You can actually get the extra Z-bo AND a Muramasa in that same chest. The fastest way to reload to check for it is: First become a Templar so the Rapax don't keep attacking. Then go to the ramp that goes all the way to the Zoo (whose entrance is next to the Throne Room) SAVE before you ever enter the Upstairs. My fastest route here is Prince's bed--grab King's Apt Key--get Queen's Deposit Slip--get Queen's Key--open chest. If it's not there, reload the save where you have never entered Upstairs, and try again.

Light Sword is less than 5% occurance in both the Bayjin Chest and as a drop from the Buccies, so it may take a lot of reloading. It's easier with the Buccies, just reload to before fighting them. The chest is the one in the hut with one Sentry, and my fave route is from the Swamp, Right when exiting the tunnel, then up the cliff once you get past the Sprites (don't have to fight them). There's a spur with some fallen boulders and then a draw, go up the draw and you should come out right even with the hut in question.
More Weapons:

Cane of Corpus: PP or Kill the Don
Estoc de Olivia: PP or Kill Al-Adryian (but not until you got the Dark Nectar)--he also drops Maiden Head, Ripper, and Divinemail u and l.
There's another Ripper in the Mountain Wilderness "Retro" Dungeon--which also has:
Flame Staff, Sword of Fire, Amulet of Nebdar (not in W-7; very nice esp for a Caster or Faerie Ninja) and a number of others.

Bloodlust is quite powerful for how early you can get it, it's in Antone's bank vault.
Bushido drops from Raven Rapax, that's a real quick reload-to-try-again sequence. There's another Bushido and a Vulcan Hammer in Ferro's locker, just give him the Pickled Trynnie from the kitchen for the key.
Staff of Doom is in the Waterfall in the Mountain Wilderness. (and Enchanted Wakizashi)
The Mauler, Dread Spear, Siege Arbalest can all be bought from Ferro.
