Hey there. Thank you, first of all, for choosing this guide. I figured that
something like this would come in handy when documentation on the various
Weapons/Armour is somewhat absent from the web. Have fun!

- Missed Z Attack Boosters and made a mistake on Omega Break's maximum Attack
value--many thanks to allgdnamesrgone for pointing this out.
As this is an early version, this guide probably contains some minor typos and
mistakes. If there's something you wish to correct, no matter how small, please

Equipment Stats
---------------
Attack* - Directly added on to your Strength or Ether stat whenever you
damage the enemy with a physical or Ether attack respectively.
Physical Def - Reduces physical damage taken.
Ether Def - Reduces ether damage taken.
Critical Rate* - Increases chance to score a critical hit. Critical hits do an
extra 25% damage compared to normal attacks. The damage number
popup will be larger and bolder to indicate this.
Block Rate* - Increases chance to block enemy attacks. Successful blocks
halve the damage taken from Auto-Attacks and Physical Arts.
Ether Arts cannot be blocked. If the foe blocks, your
character's queued actions (attacks that strike more than
once) are cancelled and they are immobile for about half a
second.
Weight^ - More Weight lowers your character's evasion and accuracy (but
not by much).
* = Weapon-only stat, ^ = Armour-only stat.
Max Damage Glitch
-----------------
If you check out your stats screen, one of your major stats that you'll often
be paying attention to is your character's Auto-Attack Damage, which is equal
to your Strength plus Weapon Attack stat. You'll get a range of values such as
250-375.
However, Xenoblade Chronicles has a glitch whereby the upper damage limit is
capped at the lower damage limit plus 99. For example, if the game tells you
that you're doing 250-375 damage, you'll actually be doing 250-349.
Note that this does NOT work in reverse--if it says you're doing 300-380
damage, that's the truth. You are NOT doing 300-399 damage.
Status effects and Arts will multiply this capped limit. Say you are using an
Art that does 3x the damage of a regular attack, and your auto-attack damage is
250-375. First you knock this range down to 250-349, then multiply by 3 for
your damage range of 750-1047. Just out of interest, if the game wasn't
glitched, that Art would deal 750-1125 damage.

[01] Weapon Database
_______________________________________________________________________________
Weapons are listed in order of the lowest value of their Attack range, apart
from Shulk's Monados which are listed in (roughly) the order you get them.
Key
---
M - Is the weapon effective against Mechon? o = Yes, x = No. If a weapon is not
effective against Mechon, the only way to damage the Mechon normally is if it
is toppled or you are under the effects of Shulk's Monado Enchant. Otherwise,
you will deal 1HP damage to them with physical attacks and half the regular
damage with Ether attacks.
Attack - Weapon Attack range. Be sure to remember to account for the max damage
glitch as referred to above.
Def - Physical defence stat.
EDf - Ether defence stat.
Crit - Critical Rate stat.
Blok - Block Rate stat.
Sl - Maximum number of gem slots the weapon can have. A 'U' next to the number
stands for 'unique', which means that the weapon comes pre-loaded with gems
that cannot be removed. The gems its comes with are listed below the weapon's
data.
Sell - Sell price of the weapon.
Shulk's Monados
---------------
Any weapon with an asterisk (*) by its name is a Monado and has its Attack stat
multiplied by Shulk's LV, up to a maximum damage range of 999-999. It also does
normal damage to Mechon (as opposed to 1 damage like standard weapons) and
grants Shulk access to his Monado Arts.

[03] Obtaining the Best Weapons
_______________________________________________________________________________
Top Tip for Weapon Hunting!
---------------------------
The best way to find your desired weapons is to first find the unique monster
that drops it (I'll tell you what they are below) and lure it away from its
starting location. Now kill it. Unique monsters always drop a gold chest when
felled. Before opening the chest, save your game, then open it. If you don't
get the weapon, reload and repeat until you nab it.
The reason for luring the monster away is that while you're reloading the
monster will eventually respawn. Unique monsters always attack if you're in
range, so it's best to be some distance away from their spawn location if you
want to do your save scumming uninterrupted.
Note that the monsters and locations I list aren't the only way to get these
weapons, merely the easiest.

Shulk's Monados are all gained by doing quests in the end-game phases, so I'd
recommend following Split's guide if you're having issues with that. Clearly,
the best weapon is the Monado III, but that only comes with a New Game+. So, if
you're doing a fresh game and want to clear the end-game content, your best
option, I believe, is the Monado Rudra. Nice damage output, decent defences and
most important of all--three gem slots.

They decided to spice things up with Riki because here we have a difficult
choice between two weapons. However, I'm tempted to recommend the Meteor
Nibbler. Yes, it has worse stats overall, but Riki doesn't need as much defence
considering his huge HP pool. He is mainly used for his damage over time
attacks, so the extra Weapon Attack will be handy. However, don't be shy to use
the Comet Biter if you feel you need some extra defence.

[04] Best Armour Combinations
_______________________________________________________________________________
___________________________
A Not-So-Brief Introduction
___________________________
What is the 'Best' armour?
--------------------------
Unlike weapons, there's a lot of choice for armour, so determining the game's
'best' armour is a slightly more daunting task. Still, we can start by
eliminating all the severely outclassed and early-game junk armour at least.
Now personally I find that the best armour pieces are those that come with a
Gem slot. Yes, I know that some armour has better stats and no Gem slots, but a
simple way of comparing is that with your slotted armour you can slap in a
Muscle Up VI Gem for a +100 Phys Def boost, if you wanted. I probably would
recommend better Gems than that, but for purposes of black-and-white
comparison, you can see that slotted armour beats no-slot armour any day of the
week.
There is one exception to this rule, and that is Seven's Sedna Drones Foot
Armour. Although they pack fantastic defensive stats, their main draw is that
they grant Seven access to her most powerful Talent Art, Sword Drones X (check
my Arts guide for details). If you're using Seven for physical attacking (which
you almost definitely should be) then this, I would recommend, is the way to
go.
The other option for Gems and armour is the unique armour (marked with a pink
'U' in-game) which comes pre-packed with a Gem. Now Gems vary in strength, even
within their rank. Consider, for example, a Strength Up VI Gem, which offers a
stat bonus of anywhere between +75 and +100 Strength. Without fail, the unique
armour pieces in this game have the minimum or close-to-minimum stat bonus
possible for its rank. That means that your unique armour with a Strength Up VI
Gem pre-equipped will never offer you the maximum possible bonus--you should
get a slotted armour and put in a Gem that your crafted yourself.
So, by and large, unique armour is a waste of time too. The only exception that
comes to my mind is the Glory Gauntlets, which offer a Haste bonus of 45%. The
great thing about the Glory Gauntlets is that Haste Gems are typically unable
to be equipped on armour, being restricted to weapons only. Thus, you can equip
your favourite three weapon Gems like normal AND have a Haste gem on top. 45%
is not too far off the maximum of 50% either, and the Glory Gauntlets have
fantastic Phys Def and Ether Def boosts as well. If you didn't know, Haste Gems
increase the rate at which your character performs Auto-Attacks, so it's a very
useful Gem for physical attackers.
Well, anyway, I'll make a start and round up the game's best armour for you to
analyse. Remember that I'll only be recommending slotted armour that isn't
unique, except in the two special cases I mentioned above.
___________________________________________
Shulk, Reyn, Sharla, Dunban, Melia and Riki
___________________________________________
Well, here is the best armour of each weight (light, medium, heavy) and body
type. I've taken the highest ranking slotted armour from each group, plus the
Glory Gauntlets. Looking at this list, we should be able to eliminate some
options completely:

____________________________________
Just looking at this, you can tell that all the Light Armour is outclassed by
the Lancelot Gear in both stats, so we can eliminate the idea of even wearing
Light Armour. Also, any Medium armour without Lancelot in the name is only
there because it has higher Phys Def (or is the Glory Gauntlets)--but if you
want high Phys Def, you should go for heavy armour, so we can get rid of those
armours too, leaving us with...

_________________________________________
Notice the new 'Tot' column which gives the total defence of the item--that is,
Phys Def + Ether Def. I've also removed the M100 gear from the table--it's only
a few points ahead of the Rex armour in Phys Def in all cases, but takes a
bigger drop in Ether Def so is worse overall. It might be worth bearing in mind
that the majority of attacks you'll be facing are enemies' Auto-Attacks, all of
which target your physical side.
So really, your choice comes down to the Lancelot gear or the high Phys Def
gear. Rex is good for Phys Def except in the cases where Ledios gear has slots
(some components of the Ledios gear aren't slotted) so pick the one with the
best stats for your needs. For Ether Defense or general everyday armour that
won't let you down, stick with Lancelot. And, of course, feel free to slap the
Glory Gauntlets on your physical attackers.
Now, the highest stat total set from the armours in the above table comes from
equipping the Lancelot Gear, Lancelot Armour, Glory Gauntlets, Ledios Cuisses
and Lancelot Boots / Rex Greaves. Personally though, I'd swap the Lancelot Gear
for the Rex Helm--Phys Def is a better stat than Ether Def, so a one point
total loss is certainly worth a higher Phys Def in my opinion. Thus, I present
to you what I believe to be the game's 'best' armour set.
'Best' Armour Set
-----------------
Head: Rex Helm
Torso: Lancelot Armour
Arm: Glory Gauntlets / Ledios Arms
Leg: Ledios Cuisses
Foot: Rex Greaves
With Glory Gauntlets: +838 Phys Def, +614 Ether Def, 15 Weight, 45% Haste.
With Ledios Arms: +818 Phys Def, +524 Ether Def, 18 Weight.
If the lowish Ether Def disturbs you or you're up against an Ether-abusing foe,
swap out the Rex Helm and Rex Greaves for their Lancelot equivalents--you'll
basically swap some Phys Def for Ether Def. But just remember what I said about
enemies more often using physical Arts and Auto-Attacks.
Just be sure to equip Glory Gauntlets on anyone who will be Auto-Attacking a
lot (probably Shulk and Dunban, maybe Reyn, not so much Riki and almost
certainly not Sharla and Melia).
Skill Linking
-------------
Now that SHOULD be it... but there's one more factor to take into account.
Namely, character's skills. Sharla has the Middleweight Expert skill, boosting
medium armour Phys Def and Ether Def by 10% (rounded down) for each piece of
equipment. Likewise, Melia has the Heavyweight Expert skill, boosting Ether Def
by a flat +30 for each piece of Heavy Armour worn.
You should get your characters to skill link these if you can spare the hefty
coin cost. Middleweight Expert costs 47 Affinity Coins and Heavyweight Expert
costs 45 Affinity Coins, so perhaps it's more of a late-game thing. Linking
both skills will be nigh-on impossible if you want to use other skills as well,
so bear that in mind.
Anyway, the modified stats for each armour in the above table can be found
below. Of course, all the medium armour is assuming you've skill linked
Middleweight Expert (+10%), and the heavy armour stats are modified assuming
you've linked Heavyweight Expert (+30).

_________________________________________
So here we are then. I suppose if you're skill linking there are three separate
cases to consider for 'best' armour setup: Skill linking Middleweight Expert,
skill linking Heavyweight Expert and skill linking both (if you're lucky enough
to have that many Affinity Coins).
Middleweight Expert
-------------------
Head: Lancelot Gear
Torso: Lancelot Armour
Arm: Glory Gauntlets / Lancelot Gauntlets / Ledios Arms
Leg: Lancelot Leggings / Ledios Cuisses
Foot: Lancelot Boots
In the case of Arm and Leg armour, the Ledios sets have a drop of a few points
(5 and 6 respectively) overall, but offer a much higher Phys Def. As I've
mentioned before, this is a much better stat. You might even consider Rex
Greaves on the feet for the same reason, although the overall power drop is 28
points so I probably wouldn't. This is a more balanced set with higher Ether
Def.
With Glory Gauntlets / Lancelot Leggings: +777 Phys Def, +795 Ether Def, 11
Weight, 45% Haste.
With Lancelot Gauntlets / Lancelot Leggings: +684 Phys Def, +762 Ether Def, 12
Weight.
With Ledios Arms / Lancelot Leggings: +741 Phys Def, +700 Ether Def, 14 Weight.
With Glory Gauntlets / Ledios Cuisses: +824 Phys Def, +742 Ether Def, 13
Weight, 45% Haste.
With Lancelot Gauntlets / Ledios Cuisses: +731 Phys Def, +709 Ether Def, 14
Weight.
With Ledios Arms / Lancelot Leggings: +788 Phys Def, +647 Ether Def, 15 Weight.
Heavyweight Expert
------------------
Head: Rex Helm
Torso: Rex Chest
Arm: Glory Gauntlets / Ledios Arms
Leg: Ledios Cuisses
Foot: Rex Greaves
With a naturally high Phys Def and Heavyweight Expert boosting your Ether Def
by 30 for each piece of armour (for +150 overall!) this is an insanely powerful
set. Glory Gauntlets don't get a boost, unfortunately, but still have higher
stats than any heavy armour even with the +30 Ether Def boost. Plus, the Haste
effect is awesome on any Auto-Attackers in your group. The only other toss-up
here is for the Torso piece--Ledios has +40 Phys Def but -69 Ether Def, if you
think it's worth it (probably not). I'd say this set is better than the
Middleweight Expert set, and it even costs 2 less Affinity Coins to link!
Bonus!
With Glory Gauntlets: +859 Phys Def, +719 Ether Def, 16 Weight, 45% Haste.
With Ledios Arms: +823 Phys Def, +653 Ether Def, 19 Weight.
Both
----
Head: Rex Helm
Torso: Lancelot Armour
Arm: Glory Gauntlets / Ledios Arms
Leg: Ledios Cuisses
Foot: Rex Greaves
If you've got 92 Affinity Coins to spare, this armour set just blows everything
away. Still, it only offers +12 Phys Def, +19 Ether Def and -1 Weight over the
Heavyweight set, so I would spend my Affinity Coins elsewhere.
With Glory Gauntlets: +871 Phys Def, +738 Ether Def, 15 Weight, 45% Haste.
With Ledios Arms: +835 Phys Def, +672 Ether Def, 18 Weight.

___________________________________
Luckily, Seven only has a choice between two armours in most cases--do you want
higher Phys Def or higher Ether Def? In every case, the Attack V Arms wins in
terms of raw power alone. Much like the Glory Gauntlets, the Speed V Frame (for
the Torso, not the Arms) gives a Haste boost of 45% which is fantastic--and
Seven Auto-Attacks like a beast so you'll almost definitely want this.
Typically, I'd whack an Attack V set everywhere except for the Speed V Frame.
You get a fantastic Phys Def boost (the more important of the two defensive
stats) and 45% Haste to boot.
Now the most difficult choice is what Drones you want. Use my Arts Guide here
on GameFAQs to make the best choice, but in terms of raw power the Sedna Drones
are the best. The downside? No Gem slot :(. I think that's worth it considering
the high stats, but you might think differently and want a Gem slot in exchange
for a weaker Talent Art. Anyway, here is what I believe to be the best set for
Seven:
Head: Attack V Goggles
Torso: Speed V Frame
Arm: Attack V Arms
Leg: Attack V Boosters
Foot: Sedna Drones
Stats: +954 Phys Def, +631 Ether Def, 9 Weight, 45% Haste.
