Clive has access to plenty of powerful weapons in Final Fantasy 16, from the hard-to-pronounce Gotterdammerung to the deity-infused Ultima Weapon. Unsurprisingly, perhaps, the Echoes of the Fallen DLC expansion adds a few additional blades to the young Archduke's arsenal, one of which is called Omega Weapon. It's the most powerful weapon in the game and is needed to unlock the "My Reward Is with Me" Trophy.

How to Get Cloud's Buster Sword in Final Fantasy 16 (FF16 DLC)

Cloud Strife's oversized blade is one of the most iconic weapons in gaming. Now, players can get the Buster Sword for Clive in Final Fantasy 16.

Named after both a recurring enemy and a legendary blade that has etched its name into the franchise's rich and varied history, Final Fantasy 16 players will be able to obtain the Omega Weapon toward the end of The Echoes of the Fallen DLC. However, before they can do so, they'll first need to get their hands on three expansion-exclusive crafting materials and one of the other DLC weapons.

How to Get the Omega Weapon in Echoes of the Fallen

In order to craft Omega Weapon players will need four things: the Fallen Enforcer, an Omega Nodule, a Living Tissue, and an Aqueous Humours. The good news is that none of these things are missable, meaning that players are guaranteed to have acquired them by the time they reach the end of the Echoes of the Fallen expansion. They'll get the Fallen Enforcer for defeating the Sigma mini-boss and the Omega Nodule for beating the DLC's final boss, Omega Aionios. As for Living Tissue and Aqueous Humours, three of each can be acquired by defeating the Sigma and Angra Mainyu mini-bosses respectively.

While playing through the expansion on Final Fantasy Mode , players will be able to craft the Omega Weapon Reforged rather than the regular Omega Weapon. Doing so requires the Fallen Enforcer Reforged, a Flawless Nodule, a Flawless Tissue, and a Flawless Humours; all of which are obtained in exactly the same way as their non-flawless counterparts. The process for crafting the weapon also remains unchanged.

Crafting the Omega Weapon in Final Fantasy 16

Players will automatically be returned to the hideaway after defeating Omega Aionios, at which point, they'll be ready to craft the Omega Weapon. To do so, they'll simply need to head to the Black Hammer, select Omega Weapon (or Omega Weapon Reforged) from the "Craft" menu, and then hold down the X button. The Omega Weapon has Attack and Stagger stats of 410, making it the best weapon in Final Fantasy 16 outside of Final Fantasy Mode. The Omega Weapon Reforged has Attack and Stagger stats of 700, making it identical to the Ultima Weapon in all but appearance.
