The way I did this was a pain but it worked, it just takes a little more work and grinding. I always made sure I had at least one of every weapon at every general weapons store I came across which meant if I didn't have enough money I'd have to grind until I had enough to buy one of each per town PLUS the syntheses shop weapons I could get then and there. Second I went through the synthesis shops as I progressed through the game and wrote down what I needed for each weapon. Some weapons you have to go back on your own and get when you find what you need elsewhere that's why I had to make notes.
sooooooo, I'd go through the list and see how many of each weapon needed I already had in my inventory and wrote down how many more I needed without accidentally using the one I'm supposed to keep.
For Example:
-Weapon A requires 2 Mage Mashers
-Weapon B requires 1 Mage Masher and 1 Elixir
-I have 2 Mage Mashers in my inventory
*I need to buy (x2 Mage Mashers)
Some weapons become harder to find over time because the shops change after certain points in the game.
Tip#1 Visit Daguerro shops twice, I think the inventory changes after you go to Terra. Explore the whole place to access all the shops.
Tip#2 Do ALL the Chocobo side quest including the foaming water diving and the mountain cracks. There are a few weapons that you can only get by digging. I think there was one weapon for Freya.. Or was it Amarant? I think it was Dragon's Hair (or claws if it was Aamarant) that I knew I missed on a second run and I realized I had missed ONE foaming water location. It was there -_-
EDIT: Oh yeah, some times you have to synth weapons to get other weapons that's always fun to keep track of.
