Inventory items

Your party's inventory is available through the "Items" entry in the menu screen. It holds the items that can be acquired in the game by various means: bought, found or dropped by defeated enemies. The order in which they are sorted in the Inventory is undetermined at the moment.

The inventory's contents are split into four sub-screens/categories:

Items
Listed here are items that directly produce a benefit when used. This mainly includes various single-use potions. They can be used both from the inventory menu when the party is walking around, and during combat.

See the Items page for more details.

Weapons
These are items that usually can only be carried in the Weapon slot of the Equipment menu. In all but a handful of cases, they increase the Attack stat, the Magic Attack or both, but they also can increase other stats like Agility or Defense.

See the Equipment page for more details.

Armors
These are the rest of the equippable items. They are slot-specific: you can't put a Helm in the Accessory slot or a Headband in the Bodygear one. Usually they increase the Defense and or Magical, but all the other stats, visible or hidden (with the exception of the Luck one) can also be modified.

See the Equipment page for more details.

Sooner or later it's expected that most members of the party will start to get customized gear (both weapons and armor) that helps them to beat the high odds against them. You can learn more about them in Custom Equipment page.

Key Items
These items that can't be used from the inventory screen neither can be equipped for any party member. Of the permanent ones, the exception is the Ledger, a portfolio given to you by Megail that lists the investments that you have made during the game. Prior to the introduction of a dedicated counter, it was also the only way to see the amount of ProN available to spend. During their respective quests, both Wynn's Notebook and Uyae's Scroll can be consulted too.

In general they can be sorted in three big categories: plot items, customized items (for non-party members) and precursor items (these items are needed to create custom items).
