How to get Stormcry Sword in Final Fantasy XVI

The Stormcry Sword becomes available in Final Fantasy 16 once you’ve reached main mission number 15. When this mission has been completed, you’ll need to go to The Hideaway where you’ll be able to craft the Stormcry Sword.

Like any other sword of this nature, though, you will need some resources on hand to actually craft the weapon and make it a reality. Thankfully, unlike other swords in the game, you only need one material to create it – one Wind Shard.

This weapon is capable of dishing out 135 base damage and if you want a tiny bit more information and lore behind the weapon, here’s the official description that comes with it: “So spurred by her cries did wind become storm – Eikonmachy – Book of Gales 13:32.”
