How to Craft Gotterdammerung in Final Fantasy XVI
Final Fantasy XVI has a selection of weapons for Clive to equip, but if you want the best of the best you’re looking for Gotterdammerung. This lengthily-named blade is Clive’s best weapon in the entire game, but it requires a bit of work to both unlock its recipe, and then find the proper materials. Luckily, we’re here to help you figure all that out.
How to Unlock Gotterdammerung Recipe
The recipe for Gotterdammerung is locked behind a series of quests called “Blacksmith’s Blues.” All four of these quests are fairly straightforward, and the first will unlock shortly after the second time skip, when you’re in the second Hideaway. A Cursebreaker named August will help start each quest, and the whole series revolves around the blacksmithh Blackthorne.
The second Blacksmith’s Blues can be started by reading a missive, while the third and fourth will, once again, be started by talking to August. Once you’ve done the fourth quest in the series, roughly 70 percent through the game, you’ll unlock the Ragnarok weapon, on top of the crafting recipe for Gotterdammerung.

How to Get the Materials For Gotterdammerung
Gotterdammergun requires a handful of rare materials, including the Ragnarok sword, three Orichalcum, two Darksteel, and a Primitive Battlehorn. All of these materials are earned through some late-game activities. You’ll already have Ragnarok from Blacksmith’s Blues, but here’s how to get the others.
As you can see it’s a bit of work, but crafting Gotterdammerung is more than worth it inFinal Fantasy XVI. If you need any other help and tips, verify to check out our guides forhow to parryandhow to upgrade potions.
