Zodiac | '''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. | ||
[[Replica Zodiac Weapons|Replicas of the Zodiac Weapons]] (for [[glamour]]) can be purchased from [[Drake]] if you either have the corresponding final-stage [[Zodiac Zeta Weapons|Zodiac Zeta Weapon]] in your inventory or turn in the Zodiac Zeta Weapon as part of the [[Anima Weapons|Anima Weapon]] quest {{questlink|repfeature|Soul 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 {{tomestone|Poetics}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]].''' For level 50, these would be [[Augmented Ironworks Magitek Weapons]]. | |||
==Lore== | |||
{{quotation|FFXIV Lodestone (legacy)|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.}} | |||
{{NoteBox | 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.}} | |||

==Zodiac Weapons (iLvl 80)== | |||
{{main|Zodiac Weapons/Quest}} | |||
'''For detailed information about this step, see the above link.''' | |||
Introduced in [[Patch 2.0]] and carried over from [[Patch 1.23b|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 {{questlink|feature|The Weaponsmith of Legend}}. For every Zodiac Weapon or [[job]], you will need to complete a [[job]]-specific version of the quest {{questlink|feature|A 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|Ul'dah Steps of Thal]] for {{gil|1000}} [[Gil]] (700 + 300 for [[paladin]] sword and shield). However you will need to repeat any tasks to upgrade your zodiac weapon again. | |||

{{main|Zenith Zodiac Weapons/Quest}} | |||
'''For detailed information about this step, see the above link.''' | |||
Also introduced in [[Patch 2.0]], Zenith Zodiac Weapons are an upgraded version of the original [[Item Level]] 90 Zodiac Weapons. Zenith Zodiac Weapons used to be called "Relic Weapon +1" (e.g. "Bravura +1") but the name was changed to "Relic Weapon Zenith" (e.g. "Bravura Zenith") in [[patch 2.1]]. Unlike all other upgrades, upgrading to a Zenith Relic Weapon is extremely easy and simply involves 3 {{item icon|Thavnairian Mist}}s. When upgraded at the furnace near Gerolt, Zenith Zodiac Weapons get a faint coloured glow (colour varies depending on weapon) when unsheathed. | |||

Introduced in [[Patch 2.2]], the Atma Zodiac Weapons (item level 100) are the third stage of the Zodiac Weapons. [[Jalzahn]] takes over from [[Gerolt]] as your new guide and weaponsmith. Your task for the quest {{questlink|feature|Up in Arms}} is to grind [[FATE]]s in various zones of [[Eorzea]] for items known as Atmas, which drop randomly upon successful completion of a [[FATE]]. (The quest only needs to be completed once, for your first Atma Zodiac weapon; for each additional weapon you'll still need to acquire all Atmas, equip the Relic Weapon and talk to [[Jalzahn]].) When upgraded, Atma Zodiac Weapons will no longer glow when unsheathed and will have a minor color change. | |||

'''For detailed information about this step, see the above link.''' | |||
Introduced in [[Patch 2.28]], the Novus Zodiac Weapons (item level 110) are the fifth stage of the Zodiac Weapons and is unique for allowing players to customize their weapon. [[Jalzahn]] believes that your weapon may yet grow stronger through the power of [[materia]] but that that conventional melding will not work due to the preclusive presence of soul energy. [[Hubairtin]] is able to overcome this in the [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] {{questlink|feature|Celestial Radiance}} by converting the power of [[materia]] into a form of light energy. This leads you to the [[Side Quests|Side Quest]] {{questlink|feature|Star Light, Star Bright}} where you are able to customize your weapon by melding 75 different [[materia]]s with {{item icon|Alexandrite}} onto a [[Sphere Scroll]]. When upgraded, Novus Zodiac Weapons will glow bright yellow / gold when unsheathed. | |||

- See also: Replica Zodiac Weapons
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 Soul 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 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.
— FFXIV Lodestone (legacy)
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.
Zodiac Weapons (iLvl 80)
- 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 The Weaponsmith of Legend. For every Zodiac Weapon or job, you will need to complete a job-specific version of the quest A 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 1,000 Gil (700 + 300 for paladin sword and shield). However you will need to repeat any tasks to upgrade your zodiac weapon again.

Zenith Zodiac Weapons (iLvl 90)
- Main article: Zenith Zodiac Weapons/Quest
For detailed information about this step, see the above link.
Also introduced in Patch 2.0, Zenith Zodiac Weapons are an upgraded version of the original Item Level 90 Zodiac Weapons. Zenith Zodiac Weapons used to be called "Relic Weapon +1" (e.g. "Bravura +1") but the name was changed to "Relic Weapon Zenith" (e.g. "Bravura Zenith") in patch 2.1. Unlike all other upgrades, upgrading to a Zenith Relic Weapon is extremely easy and simply involves 3 Thavnairian Mists. When upgraded at the furnace near Gerolt, Zenith Zodiac Weapons get a faint coloured glow (colour varies depending on weapon) when unsheathed.

For detailed information about this step, see the above link.
Introduced in Patch 2.2, the Atma Zodiac Weapons (item level 100) are the third stage of the Zodiac Weapons. Jalzahn takes over from Gerolt as your new guide and weaponsmith. Your task for the quest Up in Arms is to grind FATEs in various zones of Eorzea for items known as Atmas, which drop randomly upon successful completion of a FATE. (The quest only needs to be completed once, for your first Atma Zodiac weapon; for each additional weapon you'll still need to acquire all Atmas, equip the Relic Weapon and talk to Jalzahn.) When upgraded, Atma Zodiac Weapons will no longer glow when unsheathed and will have a minor color change.

For detailed information about this step, see the above link.
Introduced in Patch 2.2, the Animus Zodiac Weapons (also item level 100) are the fourth of the Zodiac Weapons. Jalzahn wants you must recreate the valorous deeds of the Zodiac Braves, revered heroes in Thavnairian legend. This involves the quest Trials of the Braves and has you completing specific dungeons, FATEs and levequests and killing specific monsters from nine "Trials of the Braves" Books. When upgraded, Animus Zodiac Weapons will get a bright coloured glow (colour varies depending on weapon) when unsheathed.

For detailed information about this step, see the above link.
Introduced in Patch 2.28, the Novus Zodiac Weapons (item level 110) are the fifth stage of the Zodiac Weapons and is unique for allowing players to customize their weapon. Jalzahn believes that your weapon may yet grow stronger through the power of materia but that that conventional melding will not work due to the preclusive presence of soul energy. Hubairtin is able to overcome this in the Side Quest Celestial Radiance by converting the power of materia into a form of light energy. This leads you to the Side Quest Star Light, Star Bright where you are able to customize your weapon by melding 75 different materias with Alexandrite onto a Sphere Scroll. When upgraded, Novus Zodiac Weapons will glow bright yellow / gold when unsheathed.

Jalzahn believes that the unattuned state of soul energy in your weapon is holding back its full potential. This time Jalzahn teams up with Gerolt to guide on your next step. In the Side Quest Mmmmmm, Soulglazed Relics you must seal aethertight your weapon and attune its soul energy through normal use in dungeons, trials, FATEs, Treasure Hunts, Mysterious Maps, and PvP. When upgraded, Nexus Zodiac Weapons will glow bright white when unsheathed.
