its not so much that the weapons are indivitually bad in any sense. Each weapon has abilities that give the warrior and edge weather is the range of the bow the speed of a lance, the strenght of the sword or the Iron wall defence of the shield each has a roll, the shield isn't as flashy but being able to stop a blow that would other wise kill your entire group is perfectly useful as you could then out last an oppent, death by 1000 cuts. The problem is that the weapons are basicly tied to the wielders abilities as tact demonstrated when he stole them he couldn't access a lot of the functions of the shield these are because they are part of the wielder the weapon is just the focus to breing them into being. the issue with the other 3 is that the people using them are using them half ass because they think its a video game and that they can not die, Naofumi knows its not a game and is fighting seriously and working hard to improve while the other 3 are fooling around. I would say the fault with the weapons are more with the uses than with the weapons themselves, the only thing against the shield is that it has no attack power but consider that the heros are ment to fight with people that is not really an issue infact its a much greater strengh as it rendered him almost immune to damage from low level enemies it ment he could fight enemies that are more powerful at lower levels and grow faster if its simimilar to rpgs at all which there are elements. Also consider that in most games raw power is good and will get you through most of the way but buffing abilies like what the shield uses are usually a way to make u far more powerful and since your defending instead of attacking yourself its a logical speicalization, though im not sure if its part of the shields default abilities either way it is what give him an edge of the 3 twits
