How to Get the Canopic Jar in Final Fantasy 12

In Final Fantasy 12, the Canopic Jar is a Grimoire that increases the frequency and quality of loot the monsters in the game drop when defeated. Better loot sells for more money, so the earlier you can get these Grimoires, the better. The Canopic Jar is the final Grimoire you can unlock in Final Fantasy 12. It allows all monsters (instead of just rare monsters) to drop the precious arcana, which can be sold to unlock high arcana and ultimately the Tournesol, the strongest two-handed sword in the game.

Instructions

- 1
  Complete the Crime and Punishment hunt to acquire the Horakhty's Flame. Accept the quest, then go to the Garamsythe Waterway. Before hunting for the Orthros, the beast you must destroy to complete the quest, remove all men from your party. The Orthros will not fight you if you have any male characters in your party. Find and defeat Orthros in the Southern Sluiceway in the Garamsythe Waterway and return to the Guild to collect your prize.
- 2
  Complete the Paradise Risen quest to obtain the Phobos Glaze. Accept the quest, then go to the Giza Plains. To reach the area where you can fight the Gil Snapper, the beast you must destroy in this quest, you must first create a bridge to the east portion of the Giza Plains. To do this, you must cut down six trees in the surrounding areas. When you create the bridge, cross into the new section of land. Exit the screen and return until the rain is pouring heavily, then fight the Gil Snapper (a giant turtle-like creature). Defeat the Gil Snapper and return to the Guild for your reward.
- 3
  Acquire the Deimos Clay by completing the Paramina Run quest. Accept the quest as you have the other two quests and go to the Paramina rift. Locate the Trickster and defeat it as quickly as possible. Save your Quickenings for the end of this battle when the Trickster is down to about a quarter of its HP. This will prevent it from using the Paling, a strong defensive spell. Get the Deimos Clay from Montblanc at the Guild.
- 4
  Sell the Deimos Clay, Phobos Glaze and Horakhty's Flame to a vendor at the Bazaar. The Morbid Urn will appear for purchase once you have sold these items. Purchase the Morbid Urn for 250,000 gil. The Morbid Urn turns out to be the Canopic Jar.
