Ryoma all the stat boosts he cares about, and is 1-2 range (also it's really pretty). I am curious what you think the best weapon of Conquest is, since you don't have access to Raijinto.
Speaking of prfs, for FE5, while the Grafcaliber is amazing, I think the best weapon is Vouge (Butj), aka Osian's prf. It's 1-2 range, has ridiculous crit and accuracy, you get it from the start, and you can get a replacement. Also Osian's high Con lets him capture enemies. It's my go-to weapon in that game.
really neat video, also whats the music in the outro?
Yeah, definitely can see the iron bow for TH. In my Maddening play through, everyone had either magic or a bow.
I remember loving the Wing Spear, definitely a great weapon in Shadow Dragon
I know this isn't really a weapon, and so it doesn't really count- but I felt like mentioning it due to my personal experience and favor with it. But I've always found that Thyrsus, equipped by Lysithea, was my favorite thing in FE3H. Lysithea is already known for being an incredible unit, due to her powerful glass cannon stats, and her accessibility to increased range and powerful spells- but if you combine her already powerful kit with Thyrsus, she easily dominates the battlefield- without even the risk of being attacked (most of the time).
Added on top of that, if you've got the right DLC for FE3H, you can have Lysithea promote into the Valkyrie class... Which just empowers her even more.
I recall having her do around 30-50 damage average- 30 being the low point against resistance heavy units- but at a whopping range of 1-6! Added on top of this, because she's a mounted class, that being the Valkyrie, she ALSO gets increased movement- and Canto.
Move in, blow people up, and run away from any possible danger. She is, in my humble opinion, the ultimate spell sniper.
On a side note, I think it'd be an interesting topic if you went over some of the most powerful builds you can make characters in FE games, like Awakening, Fates, and Three Houses. I specifically mention these 3 because each character has more access to classes and skills, in turn allowing more customization and uniqueness in each playthrough. Of course, if you want to talk about earlier entries as well, that's always a good thing.
Sorry about the length, just had a lot I wanted to mention.
Before watching my guesses. Lots of warp is staves are allowed. Otherwise there's going to be a ton of reliable 1-x range weapons like Hand Axes
I thought Minibows were going to be my best weapon in 3H for being accurate, lightweight and having 1-2 range. Then I found out everyone can get close counter (I think that’s its name)
to be fair it does free up a skill slot that you can use for something else. i also like mini bows because iirc they also come with a crit chance when forged.
@@hedreamt9455 But they can't double at one range like they could in other games meaning that in most circumstances Close Counter on an archer that can double with any other bow is usually better than an archer with a mini bow that attacks on your phase. And the 3H mini bow doesn't deal effective damage against fliers unlike other bows in the game.
@@johnathanedwards9054 All valid points from both of y’all
@@seanm.9942 It is easier to decide if you want to use a certain weapon in a game if you know what it can and can't do.
Mini Bows do have 10 crit when forged. However another downside is that they're actually not effective against fliers.
I did play TearRing Saga earlier this year and I feel like the best weapon is the Sylphid tome due to it having potentially good availability, being usable by any unit with a Wind rank alongside having high might, enemies having low res and preventing the enemy from counterattacking. It can also be combined with Vantage for a deadly Enemy Phase as long as the unit has more AS and a shield in their inventory so the enemies don't ignore attacking since it will also prevent the enemy counterattacking even with Vantage as long as it hits. It also helps that you have access to two of them.
I was also thinking about the Sunflame since that is an amazing prf tome with high might, +10 defence when equipped and 1-3 range but Sylphid has more practicality which is why I think it is the best.
Nice, TRS talk. Great mentions on those two tomes, but levin swords and/or pilums would probably make this video's list for how available and effective they are for most of the game. I think pilums are also really cheap too so you have more money left over to spend on levin swords for your pegasi.
@@dryzalizer You bet I used Pilums and Levins a lot as well since there are many great units who make use of Pilums plus they are cheap and available to buy in a good amount of shops and the Levins make the Pegasi terrifying, at least outdoors. There are quite a lot of good weapons in TearRing as well so picking the best isn't easy.
ghast coming in clutch with consistent high quality fe content
Interesting video.
Gotta say Brave weapons really shine in games with skills (FE4/5 Astra hijinks yo)
Many of these are mainstays in modern FEs
The Wing Spear would go on to spawn a meme on her: Omnslayer Caeda (it in FE Warriors could get one more Slayer trait before damage penality, and from there FEH....)
I'd like to mention Awakening's holy weapos (Spear and Bow), Risen are more common late game, and helps in level farming.
This isn't about regalia or something, it is about the most reliable weapon and most used in that FE title each.
So yeah, we have things like Hand Axes here. They are just cheap as F
In fact, the only Regalia weapon in this list is the Raijinto, which is Ryoma's PRF!
cannot believe someone disliked already. another great video ghast!!
I love how much you love Edelgard
Great video! the only thing I slightly disagree with is the fe1 choice, for me personally i would put the silver sword above it simply because more can use it.
Oh yeah, the Silver Sword in fe1 are just too good, although is durability isn't that high.
15:00 FE12: "The more Mt, the better" - that's not an argument against the iron bow, since you can simply forge it to +7 mt to reach the same mt as the forged steel bow. If you forge +10 hit on the steel bow (to reach the same accuracy as Iron), the price is roughly the same. In exchange, iron has 5 more uses and is usable by everyone. Thus, the iron bow is better (but both are fantastic).
In particular hunter reclasses and General Arran in the early game greatly prefer the Iron forge. Coupled with more uses and yeah it's the best one.
I often play maddening mode in 3H, and i'd say that the Killer Bow+ is the best weapon in the game. Especially since Snipers will eventually learn Hunter's Volley, and whoever uses that combo will most definitely annihilate Beasts.
Hunter's volley has a high crit already, tho. You could use silver bow + for the higher might and still get the critical off Hunter's volley.
@@l.n.3372 my Ignatz sniper in maddening is cracked, he will normally crit with either but the killer bow makes it safer a lot of the time
@@conniefan123
Safer but not necessary, in my experience. But Ignatz is safe already cuz his personal skill gives extra hit anyway, so it's more of a given.
A case could be made for the Warp staff in FE11... if it was a weapon.
I've been playing through Shining Force for the first time lately. If I had to pick a weapon from it, I'd say the Power Spear's been consistently good for a long time- a great choice for any of the billion centaurs you get. The Freeze spell is also a contender, because it does solid damage, but mostly because it's attached to Domingo, and Domingo is awesome.
wow I could not agree more with this list. I've played and beaten every officially localised FE game at their highest difficulty (except FE11), and yes these weapons are all so great and reliable, and I've used them to no end. Here's my one nitpick from the video list: Fates should've had a weapon chosen for Conquest specifically, since Raijinto is flat out not available in that route. Just from memory I'm not sure what my pick would be though--maybe Grim Yato thanks to boosting Corrin's defenses, or just Corrin's dragonstone, or maybe Siegfried with its 1-2 range.
If we're not talking Maddening Mode, Levin Sword+ in Three Houses is one of my favorites. It becomes a 30 use, 1-3 range magic weapon once forged, and with 70 hit and 9 weight, it's not bad at all. A decent magic unit can put this to good use, allowing those without Thoron in their kit to 1-3 without resorting to staves, of which there are only two that extend range, or to getting to S rank in their respective magic for Magic Range +1, and with 9 Might, Levin Sword+ comes across similarly to Thoron itself, with only small differences in weight, Hit, and Crit, being 2 weight, 5 Hit and 10 Crit. Of course, the major difference is uses, Thoron having 8 at most, compared to Levin Sword+ having 30. The Crit difference is easily made up for with Sword Crit +10, if you've made a magically powerful Swordmaster, you've nothing to worry about, at least in terms of Ability slots. And if we ignore Magic also having Prowess Abilities, Sword Prowess 3 (C+) makes up the difference in Hit between the Levin Sword+ and Thoron. As such, Levin Sword+ may not be the best, but it certainly fills the Thoron niche some units desperately want to fill, and when forging a Levin Sword to Levin Sword+ from a Steel Sword requires C+ Professor Level, it can be achieved relatively fast, and a chest in Chapter 6's mission also has one, so while it is not available at the outset for anyone, excluding those with at least 600 Renown and the DLC, or New Game+ as soon as you feel like, it does come along soon enough, and makes for an excellent weapon to have on hand at any time.
I think it’s a great choice but tomes completely outclass it like dark spikes guarantee 1 shot can do from 2-3-4-5-6 range away depending on class and relics. The issue I had with it was needing to train sword proficiencies to not miss on a magic class. The magic class was better off just going full magic. On my first few runs I did keep a Levin Sword+ on Byleth though because of the Englihtend one class. Moving forward from that it was just not viable on maddening due to accuracy issues and split training. Combat arts and relics and other things just way out shined it.
Side note the real best weapon is the Viskam 1-9 range 100 hit 20 Mt that things op
@@MNtoCali Yeah, but Levin Sword+ does make for a good substitute, should you take character with good Magic growths and make them a swordie, like Lysithea, she gets a Budding talent in Swords, or maybe putting Felix into magic classes to make him have higher Magic stat towards the end, allowing him to run his natural course in terms of goals, and of course, LS+ is affected by his Crest of Fraldarius like other swords, which means he can spontaneously deal five extra damage with it, although he gets Thoron, which with Black Magic Range +1 outclasses the LS+ until you run out of Thoron, unless you add a staff. But still, LS+ does make for a good option, though I would never call it the best. Because yes, it takes a bit of side training it means you have to take time from one set of things to add it to another. But then again, the month loop glitch exists. Infinite money, teaching time, battles and best of all, infinite stat boosters from gardening (or if you've got an Amiibo, the Holy Tomb in the Amiibo Gazebo) and probably other things I haven't thought to check. Point being, I'm not a Maddening Mode player, but if i's not viable in Maddening, that's ok. New Game+ allows for some neat stuff, but my favorite is returning battalions, Edmund Troops may require B Authority, but at level 5 grants +40 to Hit, +5 to both Physical Attack and Magic Attack, and +2 to Protection and Resilience. But that's even more out of the way than C in Swords and whatever rank in whichever weapon rank, because it adds to that with B in Authority... Oh well.
@@theroyaldrake0514 oh I’ve never heard of infinite glitches. I don’t find normal or hard mode entertaining when any character can solo it. Yes Levin Sword+ extremely good in those scenarios. Have you used the Viskam though?
@@MNtoCali Yes, though I despise how easy it makes the game, any good magic user can pick one up, and can then carefully solo the game. And I really only mention the infinite month loop for it's use in getting weapon ranks, and for the ease of access it can bring for recruiting students who are particularly difficult. Honestly, you really have to invest if you want a character to solo. And I should know, I've max stated a character or two before you absolutely need to spend most of your time leveling them before considering the infinite stat boosters, and even then, Normal Mode still has ways to kill that character, unless you specialize them in dodge tanking.
@@theroyaldrake0514 hm I think just cross training them is enough to make anyone strong. For example you make lys a fortress knight the certification bumps her hp to 35 and def to 17 and well as str 17, that’s more than enough stats to be ranking enough as a warlock or bishop. And the str makes her weighed down less by her heavy tomes, I never used stat boosters much I just certify mages into tanks and tanks into mages for resistances or make someone speed go very high kinda like a dodge tank but I prefer bows, try to get around 45-50 speed late game that’s base 50 dodge then the bow mastery dodge and alert stance + or just a battalion with evade it’s pretty easy I prefer flier though cause I use a stride Bot then fly like Leonie in as a wyvern to just blow everything up. I’ll have to look up the glitches to try more builds I’ve only done 4 play throughs so far they are very time consuming!
Not even a mention of Aymr for 3 houses?
for 3H I'd have to say either Rapier or Killer Knuckles - I recently built Caspar with brawl prowess, brawl avoid, alert stance, fistfaire and brawl crit and I just sit him in defensive terrain and let the enemies come to me, combined with a retribution gambit and no one is safe and shy of gambits no one is hitting you so you can solo entire patches of the map.
While Nosferatu is good in Fire Emblem Awakening, Aversa's Night is down right broken when paired with at least Sol/Aether and Armsthrift (preferably with 50+Luck).
That combination allows you to recover 100% damage dealt as health back to your character and with Armsthrift you can use it infinitely.
Oh, in my experience the most terrifying weapon in Three Houses was a spell called "Summon Dimitri" which can be used by anyone with access to Warp.
I know spells and weapons are different things, I probably would have given the 3h slot to nosferatu though. 1-2 range + healing is incredibly consistent, and although not everyone gets it, it’s acquired really early on and once it’s unlocked, you don’t need to worry about running out of them between missions, as each one starts you off with a fresh set of spell durability.
Basically everyone gets Nosferatu. The biggest issue with Nos is its crappy hit compared to most spells and weapons, and its huge weight. Most units will get easily doubled by enemies when using Nosferatu, and thus you still take tons of damage on the 2nd hit and will likely die after just a few enemies. And while it regenerates between battles, you still don't get a lot of uses per map, so even a unit with enough speed to make it work will burn it fast. Self-healing is good though.
Now I'm curious for the ''Strongest Weapons'' video.
I imagine Freikugel will be on that list since it bosts the highest might out of any weapon in 3H at 23 base might.
I could see potential contenders including OG Falchion (makes Marth nearly invincible to physical attacks), Shadows of Valentia Falchion, Gradivus, Hauteclere, Divinestone, Geneaology and Thracia 776 Forseti, Genealogy Naga tome, Binding Blade (both lore and gameplay), Blazing Sword Luna, Armads, Garm, Naglfar, Ragnel, Alondite, Wishblade, Urvan, Aversa's Night (forged), Awakened Falchion, Fates royal weapons, Omega Yato, and Freikugel.
I’m surprised that he didn’t say aversa’s night for awakening, since it’s literally just nosferatu but stronger if I recall correctly. That and I found the long range tome in the game (the 7 tile dark tome) really helps make lunatic+ a little less monsterous
Lol the 3h weapon (don't want to spoil) is absolutely correct. A lot of people are saying the rapier but I'd definitely disagree. I mean, I'd agree with all of the weapons on this list besides the ones I haven't played (ds remakes).
mace+

I found a way to get a translated version of binding blade on my phone even, but can't figure it out with the others
Echoes Killer Bow has a case for being the best non-Warp weapon in FE history.
I remember when I got the book of Naga while playing awakening and saw how damage it did my jaw dropped.
raijinto for fates is pretty fair, since both rev and birthright enemies are less of a threat. it’s def the best weapon overall, but for conquest specifically i’d have to say either nosferatu or forged bronze weapons. i wrote a lot, so there’s a tldr at the very bottom of this comment.
forged bronze have incredible availability, have incredible hit, are incredibly cheap, provide crit avoid, and CAN’T crit. you’d think that last part is bad, but it’s actually really good. it removes an element of rng from strategies, meaning you can count on surviving a certain number of enemies on enemy phase, without fear of critting and opening up a tile for an extra enemy to attack. it also makes it much more reliable to feed exp and weapon exp to other units via dual strikes, since weapon exp is awarded based off of participation in combat. if you crit and kill the enemy before the partner can attack, they don’t get those bonuses. and if for whatever reason you want to crit, you can just switch to another weapon.
nosferatu was mega nerfed since awakening, but honestly, the way conquest is structured still favors it. healing damage off is still super strong, and in tandem with dual guards, you can take on substantially more enemies than you’d otherwise be able to, and reliably at that. your goal with nosferatu in conquest should be to weaken a ton of enemies to dispatch them quickly next turn, and even so not being able to proc offensive skills or crit doesn’t really mean much. if you still want damage, you can damage stack with skills like good riposte or elbow room and malefic aura. and this isn’t even mentioning nosferatu in tandem with vantage. remember dual guards from earlier? yeah, those help immensely, since vantage can proc a dual guard early, or even save uses entirely.
in short, forged bronze weapons have great availability, remove rng, and by extension aid in planning; an FE player’s greatest asset. and nosferatu is still brain dead
Honestly thought for 3 houses you might go with the rapier since I feel like I could solo the game with byleth plus rapier but my archers did have an iron bow+ on them for the entire game on all my playthroughs lol
For Engage it has to be the Killing Edge+5, criticals can carry you through that game.
Another honorable mention would be FE5 light brand, my only saving grace in Manster arc before getting access to Graf Asbel
I think Ragnell is best weapon in fe10.Because a ridiculously overpowered sword is available mid away through which makes already impressive Ike to an invincible juggernaut.
Exactly. If Ryoma's signature weapon can get it, Ike's deserves the same. Melts the entire game
Considering how many times you chose the Hand Axe, I'm surprised your choice for Thracia wasn't the Vouge, Osian's personal weapon that you can get in the very first chapter, has low weight (for an axe) and high accuracy with a Disgusting 30 crit. Did I mention it has a durability of 60 and you can steal a second one from an enemy berserker in Chapter 16B?

In FE1, the Levin Sword is also a contender for best weapon because of it dealing magical damage (although it's fixed at 15 - Enemy Res) and easy 1-2 Range. The Levin Sword makes weak Sword users great at around 25-30 damage per round of combat since FE1 generic enemies are slow as molasses. You get your first one in Ch 10, and you buy more in Ch 17. Only 2 issues are its 8 WLV to use it and it's 2 Weight, making it a little heavier than most swords. Plus with the high amount of Sword units you get in FE1, finding a user for one isn't hard; Marth, Caeda, Jagen, Cain, Abel, Ogma, Navarre, Hardin, Palla, Catria, Minerva and many others can use the Levin Sword to great effect. And with FE1's slow enemies, the -2 Speed from the weight ensure that it'll be a breeze to double most enemies easily deal a guaranteed 20+ damage in 1 round of combat with almost any character of your choice from 1 or 2 range.
Also, in FE1, effective damage doesn't exist, the Rapier is simply a 100% crit against armors and cavalry, which is 2x damage BEFORE enemy defense is applied. This reason is the biggest reason why I think the Rapier is worse than the Levin Sword. Levin Sword does more damage per hit on average and can be used by characters other than Marth. The Rapier's usefulness comes from Marth's combat prowess, and Marth has to be the one to visit villages, open chests, seize thrones, etc. Marth is too busy to be constantly thrown into combat without spending extra turns or Warps to get around in a timely manner.
Are you sure you aren’t thinking of a different game, because the levin sword doesn’t work like that at all in fe1. The levin sword does a flat 7 damage, as all magic weapons do flat damage in fe1. It is pretty good for making Pegasus into flying mages as it’s better then the tones you have at the time and very lightweight at 2 Wt. It’s great as 1-2 range weapon but it’s lower availability and inability to kill make it worse then say the silver sword.
@@averageman7769 They're probably were thinking of Gaiden's Levin Sword, which was 15 damage - Enemy Res, but +1 weight and -10 hit compared to it's FE1 counterpart
Commenting for that algorithm.
Also good GOD Nosferatu is op in Awakening.
Upside is that is can only be used by Dark Mages and Sorcerers
I am a man of simple tastes. Weapon stats come second for me. I’m more worried about how cool it looks and what animations and effects it has. Like, I really like the blessed bow in Three Houses because it has that neat frosty effect on the arrow :)
