Pre-Requisite

Before begin to create your Relic Weapon, you must:

Complete Main Scenario Quests: Heavensward
Reach level 60 for your chosen job.

An Unexpected Proposal

Starting NPC:	Rowena
Starting Location:	Idyllshire, Idyllshire (x5,y5)
Your journey begins with "An Unexpected Proposal" quest. This is a one time quest and does not need to be repeated; further weapons will start from Soul Without Life. For this quest, simply: Speak to Rowena (x5,y5) in Idyllshire. Travel to Alpha Quadrant in Azys Lla to speak with Ardashir (x7,y11).

The following 3 quests need to be completed in order, for each relic, and are job-specific. However, you can work on multiple relics at one time. An example is picking up Soul Without Life on your PLD, whilst working on Coming into Its Own for your WAR.

Soul Without Life

Starting NPC:

Ardashir

Starting Location:

Alpha Quadrant, Azys Lla (x7,y11)

Speak to Ardashir (x7,y11) in Azys Lla.
Travel to Mor Dhona to speak with Syndony (x22,y5). She will give you two options to receive the Astral Nodule and Umbral Nodule.
1. Give up a Zodiac Zeta Weapon. Speak to Syndony again and she will allow you to turn one zeta weapon of any type (except PLD, where both sword and shield are required) for both the Astral Nodule and the Umbral Nodule. You will lose your Zodiac Zeta Weapon.
  NOTE: If you are trading in your relic, make sure to finish The Vital Title quest from Jalzahn before you do. This is the quest you complete for the Home of the Brave achievement.
2. Farm fates in Heavensward zones for Crystals to turn in to her for Nodules:
  - Collect Luminous Wind Crystal, Luminous Fire Crystal, Luminous Lightning Crystal and turn into Syndony for a Astral Nodule
  - Collect Luminous Ice Crystal, Luminous Earth Crystals, Luminous Water Crystal and turn into Syndony for a Umbral Nodule
Travel to Alpha Quadrant in Azys Lla to speak with Ardashir (x7,y11).

Zone	Luminous Crystal
The Sea of Clouds	Luminous Wind Crystal
Azys Lla	Luminous Fire Crystal
The Churning Mists	Luminous Lightning Crystal
Coerthas Western Highlands	Luminous Ice Crystal
The Dravanian Forelands	Luminous Earth Crystal
The Dravanian Hinterlands	Luminous Water Crystal

Notes:

Luminous Crystals can drop from any FATE in that zone, but you must complete them with a Gold Rating. It is completely random: you may get 3 Luminous Crystals in the space of an hour or just 1 Luminous Crystal after three days.
- Before Patch 3.57, the drop rate appeared to be approximately 20%. The patch, however, buffed it even higher than that.
- Being in a party or having your Chocobo out has no direct effect on the drop rate. However, being able to complete FATEs faster has obvious benefits.
The only mandatory requirement is that you must have an active "Soul Without Life" quest in order for Luminous Crystals to appear. You can choose to be on any job or use any weapon you like.
- This is a good opportunity for you to train your Chocobo or another job if you wish, and also to collect the Grand Company Seals used to acquire items for the Coming into Its Own phase of the Anima Weapon arc.
When Luminous Crystals do drop, you will be alerted in-game by a popup.
The Luminous Crystals go into your normal inventory rather than your Key Item inventory. Make sure you have free space in your inventory.
You do not need to stay for the entire length of the FATE, but only successfully completed FATEs with at least a Gold Rating will drop Luminous Crystals.
Use of the Party Finder is recommended to quickly group with other players.
A Chocobo Companion can be used to make the battle easier.

Travel to Alpha Quadrant in Azys Lla to speak with Gerolt (x7,y11) with Enchanted Rubber, Fast-drying Carboncoat, Divine Water, Fast-acting Allagan Catalyst and Weapon Awoken in inventory (quest is job-specific so you will need another weapon for the same job equipped).

Notes:

As with the Soul Without Life phase, most of this phase can be completed as any class or job. Whilst relatively slow, completing Vanu Vanu and Vath Beast Tribe Quests is a reliable way to bring in 1 token per day (slightly more if starting from minimum rank, due to bonus jobs from rank up) along with XP for any Lv50-59 class/job, or Tomestones of Poetics (from Vanu Vanu) for Lv60 classes/jobs.
All of the tokens required (whether Unidentifiable Objects, or crafted/company seal items) can be acquired before this quest is actually available, though Cristiana will not appear until this quest has been started. Stockpiled Tomestones of Poetics are also useful. Running FATEs for the elemental crystals will generate a lot of company seals unless you are extremely lucky.

Reward:

1512 gil, Anima Weapon
