Embark on a Final Fantasy Treasure Hunt
In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, exploration is key to uncovering hidden treasures scattered throughout the vast world. Among these treasures lies the elusive Pirate King’s Treasure, waiting to be discovered by intrepid adventurers. Here’s everything you need to know to embark on this thrilling quest and claim the coveted loot, but beware of minor spoilers ahead.
The quest for the Pirate King’s Treasure commences early in Chapter 12: A Golden Key, following the crash landing of the Tiny Bronco, which transforms into a seaworthy vessel. Your journey begins at Costa del Sol, where the Tiny Bronco is moored. Seek out a chest adorned with ethereal purple crossed swords to initiate the quest, revealing a treasure map pinpointing the locations of four Pirate’s Grottoes.
To navigate to these hidden grottoes, you’ll need to set sail aboard the Tiny Bronco. Utilize the following navigation tips:
- Press left on the D-pad to unveil the treasure map.
- Hold the L1 button to enlarge the map for clearer visibility.
- Hide the treasure map by pressing right on the D-pad if desired.
Each Pirate’s Grotto harbors a formidable guardian that must be defeated to claim the Pirate’s Relic contained within. Here’s a breakdown of the encounters and strategies:
- Hueyacoatl’s Lair: Northeast of Costa del Sol. Exploit wind element attacks to exploit the monster’s weakness and disrupt its Supercharged state.
- Sea Dragon’s Cove: Further northeast from the Hueyacoatl encounter. Employ Bio to inflict poison status and leverage lightning spells to stagger the Sea Dragon.
- Brineborn Demon’s Abyss: South of Crow’s Nest in the Junon region. Utilize fire element attacks to stagger the demon and thwart its devastating Graviga spell.
Once you’ve obtained all four Pirate’s Relics, craft the Corsair’s Compass using the Item Transmuter menu. With the compass in hand, set sail across the Meridian Ocean aboard the Tiny Bronco. Keep an eye out for golden reticles with arrows, signaling the presence of purple containers brimming with Pirate’s Jetsam and other rare materials.
Armed with this knowledge, venture forth into the depths of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s expansive world and seize the Pirate King’s Treasure for fame and fortune await the bold and adventurous.
