PS5
AI Limit needs side-character planning before weapon and ending cleanup. Some interactions belong to bosses whose story steps cannot simply be repeated after victory, while weapons and spells can require later cycles. Track Shirley, Vikas, Stone, Feylia and Delpha from the first playthrough. This route protects quest progress and separates post-ending exploration from finishing quests already closed by story events.
Base-game roadmap for PS5. Individual stack requirements remain available on the game page.
- Required difficulty: The game has its standard difficulty; no higher-setting trophy applies.
- Missable trophies: Some NPC quests must be prepared before bosses and Path of Epitome.
- Online: The trophy requirements are offline.
Track quests from the first meeting
Exhaust dialogue when meeting a character and record the next location. Shirley and Vikas share an interaction at Cleansing Stairs; progressing Shirley alone can leave Vikas behind. Revisit active characters after major events and compare quest progress with received rewards rather than assuming a reunion completes every required step.
- Check Shirley and Vikas’s shared interaction before advancing.
Request allies before their associated bosses
Keep Stone’s Ore Bell, use it around Parish Station and accept his help against Winged Colosaint. Feylia needs earlier meetings before her Trial Hall assistance against Eunomia. Collecting items afterward does not restore a missed quest step once its boss is dead. Prepare both encounters before entering the arena.
- Complete ally dialogue before fighting the associated bosses.
Resolve Delpha’s samples before the ending choice
Soil Samples contribute to Branch growth and its trophy; check them before handing over ending-related objects. Ursula’s Living Seed is not a consequence-free delivery. Verify the intended preparation before giving it to Delpha and record the decision. Without a save copy, alternate outcomes require further cycles rather than a scene-selection shortcut.
- Finish Soil Samples before using the Living Seed for an ending.
Audit collections before Path of Epitome
Use Hagios Patir, Upper Level – Path of Epitome as the audit before quests close. Check weapons, spells, seals and repaired Branches, recording whether each gap depends on a quest or exploration. Post-ending movement cannot restore a vanished character. Preserve unique rewards even when your current build does not use them.
- Classify each gap as a quest, exploration item or ending reward.
Choose an ending and prepare the next cycle
Track the three endings and outstanding rewards. After the final boss, delaying the next cycle allows remaining item exploration, but does not reopen every side story. Audit weapons and spells before confirming the transition. In the next cycle prioritise alternative rewards rather than accidentally repeating the same choices.
- Check endings and missing rewards before starting another cycle.

Frequently asked questions
Does post-ending exploration recover every quest?
No. Available items can still be collected, but defeated bosses and story steps may close quests. Perform the main audit before Path of Epitome.
Can I see every ending without planning saves?
They are different outcomes. Without a pre-decision save, plan further cycles and rewards rather than expecting an ending-selection menu.
Is AI Limit also available on PS4?
This guide covers the verified PS5 edition. Do not add a PS4 stack or transfer procedure for a console version that does not exist.
