As well as Echoes of the Fallen, Final Fantasy 16‘S The coming flood DLC Clive adds some new equipment. These include the Tonberry Knife, which uniquely deals low HP damage in exchange for high Will damage. Whether you want this blade for its stats or its glamour, there’s one required crafting material that’s incredibly easy to overlook: Fool’s Gold.
How to get Fool’s Gold in Final Fantasy 16
Contrary to what you might initially think, Fool’s Gold is not dropped by common enemies. The first of the two pieces you need for the Tonberry Knife actually comes from the dungeon “The Aire of Hours,” which you need to complete for the main story of the DLC. Fittingly, it’s a reward for defeating the first boss: Master Tonberry. If you’re reading this, you probably already have this first piece in your inventory. It’s easy to gloss over this when you first see the results screen of this fight!
The second piece of Fool’s Gold you need is in the Father’s Fell area of Mysidia. You can find this southeast of the Riversmeet fast travel location. Take the lower of the two paths leading to Tailwind Bay and look at the north side of this area. Here you will find a treasure chest containing the required piece of Fool’s Gold. You can find the exact location on the map above.
This chest stores surprisingly well, so keep your eyes peeled to find it.
If you’re missing the other materials to craft the Tonberry Knife, just keep completing side quests in Mysidia. You will come across the hunting targets that drop this Notched tenon And Aqueous membrane items, and you even get additional pieces of them Orichalcum to. The only way you’ll be short of materials after this is if you end up using those materials to craft base game gear. In this extremely specific case, simply return to the main game and aim for 100% completion to get these items again.
Whether you want to use it or just have it for your collection, enjoy your brand new weapon!
