Weapons and armor are crucial for boosting your characters' offensive and defensive capabilities. Each character has a specific weapon type they can equip (e.g., Swords for P3 Protag, Knives for P5 Protag, Fists for Chie, etc.). Armor is universal, but different pieces offer varying defensive stats and elemental resistances.
- Weapons: Increase a character's Attack stat. Higher-tier weapons often come with additional effects like increased critical hit rate, status ailment infliction, or elemental damage.
- Armor: Increases a character's Defense stat. Some armor pieces also provide resistance or nullification to specific elemental attacks, which can be invaluable for mitigating damage from powerful F.O.E.s and bosses.
- Accessories: Provide various passive bonuses, such as increased HP/SP, stat boosts, resistance to status ailments, or increased experience gain.
