Upgrading to a Zodiac Zeta Weapon
For this final step, begin by completing the quest Rise and Shine which will unlock this stages grind. You can then speak to Remon in Western La Noscea (34, 32) who allows you to exchange 50 poetics for a Mahatma named after the original Atmas.
Each Mahatma requires you to light farm yet again with your relic equipped to awaken the Mahatma. Once a Mahatma is awakened, you can then purchase another from Remon until all 12 Mahatmas have been fully awakened.
To put it simply, the best way to farm Mahatmas is to run Aurum Vale with 2 runs awakening a Mahatma. Therefore 24 runs later, you have your relic completed when you finish the quest The Vital Title by speaking to Jalzahn in North Shroud again.
Mahatma Light Values Explained
Each Mahatma requires 40 points to be fully awakened as shown in the table below. Mahatma light also shares the same bonus light windows as the previous Novus stage however Aurum Vale still tends to be faster at level 100.
