==Upgrading Zodiac Braves to Zodiac Zeta==
Quests: {{questlink|feature|Rise and Shine}} & {{questlink|feature|The Vital Title}}

The upgrade is comprised of 12 Mahatmas of the original Atmas. To upgrade your weapon, you must awaken the Soul of your weapon through a method similar to [[Nexus_Zodiac_Weapons/Quest#Upgrading Novus to Nexus|Novus light farming]]. You need 40 points to awaken each Mahatmas. You can obtain points from [[dungeons]] and [[trials]]. Progress can be viewed from the Zodiac Glass. You will also be notified when ascension is complete in the chat log.

# Talk to Remon in [[Swiftperch]] in [[Western La Noscea]] to complete {{questlink|feature|Rise and Shine}}. Once the quest is complete, you can now have Remon attach Mahatma to your weapon.
# Immediately talk to [[Remon]] in [[Western La Noscea]] again to attach the first available Mahatma for {{tomestone|Poetics|50}} [[Allagan Tomestone of Poetics|Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]].
# Complete each of the 12 Mahatmas individually by running dungeons, raids, or fates until your "'''Mahatma fully awakens a sense of assertion within your Zodiac Weapon'''".
# After each Mahatma awakens, speak with Remon to attach the next available Mahatma. Repeat the process for all 12 Mahatmas.
# Speak with [[Jalzahn]] at the North Shroud and select "Zodiac Weapon of Awakening".

===Notes===
* Mahatma's bonus window is the same as Novus bonus window.
* You must have the relic weapon equipped on the last boss of the dungeon or trial in order to get light credit.
* Dungeons can also be completed undersized. As such, a convenient way to farm light points solo is The Tam-Tara Deepcroft (Level 16). Each run will give you 24 points when not on bonus, meaning 2 runs will complete the current Mahatma. Each run can be completed solo by any level 70 class in under 4 minutes in most cases. Remember that you can keep your normal weapon equipped until the last boss for quicker kills.
* More-accomplished adventurers should consider [[The Aurum Vale]]: at level 100 it can be cleared in under 2m30s, with no need to swap weapons.
* At level 100, some DPS are able to clear [[The Final Coil of Bahamut Turn 4]] solo before Bahamut jumps. This allows you to complete each mahatma in 3 clears, spending less than 20 seconds per clear.
After finishing a Mahatma, you can get the next one from [[Remon]] in [[Swiftperch]] for 50 [[Allagan Tomestone of Poetics]]. You need to complete all 12, in order, to upgrade your weapon. They are ordered as follows:

[1] Soloing 1x some dungeons is enough to fully awaken a Mahatma ''if you are in a 2-hour bonus window for it''. For high level jobs running The Aurum Vale will be quicker than Sastasha. 
[2] Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium give Steady as of the [[Patch 6.1|6.1]] changes to them, while Porta Decumana gives Faint. 
[3] Syrcus Tower/World of Darkness fully awaken a Mahatma whether they have a bonus or not. 

===Mahatma Tiers===
*You need 40 points to upgrade each Mahatma.
