Final Fantasy X / X-2 - How to Obtain Auron’s Masamune

Auron’s Masamune

Masamune is Auron’s strongest weapon, boasting exceptional abilities that maximize Auron’s role as a physical damage dealer. The weapon is obtained at Mushroom Rock Road.

To get Masamune, head to the Calm Lands and take the north exit toward the Cavern of the Stolen Fayth. When you arrive at the cave’s entrance, follow the trail that stretches to the right. Continue following the path until you come to a large ruin of stone with a soldier practicing near the edge. Approach the Rusty Sword to obtain it.

After getting the rusty sword, proceed to Djose Highroad. Head west to some stacked crates behind a man to get to the upper area. From there, head to the south exit.

In the next area, continue following the path going south. Make a right on the passage that appears to lead to a circular area to find a lift. Use the lift to find Lord Mi’ihen’s statue in the upper area. Put the Rusty Sword in the statue to activate a glyph. Use the Celestial Mirror on the glyph to get the Masamune.

Celestial Mirror Guide

The weapon in its base form will be of little use since it only has the No AP ability. You will need the Mars Crest and Mars Sigil to bring out its full potential.

Mars Crest

The Mars Crest is obtained by riding a Chocobo at Mi’ihen Highroad. From Rin’ Travel Agency, follow the path leading to the gate of Mushroom Rock. Make a detour by going southeast to a path that leads to a dead end where a chest containing the Mars Crest can be found.

Mars Sigil

The Mars Sigil is given as a reward for completing 10 challenges in the Area Conquests or Species Conquests at the Monster Arena. The total number of challenges can be a combination of any of the two types, so long as they add up to 10.

The Area Conquest challenges can be accessed by capturing one of every fiend in the Calm Lands. The Species Conquest is unlocked by capturing one of every monster species in the area.

Masamune Abilities

Return to the shining path at Lake Macalania and offer the Mars Crest and Mars Sigil to enhance Masamune. Below are the abilities the weapon will have for each of its versions.
