    Although the trophy description tells you that you must collect all unique weapons, it fails to tell you that shields are also included as a requirement (possibly because shields are stored in the weapons tab) any way here is a comprehensive list of all weapons and shields and where you can obtain them.

    Regular Items

    Adjudicator's Shield

    World 4-1 - After defeating Vanguard there is a mostly demolished stone building, head through the fog gate and up some steps to take on two silver skeletons, just beside them is an opening with the Adjudicator's Shield being guarded by a Dual-Katana Wielding Black Skeleton.

    Baby's Nail

    a) World 3-1 - This is best obtained DURING the Fool's Idol boss fight, you should see it sitting behind an altar, be sure to pick it up before defeating the boss as it is exceptionally difficult to collect afterwards.

    b) Kill Sage Freke in the Nexus after rescuing him from the Tower of Latria.

    Blind

    World 5-2 - Dropped after defeating Selen Vinland's Black Phantom, she waits in the swamp just to the right after you enter the first fog gate of 5-2. Be cautious when fighting her as her swords (Blind's) special ability allows it to ignore shields. Requires Pure Black World Tendency.

    Bramd

    World 5-3/4 - Dropped after defeating Garl Vinland's Black Phantom. Garl will spawn in the same place he stood while trying to guard the demon Maiden Astrea after having defeated her and returning to the world. A difficult foe, a good weapon to use against him is the Large Sword of Moonlight or Blind as both ignore his shield, just be sure to avoid his massive swings. Pure White World Tendency required.

    Dark Silver Shield

    World 5-3 - Obtained by defeating Garl Vinland during the Maiden Astrea boss fight in the Valley of Defilement, same tips for defeating him stand.

    Demonbrandt

    World 1-1 - To get this weapon you must first complete the Ostrava of Boleteria questline by rescuing him in all three sections of World 1. For the first section prior to defeating Phalanx he will be upon a higher ledge surrounded by Dredgelings, you must defeat them all and he will jump down giving you his thanks. For 1-2 you will see Ostrava behind some bars in the first room you enter asking for your assistance, to do so run to the first tower of the bridge guarded by the Red Dragon and once there take the stairs down to the tunnel under the bridge, rather than running forwards towards the next tower in the tunnel, head in the other direction, eventually running into Ostrava and saving him. Finally for 1-3 play through the area as normal, once you reach the other side of the gate closed off to you by a Fat Official you will see Ostrava on the other side being attacked by multiple enemies, quickly pull the lever beside you to open the gate and save him once more. If you successfully complete all these rescues when you enter the building where you face the final boss the False King, Ostrava will be waiting upon some steps, speak to him and he will give you the Mausoleum Key. With the key in hand head all the way back to 1-1 and head up to where you would have defeated your first Blue-Eye Knight surrounded by trebuchets. Through a tower on one of the ends of the castle wall you will come to a bridge with a Red-Eye Knight (spear) waiting for you, deal with him and head over the bridge and use your new key to open the large wooden doors, in here you will find Old King Doran guarding the sword you seek. You need not kill him, simply attack him until he has roughly 75% of his health and he will tell you he is impressed by your efforts and tells you he will allow you to take the sword, there you have it. NOTE - You must defeat the world section boss after freeing Ostrava in one visit to save the quests progress, if you go to the Nexus before defeating the boss he will need to be saved again. Alternatively you can get the key by killing Ostrava but I like the long way.

    Epee Rapier

    World 3-2/Nexus - During the events of 3-2 once you have released the large whatever the hell it is in the tower allowing you access to the top, rather than climbing to the top, head to the base of the tower instead where you will find an area with multiple Centipede-Men and bodies with items on the, on one of these bodies you will find the weapon. Alternatively you can get this weapon by killing Mephistopheles, she will appear once you have rescued Silent Chief Yurt in 3-2 and either killed him immediately or in the Nexus (You must have Pure Black Character Tendency to make her appear in the Nexus)

    Geri's Stiletto

    World 3-1 - Once you have made your way through the prison and you arrive at the church ready to head through the fog gate to face the Fool's Idol boss turn back and instead head up the tower on your left-hand side. At the top of the tower head along the walkway and through a door where you will find a Dredgeling that begs you not to kill him (I suggest you do so or he will revive the boss over and over until he is dead) just next to him on the wall is a set of keys you can collect. With the keys in hand run all the way back to where Sage Freke is locked in a jail cell and set him free, he will give you the weapon as thanks.

    Hiltless

    World 4-1 - Dropped by Satsuki's Black Phantom. He will be waiting for you immediately as you arrive into the Shrine of Storms, not a difficult battle if you can avoid being hit. Requires Pure Black World Tendency.

    Hand's of God

    World 2-1/2/Nexus - These can be obtained via one of two ways. For the first either before you enter the fog gate to defeat Flamelurker or afterwards arriving at his Archstone, turn the other way and head back through the tunnel, you will come upon a body with an item on it, beware as getting close will call up three Rock Worms, once they are dispatched you can claim the weapon. The second method is by killing either Ed in 2-1 or by killing Boldwin in the Nexus though this is highly inadvisable as they are necessary NPCs.

    Istarelle

    World 5-1 - After passing through a fog gate you will enter onto a platform with plague rats waiting to attack you, once they are gone you are able to continue along a bridge with a Giant Depraved One waiting for you at the other end, at the midsection of this bridge will be a ladder. Climb up the ladder and work your way up the platforms until you finally arrive at the top where you will see the weapon atop a mound guarded by three Giant Depraved Ones, try to take them down one at a time (enchanted weapon/turpentine works wonders) and claim the weapon. Requires Pure White World Tendency for the ladder to appear.

    Dragon Bone Smasher (Keel Smasher)

    World 2-3 - As you head in to face the Dragon God boss, at the end of the walkway you have two paths, right to begin the boss battle and left. Go left and you will find the weapon embedded in the ground. Requires Pure White World Tendency to gain access to otherwise the left-hand path will be blocked with rubble you cannot remove.

    Kris Blade (Kris Knife)

    World 2-1 - Just before you take the lift down to face the Armoured Spider look around the room and you should find a wooden ramp you can walk up, follow the platforms around and you will find the weapon.

    Large Brushwood Shield

    World 1-1 - At the very beginning of World 1 to the left along the bridge you begin on you can see some steps leading down with a gate, head through and along the cliffside up to a tower. Once at the tower be wary entering as Executioner Miralda is waiting for you. Once she is defeated enter the tower again and you will find a ladder, climb all the way down to find the Brushwood Armour Set along with the shield.

    Large Sword of Moonlight

    World 5-2 - Before entering the second fog gate for 5-2 head through the swamp to your left and you will reach some wooden platform steps you can climb to reach a high-up suspended walkway. Follow the walkway along until you come you a large pillar of slugs hanging from the ceiling. Attack the slugs with your weapon and eventually they will all fall to the ground below. Besides where the slugs once hung from the ceiling there will be some platforms you can use to aid you taking a shortcut back to ground level, once back on the ground head in to where the slugs all fell and destroy them all. In the centre of a dirt mound the sword will be waiting for you.

    Magic Sword 'Makoto'

    World 4-2 - In the area where you encounter the first Reaper to the left/right sides of the altar he sits are doorways, head through to find that foll Patches. Speak with Patches and he tells you of a treasure he can see below and insists you look for yourself, as soon as you do Patches will kick you down the hole. After the small scene you will be able to pick up the weapon. Requires Pure White World Tendency to be able to reach the weapon (this area can be returned to later if you do not have PWWT at the time Patches sends you in)

    Penetrating Sword

    World 1-3 - Starting from the Penetrator's Archstone head into the first room, after taking out the three crossbow men you will encounter three Black Phantoms, one of them wields the Penetrator Sword and will drop it upon their defeat.

    Phosphorescent Pole

    World 3-1 - Dropped by Lord Rydell's Black Phantom, he will be waiting for you on the landing just besides his usual prison cell, he is an easy phantom to defeat. Requires Pure Black World Tendency.

    Rune Shield

    World 1-3 - Obtained by defeating Ostrava of Boleteria's Black Phantom. He will appear at the end of the long bridge on your approach to the False King. For a much easier time facing him it is recommended that you run back into the previous room to avoid falling off the bridge.

    Rune Sword

    World 1-3 - Dropped by Ostrava of Boleteria's Black Phantom along with the Rune Shield.

    Soulbrandt

    Old One - Obtained at the very end of the game after killing King Allant's deformed and mutated body. Be sure to claim it before ending the playthrough

    Stormruler

    World 4-3 - During the boss battle with the Storm King run down to a flat area you should see littered with large jagged rocks, at the base of one you will find the Stormruler. Note: As far as I am aware you cannot get Stormruler after the Storm King is defeated so do not miss your chance

    Talisman of Beasts

    World 2-2/Nexus - Two ways to pick this one up. First from the Armoured Spider Archstone head through the tunnel and turn right and follow this tunnel to the end. Once at the end you will see a very long drop ahead of you, navigate your way down using the wooden platforms and at about halfway you will see a small cliffside you can drop onto with a small tunnel opening, inside will be Scirvir the Wanderer's Black Phantom, defeat him and he will drop the Talisman, be very careful as he has extremely powerful fire magic. Secondly you can get this as a reward by taking part in Mephistopheles' questline assassinating multiple NPCs in the Nexus. Note method one requires Pure Black World Tendency while the second requires that you kill Silent Chief Yurt from 3-2 and have a Pure Black Character Tendency

    Tower Shield

    World 1-3 - Obtained by defeating one of the three Black Phantoms in the first room after defeating Penetrator along with the Penetrating Sword.

    CyberneticHFXIn Demon's Souls or Dark Souls, Shields are also Weapons because you can attack with them. This is a justified definition, if one thinks deep about it. Although, the people have to get to know about this fact's certainty.

    Thank you very much for your Trophy Solution, posted very soon as of now. I am finally also capable to submit such a kind of contribution, to this community in desperate need of filling. Thus, I will see how much I, can contribute of information for Demon's Souls' achievements.

    ClownTastic08The Northern Regalia is the only weapon you cannot make in your first playthrough, you only need to reach the Nexus once you enter you can use the duplication glitch to make everything you have left.

    You dont have to have all the items on your person at one time, you simply need to have owned them all on the one character at some point.
