—Description, Final Fantasy.

Greatswords (グレートソード, Gurētosōdo?), or Great Sword, are a recurring type of weapon and a name of a weapon in the Final Fantasy series. The weapon class often features in games with some sort of speed statistic, where the Greatswords are stronger than the normal sword types, but make the user slower. However, Greatswords are usually equipped as two-handed weapons. In essence, Greatswords are stronger and heavier versions of the ordinary swords.

Recurring Greatswords include the Greatsword, the Claymore, the Ragnarok, the Tournesol, and the Hardedge.

SpiraAdded by Spira

The Greatsword is a weapon located in the Great Swords weapon class. Great Swords do average damage and have an average delay for a two-handed weapon, like the Swords do for an average one-handed weapon. Great Swords can be equipped by Warriors, Paladins, and Dark Knights, and the Greatsword itself can be equipped by all three.

The Greatsword is fairly weak in comparison to other Great Swords. The Greatsword +1 is not very different at the same level, while doing slightly more damage with a smaller delay.

Great Sword is also a type of combat skill that determines the Accuracy and Attack for Great Swords.

The Greatswords are a weapon class in Final Fantasy XII. They are strong swords that are two-handed and do not show up until later in the game's storyline. The weakest Greatsword, the Sword of Kings, is only obtained in the Stilshrine of Miriam with 30 Attack points. Final Fantasy XII's Greatswords differ from other in the series, by having an unusually high rate of attack; much faster than regular, one-handed swords.

In the International Zodiac Job System, the Knight has access to all greatswords while the Red Mage and White Mage have access to a few. Also, the Sword of Kings, Treaty Blade, and the Wyrmhero Blade can be equipped by any character, regardless of their job.
