Mail Breaker Analysis

Lacks Power

For the most part the Mail Breaker lacks the offensive power that most other weapons have.

The advantages of the Mail Breaker is that its attack type is Pierce and you can get it relatively early in the game. This makes it useful in areas like Stonefang Tunnel where many enemies are susceptible to Pierce attacks, although Magic Attack may end up being stronger there.

Mail Breaker Recommended Upgrade Path

Mail Breaker Recommended Upgrade

The Mail Breaker is outclassed by a lot of weapons with the Pierce attack type, so upgrading it is somewhat of a waste of precious upgrade materials.
