Tales of Hearts R PS Vita platinum guide

Tales of Hearts R

PS Vita

Prepare Kor and Kohaku’s platinum throughout the journey: record monsters, explore detours and build the required pairs’ bonds. Keep a save before Creed. Manic and Unknown reward separate final-boss victories, while the arena and bonus dungeon have their own preparation.

40 trophies on the Western PS Vita edition of Tales of Hearts R, the handheld remake of Tales of Hearts. No DS or home-console edition is needed.

  • Final difficulty: Manic and Unknown do not stack: two separate victories.
  • Collections: 76 Namcoins to hand to Citrine.
  • Online: Story, arena and counters are single-player.

Start Citrine’s collection early

In Cynos, speak to Citrine to start tracking the Namcoin side quest. When leaving a town, sweep map markers and record coins separately; these are different collections. Check chests and new enemies before leaving a dungeon. Use a Magic Lens on rare encounters and bosses you cannot freely refight.

  • Turn in the full collection to Citrine rather than stopping after an early reward.

Practice Counter, Chase and Spiria in the story

When an enemy enrages, wait for the cue and time your guard to counter. Then practice Chase Link and Cross Chase on enemies that can survive more hits. For the 200-hit combo, try Hisui’s Swarm of Thrushes, alternating volleys with ally follow-ups before the link expires.

  • From the middle of the game, use Spiria Drive regularly: Spiria Superior requires 50 uses.

Build the seven pairs and cooking progress

Rotate the party while tracking the trophy pairs, especially Kor with Kohaku, Beryl and Chalcedony, and Gall with Ines and Kunzite. Watch available skits, cook between fights and check the bond progress instead of running one lineup throughout the story. Buy new recipes when a shop offers them.

  • Track Kohaku–Hisui and Kohaku–Beryl as well.

Finish the arena and bonus dungeon

Update gear and party tactics before optional fights. In the arena, check both solo and team rounds, and track Hubert and Pascal’s victory separately. In the bonus dungeon, work toward Faldealmeus and gain experience with everyone. Maxing Kor alone does not satisfy the all-character level trophy.

  • Before another run, review incomplete monster, marker and item records.

Reload before Creed for Manic and Unknown

Preserve the slot before the final fight and your first clear data. When Manic and Unknown become available, select one for the final battle, verify the unlock, then repeat on the other. If you start New Game Plus, use the Grade Shop to carry useful progress and speed up underlevelled characters.

  • Check Manic Clearance and Unknown Clearance separately; the latter does not award the former.

Trophies to watch

200-Hit Combo

Hit after hit after hit after hit after hit! You lay it on so thick and fast, the enemy doesn't stand a chance!

Extend Hisui’s combo with Chase and support before the target falls.

Namcoin Classic Collection

You've collected every single Namcoin out there. Citrine is so happy she could die! Just don't go losing them before you hand them over to her, you hear?

Track 76 Namcoins by location and give them to Citrine.

Unknown Clearance

Congratulations! You cleared the game at Unknown—the most hardcore difficulty level of all! There's not an enemy out there you can't take to pieces with ease!

Save before the boss and verify the two difficulties separately.

Arena Cleaner

Congratulations! You've sliced and diced your way through the arena, both alone and with a party by your side! This glorious achievement will surely stand unchallenged for millenia! Oh, uh. Don't look now, but that guy's staring at you kind of angrily.

Complete both solo and party rounds.

Frequently asked questions

Must I replay the whole story on both difficulties?

The trophy guide confirms the final boss suffices on each difficulty once the settings are available. Keep a pre-fight save.

How many Namcoins do I need?

The Vita walkthrough counts 76. Use a location checklist and finish the turn-in with Citrine.

Can I focus only on Kor’s bonds?

No. The list also includes pairs such as Ines–Gall and Kohaku–Beryl, so plan different parties and conversations.
