AI Limit All Weapon Locations

AI Limit has a total of 32 weapons to collect for the Arsenal trophy & achievement. Weapons are obtained by picking them up from the environment, purchased from shops, defeating some enemies or bosses, and trading some boss Nuclei to Assis. Obtaining all weapons requires playing into NG+, as two of the weapons from Assis are traded with the same boss Nucleus, so you need to defeat the boss (Ursula) again in NG+ to receive a second to trade for the other.

DO NOT SELL ANY NUCLEI until you know you have all items required to trade for them, as you can’t get them back after selling and would need to obtain them again in another playthrough. You CAN equip Nuclei in your accessory slot until you want to trade them, as this doesn’t consume them.

Weapons can be sold, but it is recommended not to sell any aside from duplicates so that you can track which you have already obtained.

Obtaining all weapons is required for the trophy/achievement Arsenal (obtain all weapons).

For trading Nuclei you will encounter Assis early in the story, then he will move to the Temporary Campsite and stay there for the rest of the game, so you can return to him there at any time.
