Actually Escaflownes other weapons lie in its two shoulder energist crystals. In a vision a whole bunch of Escaflowne's use these green shoulder crystals to destroy multiple floating fortresses. Also, Escaflowne's main power source, its red left shoulder crystal with the drag energist is made up of the same stone that Hitomi's pendant is made up of which has the power to grant wishes. Also, in one episode Escaflowne's energist crystal on its left chest side gives Hitomi a vision of Duek Freid's death. Basically that energist crystal is a massive version of Hitomi's pendant. In one episode that crystal also gives Escaflowne the ability to teleport to. Escaflowne's strength enables ti to grab the region of an enemy cockpit and crush it to. Also, if you notice, Escaflowne's great sword, which is its main weapon also can be magically charged up to deal greater blows. If you notice the progression of the damage that it does throughout the series increases as Van become one with his Guymelef. No wonder why the repair bill for fixing Escaflowne cost so much. Really Escaflowne's abilities arent really arent set. They seem to be able to match what the pilot of it wants.

To be honest, I never saw this show, but I did see the movie. Everything I know about the original show comes from a friend who owns the whole dvd collection, the movie, and the abridged series
