Manderville weapons are special weapons distinguished by their striking black color and white accents, and each one has its own unique abilities that can be used to your advantage in various battles. It is said that these weapons were created by the legendary blacksmith, Manderville, and can only be found in certain areas of Eorzea.
How to Get Manderville Weapons
The first step to unlocking the Manderville weapons is obtaining the items required for their creation: Manderville fragments and Allagan tomestones. Manderville fragments are a rare drop from enemies around Eorzea, while Allagan tomestones can be earned by completing various dungeons and FATEs. The amount of both items needed to make the weapons will depend on which weapon you are trying to craft.
Once you have all the materials required for crafting the weapon, you’ll need to find an NPC in one of three locations who can craft it for you: Ul’dah, Gridania, or Limsa Lominsa. The NPC will have a specific name and can be easily identified if you know where to look.
Then, you’ll need to purchase the Manderville weapon of your choice, whether it’s the Manderville torquetum, harp bow, rod, spear, or others, from the vendor for a set amount of gil. The cost will depend on which weapon you choose, but it should be relatively affordable.
Finally, once you have purchased the weapon, simply equip it and start using it in combat. Keep in mind that some weapons may require further upgrading before they can reach their full potential.
