Fandom:Wheat Sword

The Wheat Sword is a weapon that was created by fans as a joke. It is supposed to be the strongest weapon in the game. A user at GameFAQs named RyuKenshin took the joke to the next level when he wrote a guide to "Obtain the Wheat Sword." Since then, it has become legendary on various forums and is almost never a topic unseen on these forums. Possibly in response to Camelot's failure to release a Golden Sun 3 in a satisfactory amount of time after the release of The Lost Age, forum posters have attempted to entertain each other and expand the joke to encompass other "grain weapons of ultimate power" such as the Bread Hammer, the Grain Axe, and the Noodle Whip. However, these added weapons are viewed by all as being tacky attempts to leech from RyuKenshin's fame, and the board regulars have persuaded all the non-troll users to scorn these items and all topics relating to them.

The dubious guide that started it all is posted here in its final version before it was removed from GameFAQs:

Preface



I would like to say that it took me weeks of research to figure out how to forge the Wheat Sword, with a lot of anger, and I had to replace my GBA after throwing it against the wall...But anyways, here it is! You need to have gotten to Lemuria before you can start getting the power of the Wheat Sword.

Here is a screen shot of Felix obtaining the Wheat Sword:

 * Cutscene ends*

Wielding the Wheat Sword

The wheat sword is the most powerful sword of the game. Unfortunatly, the Wheat Sword can only be wielded by the person who wears the Mytrhil Gloves that Feizhi gives you. I don't know why, but that is the reason. Also, the Wheat Sword is a longsword, but all characters are able to wield it because of the Mythril Gloves.

Battling with the Wheat Sword

From the experiments that I've done I've found that the Wheat Sword uses the following formula for attacks...

" Physical attacks are based on Relative Attack. They have a Base Damage which is equal to (Relative Attack / 2).

Special physical attacks take this Base Damage and modify it with two variables: Mult Mod and Add Mod. The formula used is: Base Damage * Mult Mod + Add Mod

Critical hits have an inherent Mult Mod of 1.25. In addition to this, they have a variable Add Mod that depends on the target's Level: the formula being Add Mod = Target's Level / 5 + 6."

The Wheat Sword is special, in the sense that the Add Mod is multiplied by 1.75, and the Mult Mod is 1.25 normally, and becomes 1.6 on a Critical Hit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Oh noes, my friend tried the whole cheat but Felix WON against Feizhi!

A: Your friend just ruined the entire cheat. I'm sorry, but he/she will have to start a new game, or go without the wonder of the Wheat Sword.

Q: When I fused the Hilt of Fields and Wheat Metal, it split into four, and turned into alternate Kradens that had elemental Psynergy, who each had one Wheat Sword equipped!

A: I'm sorry, but you clearly did not have the Laughing Fungus in your inventory. This is the reason behind the Alternate Kradens. Run away, and retrieve the Laughing Fungus before you can move on.

Q: Is this a glitch only on his cart? Did this happen to anyone else? WILL IT HAPPEN TO ME!!!

A: No, if you are smart and kept the Laughing fungus, the alternate Kradens will laugh uncontrollably, and the real Kraden will step in and destroy them. Their Wheat Sword's are fakes, and will vanish.

Q: I tried to fight the Alternate Kradens without the Laughing Fungus, and they defeated me! Kraden was left behind, but he was unable to survive! Kraden was killed!

A: No! You are not supposed to do that! In doing that, you have unlocked the sequence of events that wll cause the world to suddenly explode! Tell your friend to destroy his Gameboy Advance and his copy of Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and burn the remains before it is too late!

Q: Okay, I did that, but my friend linked up with me to do battle mode. Is my copy of Golden Sun: The Lost Age going to experience the same horrors?

A: No, as long as he doesn't do the same thing again, we will be fine.

Q: I'm having some trouble...At the end, when Felix is supposed to wake up and join you, there's something wrong. He woke up, but ran away to join the Temple of Kraden! How do I get him back!?! Help right away please!

A: Follow Felix! You have done something wonderful! You have begun the sequence of events to unlock Kraden joining your party!
