Adamantite is a crucial item in Final Fantasy Resonance, primarily used for crafting some of the game's most potent weapons. While the game does not explicitly detail its usage, players can exchange these rare materials with a skilled weaponsmith to acquire formidable equipment for their party members. This guide outlines the locations where Adamantite can be found and how to utilize it effectively.
Utilizing Adamantite for Powerful Gear
Adamantite serves as the key ingredient for forging the second-best weapons available for most characters in Final Fantasy Resonance. To obtain these weapons, players must trade the Adamantite to Aileen, a character who can be recruited during the game. If Aileen has not yet joined your party, she can be recruited by completing the side quest "Forger of Wills," which becomes available in Dilmagia starting from Chapter 5. Upon her recruitment, players can find her on the deck of their airship. Beginning in Chapter 6, Aileen will offer to craft a powerful weapon for a chosen character upon interaction.
The specific weapons crafted from Adamantite for each character are as follows:
| Character | Weapon | Weapon Effect | | :-- | :-- | :-- | | Rain | Save the Vermillion | 179 physical attack, 93 magic attack. Reduces damage taken from physical and magic attacks by 20%. | | Lasswell | Shisui | 197 physical attack, 148 magic attack. Grants Hone Senses and Placidity for 5 turns at the start of battle. | | Fina | Elysium | 114 physical attack, 162 magic attack, 141 sanctity. Increases potency of healing magic by 20%. | | Lid | Mechabo Hammer Super | 142 physical attack, 133 magic attack. Grants Overclock and allows the wielder to act first at the start of battle. | | Nichol | Codex Providentiae | 106 physical attack, 181 magic attack, 169 sanctity. Grants Tactic: Fluid Warfare for 3 turns and allows the wielder to act first at the start of battle. | | Jake | Caelum Renatum | 222 physical attack, 88 magic attack. Raises lucky level by 8 at the start of battle. Restores 2% of max MP upon dealing damage with a standard attack. | | Sakura | Roselia | 154 physical attack, 204 magic attack. Grants Concentrate for 3 turns and Sage's Eye for 4 turns at the start of battle. | | Archwitch Fina | Abyss | 130 physical attack, 178 magic attack. Increases the duration of debuffs and status ailments inflicted by the wielder by 2 turns. |
It is advisable to prioritize obtaining weapons for your most frequently used party members, as Adamantite can become scarce in later stages of the game. While even more powerful weapons exist through optional content, the Adamantite-forged gear is sufficient for completing the main story.
Locating Adamantite
