All Ultimate Weapon Locations

Rusty WeaponLocation
SwordThis Rusty Weapon is the first you can obtain in Chained Echoes. You are required to complete the Main Quest ‘Searching for a Princess‘ which will unlock the Side Quest ‘Into the Maelstrom‘. This Quest is started via the bulletin board in Tormund. Upon completing Into the Maelstrom Quest, the Sword will be given to you.
SpearThis Rusty Weapon is found in the room of the Heroes of Leonar Statue upon completing the Rune Knight Leonar Challenge. This Temple is located on the east side of the Map, accessible via the Air Ship. There is 2 other Leonar Challenges to complete which reward the player with both a Rusty Weapon and a Class Emblem.
BowRewarded from completing the Side Quest ‘No Place for Happy Endings‘. But first, this needs to be unlocked. To do so, players must complete ‘Glenn’s Mind‘ Quest to unlock the Side Quest in Flandern. The Quest will guide you to Rockbottom, where players should enter the house on the right of both the Teleport Crystal and bridge. Completing this Quest will reward the player with the Rusty Weapon, Bow.
RapierThe Rapier can be found inside the Manor on the central Island of the Rohlan Fields Lake. To open the door however, you need to find the Manor Key at the Ruins north-west of the Region. The Rusty Weapon is located in a hard to find room of the second floor’s Manor. You need to follow the path all the way around the Manor, going east of the first floor, dropping back down to the ground floor. Then following the stairs that you could not access before you entering and room off camera (head south and hug the wall to enter the room on the left). From here, go north and you will find a room with tables and a chest. Inside the chest is the Rusty Rapier.
KatanaYou must complete the Side Quest ‘Two Winged Angel‘ in order to gain access to purchasing the Rusty Katana. However, players are required to first complete the Main Quest ‘Glenn’s Mind‘ which is Quest completed in the later portion of Chained Echoes. This will open up the ‘Two Winged Angel’ Questline in which players need to obtain the Balthasar Sky Armor. By doing so, Norgant will add the Rusty Weapon to his stock for purchase, allowing you to buy it off him at Kortara Mountain Range (Fort).
GunHead to Fiorwoods Camp where players must recruit Jack who is always seen chopping trees north of the Camp. Once the path is cleared, check the area north-west of here, past the chopped trees where the Rusty Weapon, Gun can be found inside a chest at the end of the passage.
GunspearThis Rusty Weapon is located on one of the small islands on the east hand side of Shambala. It is only accessible by using the Sky Armor. However, players are first required to deactivate the Ether Cannons located around Shambala to use the Sky Armor in the Region. The cannon to deactivate is located atop the Temple in the north of Shambala. You need to land on the north island to drop down on the larger island where the Gunspear is located into the sole chest on the land.

This Quest can be picked up at Wyrnshire Castle by talking to the Merchant on the north-east alley. Follow the objectives starting at Basil as shown on the Map for this Side Quests. After beating Fridolyn, visit him at the resort island via the Air Ship where you will get a Soul of Farnese. The Anchor can be found buried in the sand at the left of the spawn point.

Next, head to Raminas Tower to get to 1F using the Elevator. Head to 8F, partaking in some dungeon crawling. You will exit out of the Tower to Ograne Grottos. Head south-west, towards the Baalrut Tunnels and go south from its entrance. The Merchant is found here selling the Rusty Weapon under Key Items.
Royal CardsDefeat all 15 of the Unique Monsters and head to Adventurer’s Guild inside Tormund to claim your reward of the final Rusty Weapon, Royal Cards.

Upgrading the Rusty Weapons

As you find the Rusty Weapons, you can get this upgraded to their Ultimate variation. This is done by visiting the Flying Smithy and the Blacksmith, Vaehl. However, you need to also find the Souls of Farnese. There are a total of 12 to find, just like the Rusty Weapons. Each Soul is used to infuse with the Weapon, transforming it into the Ultimate Weapon. By transforming every Rusty Weapon, the player will unlock the ‘Blade Runner’ Achievement in Chained Echoes.
