Learn how to obtain the Excalibur sword for Steiner in Final Fantasy IX. This guide details the steps needed, including items to collect and NPCs to find, starting in Disc 4.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin the quest in Disc 4 by traveling to Daguerreo (requires airship or flying Chocobo).
  2. 2
    On the second floor of Daguerreo, find the Old Man on the far left. He will ask you to retrieve a Magical Fingertip.
  3. 3
    To make the Magical Fingertip appear at the Treno Auction House, you must first win four specific items at the auction and sell them to designated NPCs in Treno:
    • Griffin's Heart - Sell to an Adventurer in the Bishop House area.
  4. 4
    Doga's Artifact - Sell to a Scholar inside the Synthesis Shop.
  5. 5
    Une's Mirror - Sell to a Nobleman in the Bishop House area.
  6. 6
    Rat Tail - Sell to an Adventurer in the Bishop House area (this can be done in Disc 3).
  7. 7
    After selling all four items, return to the Treno Auction House. The Magical Fingertip should now be available. Be prepared to spend approximately 55,000 Gil to win it.
  8. 8
    Take the Magical Fingertip back to the Old Man in Daguerreo.
  • Excalibur (sword for Steiner)
Tips
  • The Rat Tail can be acquired and sold as early as Disc 3.
  • Ensure you have at least 55,000 Gil to purchase the Magical Fingertip at the auction.
  • The Excalibur is distinct from the Excalibur II, which is a different weapon with its own acquisition method.
