Excalibur is a ridiculously powerful weapon, second only to the Masamune. Even without its elemental and family attacks, its attack is better than any other weapon. With strengths against five Families and every Element, the Excalibur's attack is often 120, not the 100 that's listed. Note that the +20 attack bonus for family and elemental weaknesses do not stack, so it won't get +40 against a Fire Gigas, for example. This is an amazing weapon, and it's very easy to get—just visit Castle Deist after the events in Castle Palamecia. You can even have a mage use Excalibur, with its relatively low 30 magic penalty, though it's unlikely any mages will have much sword skill.
