paultsmith1980 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 It depends on when you actually go to speak to the Guard Captain. If it is after the Big Ship (Again names fails me) leaves, then he will be in the garrison, but before he will be in the Tavern as he has been ejected from the garrison. I will look to make a change to the guide.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIDQ Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Thank you so much for the road map and guide. It was legitimately helpful in getting my platinum with cutting down on unnecessary extra playthroughs, and I used the Rep Quests thread, too. I'd also thank the German guy who made the treasure maps, but I don't feel like making an account on a German message board just to say something in broken German. I would make a few points though: -The guide implies that the Dark Views trophy pops as soon as you go in the Nexus portal. It doesn't. You still have to fight your way through a building full of lectors and then exit onto the raised walkway before the trophy pops. -The map of the buried treasures only lists the optional buried treasures and not the two story-related treasures. However, you do need to also get the story-related treasures for the trophy to pop. I was kind of shocked and depressed when I dug up the last optional treasure and didn't get the trophy, worried that I either missed one or that the trophy glitched on me. I had no idea about the love quest later on, which did get the trophy to pop. -The guide says that to get the group training trophy, you have to be in the Order of the Holy Seal and wait until chapter 3. I have no idea how this conclusion was reached, because I was able to complete the group training the very first time I was let into the Order's guild hall, which is early in chapter 2. I hadn't even visited the Inner City yet. But these are all minor things. I think this is a quality guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggaloj Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Thanks for the guide. Really helped cutting down the time for the platinum. Just a quick note from my playthrough. I actually created a seperate save file before picking my guild on the first playthrough as opposed to doing that on my second playthrough. All I did was pick the evil choices after loading up that save and I got the evil ending. That saved me a ton of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOIR1013 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Thanks for the guide, this game has been kinda fun to play without any major challenges that can sometimes suck the fun out of playing. I should be getting my lovely platinum in no time! ...then on to Star Ocean, gods help me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eye Beams Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Arena Champion All enemies in the Arena Defeated During the last chapter you can speak to a NPC called ‘Gero’. He will allow you to register for a tournament.You have to beat five waves of enemies to complete the tournament. Your health does not replenish during rounds so be prepared to defend or roll out of the way, as if you are trying to get this trophy whilst simultaneously getting No Drugs you will not be able to use healing items.A really helpful tip would be to acquire the Holy Spear of Chiefs, which makes the Arena much easier; it is found inside a chest in the Tree of Life, but can only be opened after restoring Africa. No Drugs Game Finished without consuming any healing items. MISSABLE TROPHY This sounds a lot harder than it actually is especially if you are playing on easy difficulty. You can still heal yourself by sleeping or visiting a doctor, just do not use any healing items at all. I found it safer to just sell any I collected as soon as I could, just to avoid any risks. If you accidentally use a healing item, reload a previous save file and carry on from there.No mention of Blood Toll/Vortex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J50N Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Guys, i need help. I bought some sort of a ring that regenerates life, don't remember it's exact name (later i found 2 of them lol). I also used potions with mana to restore spell points. And trophy "No Drugs" didn't pop up. I am pretty sure that never used a healing potions or meal, water from fountains. Also i used Blood Toll/Vortex as quick spells but as it says few pages earlier it's ok. What of all things i used to heal / restore mana could spoil my trophy "No Drugs" ? thank you.

Eye Beams Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Maybe you used a consumable at the beginning and forgot? Fountains restore mental energy and are safe. The trophy only refers to HP. If this was your first run, you have another chance during the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J50N Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I am sure that didn't use any consumables. I think that Ring of Life killed my trophy Ж) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eye Beams Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) I've read two sources (both XB360...) that say the Ring of Life has no affect on the trophy. But then again, it could be the mana potion; it may be considered a "healing" item. I wish someone would test this by: Not using any consumables up to the point-of-no-return (or even during the final battle). Save. Using mental energy potion. Continue to the final battle. Check for ding at credits. If nothing, reload and report here. Edited December 24, 2011 by Eye Beams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J50N Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I will try that. Coz i'm on my 2nd playthrough. If mana potions can't be used that's explains my trophy stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThuiSSiE Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I will try that. Coz i'm on my 2nd playthrough. If mana potions can't be used that's explains my trophy stuck. Mana potions kill the Hard Drug trophy. I used manapotions during my first run and the trophy didnt pop. Doin second run now without healing/mana.

TugaCruz Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 But to win these trophy we cannot use Blood Tool ? Does this count as a healing item ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 But to win these trophy we cannot use Blood Tool ? Does this count as a healing item ? While I'm sure you don't care about this two months later, you can use either of the Blood spells (Toll and Vortex), and still get No Drugs. This guide was immensely helpful. I don't know if the author still looks at this, but I would mention a couple of things: 1) There is absolutely an autosave feature. I don't know why the guide says there isn't. 2) If you make a save before choosing a guild, you can save a bit of time. Thanks for the help for a really shitty game, though. This plat would be so much harder without a guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
