Clockwork Scythe comes from Sariel in the Chamber of Becoming, Axatana is found in the City, Obsidian Hammer is earned in Obsidianite Mines, and Black Needle drops after the Sester’s Gate/Sester’s Bastion boss chain.
These four weapons in Mortal Shell 2 are tied to progression rather than loose overworld pickups. Reaching the surrounding area is only part of the hunt; you must finish the associated route, mechanic, or encounter to claim each weapon.
Four weapon locations at a glance
| Weapon | Where to get it |
|---|---|
| Clockwork Scythe | Defeat Sariel in the final room of the Chamber of Becoming. |
| Axatana | Find it in the City. |
| Obsidian Hammer | Defeat Prophet of Profane Infinities in the lower Obsidianite Mines. |
| Black Needle | Defeat Twin Sesters and Stray Sesters in Sester’s Bastion. |
Mortal Shell 2 has additional primary weapons and sidearms, so this is not a full arsenal checklist. It covers only the four weapons named above.
Preparing for the Mammon weapon hunt
Plan around Mammon-region dungeons and beacon routes. Some of these weapons are boss rewards, while Axatana is found in the City.
Keep your coins for improving weapons and tar stones instead of spending them on Merrick’s rough-location maps.
Obsidian Hammer route through the mines
Choose a mine approach
From Outskirts of Mammon, travel west to the quarry and drop through its large pool, or enter through Gate of Mammon, cross the collapsed mine, and ride the elevator toward Deserted Slums.
Descend through Obsidianite Mines
Continue downward rather than treating the upper mine floors as the destination.
Reach the lowest boss arena
Follow the dungeon to its lower area and prepare for Prophet of Profane Infinities.
Defeat the Prophet
Kill Prophet of Profane Infinities to earn the Obsidian Hammer.
Getting Axatana from the City
Take the tower-bound jump gate
Drop from the ledge past the Rollerball, turn left instead of entering the abbey, and use the jump gate to cross the ravine.
Cross Forgotten Tower
Use the next jump gate to reach the opposite side, then continue through the tower’s lower section.
Raise the metal gate
Step onto the floor switch beside the metal door to open the route into the weapon room.
Clear the weapon room
Axatana is found in the City, not on the central weapon display in the lower Forgotten Tower weapon room.
Key Axatana and Axe & Dagger are separate primary weapons. The City is where Axatana is found, not the Forgotten Tower route or the location associated with the Axe & Dagger set.
Black Needle route through Sester’s Bastion
Cleanse Sester’s Gate Beacon
Reach the beacon through Sester’s Refuge, cleanse it, and use the newly available lift to descend into Sester’s Bastion.
Create the first platforms
Shoot the dungeon’s bells with your sidearm to make ledges and connecting platforms appear.
Complete the bell bridge
Shoot the two bells positioned along the sides, then find the low bell hidden beneath the bridge to complete the crossing.
Defeat Twin Sesters
In the arena, kill both Sesters while accounting for the melee fighter and the ranged bow wielder.
Defeat Stray Sesters
Finish the following Stray Sesters encounter to receive Black Needle; Sester’s Crest is also awarded and can be traded for 3,000 gold.
Clockwork Scythe route through Chamber of Becoming
Meet Sariel near Silent Steps
Travel southeast from Silent Steps Beacon and complete the earlier field encounter with Sariel.
Follow the fortress route
Use the teleport gate, climb the long stairway past the rolling spiked enemy, and continue toward the large statue.
Enter Chamber of Becoming
Look behind and below the statue for the dungeon entrance, then pursue Sariel into the final room.
Destroy the revival markers
Break the upright objects spaced around the final arena when they activate so Sariel cannot resurrect.
Finish Sariel inside the dungeon
Complete the final-room fight, view Sariel’s memory, and collect the Clockwork Scythe from beside him in the chamber.
Mistakes that block these weapon pickups
For Axatana, Forgotten Tower is the wrong destination because the weapon is found in the City. Inside Sester’s Bastion, missing the low bell beneath the bridge prevents the platforms from joining, and defeating Twin Sesters is not the end—remain in the arena for Stray Sesters.
Clearing only the upper Obsidianite Mines will not produce the hammer, so keep descending until you reach the Prophet of Profane Infinities arena. Likewise, Sariel’s field encounter is only the start of his chain: pursue him into the Chamber of Becoming and finish the fight in its final room.
