Godhand

Godhand is a Celestial Weapon, and it is the most powerful weapon for Rikku in the game.

You must obtain the Celestial Mirror before you can obtain or create any of the Celestial Weapons. Use the link below for more information on how to obtain the Celestial Mirror:

To create the fully powered-up Godhand, you will need to obtain the Godhand weapon itself first, then use the Mercury Crest and the Mercury Sigil to power it up.

Obtaining Godhand

Enter the GODHAND Al Bhed Password into the Airship map screen. Check out the Airship Passwords and Hidden Coordinates section for more information on the different secret areas that you can access through the map.

Entering GODHAND will give you access to Mushroom Rock as one of the locations in the list. Travel there and follow the pathway along until you reach the treasure chest.

You can only open this treasure chest if you have the Celestial Mirror in your inventory. It contains Godhand, which has some pretty terrible stats to start with. Time to obtain the crest and sigil!

Mercury Crest

You can find the Mercury Crest in “Sanubia Desert - West” on Bikanel Island. Use the menu screen to make sure you are in the correct area of the desert. There is a whirlpool to the west that contains a treasure chest with the Mercury Crest inside it.

Mercury Sigil

You receive the Mercury Crest for completing the Village of the Cactuars side quest. Check out the Cactuar Village section for more information:

Return to Macalania Woods to the area where you received the Celestial Mirror once you have obtained both the Mercury Crest and the Mercury Sigil. Offer Godhand up twice to fully power it up using both the Crest and Sigil.
