Trophy item Trophy items is a recurring set of items in the series . They are generally of little to no value in terms of gameplay , as they don ' t do anything on their own and are not usually used for anything . They exist to signify the player has overcome some of the most difficult trials in the game , usually by defeating a superboss . Trophy items generally show up the most with the superboss Omega , in the form of the Omega Badge . Trophy items were common before achievement systems were introduced . Appearances . " Final Fantasy III " . The Metal Card is acquired in the 3D remake after defeating the Iron Giant . " Final Fantasy V " . The Omega Badge is acquired after defeating the superboss Omega in the Interdimensional Rift , while the Dragon Seal is acquired after defeating the superboss Shinryu . An additional item , the Medal of Smiting , is acquired after completing the Cloister of the Dead in the Game Boy Advance and succeeding remakes . " Final Fantasy VI " . Only appearing in the Game Boy Advance , mobile and Steam releases , the Master ' s Crown is obtained after completing all 100 battles at the Soul Shrine . " Final Fantasy VII " . There are multiple unusable items , which are won as prizes at the Battle Square . Unlike most trophy items , they are more for comedy than for showing off . The Tissue , for instance , drops after almost every battle as a " consolation prize " . For beating the Special Match , the player can win the Masamune Blade ( a copy of Sephiroth ' s sword , not an actual weapon ) , the Combat Diary and Gambler written by Dio , and the Autograph . The Super Sweeper , Masamune Blade and 1 / 35 soldier can also be won at the Speed Square . The items dropped from the superbosses Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon actually serve a purpose , and thus are not just for show . Earth Harp from Emerald Weapon yields a set of Master Materia , and the Desert Rose Ruby Weapon drops yields a gold chocobo , respectively , if presented to the Kalm traveler . " Final Fantasy VIII " . While not an actual item , the Proof of Omega is obtained after defeating the superboss Omega Weapon in Ultimecia Castle , and will appear in the Tutorial section of the menu . Another type of menu trophy is the star that appears next to the Triple Triad section after the player has held every card . " Final Fantasy IX " . The Strategy Guide is obtained after defeating the superboss Ozma at the Chocobo ' s Air Garden . Rank S Award is obtained from Gilgamesh when the player attains the highest Treasure Hunter Rank . The Southern Tropical Outfits could also be seen as trophy items , as although usable as armor they have no stats , are are akin to joke equipment . " Final Fantasy X " . The Mark of Conquest is obtained by beating Nemesis in the Monster Arena . To unlock Nemesis , the player must capture 10 of each fiend found in Spira and defeat all other Original Species , Area Conquest , and Species Conquest monsters at least once . " Final Fantasy XII " . Centurio Hero ' s Badge is awarded for reaching the highest rank in Clan Centurio . To get the highest rank , the player must fill out the Sky Pirate ' s Den , complete all 45 hunts and have a million clan points . Although the Wyrmhero Blade is usable as a weapon , it is effectively more of a trophy item due to the player needing to have slain the game ' s superbosses to get it , and the weapon being slow to use albeit with high stats and combos . The trophy for completing the fishing minigame is also needed to make it . Some Rare Game yield trophies when slain . These enemies never spawn again after their trophy has been collected .
