Obtaining and Upgrading Caladbolg

How to Obtain Caladbolg

Obtaining Caladbolg

The path to Caladbolg will be blocked by a guard. To make the guard leave his post, you must defeat the chocobo trainer in the race. Head to the hidden area then use the Celestial Mirror at the glyph.

Crest Location

Sun Crest

The Sun Crest is located in the room you fought Yunalesca in Zanarkand. It is highly advised to get it after the battle as you will be blocked by dark Bahamut. Use one of the broken stairs to port to the other stair in the same room. The treasure chest will appear after doing this step.

Sigil Location

Sun Sigil

The runner up for the most difficult to obtain Sigil in the game next to the Venus Sigil. To obtain it, you must obtain a perfect time in the chocobo catcher mini-game from Chocobo Training.
