Phantom Weapons (Dawntrail)

Lore

Harried by circumstances financial and otherwise, Eorzea's finest weaponsmith finds himself on a treacherous journey bound for seas unknown. Yet amidst the peril is an opportunity to achieve a new pinnacle of weapon fabrication, harnessing arcane powers as potent as they are illusory...

Patch 7.2 Official Site

Prerequisites

To start the quest chains for this set of relic weapons, there's some requirements that must be met beforehand:

• The level needed to complete this chain is level 100 on a Disciple of War or Magic
• Completion of the Main Scenario Quest Dawntrail

This relic is connected with a field operation, much like Eureka and Bozja relics before it.
As such, to start the relic quests you will need to start the quests to get access to the Occult crescent.

Keep in mind that the information below will be subject to updates as we progress through the tiers of weapon.

For now, this information reflects what is currently out in 7.25 patch and will be continually updated as more parts release.

1 - Arcane Artistry

Lydirceil is on the hunt for a missing weaponsmith.

- In-game description

This relic starts by talking to Lydirceil in the Phantom Village (x:6.6 y:7.1).

After you're done finding our favourite drunk smith, you're on your way to the first steps.

Do you remember Atma?
Does it make you cry?
Well it's not atma this time, say hi to...

Demiatma

This first quest will have you collecting Demiatma.
As Gerolt put it...

Sometimes a foul beastie in the throes o' death'll leave behind a crystallized chunk o' their life essence.

These items are rare drops that can be obtained in two ways - either inside the Occult Crescent's South Horn, or through FATEs in other regions.

To complete the quest you will have to gather 3 Demiatma from 6 different types, for a total of 18 drops.
You will inevitably end up with more than the 3 required as you venture within the Occult Crescent but any extras you get as you grind, can be trashed at the end after you complete the quest.

While the devs might adjust this in the future; right now the drop rates for Demiatma are:

• Critical Encounters: 20%
• FATEs (in Occult crescent & outside): 5%

The Demiatma grind is a one-time step to enhance Gerolt's tools so do not despair;  grab any rum that Gerolt hasn't yet put his hands on and let's go!

Within the Occult Crescent

Complete FATEs & Critical Encounters with a gold rank within each of the marked zones, for a chance to receive the corresponding Demiatma.

Out in the world

Demiatma		Zone
Azurite Demiatma		Urqopacha
Caput Mortuum Demiatma		Heritage Found
Malachite Demiatma		Yak T'el
Orpiment Demiatma		Living Memory
Realgar Demiatma		Shaaloani
Verdigris Demiatma		Kozama'uka

2 - Forging the Phantasmal

Lydirceil is eager for Gerolt to bring his plans to fruition.

-In-game description

Thankfully that's done!

Now you want relics right?.. Right?! 

This quest is a repeatable one, you can do it as many times as you want for all the relics you need.

All you have to do is purchase 3 Arcanite sold by Ermina (x:6.9 y:7.3) for 500 Allagan Tomestones of Heliometry each.

This will cost you 1500 tomes total, for each relic.

Arcanite	Location	Each
	Ermina @ Phantom Village (7, 7)	500
