Sell prices
The Sell (Gil) amount shows what a shop offers for a greatsword. Ragnarok brings in 50, Lightbringer 2,000, and Save the Vermillion 250, so resale value doesn’t indicate strength. To sell any greatsword, use the Sell tab at any shop; the process matches what’s described for Felicitas shops.
