Fire Brand.png The Fire Brand is a Long Sword found in Golden Sun: The Lost Age. It can be found in a treasure chest deep within Treasure Isle, in the room with the boulder Lift puzzle and the Jupiter Djinni Gale. It can be bought for 23400 coins and sold for 17550 coins. Being a Long Sword, it can be equipped by Isaac, Felix, Garet, and Piers. It increases the wielder's attack by 176.

The Fire Brand's Unleash attack is Purgatory. Purgatory converts all damage to Mars damage and attacks with an additional 67 attack points. Also, there is a chance that it will put the target to sleep. Visually, Purgatory resembles a column of fire bursting from the ground beneath the target. The fire column then expands to cover most of the screen before contracting to the point of vanishing.

The Fire Brand is among the most powerful weapons in the game, and as such it cannot be acquired until late into the game. However, since Teleport is not needed to reach the depths of Treasure Isle, it becomes available shortly after Jupiter Lighthouse. This is relatively early compared to most of the game's high-end weapons, and as a result it may remain in someone's inventory until the end of the game. If it is obtained as soon as possible, it will most likely see much use until the Islet Cave and Anemos Sanctum become available, as then players will be able to obtain multiple Tisiphone Edges and Orihalcons, respectively. In the meantime, the Fire Brand is best given to Garet due to his natural affinity towards the element of Mars.
