Final Fantasy Resonance has 12 Legendary Arms, including weapons, armor, and accessories. After upgrading, they become some of the game’s strongest gear. That said, collecting all of them will also help you unlock the Legendary Arms trophy. The good thing I found about these collectibles is that none of the items are missable.
Meaning, everything can be grabbed while exploring the world, and even after you beat the game’s main story. In this guide, I will explain how you can get all the Legendary Weapons in Final Fantasy Resonance.
How to Get All Legendary Arms in Final Fantasy Resonance
Each Legendary Arm in Final Fantasy Resonance starts as a weak “Ancient” version. Find them first, and then return to the Chamber of Arms and interact with its glowing pedestal. This begins a two-phase Level 50 trial fight. Win, and the item will be upgraded into its full Legendary form.
I must warn you, the fights are tough; hence, it is smarter to come back later when your party is stronger. After you have all 12, you can optionally fight Level 75 versions for the “+” upgrades, but those aren’t required for the trophy.
Here’s the location of all the Ancient/Legendary Arms in Final Fantasy Resonance:

Getting Legendary Arms From Ancient Items in FF Resonance
You can unlock the process of unlocking the Legendary Arms in Chapter 5 of Final Fantasy Resonance once you get the airship. Fly to the Chamber of Arms, which is a small temple on the mountain island between Dirnado and Gronoa.
Once there, head inside, follow the corridor, and step through the portal to reach the chamber with all 12 crystallized pedestals. Once you interact with a pedestal, it will give you a location hint. That said, you don’t have to do this first, necessarily.
That is the complete process for collecting and obtaining the Legendary Arms from its Ancient version in Final Fantasy Resonance. Make sure to have upgraded gear for the trial battles and upgrade your Airship treasure radar to quickly find the required items in certain areas.
