Yeah, he has to completely chew and consume the weapons/items in order to really GAIN anything from them.

That takes time, since they're phantasmal level items (iirc). Heck, he's probably lucky to even be able to DO that, though it's still amazing either way.

I do have to wonder if he gains extra Divine Power from these, or just the abilities in them. The reason is that they were formed from the extra Divine Power in the dungeons manifesting into these items.

By consuming these items, it may be possible (though I don't know if it's been explicitly stated either way, heh) for him to get ahold of that extra divine power that he couldn't get thorugh the system under normal circumstances.
