To get the best ones early, here’s what players have to do. As a bonus tip, players should stay sharp and make sure to read descriptions to find secret details on weapons.
8 Angel's Bow
Can Charm And Deal More Damage To Flying Enemies
- Location: Norende
The Angel's Bow can be unlocked once players reach the sixth level of Norende’s weapon shop. There is a village-building segment in Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster, which is one of the best ways to get weapons and armor in the game, that just takes time.
Norende aside, the Angel's Bow is great for the Ranger Job, which can do extra damage to flying enemies, and it has a chance to Charm them. Charmed enemies will attack their own party until it wears off.
7 Bastet Claws
Deal More Damage To Beasts
- Location: Norende
The Bastet Claws can also be unlocked through Norende, and players just have to reach the weapon shop’s fourth level. These are weapons best suited to the Monk Job to give their fists an extra punch when they attack.
The big bonus of the Bastet Claws can cause more damage to beast-type enemies, of which there are many in the game. These weapons will also boost the Crit stat, which causes extra damage when dealing critical hits, which Monks are typically good at in RPGs.
6 Lu Bu's Spear
Does More Damage Against Multiple Enemies
- Location: Norende
Lu Bu is a legendary warrior in Chinese history, and most have probably played him in a Musou game like Dynasty Warriors before. The Lu Bu's Spear in Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster is a nod to this legendary warrior, unlocked through Norende and the weapon shop’s seventh level.
How To Beat Orthros in Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster
Here's the secret to beating the challenging Boss Orthros in Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster.
It has the potential to do more damage if the spear strikes multiple enemies. For example, the Valkyrie Job is a good one for spear combat, and it has a starting ability called Crescent Moon that can hit all enemies with physical damage.
5 Ogre’s Club
Increase Lightning Magic Damage
- Location: Norende
The Ogre’s Club is not a bashing-type club but more like a rod that a mage class would equip in a game like Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster’s Black Mages. It can be unlocked by getting the Norende weapon shop to level three.
It cannot do great physical damage, but it can increase lightning-based magic like Thunder and Thundara. The Rod of Fire can do that for fire spells, and it can be bought in Florem.
4 Ripper
Does More Damage Against Humanoids
- Location: Mount Fragmentum
The Ripper is a great-sounding name for a weapon in an RPG, but it doesn’t look that deadly for a dagger. It can be found easily in a chest on Mount Fragmentum, which is a story-based location. Compared to some other early daggers, its attack power is not that high, but it can do great damage to humanoid enemies.
It’s a great weapon for a Thief to use against the many humanoid bosses in Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster.
3 Sage’s Staff
Does More Damage Against Multiple Enemies
- Location: Norende
Staff-type weapons are good for White Mages, and the Sage’s Staff has a lot of good bonuses. Players need to reach Norende’s fifth-level weapon shop first. The Sage’s Staff can raise the Mind stat, which helps with spells, including curative ones like literally Cure.
Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD: All Party Members and When They Unlock
Players have allies fighting by their side on their quest in the Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster. Here's how to unlock all party members.
The Mind stat also has a chance to block status ailments, which are never fun to receive in an RPG, along with raising magical defenses. The Sage’s Staff will increase power when used against multiple enemies like Lu Bu’s Spear. Finally, if used as an item, the Sage’s Staff will cast Raise to revive an ally.
2 Sleep Sword
Can Put Enemies To Sleep
- Location: Witherwood
The Sleep Sword is a typical-looking sword for an RPG that is best reserved for the Knight Job in Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster, although most Jobs in the game can handle swords well enough.
It can be found in a chest in the Witherwood, which is a side quest area tied to unlocking the aforementioned Valkyrie Job. The Sleep Sword has a decent attack value, and it can put enemies to Sleep if players are lucky. Sleep-inflicted enemies cannot act until they wake up naturally or are attacked by the player.
1 Thumbing Claws
Can Blind Enemies
- Location: Grand Mill Works
The Thumbing Claws are another fist-type weapon best used by Monks. This weapon can be found in the Grand Mill Works, which is how players will unlock the Time Mage and Spell Fencer Jobs as part of a side quest.
The main bonus of the Thumbing Claws can cause an enemy to go Blind, which makes their physical attacks miss most of the time. Whether players use these or the Bastet Claws doesn’t matter, as both are good for Monks, but this side quest should be completed no matter what.
