There are 14 types of weapons in [[Chrono Cross]] (16 if counting [[Hammer]]s and [[Shot|Cards]] as seperate from [[Axes]] and [[Shot]]s). Some are melee weapons, others are projectile weapons, and certain types of weapons have unique attributes (such as Rods, which attack all enemies instead of a single target | There are 14 types of weapons in [[Chrono Cross]] (16 if counting [[Hammer]]s and [[Shot|Cards]] as seperate from [[Axes]] and [[Shot]]s). Some are melee weapons, others are projectile weapons, and certain types of weapons have unique attributes (such as Rods, which attack all enemies instead of a single target). Each of the weapon types are exclusive to a small portion of Chrono Cross' 45 playable characters. | ||
Each of the weapon types tends to run on a spectrum | Each of the weapon types tends to run on a spectrum from "Bone" weapons (sometimes called by other names, such as "Ivory") generally being the weakest in any given weapon class to "Prism/Spectral/Rainbow" weapons generally being the strongest, with Bronze/Copper, Iron/Steel or Stone/Denadorite weapons generally being somewhere in between. | ||
Weapons in Chrono Cross | Weapons in Chrono Cross, like in most RPGs (including [[Chrono Trigger]]), can be found in chests, dropped or [[Stealing|stolen]] by enemies, fulfilling certain tasks and sidequests or simply obtained by being bought in shops. Unlike in most RPGs however (including [[Chrono Trigger]]), shop vendors do not simply sell weapons for [[Gold]] - instead, players must exchange both Gold and [[List of Chrono Cross items#Materials|Material]]s in exchange for the shop owner to [[Crafting|craft]] the weapon. Each weapon requires a different amount of gold and different types and combinations of materials. | ||
Furthermore, while weapons can be sold for [[Gold]] much like in most RPGs, shop vendors in Chrono Cross also provide the separate option to "disassemble" a weapon, which recovers whatever materials were used to forge it (this is the case even for weapons that can't be bought/crafted at shops, such as [[Pierre]]'s [[Bone Sword]]). It is often preferable to disassemble rather than to sell, as Gold can be acquired from winning any battle, whereas Materials are more scarce. | Furthermore, while weapons can be sold for [[Gold]] much like in most RPGs, shop vendors in Chrono Cross also provide the separate option to "disassemble" a weapon, which recovers whatever materials were used to forge it (this is the case even for weapons that can't be bought/crafted at shops, such as [[Pierre]]'s [[Bone Sword]]).
