Resistance Weapons

PhiNyx: For the remaining 16 weapons you don't need 64,000 Tometones, you only need 16,000, because one weapon costs 1,000 Tomestones = 4 Scalepowders. Just a minor math error

[[Resistance Weapons]] are the level 80 [[Relic Weapons]] for [[Shadowbringers]] first released in [[Patch 5.25]]. Players need to complete the [[Resistance Weapons/Quest|Resistance Weapons quest chain]] to obtain one of the relics, and they are heavily tied in with the {{questlink|bsf|Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr}} storyline. As players advance through the Resistance Weapons quests they will be able to obtain job-specific weapons which can be enhanced as they progress. The Resistance Weapon quests employ a system which will require players to proceed using the same class or job with which they accepted the quest.

In contrast to [[Eurekan Weapons]], wherein all upgrade items are obtained from {{questlink|eureka|the Forbidden Land, Eureka}}, players can choose to either participate in Save the Queen content for upgrade items or obtain them from other means. However, proceeding to a certain point in the Save the Queen storyline is required to unlock the final stages of Resistance Weapons.

[[Replica Resistance Weapons|Replicas of completed Resistance Weapons]] can be purchased from [[Regana]] once players have finished {{questlink|repfeature|The Will to Resist}}.

'''Relic weapons from past expansions are not intended for combat use*, but for cosmetic, [[achievements]], and collection purposes.''' Weapons of similar power, for the same player level, that are much more easily obtainable and are intended for character progression can be bought with {{tomestone|Poetics}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]].'''

<nowiki>*</nowiki>Final-stage (Blade's) weapons are considered "best-in-slot" for older (Lv. 70 and 80) [[ultimate raids]] due to having more substats when synced down. However, the gains in damage compared to using a Lv. 90 weapon are marginal, and it is not necessary to go out of one's way to acquire them.

==Lore==
For years, Bozja─homeland of the Hrothgar─has remained at the mercy of Garlean rulers. But the Empire has fallen into disarray, and the people of Doma and Ala Mhigo have risen up to challenge their authority. The Bozjans, while heartened at this news, yet lack the means to join the rebellion. To that end, they seek a standard under which their people may gather. A weapon of legend...

==Resistance Weapons (IL 485)==
{{main|Resistance Weapons/Quest}}

===One-time segment===
Before beginning to create your [[Resistance Weapon]], you must:
* Reach level 80 for your chosen [[job]] as a [[Disciple of War]] or [[Disciple of Magic]].
* Complete [[Main Scenario Quests]]: {{questlink|main|Shadowbringers (Quest)}}.
* Complete [[Side Quest]]: {{questlink|feature|The City of Lost Angels}}.

Once the above conditions are met, players can speak to [[Zlatan]] in [[Gangos]] and complete the [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] chain {{questlink|feature|Hail to the Queen}}> {{questlink|feature|Path to the Past}} > {{questlink|feature|The Bozja Incident}} > {{questlink|feature|Fire in the Forge}}.

Upon completing {{questlink|feature|Fire in the Forge}}, players will receive one resistance weapon based on the job with which they progressed through that quest. The above required quests are only done once and do not need to be repeated.

===Repeatable segment===
For subsequent relics, you will need to complete the [[Repeatable Quests|Repeatable Quest]] {{questlink|repfeature|Resistance Is (Not) Futile}}, in which [[Zlatan]] requires you to obtain and turn in 4 {{item icon|Thavnairian Scalepowder}}s (Available at [[Auriana]] in [[Revenant's Toll]] (x: 22.7 - y: 6.7), [[Hismena]] in [[Idyllshire]] (x: 5.8 - y:5.2), or [[Sundry Splendors]] near the main [[Aetheryte]] in any major city except [[Kugane]] and [[the Crystarium]] for 250 {{tomestone|Poetics}}[[Allagan Tomestone of Poetics|Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] each, or {{tomestone|Poetics|1000}} total).

==Augmented Resistance Weapons (IL 500)==
{{main|Augmented Resistance Weapons/Quest}}

Repeatable Quest: {{questlink|repfeature|For Want of a Memory}}

To upgrade their weapons, players need to be level 80 with a [[Disciple of War]] or [[Disciple of Magic]] and the [[Main Scenario Quest]] {{questlink|main|Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty}} and both the [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] {{questlink|feature|Where Eagles Nest}} and the [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] {{questlink|feature|A Sober Proposal}}, as well as own one of the Resistance Weapons obtained in the [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] {{questlink|feature|Fire in the Forge}}.

Players can take the first step to upgrading their relics by speaking to [[Zlatan]] in [[Gangos]] and completing the [[Repeatable Quests|Repeatable Quest]] {{questlink|repfeature|For Want of a Memory}} by trading in 20 {{item icon|Tortured Memory of the Dying|alt=Tortured Memories of the Dying}}, 20 {{item icon|Sorrowful Memory of the Dying|alt=Sorrowful Memories of the Dying}} and 20 {{item icon|Harrowing Memory of the Dying|alt=Harrowing Memories of the Dying}} obtained as random drops from Skirmishes, Critical Engagements, and enemies found in {{questlink|bsf|The Bozjan Southern Front}} or as guaranteed drops from [[FATE]]s located in [[Heavensward]] areas. You do not need to have your Resistance weapon equipped, or even be the same job, to earn tortured/sorrowful/harrowing memories.

Although Critical Engagements may not be the fastest way to collect memories of the dying, it's highly recommended that you run Critical Engagements anyway until you reach rank 10, because that's required for one of the later steps.

After reaching rank 10, you may prefer to farm any remaining memories of the dying from Heavensward FATEs, as the drop rate is merely average in Bozja, but 100% from Heavensward FATEs with Gold rating.

==Law's Order Weapons (IL 510)==
{{main|Law's Order Weapons/Quest}}

Repeatable quest: {{questlink|repfeature|Change of Arms}}

Before you can proceed, you will first need to raise your Resistance Rank in Bozja to 10 and complete {{questlink|ce-assault|Castrum Lacus Litore}}. Then you'll need to complete the one-time [[Side Quests]] {{questlink|type=feature|name=A Sign of What's to Come}}, {{questlink|feature|Fit for a Queen}}, and {{questlink|feature|In the Queen's Image}} to advance the [[Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr]] story. This will require completing a solo story instanced duty,
as well as clearing the {{questlink|del-reg|Delubrum Reginae}} raid.

The next stage comes from the [[Repeatable Quests|Repeatable Quest]] {{questlink|repfeature|Change of Arms}}. You will need to obtain and turn in 15 {{item icon|Loathsome Memory of the Dying|alt=Loathsome Memories of the Dying}}. They can be acquired from any of the following sources:

When upgraded to Law's Order, the weapons will have a new model, and will no longer glow.

==First One-Time Grind==
Before you can unlock the ability to augment your Law's Order weapon, you will need to complete the one-time [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] {{questlink|feature|The Resistance Remembers}}, which requires you to collect and turn in 18 {{item icon|Haunting Memory of the Dying|alt=Haunting Memories of the Dying}} and 18 {{item icon|Vexatious Memory of the Dying|alt=Vexatious Memories of the Dying}}. This grind only needs to be done once, and does not need to be repeated for additional weapons.

==Augmented Law's Order Weapons (IL 515)==
{{main|Augmented Law's Order Weapons/Quest}}

Repeatable quest: {{questlink|repfeature|A New Path of Resistance}}

Afterwards, to upgrade your weapon you will need to complete the [[Repeatable Quests|Repeatable Quest]] {{questlink|repfeature|A New Path of Resistance}}, which requires you to collect and turn in 15 {{item icon|Timeworn Artifact}}s. Upon turning them in, you will need to decide how to allocate the stats on your weapon.

{| {{STDT|item align-left}}

| 1 (random drop)
|}

When upgraded to Augmented Law's Order, the weapons will gain a glow effect.

This is arguably the most annoying step in the Shadowbringers relic weapon series, especially because it must be repeated for each weapon the player wishes to obtain. The easiest way to acquire Timeworn Artifacts is to farm the {{questlink|del-reg|Delubrum Reginae}} raid. Solo queuing using the Duty Finder equivalent is not recommended due to the unpopularity of the duty since the release of [[Endwalker]] (patch 6.0). While the queue is guaranteed to pop after 10 minutes, only a few players will likely be matched and the run could take a long time (1 hr+). A better method is to use [[Party Finder]], preferably at peak hours in the data center. Note that these groups will require the use of damage-boosting [[Item-related Lost Actions|Essences]] to expedite the run. There are also various Bozja-oriented Discord servers that sometimes have scheduled Delubrum Reginae runs.

===Reallocation of Stats (Optional)===
Should you decide the stats on your Augmented Law's Order weapon need to be changed, you can do so by talking to the [[Allagan Node]] (x5.9, y4.8) in [[Gangos]] and selecting "Forged Anew". You will need to equip your Augmented Law's Order weapon and turn in 4 phials of {{item icon|Aetherial Sealant}}, which can be purchased from [[Auriana]] in [[Revenant's Toll]] (x: 22.7 - y: 6.7) or [[Hismena]] in [[Idyllshire]] (x: 5.8 - y:5.2) for 100 {{tomestone|Poetics}}[[Allagan Tomestone of Poetics|Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] each, or {{tomestone|Poetics|400}} total.

==Second One-Time Grind==
After completing both the one-time quest {{questlink|feature|A New Playing Field}} to unlock [[Zadnor]] ''and'' the [[Repeatable Quests|Repeatable Quest]] {{questlink|repfeature|A New Path of Resistance}} for your chosen weapon, you can complete the one-time quest {{questlink|feature|What Dreams Are Made Of}}, which explains the next steps and requires you to talk to some NPCs. After that you will need to complete the following one-time quests: {{questlink|feature|Spare Parts}}, {{questlink|feature|Tell Me a Story}}, and {{questlink|feature|A Fond Memory}}, you can pick them all up at once. This grind only needs to be done once, and does not need to be repeated for additional weapons.
* {{questlink|feature|Spare Parts}}: Collect 30 {{item icon|Compact Axle}}s and 30 {{item icon|Compact Spring}}s.
* {{questlink|feature|Tell Me a Story}}: Collect 30 copies of {{item icon|A Day in the Life: Battles for the Realm}} and 30 copies of {{item icon|A Day in the Life: Beyond the Rift}}.
* {{questlink|feature|A Fond Memory}}: Collect 30 {{item icon|Bleak Memory of the Dying|alt=Bleak Memories of the Dying}} and 30 {{item icon|Lurid Memory of the Dying|alt=Lurid Memories of the Dying}}.

|}

The raids present an alternative source of obtaining these items that does not require participating in Zadnor content. '''Raids must be run synced, with a full party (8 members)!''' In general, the quickest raids to run are:
* {{questlink|raid|Alexander - The Fist of the Father}} (A1) and {{questlink|raid|Alexander - The Burden of the Father}} (A4)
* {{questlink|raid|Deltascape V1.0}} (O1) and {{questlink|raid|Deltascape V3.0}} (O3)
* {{questlink|raid|Eden's Gate: Resurrection}} (E1) and {{questlink|raid|Eden's Gate: Inundation}} (E3).

With this relic series no longer being current content, queuing for the raids repeatedly in [[Duty Finder]] is not as fast as it previously was. It may be worthwhile to make a [[Party Finder]] party with 6 DPS, 1 tank, and 1 healer for more efficient farming.

After completing the three quests listed above, complete the one time quest {{questlink|feature|A Done Deal}}.

==Blade's Weapons (IL 535)==
{{main|Blade's Weapons/Quest}}

Repeatable quest: {{questlink|repfeature|Irresistible}}

Next, you will need to do the repeatable quest {{questlink|repfeature|Irresistible}}, which requires you to collect 15 {{item icon|Raw Emotion}}s. These can be obtained from the following sources:

{| {{STDT|item align-left}}
|-
! Location !! {{item icon|Raw Emotion}}s
|-
| {{questlink|ce-assault|The Dalriada}} || 3
|-
| {{questlink|del-reg|Delubrum Reginae}} || 2
|-
| Level 70 [[Stormblood]] {{questlink|dungeon|Dungeon}}s
* '''Dungeons must be run synced, with a light party (4 members)!'''
* A popular option is {{questlink|dungeon|Hell's Lid}}.
* Premade parties of {{BLU}} [[Blue Mage]]s can clear quickly.
| 1
|-
| {{questlink|ddungeon|Heaven-on-High}}
* Higher floors have greater drop chance.
| 1 (random drop)
|}

Upon turning in the quest, you will need to decide how to allocate the stats on your weapon.

This step will complete the Blade's weapon, which will gain a new model and a glow effect. In addition to the Replica that [[Regana]] sells, she will also offer a "Matte Replica" version of the Blade's weapon, which has the same model, but no glow effect. Replicas cost {{gil|1000}} each.
