Lightning FATE weapons

[KizunaBlade]

You get the quest then go do the FATE. The FATE that had Lightning may not spawn Lightning again the next time around.

Upon getting gold you get 2 Parcels, this works like the Bomb Ash meaning you never need to even get the quest.
To turn in the quest you need to give 1 Parcel away, and next to the quest giver is an NPC that sells each of the weapons for 1 parcel.

You can then go back and farm more parcels and get each weapon for every class.

You do not need to do the level 45+ quests on a MNK to get the MNK weapon, for example.

The quests are for the armor that you get, which can be worn by any class. So as long as you have one class over level 45, you'll be fine.

I am a fairly new player and have no classes at 45+. Does that mean that I can only get the weapons/hair and nothing else? Am I doomed?

It means you wont be able to get the following pieces of Lightning or Snow's outfit. For the level 15 one we have gloves so far. (Weapons are already accessible and will most likely be acquirable throughout the other ones as well.)

So yes you will miss out on everything else unless you begin leveling, however as stated on the news page which most people don't seem to read;

* This event is scheduled to make a return in February 2014 for the North American and European release of Lightning Returns: FINAL FANTASY XIII.

People in game keep shouting "WERE I GET QUEST I CANT FIND"... I can understand not knowing where the FATE is but blah!

So yeah you'll miss this time around but you have until February to get to 45+
