Best Weapon and Equipment for Clavats

Remastered Edition

Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Blaze Nova
or
Luna Celion
57 Daybreak Weapon
or

Talisman of Wisdom: Casting Time -15
・Scroll: Secrets of Wisdom
Devil's Earring: Status change effects +60
・Scroll: Daemon Kit
Twisted Scope: Spell range +20
・Scroll: Designer Glasses

This loadout shows the best possible equipment for Clavats considering all the additions in the Post-Game Dungeons. The Blaze Nova is even stronger than those added as paid DLC, and can be called the Clavats' true ultimate weapon. The Lune Celion also exists, but its Focus Attack is weaker than that of Blaze Nova, so it doesn't quite earn the top slot.

As for Accessories, there are no changes from the GameCube version. The Talisman of Wisdom is the best choice overall, as it allows Clavats to reach the same Casting Time as Yukes. This grants Clavats more flexibility as both Physical and Magic attackers.

Go ahead and craft these if you want to max out your character before taking on the much harder Post-Game Dungeons.

The DLC weapons for Clavats come with a whopping 45 strength, stronger than any obtainable weapon from the original game, although some weapons Post-Game Dungeons surpass it. For those who aren't worried about game balance and would like to breeze through the game to reach the difficult content, these weapons may be up your alley.

Best Weapon and Equipment for Lilties

Remastered Edition

Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Longinus 40 Celestial Weapon
Armor Diamond Plate 27 Diamond Armor
Gloves Glorious Gloves 18 Glorious Gloves
Accessories
Dragon's Heart: Focus Attack +3
・Scroll: Soul of the Dragon

Longinus used together with the Dragon Heart is still the strongest pair in the game due to the power of Bladestorm, its Focus Attack. Weapons with equivalent power exist in Post-Game Dungeons, but their Focus Attacks still cannot beat the best weapon from the original game.

A new pair of Gloves, Glorious Gloves, boost the range of Lilties' Focus Attacks. Although it takes a Defense hit, this will allow Lilties to attack enemies which cannot yet target them, providing much more safety overall.

Original Game

Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Longinus 40 Celestial Weapon
Armor Diamond Plate 27 Diamond Armor
Gloves Diamond Armlets 22 Diamond Gloves
Accessories

Dragon's Heart: Focus Attack +3
・Scroll: Soul of the Dragon

This is the best gear for Lilties based on the GameCube version of the game. Go ahead and craft the Diamond Armlets without waiting for the Glorious Gloves if you want to max out your character before taking on the much harder Post-Game Dungeons.

DLC Exclusive

Weapon Str Scroll, etc
Weapon Mogungnir
or
Catastrophy
40 DLC

The DLC weapons focus attacks aren't quite as strong as the Longinus' so they won't exactly dethrone it, but with 40 strength and the ability to obtain it early on in the game they can be just as useful.

Best Weapon and Eqiupment for Yukes

Remastered Edition

Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Frost Magia
or
Queen Rouge
or
Evil Keraunos
56 Freeze Weapon
or
Flame Weapon
or
Lightning Weapon
Armor Diamond Plate 27 Diamond Armor
Shield Glorious Helm 18 Glorious Helm
Accessory
Wiseman Soul: Magic Power +15
・Scroll: Book of Wisdom
Charm of Wisdom: Casting Time -10
・Scroll: Tome of Wisdom

The Yukes' new ultimate weapons have Focus Effects which allow them to cast Firaga, Blizzaga or Thundaga instantly without using spell fusion. Of these, Frost Magia, which provides Blizzaga, and Evil Keraunos, which provides Thundaga, are the most useful with their potential to stop enemies' movements.

The new Accessory Wiseman Soul is also powerful, as it boosts Yukes' Magic Power by a whopping 15 percent. In the GameCube version, Clavats were able to reach an equivalent Magic Power to Yukes, but with the addition of this item, Yukes are able to use Magic far more effectively than any other class. That said, Wiseman Soul will not be obtainable until rather late, so the Charm of Wisdom which allows Casting Time reduction is best until that point.

Original Game

Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Ultima Hammer 35 Greatest Weapon
Armor Saintly Mail 30 Holy Armor
Helm Diamond Helm 25 Diamond Sallet
Accessories
Daemon's Earring: Status change effects +30
・Scroll: Fiend Kit
Twisted Spectacles: Spell range +20
・Scroll: Eyewear Techniques
Elemental's Soul: Spell damage +5
・Scroll: Forbidden Tome

This is the best gear for Yukes based on the GameCube version of the game. Go ahead and craft these if you want to max out your character before taking on the much harder Post-Game Dungeons.

As you can only use one Greatest Scroll per save game it's best to use it on a Yuke. Accessories that boost Yukes' magic power are also recommended.

DLC Exclusive

Weapon Str Scroll, etc
Weapon Kupo Kupo Hammer
or
Executor
45 DLC

The Yuke DLC weapons are exceptionally powerful, so if you have the money and are hoping to plow through the early game and head to the Post-Game quickly, they may be for you.

Best Weapon and Equipment for Selkies

Remastered Edition

https://game8.co/games/Final-Fantasy-Crystal-Chronicles-Remastered/archives/294589
Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Evergreen 54 Paradise Weapon
Armor Diamond Plate 27 Diamond Armor
Belt Winged Belt
or
Glorious Belt
25 or 18 Wind Belt
or
Glorious Belt
Accessory
Thief's Emblem: Focus Attack charge time -15
・Scroll: Brigandology

The addition of the Evergreen changes the game for Selkies, allowing them to dish out far more attacking power than before. The Evergreen's Focus Attack allows them to cast Hastega without using Spell Fusion, making them more useful in multiplayer than solo play. Another ultimate weapon, Fairy Tale, exists as well, allowing the use of Clearaga instead of Hastega, turning Selkies into an essential support class.

Selkies can switch between the Winged Belt and the Glorious Belt depending on the Dungeon, as the Glorious Belt's Magic Range boost allows them to use Magic more easily as well. With the Hastega boost, they'll be able to use Magic more quickly than before, so against Flying and Undead-type Monsters, the Glorious Belt is essential in giving additional range to use these spells. In Dungeons where these Monsters are scarce, the additional Defense provided by the Winged Belt is preferred.

Original Game

Equipment Str/Def Scroll
Weapon Dreamcatcher 35 Lunar Weapon
Armor Diamond Plate 27 Diamond Armor
Belt Winged Belt 25 Wind Belt
Accessories
Thief's Emblem: Focus Attack charge time -15
・Scroll: Brigandology

This is the best gear for Selkies based on the GameCube version of the game.

DLC Exclusive

Weapon Str Scroll, etc
Weapon Kupo Kupo Racket
or
Punishment
45 DLC

Both Selkie DLC weapons are incredibly strong. However, as they don't posess the much better focus attack, Meteor Blast, we recommend the Dreamcatcher instead for the main Dungeons. This all comes down to player preference, of course, and like the other DLC weapons can help you power through the main game.

Best Equipment for Each Resistance

Vanitas Series: Fire Resistance +2

Name Defense Effect
Vanitas Belt 20 Resist Fire +2
Vanitas Gloves 20 Resist Fire +2
Vanitas Helm 20 Resist Fire +2
Vanitas Mail 25 Resist Fire +2
Vanitas Shield 20 Resist Fire +2

The Vanitas Equipment provides the best resistance to Fire of any item, and is found in the Toadstool Forest Post-Game Dungeon.

As the Toadstool Forest is one of the earlier Post-Game Dungeons, it's a good idea to grind the Dungeon for the Materials required to make the Vanitas series, as Fire resistance will be key for taking on later Dungeons like Afternoon Fort.

Chronicle Series: Thunder Resistance +2

Name Defense Effect
Chronicle Belt 20 Resist Lightning +2
Chronicle Gloves 20 Resist Lightning +2
Chronicle Helm 20 Resist Lightning +2
Chronicle Mail 25 Resist Lightning +2
Storm Chronicle 20 Resist Lightning +2

The Chronicle Equipment provides the best resistance to Thunder of any item, and is found in the Falling Leaves Path Post-Game Dungeon.

Falling Leaves Path is by far the easiest of all Post-Game Dungeons. When you're just starting out, go ahead and farm the Dungeon for the Chronicle series first, as Thunder resistance is essential for later dungeons like Misty Mount Kilanda.

Acies Series: Ice Resistance +2

Name Defense Effect
Acies Armor 25 Resist Ice +2
Acies Buckle 20 Resist Ice +2
Acies Gloves 20 Resist Ice +2
Acies Helm 20 Resist Ice +2
Acies Shield 23 Resist Ice +2

The Acies Equipment provides the best resistance to Ice of any item, and is found in the Oblivion Village Post-Game Dungeon.

Oblivion Village is a bit more difficult than the previous two Dungeons so having some Ice-resistant Equipment in advance, like the Frost Mail, will help clear it. The Ice Resistance obtained here will be essential for later dungeons like Frozen Sluice.

Oblivion Village Dungeon Walkthrough

Dragon Series: Poison Resistance +2

Name Defense Effect
Dragon Buckle 23 Resist Poison +2
Dragon Gloves 23 Resist Poison +2
Dragon Helm 23 Resist Poison +2
Dragon Mail 25 Resist Poison +2
Dragon Shield 23 Resist Poison +2
Dragon's Heart - Focus Attack +3

The Dragon Equipment provides the best resistance to Poison of any item, and is found in the Pale Cave Post-Game Dungeon.

Pale Cave is a Thunder-heavy Dungeon, so be sure to grind for the Chronicle Series first before taking it on. The Poison Resistance will be key for later dungeons like Miasma Pit.

Pale Cave Dungeon Walkthrough

Moogle Series: Curse Resistance +2

Name Defense Effect
Moogle Buckle 23 Resist Curse +2
Moogle Gloves 23 Resist Curse +2
Moogle Shield 23 Resist Curse +2
Moogle Visor 23 Resist Curse +2
Pom-Pom Cloak 25 Resist Curse +2

The Moogle Equipment provides the best resistance to Curse of any item, and is found in the Dinner Party Post-Game Dungeon.

Curse will be essential for making it through the Goblin Festival, one of the hardest Post-Game Dungeons, so be sure to grind for the Moogle Series beforehand.

The Dinner Party Dungeon Walkthrough

Heresy Series: Stone Resistance +2

The Heresy Equipment provides the best resistance to Petrification of any item, and is found in the Afternoon Fort Post-Game Dungeon.

Resistance to Petrify will be essential for later dungeons like Miasma Pit, so get the Heresy Series in advance. You'll want to get the Vanitas Equipment first to make it through Afternoon Fort.

I'm a bit mad about the Yuke equipment. The defense on the helmet is lower than pre-hard mode, and Yukes don't need extra magic range. Did they typo 18 instead of 28 def? The focus attacks on the weapons aren't any good because YUKES SUCK AT FOCUS ATTACKS! The accessory is the only thing worthwhile.
