'''Weapons''' are one of three types of equipment in {{CC}}, the other two being [[List of Chrono Cross Armor|Armor]] and [[List of Chrono Cross accessories|Accessories]]. Each of the 45 playable characters has a single weapon slot that they can equip a weapon to.
'''Weapons''' are one of three types of equipment in {{CC}}, the other two being [[List of Chrono Cross Armor|Armor]] and [[List of Chrono Cross accessories|Accessories]]. Each of the 45 playable characters has a single weapon slot that they can each equip one weapon to.


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, or Boomerangs, which do that as well as being potent against Floating type enemies). Each of the weapon types are exclusive to a small fraction of Chrono Cross's playable cast.  
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, starting with "Bone" weapons (sometimes called by other names, such as "Ivory") generally being the weakest in any given weapon class that they are present in, all the way up to "Prism/Spectral/Rainbow" weapons, which are usually the strongest. Bronze/Copper, Iron/Steel, Silver/Mythril or Stone/Denadorite weapons are usually somewhere in between, with the former most of that group (Bronze/Copper) being the weakest and the latter most (Stone/Denadorite) being the strongest. Weapons made from Denadorite are always strong against [[Matter]] type enemies. There also exist certain special weapons that exist outside of this spectrum, such as the [[Mastermune]], the [[Einlanzer]], the [[Hero's Blade]] or the [[Floral Rod]], which are often exclusive to a single character. These are often very powerful weapons, sometimes even surpassing the "Rainbow" weapons for the characters that are able to equip them.

Weapons in Chrono Cross can, like in most RPGs (including [[Chrono Trigger]]) be found in chests; by being dropped or [[Stealing|stolen]] by enemies; by fulfilling certain tasks, quests and preconditions; or by simply purchasing one in a shop. 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.
