(In case your chosen job is excessive degree, you’ll be able to select to do the obligation unsynced, permitting you to defeat it rapidly by your self.) Discuss to Gerolt once more when you’ve completed the trial.
- Discuss to Rowena in Revenant’s Toll and enter the dungeon “Amdapor Hold” because the job you’re doing the weapon for to get an Amdapor Glyph. (You are able to do this unsynced once more, when you’re a excessive sufficient degree.) Give Rowena the Amdapor Glyph.
- Head again to Gerolt and provides him the e-book that Rowena gave you. He’ll offer you an “unfinished” model of your weapon. Equip it and defeat the enemies listed. (The enemies are depending on what job you’re enjoying as.)
- After speaking to Gerolt once more, full the trial “A Relic Reborn: The Hydra” together with your unfinished weapon outfitted. (Identical to the opposite steps, you are able to do this unsynced.)
- Unequip your weapon and hand it again to Gerolt.
- You’ll now be tasked with grabbing three gadgets from primals. Full the trials “The Bowl of Embers (Arduous)” to get a White-Scorching Ember, “The Howling Eye (Arduous)” to get a Howling Gale, and “The Navel (Arduous)” to get a Hyperfused Ore, in that order. You have to to finish these trials because the job you’re getting the weapon for, in fact. (And sure, you are able to do these unsynced, too.) Hand the three gadgets over to Gerolt.

Step 2: Find out how to get your Zenith Zodiac weapon
So long as you might have your Zodiac weapon in-hand from the 1st step, it’s best to have the ability to full this half easy-peasy. To get your Zenith Zodiac weapon, do the next:

Step 3: Find out how to get your Atma Zodiac weapon
The Atma step may be grindy, as it is advisable full FATEs to be able to improve your weapon. To begin it, you’ll have to do the next:
- Equip your Zenith Zodiac weapon and discuss to Gerolt in North Shroud to just accept the search “Up in Arms.” After ending your dialog with Gerolt, flip round and discuss to Jalzahn on the constructing in entrance of Gerolt.
- Farm 12 Atma from FATEs in from their respective areas with a Zodiac Zenith weapon outfitted. It doesn’t essentially should be the one you’re upgrading.
- Unequip your Zodiac Zenith weapon and switch in each the weapon and all 12 Atma to Jalzahn to get your Atma Zodiac weapon.
You have to gather one in every of every Atma, which comes from totally different areas. They’re situated as follows:
- Atma of the Archer: North Shroud
- Atma of the Goat: East Shroud
- Atma of the Maiden: Central Shroud
- Atma of the Lion: Outer La Noscea
- Atma of the Water-bearer: Higher La Noscea
- Atma of the Ram: Center La Noscea
- Atma of the Crab: Western La Noscea
- Atma of the Fish: Decrease La Noscea
- Atma of the Bull: Jap Thanalan
- Atma of the Scales: Central Thanalan
- Atma of the Twins: Western Thanalan
- Atma of the Scorpion: Southern Thanalan
You’ll have to do FATEs in these areas to get the precise Atma. It doesn’t matter which FATEs you do within the space, however you do have to have a Zodiac Zenith weapon outfitted whilst you do them. The FATEs solely have an opportunity to drop an Atma, that means it’s possible you’ll get unfortunate and should do fairly a little bit of FATEs to get your weapon.
Your weapon will lose its glow, however get a brand new colorway.
![A FFXIV Viera stands in the snow with a staff with a blue and gold head with a giant red gem glowing in the center.](https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/sxKqPyFxTrIkzel2uDFnfy9FNr8=/0x0:2560x1440/1200x0/filters:focal(0x0:2560x1440):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25413768/ffxiv_dx11_2024_04_19_13_15_48.jpg)

Step 4: Find out how to get your Animus Zodiac weapon
This half might be the sloggiest of all of it, so brace your self. Simply as a reminder, making a relic weapon is a marathon, not a dash (very like FFXIV as a complete), so keep in mind to take breaks as obligatory. Earlier than you leap in, it’s best to just be sure you have the next dungeons unlocked:
You don’t have to finish the dungeon or quest, simply unlock the dungeon. (Actually, you’ll have to run these for this step, so that you would possibly as nicely wait and knock out two birds with one stone.)
To make your Animus weapon, you’ll have to do the next:
- Equip your Atma Zodiac weapon and discuss to Jalzahn to begin the search “Trial of the Braves.”
- He’ll let you know to go discuss to Rowena, who will redirect you to G’jusana in Mor Dhona.
- Purchase a specialty e-book from G’jusana for 100 Allagan Tomestones of Poetics, open the e-book out of your key merchandise stock, and try what the e-book asks of you. The e-book will job you with killing 10 totally different enemies, together with finishing three dungeons, three FATEs, and three levequests.
- Full the duties within the e-book after which head again to G’jusana to purchase the following one. You have to full 9 books complete to complete this step of your weapon (900 Poetics complete).
- When you end out the 9 books, unequip your Atma Zodiac weapon, discuss to Jalzahn, and choose “Relic Weapon Atma Enhancement” to improve it to an Animus weapon.
The e-book stuff is fairly straight-forward, albeit grindy. There are 9 totally different books to finish, every with their very own set of stuff to do. Fairly than itemizing the entire aims right here (there are a ton), I’d suggest consulting the Remaining Fantasy 14 On-line Wiki to go down the record of books, retaining the web page in your present e-book open and finishing every goal space by space. On your sake, right here’s a listing of all of the books with hyperlinks:
Word that if the levequest that it is advisable do isn’t showing within the record of obtainable leves, you’ll be able to refresh the record by finishing one. Some FATEs received’t spawn except one other FATE will get accomplished, which is why I like to recommend you wanting on the Wiki record.
You’ll rapidly understand that every e-book has you basically operating backwards and forwards between the identical areas, making this job extraordinarily annoying, particularly since you’ll be able to’t have a number of books without delay. Fortunately, when you’re overleveled, the enemies, dungeons, and levequests needs to be fast work, and the FATEs nonetheless shouldn’t be too unhealthy even when it forces you to degree sync. (As a degree 90 White Mage, I used to be capable of full all of the books fully solo – and my gear is fairly outdated.)
This step is basically tough however you’ll finally get into the rhythm, realizing the place it is advisable go along with every e-book quicker as you full extra books. We obtained the entire duties achieved in Mor Dhona first, would then go to Coerthas for these steps, after which go straight to Camp Bluefog in Northern Thanalan for levequests, after which undergo all of the zones in Thanalan, Shroud, and La Noscea in that order.
Your weapon is glowing once more!

Step 5: Find out how to get your Novus Zodiac weapon
After the Animus step, this step seems like nothing, particularly when you’ve been sitting on Poetics for some time.
To get your Novus weapon, do the next:
- Together with your weapon outfitted, discuss to Jalzahn to begin the search “Celestial Radiance” and observe the steps to finish it. You have to to purchase 3 bottles of Superior Enchanted Ink for 25 Poetics every (75 Poetics complete) throughout this quest. You should purchase these from Auriana in Mor Dhona or from the Rowena’s Consultant NPCs in Ishgard, Limsa Lominsa, Gridania, and Ul’dah.
- Discuss to Hubairtin to begin the search “Star Gentle, Star Vivid” and commerce the ink for a Sphere Scroll in your weapon. You’ll now have a Sphere Scroll in your stock you could open freely.
- You’ll have to infuse 75 materia into your Sphere Scroll. Along with the 75 materia, you’ll want 75 Alexandrite, which is required to fusing the materia into the scroll. The stats and materia you connect to your weapon doesn’t actually matter since these weapons are extraordinarily outdated and it’s best to solely be utilizing these for glamour.
- After you have your 75 materia in your Sphere Scroll, return to Jalzahn together with your weapon outfitted to finish the search.
- Unequip your weapon, discuss to him once more and choose “Relic Weapon Animus Enhancement” to improve to your Novus weapon.
Find out how to use the Sphere Scroll
The Sphere Scroll is a bizarre mechanic that we by no means actually see once more after this. It’s important to meld 11 materia of 1 tier so as to have the ability to meld the following tier. So when you’re beginning out, you’ll have to efficiently meld 11 Piety I materia earlier than you’ll be able to meld any Piety II materia and so forth. As talked about, the stats right here don’t matter, so we simply purchased a bunch of the most affordable materia we may off the marketboard.
Degree one materia can get costly because it’s a little bit of a rarity – you’ll be able to solely get it from the marketboard or by extracting materials from absolutely spiritbonded low-level gear. This is the reason this course of isn’t nice at no cost trial gamers.
The place to get Alexandrite
There are just a few methods to get Alexandrite:
- Incomes a gold ranking in FATEs together with your Animus weapon outfitted (once more!)
- Finishing Mysterious Maps as any job with any weapon, which you should buy from Auriana in Mor Dhona for 75 Poetics every. To do that, you’ll have to have the Decipher and Dig talent, which unlocks from the search “Treasures and Tribulations.” Every map drops 5 Alexandrite.
- Shopping for the Alexandrite for 50 Allied Seals every out of your Grand Firm Hunt Billmaster.
I truthfully suggest doing a little bit of every thing. You’ll be able to solely technically carry three maps without delay (one in your stock, one deciphered one, and one in your chocobo saddlebag), so going backwards and forwards to Mor Dhona is usually a ache. That being mentioned, I had a handful of Allied Seals to spend, so going half-and-half was good.

Step 6: Find out how to get your Nexus Zodiac Weapon
Are you able to do extra ARR duties? Wahoo! To get your Nexus weapon, you’ll have to do the next:
- Equip your relic weapon and discuss to Jalzahn to begin the search “Mmmmmm, Soulglazed Relics” (this sport is so unserious) to get a Zodiac Glass.
- Discuss to Jalzahn and choose “Zodiac Relic Weapon Novus Soulglazing” and choose your weapon so as to add the Soulglazed impact to it.
- Fill your weapon with mild by doing content material, like dungeons, trials, and FATEs. You’ll be able to test the sunshine ranges of your weapon by utilizing the Zodiac Glass in your stock. It’s important to full the obligation together with your relic weapon outfitted to achieve mild.
- As soon as the Zodiac Glass says it has “bursting exercise,” head again to Jalzahn together with your weapon unequipped and choose “Relic Weapon Novus Enhancement” to improve right into a Nexus weapon.
Find out how to earn mild to soulglaze your weapon
Doing totally different A Realm Reborn content material gives you totally different ranges of mild and among the duties gives you bonus mild. The duties that give bonus mild rotate randomly each two hours and you’ll run any of the content material unsynced, so long as your weapon is supplied at completion.
The sunshine values rewarded and wanted to finish your weapon are invisible, however you want 2,000 mild for it to have “bursting exercise.”
When you’re doing this solo, the quickest strategy to rake in mild in your weapon is to run “The Bowl of Embers” unsynced. Since you’ll be able to instantly obliterate Ifrit, it’s best to have the ability to clear the obligation in a matter of seconds, making it very quick, albeit grindy (once more) to finish. With no bonus, regular provides 8 mild. We had been capable of get by way of three Ifrit fights in a minute, netting in a simple 24 mild per minute.
In case you have a good friend who’s keen to spend a couple of minutes serving to you out, you’ll be able to select to run “The Bowl of Embers (Excessive)” with them. In case your good friend is equipped at degree 90, they need to have the ability to one- or two-shot Ifrit, permitting you to web in 32 mild per run and round 96 per minute.
When you don’t like operating Ifrit, you’ll be able to all the time form of go down the record of content material to maintain issues just a little extra partaking. Most ARR dungeons gives you 48 mild, with just a few giving much less. Under you’ll be able to see how a lot mild every obligation rewards.
