Introduced in the September 2022 Version Update, Prime Weapons promise power on the same level as existing REMA weapons. There are sixteen total weapons covering every job, and in their final forms they resemble palette-swapped Relic Weapons in appearance.

Stage One[]

Upon completing The Prime Weapons, speak to Oggbi in Port Bastok inside the Steaming Sheep restaurant for Key ItemUran-Mafran's orb. You can now purchase any stage one weapon from Gama-Shama in the Silver Knife for 10,000 gallimaufry. Weapons are delivered the next game day. Stage 1 weapons have the 'Slowly devours your soul' attribute, which ticks for -1 HP every 3 seconds while the weapon is equipped.

Stage Three[]

Players must complete all The Voracious Resurgence Missions. A brief chat with Gama-Shama reveals the materials required to upgrade to Stage Three:

  • 1,000,000 gallimaufry
  • 2 Octahedrites. These come from anything that could previously provide Eikondrite in Sortie, including chests and bosses on the first floor and basement.
  • 5 Voracious Psyches. To get these speak with Elijah who will ask you to complete all 15 Peculiar Foes Records of Eminence objectives. Upon completion return to him for your 5 psyches. This can be repeated every month.

Prime Aftermath[]

Weaponskills granted by Prime Weapons give Physical Damage Limit bonuses, an increase of the pDIF cap that benefits an attack-capped player's total damage against a target. The potency and duration of these bonuses vary with the expended TP. This Aftermath appears on Stage 3 and higher Prime Weapons, and early testing has produced these values.[1]

Prime Aftermath
TP Effect Potency Duration
1000 Physical Damage Limit +2% 60 seconds
2000 Physical Damage Limit +5% 120 seconds
3000 Physical Damage Limit +8% 180 seconds

The potency of the effect scales between the TP thresholds, e.g. you get more than +2% PDL at 1600 TP.
