Octopath Traveler - How to Steal Golden Axe / Best Weapon in Chapter 1
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 20. 05. 2024
- The best weapon in the Octopath Traveler demo currently lies in Clearbrook, Alfyn's town. This is easiest with H'aanit and Therion, as H'aanit will be able to Provoke a townsperson and Therion can steal it. This guide will go over exactly how to do it!
Guide: (Check below for timestamp of Golden Axe)
1. Start with H'aanit and complete her first boss. Be sure to capture a few Sword-focused monsters.
2. Work your way down to Bolderfall and pick up Therion. Steal whatever you want in town, but steal a bunch of soulstones as this will make his boss easier and also upcoming battles.
3. Head further south to Clearbrook where Alfyn's scenario starts. But do not commence his introduction.
4:59 for Golden Axe stealing method
4. Save your game and head to the lady with the speech bubble above her head standing in front of a door. Provoke and defeat her. She's weak vs Swords, with H'aanit, I managed to beat her at lv8 with attacks to break and 2 fully charged Sword monster attacks when she was broken.
5. Head inside the house and use the steal command on the old man. You have a 3% chance to steal the Golden Axe and 4 attempts before bad reputation sets in with the townsfolk. If you fail, reload your save and repeat until you get it.

Enchanted Sword, rare drop from the guard named Alphas on the left of the purple chest outside Ravus Manor. The sword has 464 attack.
Oh dude! Thanks for this tip! That would make a party with 2 OP characters. Good stuff.
Very welcome. Its pretty rare so good luck if you try for it lol. Took me like an hour of reloads and game overs when it showed up after beating him. He hits like a truck too.
Do you fight him? Or steal it?
Matt Herbert it's a rare drop after you fight him with the Challenge action. If he doesn't drop it just reload and try again.
Is there a recommended level for this? I think it's 5 or 6 star difficulty.
Most of the comment got it at a pretty decent try.
It took me almost 200 tries to get it.
Finally got it after wasting 20 mins. I closed the game from the home screen and rebooted the game. Then got it on my 5-6 try!
Took me 35 mins of being pissed to get this lol thanks man!!
This still works on Switch in 2022. Thank you for the awesome tip.
Thanks for this. Going through a playthrough and took my 5th try from save scumming.
Awesome guide thanks mate!
got both golden axe and argent axe in 15mins!! not too shabby, thanks million Anamana!
Man I absolutely love H'aanit's character design. She's freaking gorgeous. Such a shame that I need to start with Primrose instead tho due to her story being so good, cus she kind of sucks in combat, specially alone, but I simply have to start w her cus her story is so dang good.
There is Death Cleaver that provides even more Phy.Atk/Crit and seldomly add poison to enemies, But it's PITA to get. So i think Golden Axe is the great start.
Thank you about to do this now
May the RNG gods give you good luck!
I just figure out your channel,little late to see this tutorial mode to get weapons and armors easy because just get many items doing this above couple of hours ago today but doesnt mean this weapons is useless,ty for share all this tips with us :)
Definitely a guide which is more useful for new players and back when the game first came out!
Thanks will try it later
Awesome tip! Just got it today.
Awesome, having fun? It's so pretty to look at and the music is wonderful!
Anamana! Yeah Iâm in to about 21hrs at the moment. Almost completed all chapter 2s. Really enjoying it
Great video. Iâm definitely going to get that on my main save file when the game comes out. I was also wondering if at some point you can make a somewhat in-depth video on Alfynâs âConcoctâ ability and how it works. Iâve come across some people with questions and itâd be really easy to just refer them to one of your videos.
Iâm thinking I might do this next, had a few questions on this đ
Alfyn = most op character in the game. His concoct ability can deal all types of damage, heal everyone for massive amounts, and at the same time he can be a super tank. I started my game over and made him my main, haan'it is now warming the bench.
That axe đȘ Bussin
Laughing Hyena capture monster has the best attack for her in the game in the beginning. Took her out with 1 attack from Hyena at 3 stars on 3rd turn. It also took off 2000+ damage in Therion's story against the servant đđŸ
Where is the laughing hyena?
I luckily did this naturally before this video on my first attempt too. Alfyn using this axe with last resort is GAME OVER!
Once you start stealing items, itâs hard to do it any other way!
I bought the Necklaces from Tressa's parents because for some reason you can't buy those. They are also OP
So I saw one of your tips says to use sword based monsters when the enemy is broken. However weaknesses are irrelevant when an enemy is broken as ALL attacks do 2x damage when they are broken. Weaknesses are only relevant when the enemy is NOT broken. Just thought I should point this out as some ppl don't seem to know this fact.
Can you do this if you already have Alfyn? I didn't know about this until AFTER I'd already got him as my 3rd character. đ„đ€Š
Hi, can i ask since i heard in the vid. Is there a time limit to getting it?
I still do this when I replay the game. The axes are just so good in early game. What's weird is that everytime I do this I steal that 3% axe waaay quicker than the 8% one. It usually only takes 1-2 saves till I'll steal it while the 8% always takes quite a bit more
got it on first try, god bless rngesus
You know what it is weird when I was rebooting the game I came across this error code I thought my game was corrupted but it's fine but short story I rebooted the game a second time after 3 tries on my fourth try I got the golden axe on my second reboot of reloading the game I am so happy and excited I can't wait to test it out right now I don't want to start over again on my game after this moment of getting a powerful weapon I'm just going to Keep On Truckin on my game
So, few questions. I know I'm starting this game now lol, but could you explain the 3 hour time limit, when it begins on the Axe, what he meant about the Sword, where and who I can get it from, and when would be the best time to get it? Should I grind before therion for the sword then get the Axe, I'm confused.
This was the demo which lasted 3 hours
FFS second try!?!?!? Damn bro i'm still trying! 3% yeah right...
Even stuff that should be a high chance of getting, 80%, I still fail to get what I need. Took me 7 tries to get the Golden Axe with save scumming. And whenever it's 80% expect to do the same thing twice.
Itâs all RNG. I had terrible luck stealing other items.
Can I save after I've beaten the woman at the door? I've made a save after downing her and I've been at this for over an hour.
I had a 3% chance to steal with with a level 32 Therion. I saved before hand thinking I was going to have to reset my game many times but got it in the first theft. Lol I celebrated.
Very nice. Now i have a question for you? Are gonna do one with a good spot to level up? Earlier up in the game. Or s spot to get good jp spots.
Once I get a bit more time in, I likely will. Just wanna be sure I have the best info from experiencing it myself. đ
Curtis Reid if you're lucky to get exp/jp x100 from bewildering dance that's one way, others I've seen involve using powerful characters and just finishing fights quickly.
Thanks just Got It !!!!!!! While grinding to lvl 12 killing mobs.
Amazing! Massive damage incoming! đ
I got the axe in one try. Idk how. I tried stealing the weaker axe first, and tried twice with no success. Then I decided to go for the Golden Axe just for fun, and I got it the first try. Damn I'm lucky
@Anamana!
Just reached this area after maining Olberic. Got Hannit and Therion. Why is the challenge and provoke crossed? Cant get over the lady blocking the door. Need help!
Did you pick up Alfyn? Or are you mid way through a Chapter?
Anamana!
No i did not pick up Alfyn. Should i take and finish his story too? I did not see you take him though.
Edit: nevermind i got through thanks
do NPCs recover from provoke/challenge battles?
Yep, I think it's tied to moving past a few areas.
Wait, does provoke also gives items?
I also got it on my second attempt
Hell yeah!
What other Excellent weapons can you steal
So can you leave the town and Provoke/fight the woman again if you want? Asking cus I know there are some NPC's with fantastic but rare drops when defeated. Question is can you farm them or can you only fight each of them once?
Just save after u defeat them. And then reload the game
thanks for the great video, I'm currently playing the game ( it's out now of course) and I have loved RPGs since I was a kid in the 90s. I'm about 25 hours into Olberic's story, and if anyone has any doubts or questions to whether or not it's worth the price tag hit me up. I'd love to talk about how good this game is! again, thank you very much for your great content!
Bryce Heiner Is it a big game? How many hours are required to beat the game?
Lx Beltran it's a big game. I just picked up the 8th character and I'm 14 hours in going at a pretty good pace. Each character has 4 chapters of their story total and I'm only finished chapter one on each. Not to mention there are side quests, side areas, sub job shrines to find and bonus bosses. I think 80 hours is the number that people average on their first playthrough.
wow you guys are fast because I'm about 30 hours in and I'm just about to get primrose she's the last character I'm getting... I guess I do love to grind in my old school RPGs as well as take my time. I want it to last you know? But it is an amazing game is it not?
Iâm enjoying it, but I donât believe in telling people a game is good or bad. Itâs relative to your interests. If you enjoy it, then itâs good.
Anamana! true true, if you don't enjoy old school RPGs then it may not be up someone's alley.
Question guys is it too late for me to steal the golden axe?
Mine does not work, after beating the grandchild, I get in the house and just see that oldman sleeping on his bad. I cannot interact with him. Are there any prerequisites must be done in order to do this? I have H'aanit, Theriod and Alfyn in my party
As mentioned in the video, you need to do it before collecting Alfyn. It may be possible to do it after finishing Alfyn's first Chapter, when side quests become available in town. But if you're on his quest, the old man will be sleeping.
Anamana! so cool mate, its my fault for not watching carefully! many thanks
No worries, mate! Hopefully it's definitely there when you finish up. It's very useful!
Hieu D Do I've read that moving past or completing specific chapters can lock out some stuff, i.e. completing alfyn's chapter 2 locks aquiring the golden ax this way. Don't know if it is true but I did get it myself this way after aquiring alfyn. Possible you couldn't during alf's chapter 1 the towns do change a bit after chapters.
Took me 1 try. Tap and go đ
got it on my 4th attempt. wow! before that i got the commemorative coin from an NPC in Sunshade Tavern on my first try which had 3% chance of being stolen as well. hahaha lucky me!
Damn, thatâs an item Iâd been trying to steal so many times, but he wouldnât give it up! How much does it sell for?
Yea, got lucky! Sold it for 25k. I honestly thought it would sell for 50k or something. lol
Holy crap, thatâs some good lettuce
thanks for the video, in a span of 1 and half hours, I managed to get the commemorative coin, the golden axe, and the freaking enchanted sword! wow! i wish i could've recorded it or post some screenshots. :) thanks a bunch again.
Then there's me who needs 4 attemps for a 96% chance... xd
I may be false but if the enemys shield is broken, it doesn't matter if you attack with the weakness. Those are only there to break him
I think this is how it works too.
Anamana! Fast Reply huh.. Nice!
Just sayin' cause you used up one of your captured mobs instead of Linde, which isn't that bad but you never know when you need it and then you won't have it cause you used it 2 times more than needed
I know, haha. This was a few weeks ago in the demo period, where we were all learning to play the game. I'm a lot better now.
Anamana! Well yeah xd but you never know if a newbie will watch this. I got the vid in my recommendations today e.g.
I may not be a newbie but I saw it today. And if a newbie watch this and see this comment, he's sure to learn ^^
I'm not sure. I find myself dealing less damage if the weapon or spell I use is not weak against it.
Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse but, you can save after defeating the granddaughter and still get it, correct?
Yes, You can beat her and then save, she will still unconscious, unless you walked out of town completely.
@@SillyDeal1604 thank you!! I honestly didn't think it worked until like the 15th time.. cause I saved after defeating the granddaughter but it finally worked! Thanks for the reply tho! I appreciate it
Can i still get the axe after i finished chapter 1 of alfyn?
That's what I'd like to know. Didn't know about this until AFTER I got him as my 3rd character. đ„đ€Š
@@jaimereupert4247 yes you can
i am trying to get that axe for 1 hours with quit and load method, and still didn't get that. so frustrating.
If you have the gold and appropriate level for Tressa, you should be able to buy it instead. But stealing is free!
I never knew that you have to raise the characters level for their path action to take a chance interesting where is your characters level at the moment let me guess level 99 with their path action at level 99 OMG LOL
I REALLY hate that this game doesn't have in game maps for the various areas you traverse! It's freaking 2023 & we still have games without area maps?? That's just dumb imo! There should also be an icon or something that tells us when we have gotten all possible items in a town or area! This would make the game far easier to complete on our own vs needing to use a guide for things!
theres also a forbidden dagger in still snow although
I think I've seen a few of these. Wonder if it's locked behind a side quest or even a specific advanced class skill?
No, it's just that you can't steal those, they can only be bought...
Good to know! Thanks for the info đ I'm taking such a slow time playing the game, just so I don't miss anything.
Anamana! Oh yeah, and all those "forbidden" weapons have a bad side effect.
Some of them can eventually rise your opponent's attack, for example...
Can we get the golden axe in the game and not the demo?
You can! The demo is 1 to 1 with the main game.
I literally saw the 3% chance and said fuck it and tried it once and got it lol
Dude! Nice!
Ok now I gotta do this for that axe. Just started.
You can't get it anymore. Its hidden behind a NPC you can't challenge until level 25 now
@@coreyhouse2647 lame was just gonna start a fresh game and do this oh well
@@marshallbeck9101 on Xbox one version*. Not sure about Switch, sorry
This has turned into a grind...
Update: It finally worked. I had all characters and was about to start all the chapter 2's when I saw this video. Level 25 Cyrus and Olberic, level 16 Therion, and 21 Tressa
Welcome to RNG, it's a great some days, a pain the next.
@@AnamanaCh I appreciate the videos. Been a huge help with this game. Not an RPG guy. I was in a car wreck 5 months ago, and couldn't do much for about 4 months. Got this game, really enjoyed it, so this is really the first RPG I've actually enjoyed. I've created a whole playlist with your videos. Glad you made these.
Hope youâre healing up well, mate! Thanks for the lovely words
Been trying for 2 hours lol...mister I got it my second try...
Me too.
To any Xbox watcher, this doesn't work anymore until hannit or olberic level 25!
Ty đ is there anything you recommend I look into before starting the game?
@@TRASH-zw7zm pick up the Therion early. Run to as many high level cities as you can. Save scum steal gear. Scholar is overpowered. Evasive maneuvers from scholar plus evil ward from cleric means running into high level dungeons, grabbing loot then fast traveling out. Check CZcams for secondary class locations and get them after you have a party of 4. There's no enemies in the shrines they're in but you'll have to hoof it there from town. Second class means more abilities and weapons to break shields. Path actions don't work if it's your secondary class. Example would be you can't steal if their from town npc if theif is your secondary class. Tressa grow on trees money trick only works if Tressa is in party. Won't work if another character has the class skill
Is this only available in the demo?
Everything in the demo is exactly the same in the full version.
is this only in the demo
Nope, the demo is technically the full first chapter set, no restrictions or weird changes not in the main game.
Took about 15 mins to get the axe. Only had H'aanit and Therion.
Nice work!
I am level 25 in the game so is it still worth it
Iâm still using it at lv55, if thatâs anything to go by.
Anamana! Wow thanks
Gotta be level 25 to challenge her now smh
Nah, that's just Olberic. Only H'aanit can challenge at any level.
Yea I figured it out. Thx for the reply tho
Holy fuck I got it on my sixth try
Hell yeah! Nice work!
If only I had the same luck with Caits haha
I've only seen three so far, I need that RNG god blessing!
it looks like this got patched or changed with the current retail, because with olbric I can't attack her until im lvl 25...
Yeah use ha'annit its alot easier
@@legendarygamer1779 I did, she hits like a truck when shields are broken
Im my game says that I have to be in level 25??? To be able to provoke herđ
Because youâre using Olberic most likely. Hâaanit can do it without level cap, while Olberic does.
Am I screwed if I did alfyns story before?
You should be able to do it once you have side quests pop up in Alfyns town after doing his chapter 1 story.
You can always return to the town once you have Either H'aanit, or Olberic and Therion. You can push the world map on the menu, and fast travel to any towns you have visited. :)
Is this patched? Iâve only been trying 10 minutes but it seems like it might be patched
Oh that's easy! Just save scum until you get lucky. I always abuse that feature so I don't pay the risk. However It does get tedious after awhile.
lol its hard to many reset
It can definitely take a lot of resets for some items. đ€
How'd you get it on try 2
Luck, you can also raise the % by scrutinizing or inquiring NPCs in town that have stealing advice.
Anamana! It doesn't work here, and its still 3%, my thief is Atleast 35
Those advices are in multiple towns and it was 3% for me too. Just follow the guide and youâll eventually get it. Itâs based on luck and random.
Anamana! What do you mean specifically the guide, I have all the characters, do I need to do something specific
In the guide (this video) I mention saving the game and reloading when you fail 5 times. Then you can keep trying and reloading until you get the item.
Why do people savescum when you can just buy rep back? Getting money isn't that hard
Not true. Not everything is 100% to steal in his town.
During Chapter 1 it is. Outside of that, itâs different. As in, when doing his story mission of Chapter 1. All path actions are 100% chance in Chapter 1 for each character.
Not great advice i tried 15 times and it cost me 6 grand :/
It shouldnât cost you anything if youâre using saves correctly.
