10,000 points and redeem the points for Robe Of Lords by talking to
the Mene the moogle
The second way is to go through the Stellazzio: Zodiac Coins sidequest.
Give the 12th coin to Queen Stella and you will recieve a Robe Of Lords
as your reward
The third way is to beat Hades and gain access to the Legendary Synthesis
Shop. You must have a White Robe, a Black Robe and 30,000 Gil to get
a Robe Of Lords.
The fourth way is to steal using Zidane. Bosses like Ozma and Hades
carry a Robe Of Lords. Equip Zidane's Master Thief ability, which can
be learned from using Thief Gloves (which can be bought in Treno's Auction
House) and Bandit ability, which could be learn from Mythril Dagger.
Equip the N-Kai Armlet to ensure that Zidane has a good chance of stealing
successfully.

Just buy the Magic Finger from the Treno auction and give it to the
old man in the Dargeleo Library. Sell the rare items you bought from
the auction to the people of Treno.
Getting Excalibur 2:
Get to the final area and beat hades under 12 hours. After that, search
the right pillar in the Memory Room.
Alternate Ending
You have to finish the Stellazzio (Zodiac) Quest and keep "Shina's
Hammer", which you find in the room after fighting Lich on disk
