This is a simple record of how to make Phantom Weapons (PW).

Finally, the new weapon strengthening content has begun! This time it seems like it will be quite challenging, so I’m excited about it♪
If it’s too easy, like the Manderville Weapon, Norirow-san will start playing it without sleeping, so it’s better to make it a little more difficult…

So, here is a quick summary of how to make a new “Phantom Weapon (PW)”!
Prerequisite Quest
Since you will basically be creating this in “The Occult Crescent”, you will need to unlock The Occult Crescent.
A quest will occur once you complete DAWNTRAIL.
- One Last Hurrah(Tuliyollal)
- The Phantom Village
How to make the first form “Penumbrae”
You need two things.
- ① Collect 3 of each of the 6 types of “xx Demiatma”
- ② Arcanite x 3(Allagan Tomestone of Heliometry 1,500 pieces)※This is all you need from the second one onwards

Wow, it’s an Atma! It reminds me of the Zodiac Weapon💦
What’s quite difficult this time is collecting nostalgic atma.
There are two ways to collect them: within The Occult Crescent, or in F.A.T.E.s in the DAWNTRAIL area.
How to farm in The Occult Crescent
It can be obtained through critical encounters (CE) or FATEs in “Occult Crescent: South Horn“.
Each of the six types can be obtained, roughly speaking, in the areas listed below.

but……
From my own experience, it is difficult to control the occurrence of “Critical Encounters (CE) ” and “F.A.T.E.”, so even if you know the above areas, it may be quite a difficult task to target and collect specific types.
As you progress through the story of The Occult Crescent and raise your knowledge level to level 20, you will naturally collect a fair amount of them. It might be more efficient to collect what you are missing in the end by doing FATEs in the DAWNTRAIL area.
How to collect in FATEs in the DAWNTRAIL area
Since the types of Demiatmas that can be obtained in each area are fixed, it’s easy to target and collect what you are missing.
Types of Demiatma | FATEs Area |
---|---|
Azurite Demiatma | Urqopacha |
Verdigris Demiatma | Kozama’uka |
Malachite Demiatma | Yak T’el |
Realgar Demiatma | Shaaloani |
Caput Mortuum Demiatma | Heritage Found |
Orpiment Demiatma | Living Memory |

The drop rate for Demiatma is quite low, but you can collect a fair amount by completing The Occult Crescent’s story and leveling up, so it might be recommended to start by collecting them within The Occult Crescent!
Once you have collected the Demi Atma, all you need is 1,500 Allagan Tomestones of Heliometry. (You don’t need to collect Demi Atma from the second one onwards.)
Allagan Tomestones of Heliometry can also be found within The Occult Crescent, and various roulettes and mob hunting tours are also recommended.
So that concludes the first stage of making a phantom weapon!
This time, the difficulty level isn’t too easy, but just right so that we can feel a sense of accomplishment.


Yes, yes, The Occult Crescent is full of nature and is very beautiful, so it was fun to spend time there and it felt like we were able to make it in a flash♪

Various phantom weapon first forms
♦♦♦
By the way, speaking from my own experience, by the time my knowledge level reached 20, I had collected 5 Realgar, 4 Azurite, 2 Malachite, 2 Caput Mortuum, and 2 Orpiment (I only had 0 Verdigris, so maybe that’s a bit biased?). So I collected the rest in F.A.T.E. in the DAWNTRAIL area.
