Exotic

Key P
Type Exotic
Range Melee
The Exotic Arms are the best melee Weapons in the game, and everyone can use them. Kind of puts a damper on saving up for magic Weapons, especially when you realize how easy they are to find. All you need is a Frigate and a few hints from Dawn and you're good to go.

The most important aspect of the Exotic Arms is that they are the only Weapons that work in Castle Fire. With anything else (including any ranged Weapon), you will always miss. Don't try to fight Exodus without them!

Exotic Armour

Key H
Type Exotic
The Exotic Armour is the most game-breaking item in the game. Sure, it serves a specific purpose—wearing any other Armour in Castle Fire will result in you being hit by every enemy attack—but the fact is that it's free, easy to get, better than any other Armour, and anyone can use it. Even if you play the game as legit as possible, getting this Armour is really not hard.

The upside is that the "max Armour" column of the Type table can be basically ignored. Once you get these, everyone is on the same level, allowing you to focus on offense.

Exotic Arms

The Exotic Arms are found by Digging on the eastern square of a small island east of Fawn. You can obtain them as soon as you have a Frigate. They can't be sold, but every character can use them and you can Dig up as many as you want, so make sure you take four. No other Weapons will work in Castle Fire.
