Notes
- There are three Gargoyles that use a Crossbow in 3-2. Their locations are:
- The midpoint of the walkway that leads to the first chain tower (near where the Flamberge is on the map)
- To the right of the start of the walkway that leads to the second chain tower (point 11 on the map)
- The midpoint of the walkway joining the lower part of the fallen heart tower (near point 18 on the map)
- A Dragon Halberd and a good Bow are ideal for farming the Gargoyles. Make sure that when you kill a Gargoyle , its corpse will be accessible when it falls.

Key

- Names displayed are according to the Atlus (NA) version of the game.
- Name changes from the Asian version, if any, will appear in parentheses.
- Damage
- The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are X / Y / Z:
- X is Physical Damage
- Y is Magical Damage
- Z is Fire Damage
- Bleed, Poison and Plague are bonus damage over a period of 60 seconds. So, if a weapon has "Bleed 120", the victim will suffer 120 damage over 60 seconds, or 2 damage per second.
- Each weapon has one or more physical damage types:
- Normal
- Blunt
- Slashing
- Piercing
- Certain enemies are weak or strong against different types of damage types.
- Durability
- The durability of the weapon.
- The effectiveness of the weapon will severely deteriorate when the durability falls below 30%.
- Weight
- The Weight of the weapon.
- Note that carrying over 50% of your Equip Weight will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.
- Stats Needed
- The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively.
- The Requirement stats for an weapon are W / X / Y / Z:
- Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon.
- Also keep in mind that your character gains a 50% bo [[nus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required. For example, a character with 18 Strength can wield a Great Axe (Requires 26 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands.
- (18 x 1.5 = 27)

- X is Physical Damage
- Y is Magical Damage

- The Guard Break Reduction determines the amount of stamina expended to block an incoming attack.
- A higher Guard Break Reduction also allows you to block stronger attacks without breaking guard and reduces the amount of stamina depleted from blocking attacks.
