Werebeasts are the red-headed stepchild of the Final Fantasy monster family tree. There are only two in the game, and Weretigers won't appear until long after the Werebane becomes obsolete. Presumably the Werebane therefore exists just to kill Werewolves, but they aren't that tough anyway. So what gives? Who knows.

Excalibur, Werebuster
The Werebeast family is perhaps the strangest in the game, consisting of Werepanthers and Werewolves, Brains and Changers, and Stunners. The Stunners are the strangest, since they share a sprite with Wererats, who are not Werebeasts. In any case, this is an important family because it's the only one where you will get a weapon effective against them early in the game. The Werebuster can do some serious damage to these Monsters if you have a front-line staff user, and it's a good weapon when you get it anyway.
