The Moonlight Sword is a classic weapon that has always been a part of every FromSoft game, whether the Souls or the Armored Core games. And AC6 is no exception to that trend. Sure enough, you can also find the Moonlight Sword in Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.
To acquire the Moonlight Sword in Armored Core 6, you must play through the “Reach the Coral Convergence” mission in Chapter 4. You will come across a broken bridge. The Moonlight Sword is hidden inside a chest at the bottom left side of the bridge. Loot it and complete the mission to unlock the weapon.
Let’s discuss the process of acquiring the Moonlight Sword in AC6 in more detail and look at the weapon part’s stats.
Finding the Moonlight Sword in Armored Core 6
You must first unlock the “Reach the Coral Convergence” mission in Chapter 4 to find the Moonlight Sword in AC6. Start playing the mission and fighting off ACs and generic mechs until you reach a broken bridge.
Once you reach the bridge, don’t just drop down, as you’ll have to fight a lot of spinny enemies. Instead, go to the end of the bridge and then do a drop attack on the few unsuspecting enemies guarding the chest.
Deal with the enemies and then loot the chest to acquire the Moonlight Sword weapon part. You got the part, but it doesn’t end here. You have to finish the mission to obtain the part you just looted. Dying would mean that you’ll have to do it all over again.
