There are several weapons in the world of Vana’diel. As you become more efficient with them, you gain new Weapon Skills. Some skills are only useable when you are using certain jobs. The level displayed is the Weapon Level, not the Job Level.

Table Key

Each job is able to use certain weapons. Even if a job can use a weapon, it doesn’t mean they can use some or even all of the Weapon Skills of that weapon type. If a skill is marked as an “EX” skill, then only characters that fit the job qualifications can access it. The SP weapon skills are at higher levels and aren’t verified yet, which is why they aren’t listed. EX: Any character with their main or support job listed in the EX list can use the EX skills for this weapon. SP: Any character with their main job listed in the SP list can use the SP skills for this weapon.
