So here is our Aileen’s Weapons and Adamantite guide to help you get some of the best weapons in the game and unlock The Weapon That Suits The User and The Weaponsmith trophies/achievements for crafting one and all of Aileen’s weapons, respectively.

Aileen’s Weapons & Adamantite Guide
Forger of Wills Side Quest
Aileen is a renowned weaponsmith and one of the original characters in FF Resonance who can join you as a Vision. To encounter her, you need to undertake the ‘Forger of Wills’ side quest, which becomes available at the start of Chapter Five, ‘Scars of Time’, and you’ll find it at the crossroads in Dalmagia.
After talking to the quest giver, head to the shipyard in Dalmagia and you’ll spot the pink-haired Aileen standing by the rail. Talk to her, and Rain decides to learn more about her before answering her questions.
Talk to the three NPCs near the Dalmagia weapons and armor shop, next to the Chocobo ranch in the Village of Kol, and by some crates in the Rebel Hideout in Zoldaad.
Once you have done all that, return to the shipyard in Dalmagia and talk to Aileen again.
The correct answers to her questions are:
- It’s a tool of harm.
- A way to rebel against troubling times.
- Craft weapons that suit each of us well.
After you answer her questions correctly, Aileen agrees to join you as a Vision you can equip, and you can find her on the front deck of your airship, the Enterprise. However, she won’t make weapons for you yet.
Aileen says she needs to see you in action, so equip her to someone in your party (active or on the bench doesn’t matter) and raise her Mastery Rank to 9.
Now Aileen is happy to be your weaponsmith, and just needs the materials to make them. Well, one material: Adamantite.
