About this converter
Dragon Quest II weapons climb from 4 to 105 attack. Club opens at 4, Falcon Sword at 7 with two hits, Copper Sword at 10, Iron Spear at 15, Iron Axe at 25, Steel and Broad Sword at 30, Erdrick Sword at 40, Light Sword at 70, Sword of Malice at 93, Lightning Sword at 95 and Hades Sword at 105. That makes one Hades Sword equal over ten Copper Swords or twenty six Clubs. Three heroes share the list, with Erdrick Sword for Midenhall prince, Light and Lightning swords casting spells as items. Every value here is the NES base from Almars and Wiki tables.
How to use it
Pick two weapons and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds the total in attack. Try 1 Hades Sword against Clubs.
Falcon Sword at 7 hits twice, so live damage doubles base but rows pin 7. Hades Sword at 105 curses the holder, noted as penalty outside base math. HD-2D Remake rebalances to higher numbers, for example Erdrick 140, and stays out to keep NES rows clean.
