How to unlock the Sword of Kings achievement in FINAL FANTASY IX - Definitive Guide

As a heads up, I've been playing in Japanese (and have never played the game in English before) and was following a Japanese guide, so the names I use may well not be exactly what things are called in English.

You need to be able to travel to Dagereo (requires an airship), and you will need somewhere over 50000 gil to afford the required items. I did this after
.

There's an old man on the second floor of Dagereo who will ask for a Magic Fingertip (魔法の指先). Travel to Toreno and go to the auction house, where you will need to win the following four items: Griffon Heart (グリフォンハート), Doga's Magical Device (ドーガの魔導器), Une's Dream Mirror (ウネの夢幻鏡), and Rat's Tail (ネズミのしっぽ), which you will then sell to people in Toreno.

1) Sell Doga's Magical Device to the Scholar in the Synthesizer's Shop.
2) Sell the Une's Dream Mirror to the Nobleman in the Cafe
3) Sell the Griffon Heart to the Adventurer in the Cafe
4) Leave the area and return to sell the same Adventurer the Rat's Tail

Now return to the auction house and win the Magic Fingertip which is now available. Return to the old man in Dagereo and give it to him, and he will give you Excalibur in exchange.

worked just fine I think Doga's Magical Device is Doga's Artifact but everyone should be able to figure it out just fine. Great guide ty!! (note for anyone interested you can rebuy the items you sold at the auction house again for anyone who wants them)

During your second trip to Treno during the card tournament on Disc 3, you will be able to win the four key items required for Excalibur.

You need to get the Griffin's Heart, Doga's Artifact, Une's Mirror and Rat Tail from the Auction House in Treno. Then you need to sell them to four specific NPCs in Treno.

-Doga's Artifact: Sell to the Scholar in the Synthesis Shop.

-Une's Mirror: Sell to the Nobleman walking around at Cafe Carta.

-Griffin's Heart: Sell to one of the Adventurers walling around at Cafe Carta.

-Rat Tail: Sell to one of the Adventurers walking around at Cafe Carta.

Once you've sold all four items, go to the inn at Daguerreo and speak to the old man standing near the innkeeper. He will ask for an item called the Magical Fingertip.

Head back to the Treno Auction House and win the Magical Fingertip when it comes up for auction. With the Magical Fingertip in hand, return to the old man at Daguerreo one last time to exchange the Magical Fingertip for the Excalibur and you will get this trophy.

Obtaining Excalibur involves some auctioning at the Treno Auction House. You will be required to win four unique key items from the auction, sell them all to specific NPCs then win a new key item from the auction. During your first visit to Treno as Dagger, you will be able to win three key items from the auction house: the Griffin's Heart, Doga's Artifact and Une's Mirror. Because winning these items might be too costly at first and you won't need them until much later in the game anyway, it may be a good idea to put it off until later.

During your second trip to Treno during the card tournament on Disc 3, you will be able to win the fourth key item required for Excalibur, the Rat Tail. Once you have the Griffin's Heart, Doga's Artifact, Une's Mirror and Rat Tail in possession, you must sell them to four specific NPCs in Treno.

  • Doga's Artifact: Sell to the Scholar in the Synthesis Shop.
  • Une's Mirror: Sell to the Nobleman at Cafe Carta.
  • Griffin's Heart: Sell to one of the Adventurers at Cafe Carta.
  • Rat Tail: Sell to one of the Adventurers at Cafe Carta.

Once you've sold all four items, make your way to the inn at Daguerreo and speak to the old man standing near the innkeeper. He will request an item called the Magical Fingertip. Head back to the Treno Auction House and win the Magical Fingertip when it comes up for auction. With the Magical Fingertip in hand, return to the old man at Daguerreo one last time to exchange the Magical Fingertip for the Excalibur and you will obtain this trophy.

To obtain Excalibur, you must win five different items from the auction house in Treno. I would suggest waiting to do this until your return for the second time in Disc 3 since only three of the items are available during the first visit, and you need to blow all your money for an ATE in Lindblum which is the next story destination anyway. When you return, win the Griffin's Heart, Doga's Artifact, Une's Mirror, and Rat Tail items and then you must sell these items to people around Treno. They are the Scholar in the Synthesis Shop, the Nobleman in the Cafe, and the two Adventurers in the Cafe (you can usually only find one of those three in the Cafe at any time, just move screens and come back to get a new person).

Once you have the above step done, speak with the old man at the Daguerreo Inn after the events at Shimmering Island. He will request the Magical Fingertip from the auction house. Go back and win that, then return to trade it for Excalibur.

In order for Magical Fingertrip to appear, you first need to buy it at auction and sell it: Doga's Artifact - sell it to Scholar in the synthesis shop in Treno.
Une's Mirror - sell to Nobleman near the cafe in Treno. Griffin's Heart - Sell to Adventurer near the cafe in Treno. Rat Tail - sell it to him (first exit the screen and come back).
After purchasing the Magical Fingertrip, we give it to the old man in Daguerreo (he is on the second floor, in the library).
