All Resistance Weapons in Final Fantasy XIV Online

In Final Fantasy XIV, the Resistance Weapons are level 80 Relic Weapons. Relic Weapons are high-level, post-expansion content designed to give you a goal to achieve in the patches that follow a major expansion. 

For Shadowbringers, these were the Resistance Weapons, a series of weapons tied to the Bozja Southern Front, and the Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr story line. Below we’ve compiled a full list of all the Resistance Weapons, their item level, and an outline of how to get them.
