7 UNNECESSARILY Hard Ultimate Weapons To Obtain

[@MMasterDE]

Wakka's wasn't difficult, at all... you can win matches like 8-0 or something, easy, over and over! Just gotta understand the game. The difficult one to get in FFX is by FAAAR Lulu's, because of the dodging 200 lightning stuff. Also, nothing hard about getting Quina's ultimate weapon, that one was just a matter of time. Excalibur II though... yeah, that was a matter of a different type of time. Couldn't even be gotten in a "perfect" run on PAL version. Also, as far as I remember, I thought Quisti's Save the Queen was the hardest to get in FF8.

[@MrBabercue]

My "favorite" (sarcasm very much intended) type of ultimate weapons to get in RPGs are the ones that require you to beat enemies so strong that by the time you earn the weapon you've long since moved past having any real use for it.

Reminds me of the materia you get from beating Ruby/Emerald weapon (Gold chocobo from Ruby, materia sets Emerald) where if you didn't raise your own chocobo by the time you beat the weapons there was nothing left worth fighting.

same other than the hours part(the one I probably spent the most time on was chocobo racing due to loving it and trying to hunt for the deathcast materia... never found it).

[@mikeclark7026]

Not at all. Lulu’s is terrible, but only cause of the pressure you put on yourself and because it takes so long. It’s actually very very easy to dodge 200 in a row, it’s just no fun to do. The butterfly and the Chocobo are EASILY the hardest 2. There is no cheesing or doing anything to help. You just play till you get lucky enough.

I honestly enjoyed getting Wakka's WC, the key was getting Tidus' ultimate move in blitzball and it was pretty much golden.

Same. Absolutely loved Blitzball. Absolutely grinded out my team with the best players in one of my playthroughs. I do not understand why it is so hated. Then again, lots of people nowadays get butthurt and rage against the universe, if the main character in a game farts in the wrong key.

The trick with the World Champion is to start a game of Blitzball everytime you start up the game. That has worked for me on both playthroughs at least. That way you spread out the time consuming element a bit. Of course I did dedicate some playtime to squeeze out a few matches back to back.

[@Kukakkau]

@@daviddalrymple2284 Best tips are 1 - use manual movement mode (the AI movement is awful). 2 - look up some of the good players to recruit to make it easy - the starting team is awful and should almost all be replaced. You can get the best keeper and mid fielder in Luca and Mihen Highroad inn along with several solid defenders in Luca. A good line up is Tidus, Wakka/Datto, Ropp, Kyou, Jassu and Jumal. These players are easy to get and will do great in low level which you'll be staying in with the next point. 3 - if the overdrive/sigil isn't available as a reward just reset the blitzball data to reroll it (you do lose your recruits though so need to get them again) Other than that it's just a maths game really and saving between games in case you lose or get put against the god tier Al Bhed team too early

In most Final Fantasy games, "Ultimate Weapon" basically useless since you get the weapon (mostly) in the end part of the game, where's nobody left to kill (except final boss) Or you get the ultimate weapon AFTER you beat the Superbossess, at that point, the ultimate weapon are the same as regular weapon, your character already have high level, using regular weapon also kill most random encounters enemies in single hit.

[@richardsinclair7661]

Triple Triad's rules are complicated?

[@phiefer3]

rng manipulation isn't even necessary to remove the annoying rules. Second, the ONLY card playing that's even applicable to getting Lionhard can be done in Balamb, where the only rule is Open, and lastly, that's not even necessary to get Lionheart that early (would be advised over the alternatives, admittedly). The video greatly exaggerates the need to "master" triple triad to get early lionheart.

[@Tony_409]

@@phiefer3 I know, but I am such as completionist that I used RNG to manipulate the rules of all the other areas just to collect every single card.

[@shadowfate05]

@@richardsinclair7661 The base rules no, but regions have their own extra rules. The Lunar region for example starts with all the extra rules, that is: Open (see your opponent's hand), Sudden Death (draws restart the game using the cards you control on the board as your starting hand), Random, Same/Plus/Same Wall, and Elemental. Random being the worst because it just takes 5 of your cards by random instead of letting you pick them. Same means if you place a card that matches multiple cards at once (8 touching 8, 2 touching 2), and at least one card is an opponent's card, the ones controlled by your opponent flip. Same Wall extends Same by counting the edge as A. Plus is similar but instead of matching numbers, you want the sum of the different touching sides to be the same (8 touching 2 and 6 touching 4). Same/Plus/Same Wall carry an additional hidden Combo rule that treats the cards flipped by that rule as if you just played them, but does not trigger Same/Plus/Same Wall. Elemental places little elemental symbols on the board, and if a card placed on it matches the element, it gets +1, otherwise it gets -1. These modifications do NOT apply to Same or Plus. People use RNG manipulation because you can mix the rules of different regions, and cause the annoying rules to be abolished because it's generally easiest to play when you can see your opponent's hand and the only rule for capturing is just "Bigger number better".

For the Blitzball mini-game, you can select "reset data" to change all players back to level 1 and create a new tournament/prizes. This makes it very easy to keep resetting until you get the prize you want. Then just save after every win and reload if you lose too many games. You can get every prize needed for Wakka's ultimate weapon in like 20-30 games or so.

[@veteran0121]

Yep.. It's crazy how many people don't know this trick.

[@AtomicArtumas]

So, I'll note, I'm like 90% certain that reset data is only in the remasters. Because it was a very very big thing to have to wait until super lategame to be able to start playing blitzball because certain characters *cough*wakka*cough* only join your team SUPER late-game, and are forced at level 1, while the rest of the players level up depending on how many matches you've played. So if you don't wait until those characters are available, you basically just straight up miss out on some of the best players you can get for your team because they're essentially a level 1 going against practically max level characters, which means that regardless of how god-tier their stats are, they just don't stand a chance.

[@keytostart7053]

@@AtomicArtumas No, you can recruit wakka imediately and you could always reset data. but yes you should wait until the airship to blitzball because thats the first time its possible to freely travel around and recruit players. But realistically, with the data reset trick mentioned above, you only need to recruit "Brother" who is the guy piloting the Airship. His stats combined with tidus jecht shot should make the first season like shooting fish in a barrel. Then you just reset data and do it again. This way, none of the opposition players level up enough to challenge you.

[@joshuatayloe8616]

Yes, I personally think this is the hardest weapon to obtain in the original release and as it doesn't require a license it's truly an ultimate weapon. Due to the hunts needed to complete it's not feasible until the end game without considerable grinding early also to truly use it you have to steal the Genji equipment from Gilgamesh during his hunt.

Blitzball remains the worst thing I've ever encountered in FF this side of "Draw".

[@vc180191]

Maybe just because I enjoyed the side-game, but I didn't find World Champion to be too difficult or long compared to others in FF10. Maybe it's because you are unlocking other abilities for Wakka as you go so it's not like the whole grind is just for his weapon, but it seemed way more easier than Caledbolg's Sun Sigil which is ultra RNG at it's finest (those f!n birds!). Onion Knight's Venus Sigil was also an absolute royal pain, slip in attention for even a second during the over an hour of lightning dodges and you are screwed. Bonus points against the poor saps who forgot to or missed picking up the Moon Crest though, that's a Dark Aeon in your path if you didn't pick it up before you left Besaid.

[@nathanielbass771]

heck, i'd argue the chocobo game is harder because it's entirely RNG based in a minigame that already takes a lot of skill, "oooh, sorry, you're 10 seconds off because you dodged a fast enemy charging at you" "ooh, sorry, you're off by 3 seconds because you don't have an ideal path" I don't think I ever got that one...

I remember finding a work-around to get the Jupiter Sigil, not so much a work-around as more of a pseudo-exploit. The AI for Blitzball wasn't very intuitive, so by scoring a single goal and then passing the ball to a sideline team member and just not moving, the AI wouldn't try to steal the ball, instead it would just wander around the center of the arena. This became much easier and consistent to do if you leveled Tidus a bit to perform the Jecht shot on demand, even more so if you managed to score the Jecht shot 2 from a tournament. One goal and you could simply wait out the timer; made this mini-game much more tolerable for me, as the constant huddle timer stop was annoying af. Still, this was less painful than dodging the 100 lightning bolts for Lulu's onion knight. Cheers!

The only ultimate weapon I've never gotten in 9 is the Excalibur II. To get it, you need to reach a spot in the final area of the game in under 12 hours. You basically have to speedrun the game, which makes you power level your characters while missing quite a few side quests along the way. I'm not much of a speedrunner, so I'm sure this is easy for some players. Now I'm not sure if this was changed for the Steam port of the game, but on the PS1, you could wait for the in-game clock to reset at 00:00:00, but I remember the time requirement being ludicrous (at least a year, or something like that).

I'm surprised the Zodiac Spear from the original FF12 wasn't mentioned. Iirc it has the best damage in the game for raw numbers, and to obtain it you have to purposely avoid opening certain chests in the early game which you have no way of knowing outside of a guide, only to later find the weapon in an optional mid-game area. That to this is one of if not the worst implementation of a weapon in an RPG because it punishes you for doing a core gameplay mechanic: Exploring and treasure looting.

Let's throw in here a minigame that no one ever mentions: cactaur hunting in FFX given how it is required for Rikku's ultimate weapon.

[@S3Cs4uN8]

Personally I found the Anima weapon grind to be the easiest of the bunch, especially since the bulk of the actual grinding is frontloaded into your first weapon and doesn't need to be repeated on any others you choose to make. The Resistance ones are on the 'easy' side of the relic weapon grind but owing to their completion being tied to the Resistance Frontline stuff how easy or hard it is largely depends on how active that activity is when you're doing it. The Hardest ones are easily the Zodiac weapons from ARR, those are just a tedious grind from start to finish.

World Champion was never hard for me to obtain since as a sports fan, I loved Blitzball. As soon as I was able to, I immediately began playing. Once I had access to the Airship, it made recruitment that much easier; reset the League and grab free agents. I watched the Resistance Weapon grinds live with my FC's former leader. I knew it was a challenge and a half and by the time I reached that point of the game, Endwalker was closing in, so I didn't bother going too far. I'm hoping the Manderville Weapons don't include some insane grinds, but knowing Yoshi-P and co, there's going to be something we're going to have to do just to obtain their best levels by 6.5.

Wondering why FFXI's weapons didn't make a showing here at all. A couple versions of their endgame weapons were exceptionally grindy to get.

Because saving and reloading isn't difficult, most of it is joke to do if you use that well.

[@Kitkat5335]

@Dragoonsoul7878 Not sure we are talking about the same game here. FFXI was the first mmorpg in final fantasy universe. Can save and reload. The initial relic weapons required getting a base weapon drop, several crafted weapons, and currency from an instance just for the first few stages. The currency only dropped in instance zone and usually didn't get much of it each run. By the last three stages of the weapon you needed a drop that wasn't 100% from one NM, then in another zone needed to zero the last two NM with alliances and hope one didn't get bored and leave, and the other didn't just flat out wipe you. Other weapons of similar length of time came out as the game went on that were just as difficult until 2010 onward. Usually took months to do and help of numerous people to accomplish one weapon. Ffxiv in comparison is much easier to complete weapons on in the similar vein.

[@habbidasher6937]

The early resistance weapons from ff14 aren't hard to get, just time consuming because you had to complete the right content to make them accessible. The content itself wasn't hard. Even the first upgraded version (the dyable one) was just another time consuming chore in farming 20 each of those 3 different memories of the dying. Grinding out 60 fates in the correct locations just took a long time but wasn't hard. After that, if you want to keep upgrading them to different levels, it gets to be a REAL grind. But not necessarily difficult.

[@zachriel137]

[@Soloong_Gaybowzer]

The all time hardest to get is the Sword of Gades from Gordovan West Tower in Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals. It's a boss battle that's so near impossible to beat, you're not even meant to beat the boss but instead be saved by Gades getting bored and just leaving. If you do however manage to beat Gades, you get this massive sword which is the most powerful weapon in the game short of end game weaponry due to it's "Octo-Strike" ability allowing you to attack 8 times in a row without pausing or waiting for another turn. I've seen players deal 3500HP in damage in only 1 turn.

I really disagree with FFXII. The absolute hardest weapon in that game to get is the Seitengrat. It is in an invisible chest that only spawns 1% of the time. And when you open it has a 1 in 10,000 chance of containing the weapon. Otherwise, it contains a knot of rust. It's a ridiculously hard weapon to obtain with basically 0% chance you would ever find it on your own. And even when you're told about it, the chances of actually getting it are still slim to none.

[@xxcagedriotxx]

That's not "hard" necessarily. It's a random lottery that involves no skill from the player.

[@SorasShadow1]

it's also worth pointing out that the ff14 Resistance Weapons are only going to get more frustrating and difficult to complete as time goes on because that content is sequestered away from the rest of the game. It's not dead, it's still a good way to level up, but the raids themselves aren't going to reliably clear with 12 people in an instance and 7 of them completely uninterested. Finding groups for any of the 3 raids basically requires a discord server, partly because even with all the nerfs they do require a decent bit of skill on the part of players. Basically, if you didn't do it pre-Endwalker, go find a discord invite and be willing to Data Center travel for it. And for the love of god learn what essences are and how to use them.

[@ozridbales3613]

I believe you missed the most difficult ones. Any Relic weapon in old FFXI online. You had to collect currency from a special zone called Dynamis. You could only enter once every real life week and you needed 17 other players to go in with you, so you better hope that your key healer or tank doesn't die or disconnect or have to leave while you're inside otherwise that's a week wasted. On top of that, it required millions of gil and thousands in currency to upgrade the weapon and you would get maybe 1-2 per monster kill. This was when Dynamis was the hardest thing in the game to do. The first NA player to get one said it cost him over 1 billion gil and took a year and a half of playing to make one weapon.

You should do one of these on ultimate Limit Breaks. Particularly, Quistis from FFVIII and her ultimate Shockwave Pulsar. Blue Mages always are difficult to get the best abilities for, but this one is on another level. What quistis needs to consume to learn Shockwave Pulsar is the item Dark Matter, which has several steps to obtain. Firstly you need tool refine skill which is only available for Siren, a completely missable Guardian Force if you don't have anyone junctioned to Draw at certain fights. Then you need 100 curse spikes, which are a grueling grind to get from powerful monsters that spray status effects at the party.... Or Triple Triad. And it was worse if you were trying for it on the Playstation instead of the PC remaster, as then you also need Siren to be level 100. The reward is the only move Quistis has to break damage cap, though.

But if we're talking about relic weapons, certainly the ARR zodiac weapons. The book step alone with hunting logs and fates takes several hours, and unlike resistance weapons, it doesn't get easier for the 2nd, 3rd or x amount of weps you want to get afterwards. It's just as painful the 2nd time. It's also worth noting the stats pretty much are irrelevant so it's straight up just for glamour purposes.

World Champion was for me by far the easiest weapon to obtain. I do enjoy Blitzball, especially when you understand that the experience gained is by passing to other players. So what I would do was continously pass the whole match, getting ALOT (and I mean ALOT) of experience more experience than the other teams. You can start this process even at the first Tournament and thus winning it. Score at while nearing the end of the match with the Jecht Shot and you have an easy win (keep in mind travel time of the ball). You could have an as high team as the best player of the Luca Goers. While Tidus is a good Blitzballer early game, there are alot better ones available.
