View source for Weapon shop

Weapon shops are where you can purchase new more powerful weapons in the Dragon Warrior series.  Weapons include swords, spears, knives, staves, axes, and more.  Buying better weapons means you will deal more damage to your foes.  Better weapons cost more gold so  you have to save up to buy even better weapons.  Each weapon shop tends to carry something different and some even carry armor.  Not every character can equip the same weapon so you must be careful of what you buy.  In Dragon Warrior IV you can even be a weapon shop clerk as Taloon.
