The Brave Lance is a single weapon, as is the Brave Bow. It was probably easier than hacking in new weapons just for personal/near-personal weapons. Therefore an enemy with a brave bow is immune to magic as Wolf is with it, and enemies with brave lances become the ultimate anti-flier units. As for divinestone Gordin, he just uses the Tiki sprite at all times, so his non-divinestone attacks are the odd ones. He just kinda waves an arm at the enemy and combat stops, it doesn't even show the damage until combat ends. As for the other questions, I have no answer unfortunately.

If not for the fact that Gotoh can use it to OHKO bosses at least all the way up to chapter 16 on hard-3 with it plus near-base magic, I would say leave it for sure, but at this point it can trivialize most bosses since they're usually either armored or mounted. Anyways, I noticed that this patch seems to boost Julian's stats through the roof, his bases were enough to take on promoted units with relative ease, despite being lower level than his normal self. Not sure if this warrants a change, since it is rather funny, but it's definitely something to note for if you set up the draft you mentioned previously.

Is Gotoh's Excalibur supposed to have a forge cost of 0? Its currently able to become a 15 might, 150 hit, 40 crit weapon for free.
