Climhazzard. Especially since it lets you target all foes. Very useful against enemies like Yans.

Cool. What weapon's can I get those Stock Break, ThunderSlash, Climhazzard and shock from? I have the Ultima Sword (Rune Blade) but yeah, it only gives me lai. Hopefully it's not excalibur II... btw, has anyone here gotten excalibur II with out any modifiers?
I haven't even heard about Iai Strike. Ragnarok teaches you Shock. Excalibur teaches you Climhazzard. IMHO, Excalibur and Climhazzard are easier to get than Ragnarok and Shock. That's because you get Excalibur just by buying 4 items from Treno Auction House (and then selling them), but you need to do a lot of Chocobo stuff to get Ragnarok.

You get Stock Break from the Ultima Sword and Thunder Slash from both Defender and Ragnarok. BTW Ultima Sword and Rune Blade aren't the same thing.
