So, I'm really sorry I couldn't get this up before you actually played FFXII. But I love the battle mechanics of this game, and I wanted to share with you some of the things I found while playing the game. Here are some points that are nice to know, especially if you're in to min-max'ing:
- Weapons deal damage based on different stats. Where two are listed, the second gets less important in higher levels.
- - Unarmed is all STR (doubly so with the Brawler license)
- - Swords, poles, spears, crossbows and rods are also all STR
- - Maces are all MAG
- - Katanas and Staves are STR and MAG based
- - Axes, hammers and handbombs are STR and VIT
- - Daggers, ninja swords and bows are STR and SPD
- - Guns and measures are not based on any stats
- Weather, especially rain and sandstorm, affects battle. The most vulnerable weapons are bows, that become severely less accurate during these weathers. Also, thunder is more efficient during rains, and I think fire is less.
