Zodiac Weapons are the level 50 Relic Weapons for A Realm Reborn. They were the first relic weapon series to be introduced in the game and are upgraded by completing a series of tasks which is described in the "Quest" pages for each step, listed below.

Replicas of the Zodiac Weapons (for glamour) can be purchased from Drake if you either have the corresponding final-stage Zodiac Zeta Weapon in your inventory or turn in the Zodiac Zeta Weapon as part of the Anima Weapon quest Repeatable Feature QuestSoul without Life.

  • If you have previously acquired a Zodiac Zeta Weapon and then discarded it without turning it in, you will need to re-do the entire upgrade process for the weapon to unlock the corresponding job's replica weapons.

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 Allagan Tomestone of Poetics Allagan Tomestones of Poetics. For level 50, these would be Augmented Ironworks Magitek Weapons.

Lore

Eorzea has witnessed a resurgence of the old ways in recent days, as adventurers the realm over take up the ancient trades of warrior and dragoon, bard and black mage, and more. Now, it is the traditional weaponry of these old mantles that are sought, the means of their making long since lost to the ages. It would seem this longing for things past and old is not limited merely to the schools of war and magic. The reformation of Eorzea's Grand Companies was born of a longing in the hearts of the free peoples of Eorzea — a longing for the days of old and the peace they knew. It is a sentiment that has since spread to the realm's adventurers, guiding them toward the rediscovery of trades from a former age that had all but died out. Small wonder, then, that those who have mastered these ancient ways of battle and sorcery now seek the weapons of eld which will enable them to realize the truest expression of their newfound powers. Thus have adventurers begun their quest for the relics.

Note2.png
Unlike newer relics, most of the quests for the A Realm Reborn weapons are not repeatable. Instead, the player is given the instructions and the quest completes itself. After performing the steps, the required items can then be turned in to the vendor with the correct weapon in inventory. If the instructions need to be reviewed in-game, they can be found in the Completed section of the Journal.

Main article: Zodiac Weapons/Quest

For detailed information about this step, see the above link.

Introduced in Patch 2.0 and carried over from Legacy, the original fabled Zodiac Weapons are Item Level 80 and the starting block for all future Zodiac upgrades. To begin the quest for the first time speak with Nedrick Ironheart at Vesper Bay, Western Thanalan and acquire the quest Feature QuestThe Weaponsmith of Legend. For every Zodiac Weapon or job, you will need to complete a job-specific version of the quest Feature QuestA Relic Reborn. You can also repurchase any Zodiac Weapon you have already created from the Calamity Salvager in Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks, Old Gridania and Ul'dah Steps of Thal for Gil 1,000 Gil (700 + 300 for paladin sword and shield). However you will need to repeat any tasks to upgrade your zodiac weapon again.

Hubairtin is able to overcome this in the Side Quest Feature QuestCelestial Radiance by converting the power of materia into a form of light energy. This leads you to the Side Quest Feature QuestStar Light, Star Bright where you are able to customize your weapon by melding 75 different materias with Alexandrite icon1.png  Alexandrite onto a Sphere Scroll. When upgraded, Novus Zodiac Weapons will glow bright yellow / gold when unsheathed.
