WEAPON STATS
As you might know, Soul Calibur is a weapon based fighter that features over 200 weapons! What makes the game a little frustrating though is that each weapons overall stats arent listed! This can be annoying when there are only little descriptions. Here's all the weapons for the characters. They're graded from one star (*) to five stars (*****) five stars the best and one the worst. A half a star will be represented by a 1/2. A 2.5 star rating represents the average weapon (average weapon does about 13 on horizontal strike and 17 on a vertical strike).

WEAPON STATS
As you might know, Soul Calibur is a weapon based fighter that features over 200 weapons! What makes the game a little frustrating though is that each weapons overall stats arent listed! This can be annoying when there are only little descriptions. Here's all the weapons for the characters. They're graded from one star (*) to five stars (*****) five stars the best and one the worst. A half a star will be represented by a 1/2. A 2.5 star rating represents the average weapon (average weapon does about 13 on horizontal strike and 17 on a vertical strike).
