FAQ: Zoadiac Weapons & You

[Chasely]

Technically yes and no. When you see the book list it will display 0 out of 1/2/3 accordingly. Meaning you can buy that particular book from 1, 2, or 3 times and upgrade that stat a total of 1, 2 or 3 times. So for example when you upgrade your main Stat, Str, Mnd, Int, Dex, you may notice you'll get 3 books total for it (not sure of the exact number). But until they update the quest in a later patch, you will not be able to go beyond the initial limit set out by the quest.

So sadly you won't be able to use all the books to boost your main stat 9 times. Hope that answers your question.

Yes. Thank you very much for your help

Q: So I finally finished every single book, whats next?

You have to go back to Jalzahn and do the "Relic Weapon Atma Enhancement". After a short cutscene (like with the original relic) you get a shiney Animus weapon. Paladin's shield counts as an Animus for the achievement, so you can get it after only 2 books. Album: http://imgur.com/a/7kSaa#0

Lol. Less than a week. And Yoshi thought hardly anyone would get it before the next patch.

Oh and the glow comes back lol. So many hate the glow.

so IF I glamoured my zenith weapon with a lightning event weapon ...Can I still get Atmas ?

I use a glamoured Zenith weapon and already got Atma drops with it, so: yes.

I had someone tell me that after the weapon/shield is upgraded to Animus that the ilvl is still 100. Truth?

Makes sense, seeing as how the initial ilvl boost added no upgrade to stats, and the books are effectively putting the stats on the weapon that should have been there. Just want to make sure though.

Really helpful post.

I don't have access to the game atm, so I can't check, however I can't help but wonder about certain details explained here.

The main one being about having the Zenith Weapon equipped. Is this stated explicitly in the Quest Dialogue (again, I can't check atm)? If not, is this just an assumption? Has anyone gotten one while not having the Zenith equipped? I understand, at this point it's a "better safe than sorry" kind of thing, but until full experiments/testing have been done I'm skeptical of things. One of the main reasons I would really consider this is the point you made about not needing the shield equipped on PLD. It could just be coincidence, I understand that, but would be curious to see more hard evidence.

Also, I have found no organized attempts at a true drop rate calculation and/or whether or not certain FATE's have better odds. At this point, for the above point and this one, all I've seen are speculation but no hard data.

Please don't take this the wrong way, you have definitely provided a lot of helpful information here and I don't mean to detract from that, however I believe these are some points we should confirm fully to debunk any myths out there.

For the first vit book on Curtana, one of the required leves was a GC leve out Mordhona. I ended up going through about 10 regular leves before realizing there was another leve guy there that had the Maelstrom GC leve I needed to do. He only had 2 other leves available. I did one, turned it in, and then the one I needed showed up.
