Template:Images This is a list of the weapons in Final Fantasy V. The primary names are the names given in the Advance and succeeding releases. Other supported translations are listed beneath. To see which titles exist in which version, see the translations page.
Some weapons have traits that are not mentioned in the game's item menu description. See the equipment bugs article for more details.
Weapons have a 0% critical hit rate unless otherwise specified.
Axes
Axes can be used by Freelancers, Berserkers and Gladiators. Like most weapons, axes gain bonus damage from Strength. Unlike most weapons, axes use a different damage formula which only takes 25% of the target's Defense into calculations instead of normal Defense values; therefore, their actual damage is generally higher than their attack implies.
