Phantom Blade Zero items and where to find them
By the Blade Zero Wiki editors
Updated
Phantom Blade Zero items cover 165 named entries in six groups: 78 story items, 72 materials, 8 treasures, 4 accessory fragments, 2 medicines and 1 other item. Story items follow the main story and cannot be sold, materials combine into passive buffs, and treasures trade with Quick Hand Zhang.
How Many Phantom Blade Zero Items Are There?
Two lists hold the count and the two disagree: the Game8 item list totals 89 entries, the Fextralife fan wiki item list totals 87, and 11 names sit on both pages, which leaves 165 distinct Phantom Blade Zero items for the tables here.
Read the totals as two snapshots taken on the same day rather than one agreed figure. Each page counts only what it has published, so a name that one list carries and the other skips still earns a row below; the last column says which page names it, and that gap is why the Phantom Blade Zero items tables merge both lists instead of copying one.
the gamesdb.gg item database splits the same field differently, into accessories, medicines, upgrade materials, Memory Flowers, books, treasures, fragments, story items and outfits, and the medicine page and Memory Flower page follow those groups.

| Weapons and Phantom Edges in the game | 30+ weapons, 20+ Phantom Edges | Steam store page feature list | 2026-11-02 |
Which Phantom Blade Zero Items Categories Do the Sources Use?
Six categories carry every name: story items, materials, treasures, accessory fragments, medicines and one other item. Each has a stated role, and that role is what separates a row that stays in the bag from a row that goes straight to Quick Hand Zhang.
Story items and materials make up 150 of the 165 rows, which is why the two tables below run long while the fragment, treasure and medicine rows fit on one screen. The categories come from the source pages, not from the order of this guide, and the category column is the one detail every Phantom Blade Zero items row shares.
| Category | Entries | What the source says | Listed by |
|---|---|---|---|
| Story items | 78 | Key items from the main story that cannot be sold or discarded | Game8 |
| Materials | 72 | Lootable items combined to give passive buffs once the set is complete | Fextralife fan wiki |
| Treasures | 8 | Valuable items hidden around each area, traded with Quick Hand Zhang | Game8 and Fextralife |
| Accessory fragments | 4 | Pieces that become a complete accessory once every fragment is collected | Game8 |
| Medicines | 2 | Healing Gourd and Focus Pill, both listed as consumables | Fextralife fan wiki |
| Other items | 1 | Traversal Talisman, outside the other categories | Game8 and Fextralife |
| Total | 165 | One row per distinct name across both lists | Both lists |
Which Items Does the Story Item Table Cover?
The story item table holds 78 names, and the ten that the Fextralife fan wiki item list names all appear in the longer the Game8 item list. Every row there is a key item handed over by the main story, which is why the source says those names cannot be sold or discarded once you hold them.
Keys and cranks dominate the list because doors and lifts need them: Cell Key, Gate Keys, Courtyard Keys and the various Crank items all point at a lock somewhere in the world. The rest are the Phantom Blade Zero items the story hands to Soul, from Prayer Beads to Yu'er's Life-Saving Pill.

Where Do You Get Materials in Phantom Blade Zero?
Materials are lootable pickups rather than story handouts, and the source calls them upgrade items that combine to give passive buffs once every required piece is collected. All 72 names here come from the Fextralife fan wiki item list; Game8 has no materials category, so no second count exists for them.
The names sort themselves by craft: forged, polished and flawless metal lines sit beside timber, charcoal and solvent lines, and the ambers, crystals, gears and talismans close the list. Two groups inside these Phantom Blade Zero items lists already have pages of their own, so start with the Blackstone chain and the Sha-Chi Amber chain if a set stalls.

What Are Treasures, Fragments and Medicine Items?
Treasures are valuable items hidden around each area and traded with Quick Hand Zhang; accessory fragments only become a complete accessory once every required piece is collected; the two medicine rows are consumables. That is 15 names in all, drawn from both lists, with a dash wherever a page gives no detail.
Four fragment rows build two accessories, and the treasure rows split by source: six come from Game8, two from the fan wiki. The two medicines, Healing Gourd and Focus Pill, are the only Phantom Blade Zero items in this table you drink rather than hand over.

Where Do You Trade Treasures and Find Phantom Blade Zero Items?
Treasures go to Quick Hand Zhang, and the interactive map is the location tool the item pages point at. Neither list gives a coordinate, so the map and the locations page carry that half of the job, while the NPC page covers which character takes what.
Story items need no vendor at all: the walkthrough hands them over as the chapters pass, and each name stops mattering once the door it opens is behind you. Fragments behave like a set rather than a purchase, so check the accessories page before you assume one is missing; that is the half of the Phantom Blade Zero items hunt a name list cannot do on its own.
Which Other Items Come With the Game?
Outside the two lists, the Steam store page counts over 30 primary weapons and more than 20 unique Phantom Edges taken from fallen foes, and the Digital Deluxe Edition adds the Wulin Legend and Blood-Steel Form outfits, a digital art book and a digital soundtrack. Those are equipment and edition extras, not pickups.
The weapon side has its own pages, so the weapons list and the Phantom Edges list are the place to look for stats and unlock conditions. The Deluxe Edition page covers what the paid version adds on top of the base game.
Which Pages Cover Phantom Blade Zero Items in More Detail?
Five narrow pages take single groups further than this list can: the medicine page for healing items, Memory Flowers for the collectable blooms, accessories for what the fragments build, plus the Blackstone and Sha-Chi Amber pages for the two material chains.
Use this page to identify a name and the narrow pages to finish the job. Nothing on those pages repeats a row from the Phantom Blade Zero items tables above; they cover the mechanics, sources and upgrade steps that a plain list of names cannot hold.
What Is the Best Way to Read This List?
Sort by role first and by name second. A key item that cannot be sold is a different object from a material that waits for its set or a treasure that wants a vendor, and the category column already tells you which of those three you are holding.
Our take: the category is the only detail worth memorising, because it decides what you do next. Story items are the ones to stop worrying about once used, materials are the ones to check against a set, and treasures are the ones to carry back to Quick Hand Zhang instead of hoarding.
Frequently asked questions
How many Phantom Blade Zero items are there?
The two published lists hold 89 and 87 entries, and 11 names appear on both, which leaves 165 distinct Phantom Blade Zero items collected in the tables on this page. The split is 78 story items, 72 materials, 8 treasures, 4 accessory fragments, 2 medicines and 1 other item.
Where do you find Phantom Blade Zero items?
Treasures are hidden around each area and an interactive map is the location tool the item pages point at, while story items arrive as the main story moves forward. No published Phantom Blade Zero items list gives per-item coordinates, so no row here invents one.
Can you sell story items?
No. The source says story items are key items obtained through the main story and that they cannot be sold or discarded, which is why 78 of the rows are one-way pickups. Spend them on the door or lift they belong to and stop carrying them.
Which items can be combined?
Materials combine into passive buffs once every required piece of a set has been collected, and accessory fragments combine into a complete accessory once all of their fragments are in hand. Treasures follow neither rule, because their use is a trade.
What are treasures used for in Phantom Blade Zero?
Treasures are valuable items hidden around each area that you can trade with Quick Hand Zhang. Eight treasure rows appear in the tables, six from Game8 and two from the Fextralife fan wiki, and the six Game8 rows all name Quick Hand Zhang as the trade.
Does this list cover weapons and Phantom Edges?
No. The Steam store page counts over 30 primary weapons and more than 20 unique Phantom Edges, and those have their own pages for stats and unlock conditions. This page stays on story items, materials, treasures, fragments, medicines and the single other item.
Which Phantom Blade Zero items should I track first?
Start with the materials and fragments, because both wait on a full set and a single missing piece blocks the reward. Story items come second: they cannot be lost, so there is no reason to add them to a checklist of Phantom Blade Zero items before the sets are finished.
