7.EquipmentUpgrade/TreasureHunterGuideFinalFantasyXIIIWalkthrough
When talking about weapons, the only EXP that matters is the total EXP that a weapon requires to
reach its max Level. This is because every Tier-1 weapon can only be acquired at Lv 1, and every
Tier-2 and Tier-3 weapon can only be acquired after upgrading a Tier-1 or Tier-2 weapon.
Therefore, all weapons, on all Tiers, can only have one starting level. This is why you will only see
one set of EXP values for every weapon.
Accessories are a bit different, because it often happens that you can acquire an accessory both
via loot/shops/..., and by upgrading another accessory. For example, the Silver Bangle can be
bought, found in treasures (in both cases it will start at Level 1), but it can also be acquired as an
upgrade from the Iron Bangle (in this case it will start at Level 4). In the second case, the starting
EXP (and therefore Level) of the Silver Bangle will not be the same as a Silver Bangle that was
bought as a Lv 1 item.
Because of this reason, in the Accessories table each accessory will have two rows with EXP values.
The upper row refers to the EXP required to upgrade that accessory to max Level starting from a
Lv 1 accessory. The lower row refers to the EXP required to upgrade that accessory to max Level
starting from a Lv X accessory acquired by upgrading its lower version.
Practically speaking, this means that if you want to upgrade a Silver Bangle to max level and you
bought the Silver Bangle from the shop, you'll have to refer to the first row, and your Silver Bangle
will require 1,560 EXP to reach max Level (starting from Lv 1). If you got your Silver Bangle after
upgrading an Iron Bangle, refer to the second row: your Silver Bangle needs only 780 EXP to reach
max Level, since it already starts at Lv 4.
Sometimes some accessories have "empty" rows. The reasons for this should be obvious: the
lowest-grade accessory of a certain type (such as the Iron Bangle) can't have the second row, since
it can only be acquired as a Lv 1 item, and not by upgrading another accessory. Similarly, the
highest-grade accessory of a certain type (such as the Wurtzite Bangle) can't have the first row,
since it can only be acquired as a Lv X (in its case, Lv 32) accessory by upgrading its lower-grade
version (the Adamant Bangle-max level).

# Treasure Hunter
.
# General Info
The achievement Treasure Hunter requires you to own, at any time during your playthrough, all
the possible accessories and weapons in the game. By "at any time" I mean that you don't have
to own all the possible weapons and accessories at the same time: if you had, say, an Iron
Bangle back in Chapter 1, and then you sold it and never obtained another one again, you won't
have to actually have an Iron Bangle in your inventory in the moment you unlock the achievement,
because the game will always "remember" that at some point in the past you had this item with
you.
# Missable Items
There are missable items that can permanently void you the opportunity of unlocking Treasure
Hunter due to their limited stock in the Post-Ending game world. These missable items are all
accessories that reduce elemental damage:
- Ember Ring, Salamandrine Ring (Fire)
- Icicle Ring, Boreal Ring (Ice)
- Spark Ring, Raijin Ring (Thunder)
- Aqua Ring, Nereid Ring (Water)
- Sylphid Ring (Wind)
- Gaian Ring (Earth)
Truth be told, you have to try really hard to make this achievement missable, because these items
can be obtained from many different sources available even in the post-ending game. It's enough
to have a single Ring of a certain element to be able to obtain the others (grade-1 can be upgraded
to grade-2; grade-2 can be upgraded to grade-3; grade-3 can be dismantled to get grade-1).
Each of the missable "grade-1" elemental accessories (Ember Ring, Spark Ring, Aqua Ring) can be
obtained by dismantling the corresponding-element "charm" accessory (Fire Charm, Thunder
Charm, etc.) which are available (but in limited amounts) in the areas explorable in the postending game. Moreover, you should already have these accessories (the grade-1 elemental
accessories) from treasure spheres in the first Chapters of the game. You can also obtain these
accessories by dismantling the corresponding grade-3 elemental accessory (which you may obtain
from a copy of the grade-2 elemental accessory, often received from quests available in the postending game).
The only missable "grade-2" elemental accessory (Icicle Ring) can be obtained by upgrading the
corresponding grade-1 elemental accessory (Frost Ring), which in its turn can be obtained by
dismantling the Ice Charm.
All the grade-3 elemental accessories (Salamandrine, Boreal, Raijin, Nereid, Sylphid, and Gaian
Rings) must be obtained by upgrading the corresponding grade-2 elemental accessory.
As you can see, there are multiple sources to get these items, and therefore it's really hard to
make it ultimately impossible to obtain these accessories. Below is a summary of all the possible
sources for these missable accessories.
Fire Set (8x sources available): 2x Ember Ring in Vile Peaks, 1x Ember Ring on Palamecia, 2x Blaze
Ring in Eden, 2x Blaze Ring for Cie'th Mission # 27 and # 53, 1x Ember Ring by dismantling Fire
Charm.

1x Ice Charm in Mah'habara.

Ring in Sunleth Waterscape, 1x Spark Ring on Palamecia, 1x Fulmen Ring from Cie'th Mission # 06,
1x Lightning Charm in The Archylte Steppe.
Water Set (6x available): 1x Aqua Ring in Sunleth Waterscape, 1x Riptide Ring in Sunleth
Waterscape, 1x Aqua Ring in Palumpolum, 1x Water Charm in The Archyte Steppe, 1x Riptide Ring
