First Version Created
Thanks to being able to tweak the game's RAM and memory I was able to get
access to some of this data without having to play through excessively.
It's doubtful that I will need to update this, but this section is here in
case that ever happens.

In order to properly view this FAQ, you may have to change your Character
Encoding to Japanese Shift JIS.
This is just a list of what weapons are available to which characters,
the weapon stats and other information regarding skills etc.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
| Weapon List |
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
Each character has 4 weapons they can use in game. You can have up to eight
weapons which all can have different skills, elements and upgrade count.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
| -Elements- |
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
There are five elements available for your weapons in game.
Taken from the NTSC-U Instruction Manual (American Version):
When equipment with an elemental effect is equipped, elemental damage can be
added to your attack. When there is at least one segment of the Musou Gauge
filled, elemental damage of the kind shown below will be randomly added to
your attack.
Flame: Wraps the enemy in flames, causing continuous damage.
Explanation: It does more damage to surrounding enemies by burning them.
Lightning: Sends a flash of lightning towards nearby enemies, dealing
damage over a wide area.
Explanation: It has a chain lightning effect, which also stuns any enemies
that the lightning strikes, causing them to be knocked down.
Ice: Temporarily freezes the enemy so they are unable to move.
Explanation: That was pretty self-explanatory.
Blowback(Wind): Breaks through an enemy's guard to deal damage. If the enemy
does not have his guard up, extra damage is dealt.
Explanation: Allows for guard-breaking damage, good against enemies that
like to block often.
Slay/Death: Has a chance of knocking the enemy to the ground with one blow.
In the case of an enemy Officer, the damage dealt is dependent on their
current health.
Explanation: This allows for One Hit Kills of normal enemies, and for
Officers, this allows for proportionate damage to be dealt.

Each Upgrade has a different cost in Gems.

| -Mounts- |
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
There are 14 different mounts available to you in this game. You'll unlock
them somewhat randomly over time. Only two of them have specific requirements
to be unlocked. Some of them are obviously better than others.
This is the order of the mounts as detailed in the game's data proper.
The horses do show up in battles, but it's difficult to discern which one is
which.
