In Crisis Core Reunion there are lots of different accessories for Zack to get. These range from preventing all status effects with the Super Ribbon to extremely powerful equipment like Ziedrich which will boost all your attributes by 100 as well as halving all elemental damage done to you. There are a lot of choices in this game, and this page will tell you what are the best, and where you can find them.

Heike Soul¶

This is arguably the best accessory in the game, unfortunately, it can only be obtained by getting 100% mission completion. At that stage of the game, the accessory is almost useless. Equipping the Heike Soul accessory will give you the following effects: Adaman Bangle, Brutal, Black Cowl, Gold Hairpin, Wizard Bracelet, Doc’s Code, Brigand’s Gloves, Mog’s Amulet, Jeweled Ring, Precious Watch, Libra, Smart Consumer, SP Master, Dualcast and Cursed Ring.

Genji Helm¶

The Genji set has always been strong in Final Fantasy games, and it’s no different for the Genji Helm. This helmet allows you to cast any spell or ability without spending any MP or AP. On top of that, you get a handy Libra effect. This can only be purchased at the Online Shop Shade (Mission 9-5-4) for 1,000,000 Gil! Best start selling those Golden Rolling Pins.

Genji Armor¶

The Genji Armor accessory sets the HP limit to 99,999 while also adding Endure and Regen. The earliest you can get this is Chapter 8 as that is when you’ll get the final DMW image. Getting this tricky accessory will require you to max out every image in the DMW. For this reason, we recommend waiting until the end of the game to get this.

Genji Shield¶

Keeps “Barrier” and “MBarrier” active while absorbing all elements, nulls, and statues. Acquiring the Genji Shield is a lengthy process with multiple steps. You’ll need to first make sure you have the Magic Pot Summon and then head into Mission 7-6-6 to try to encounter another.

Now, you’ll need to use the following Materia on it: Gil Toss, Costly Punch. Then you’ll need to deal 99,999 damage (just use Costly Punch again), and finally, the Octaslash Limit Break. The last part of the equation is the tedious part. You’ll need to wait, and hope that Octaslash pops up in battle to finish the Magic Pot’s requests.

Genji Gloves¶

The last part of the Genji set is the Genji Gloves. This wonderful accessory will give you the Brutal accessory effects, but also makes all of your attacks Critical! To grab the Genji Glove, you’ll need to continue to progress through the M9 series of missions until you unlock M9-6-4, another Rank 10 Mission. From the start of the Mission, go left at the first intersection, and you’ll find the Genji Glove in the chest at the end. Just remember you’ll need to clear the Mission if you want to keep it after.

Ziedrich¶

Another extremely powerful accessory. Ziedrich will increase all of your attributes by 100 while also halving all elemental attacks against you. This accessory can only be found inside a chest during the difficult M9-5-6.

Divine Slayer¶

The Divine Slayer accessory will raise your HP, MP, and AP by 100%, while also increasing your attributes (ATK, VIT, MAG, SPR, LCK) by 50. Furthermore, it’ll break all attack, HP, MP, and AP limits, and detect your opponent’s status. You can get this powerful accessory as a reward for completing M9-6-6.

Super Ribbon¶

Like the normal Ribbon, but it’ll also prevent the Death status effect. This is a fantastic accessory against any enemies that perform a lot of status attacks such as the Great Marlboro, which is where you can !steal one from! If you don’t want to go through the hassle of stealing it, you can also get it as a reward for completing M9-6-2.

Dark Agent¶

Not quite as powerful as Divine Slayer or Ziedrich. The Dark Agent accessory will increase your HP by 100%, and your AP by 50% while also increasing your ATK and VIT by 100. On top of that, your abilities won’t cost any AP. On the flip side, your MP will be reduced by 100%, and your MAG and SPR will drop by 100. This is primarily an ability accessory. You can find this in one of the Treasure Chests in M9-4-4.

Power Suit and Energy Suit¶

These two accessories are polar opposites. The Power Suit will increase your attack based parameters at the cost of your magic abilities while the Energy Suit will increase your spell-slinging at the cost of ATK. These are great until you can get some better accessories. The Power Suit will offer you HP + 100%, MP -50%, AP – 50%, +100 ATK and VIT, -50 MAG and SPR while the Energy Suit will offer HP -50%, MP +100%, AP -50%, -50 ATK and VIT, +100 MAG and SPR.

You can get the Power Suit as a Reward from M7-5-4, from treasure chests in M6-6-6 and M7-6-3 or you can steal it from Vajradhara Asura. The Energy Suit comes as a Reward from M7-5-5 and M7-6-6, a treasure chest in M9-6-5 or you can steal it from Grannygalan.

Soul of Thamasa and Laurel Crown¶

The Soul of Thamasa will allow you to cast spells without spending a single MP, and the Laurel Crown will allow you to use Command abilities without spending a single AP. You can find the Soul of Thamasa in treasure chests in both M9-4-4 and M9-6-5 or you can !steal it from a Shadow Monk, but this is a rare chance. The Laurel Crown on the other hand can be found as a reward for completing M9-5-4, in a treasure chest in M9-6-2 or as a rare !steal of a Diatryma.

Adaman Bangle, Black Cowl, Brutal, and Gold Hairpin¶

These accessories are extremely useful mid-game to break either the HP, AP, Damage, and MP limits to 99,999. You should be using some of these until you unlock the end-game versions. You can acquire the accessories from the following places:

• Adaman Bangle (HP) - Reward for completing M7-3-6, treasure chests in M9-2-4 and M9-5-4 or a rare !steal from Grandpanzer.

• Black Cowl (AP) - Reward for completing M7-3-1, treasure chests in M2-5-5 and M9-3-3 or a rare !steal from Mock Soldier A or Diatryma.

• Brutal (Damage) - Reward for completing M7-4-6 and M9-5-1, treasure chest in M9-6-3 or a rare !steal from Crazy Sword.

• Gold Hairpin (MP) - Reward for completing M2-5-6 and M7-3-4, treasure chests in M9-2-5 and M9-6-4 or !stealing it from Belial.

Assault Targe and Impervious¶

These two accessories are also polar opposites. The Assault Targe is an offensive accessory that will increase your ATK and VIT by 50 at the cost of reducing your MAG and SPR by 80. The Impervious on the other hand, is defensive by nature and will offer you HP, MP, and AP +10%, +120 VIT and SPR at the cost of -50 ATK and MAG. You can get both of the accessories as a drop from the Magic Pot (M7-6-6).

Feather Cap¶

The Feather Cap is unique as it can triple your parameters for a limit break. Although its description is impressive, you most likely won’t use this accessory outside some specific strategies. You can obtain the Feather Cap from a treasure chest in M4-3-2 or as a drop from the Magic Pot (M7-6-6).

Niche Accessories¶

These accessories are great for what they do, but you won’t be using most of them outside very specific scenarios.

• Good-Luck Charm - +100 Luck. Great for Luck builds to farm specific things. Obtained in a treasure chest in M9-5-6, Reward from completing M7-6-1 or stolen from Tonberry King.

• Brigand’s Gloves - Guarantees a successful steal from an enemy. Great when combined with the Mug materia. Purchased from Sec.7 Shop, found in a treasure chest in M9-3-5 or a reward for completing M7-4-2.

• Mog’s Amulet - LCK +5. Items dropped or stolen will always be rare. Great for getting rare items. Purchased from Sec.7 Shop or as a reward for completing M7-6-4.

• Jeweled Ring - LCK +20. Doubles items dropped by enemy. Great for farming items, bad for everything else. Purchased from Online Shop Shade or dropped by Magic Pots.

• Precious Watch - +10 LCK. Doubles gil dropped by enemy. Great for gil farming, bad for everything else. Purchased from Online Shop Shade or stolen from Tonberry King.

• Fury Ring - Answers enemy attacks with a counterattack. This is a niche as it gets, great against Tonberries I guess? Ironically, stolen from Tonberry Guards.

• Doc’s Code - Automatically uses “Potion” when HP is critically low. Having auto-potion is nice and all, but you won’t use this over anything else.
