Different attacks do different types of damage, and different enemies may be resistant or particularly vulnerable to certain damage types. The basic types are:
Icon | Damage Type | Weapon Types |
---|---|---|
Blunt | Hand-to-Hand, Club, Staff, Harlequin Frame, Stormwaker Frame | |
Slashing | Axe, Great Axe, Great Sword, Sword, Scythe, Katana, Great Katana, Valoredge Frame | |
Piercing | Dagger, Polearm, Archery, Marksmanship, Shuriken, Sharpshot Frame |
Exceptions
Some weapons have a different damage type than usual for their category.
- Rapier and Epee-type Swords do Piercing damage. Some examples: Joyeuse, Degen, Fleuret.
- The Bourdonasse Polearm does Blunt damage.
- The Crude Sword Great Sword does Blunt damage.
- The Honebami Great Katana does Blunt damage.
- The Chiroptera Dagger Dagger does Slashing damage.
- The Vampiric Claws Hand-to-Hand weapon does Slashing damage.
- When using the Monk Job Ability "Formless Strikes", the damage type of melee strikes and kick attacks is nonphysical, nonelemental. This damage will not be subject to any of the damage-type specific bonuses or penalties below.
Despite having an uncharacteristic damage type when meleeing, these exceptions still use normal damage types during weapon skills. For example, when performing a weapon skill with Vampiric Claws or while using Formless Strikes and any Hand-to-Hand weapon, the damage type is Blunt.

Avatar damage types
Avatars all do Blunt damage with their normal melee attacks.
The physical blood pacts, however, do 4 different types of damage:
|
|
|
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

- This means Ramuh would hit just as hard as Titan on pots (assuming he connected all 3 attacks)
- Diabolos' Somnolence and Nether Blast Blood Pact's have a longer range than other offensive magical blood pacts and deal non-elemental damage.
- Somnolence deals damage with an additional effect of Gravity.
- Nether Blast goes through shadows, Perfect Dodge and Invincible, it also deals extremely consistant 100%(?) accurate damage.
- Nether Blast may be more accurately classified as magical damage.
Physical Blue Magic damage types
Physical Blue Magic takes on Damage Types as well. Below is the list:
