Lightbringer

The Lightbringer , also known as Illumina, is a weapon in the Final Fantasy series. It is usually one of, if not the strongest sword available, and is associated with the Holy element, meaning it is particularly effective against the undead. It functions as a ranged weapon in Final Fantasy IV and VI.
== Appearances ==
=== Final Fantasy ===
The Lightbringer appears from the Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls port onward, and is the Red Wizard's ultimate weapon. It can drop from Death Gaze in the Whisperwind Cove. If used as an item, it will cast Holy. It provides +50 Evasion, +7 Strength, Agility, Intelligence, and Stamina, and has Attack of 48, Accuracy of 40 and Critical of 37.
=== Final Fantasy IV ===
The Lightbringer appears in the Advance and Complete Collection ports, and is Cecil's best weapon. It is obtained by performing noble deeds, as is a Paladin's job, in Cecil's Lunar Trial. It randomly casts Holy when Cecil attacks with it. It has an Attack of 255 and an Accuracy of 49. It also adds +15 to Strength, Stamina, and Agility. This weapon is metallic and unusually, deals normal damage from the back row.
==== Final Fantasy IV: The After Years ====
The Lightbringer was dummied out, and the only way to acquire it is through hacking via Homebrew. The description says "Removed from title", as with many other items available in Advance version that do not appear. It can, however, be used as a weapon. It has an Attack of 255 and an Accuracy of 99%. It also adds +15 to Strength, Stamina, and Speed.
=== Final Fantasy VI ===
Lightbringer (originally translated as Illumina) is the most powerful weapon and sword obtained by betting the Ragnarok in the Dragon's Neck Coliseum. It has an attack power of 255, and increases Strength, Speed, Stamina, and Magic by 7 and increases Evasion and Magic Evasion by 50% each.
It has a random chance of casting the Holy spell in addition to its attack. It consumes 20 MP each turn to perform an automatic critical hit, and enables the Bushido and Runic commands (although Cyan can't equip it without a Merit Award). The weapon is a long range weapon. Terra, Locke, Edgar, and Celes can equip it.
In the SNES version, due to the Evade bug, the Evasion bonus does nothing, and the Magic Evasion bonus also affects physical attacks. Lightbringer is affected by the Capture glitch.
