Phantom Blade Zero Polished Broadplate Metal Locations

Every stack here was collected on PS5 for Map Master, and the Phantom Blade Zero weapon upgrade hub and region maps follow Soul’s other metals. Pangzhen & Mirage Estate is where the metal becomes common, with stacks of two to five spread across the city and the estate.

What Polished Broadplate Metal Upgrades in Phantom Blade Zero: Two-Handed Blades Past Level 10

Two-handed blades climb through three metals. The Broadplate Metal that covers levels 1 to 10 comes first, Polished Broadplate Metal handles the middle stretch, and the Flawless Broadplate Metal for the final levels finishes the climb toward the reported level 30 cap.

Only two-handed weapons use it, so one-handed and dual-wield blades need their own Polished metal. Sanguine Reach is the first great blade you’ll own, Hua, Deadly Betrothed drops the Scarlet Wraithblade, Jing Ye drops the Outlaw Warblade, and the Armybreaker is reported in Pangzhen, as the great blades that use Polished Broadplate compare.

Village of Lu Polished Broadplate Metal in Phantom Blade Zero: Attics and the River

Two of the village’s pairs wait in the river. The coffin pair and the chest pair are both in the water, so search the water itself, starting with the southeastern stretch, and the attic pair is tucked out of sight in the house reached through the eastern alley, easy to miss if you skip the upper floor.

Polished levels are reported to need Concentrated Solvent too, and the village’s stacks of that come in eights and nines, so the metal is the half that runs short. The Concentrated Solvent your refined levels also take covers where to find it. One high-level weapon is reported to refund 57 Polished metal and 19 Concentrated Solvent, three to one.

Pangzhen & Mirage Estate Polished Broadplate Metal: Stacks of Two to Five

Pangzhen is the region to stock up on it. Stacks run from two to five, bigger than any village find, and the Phantom Blade Zero Pangzhen & Mirage Estate map across the city and estate places each one, so a thorough sweep of the streets and estate rooms is how a great blade really climbs.

The Armybreaker is reported to come from Cavalrybane, the Shadow Warden Elite, in the same region, so a new two-handed blade and the metal to raise it arrive together. If you’ve been using Sanguine Reach, this is the moment to decide whether it keeps the metal or the new blade does.

How to Spend Polished Broadplate Metal in Phantom Blade Zero: Pick the Blade First

Choose your great blade before you cross level 10. Levels under 10 are reported to refund for free, but undoing anything past that is reported to need a Weapon Reforge Talisman for two-handed reverts, which Quick Hand Zhang sells for 2,000 Dust.

Don’t polish Sanguine Reach once you own a stronger blade. The Scarlet Wraithblade and the Outlaw Warblade both hit for 240 against Sanguine Reach’s 200, 20% more before a single upgrade, so put the village pairs into one of them and save Pangzhen’s bigger stacks for whichever blade you plan to finish with.
