PS3
The Historia Crux lets you correct mistakes without discarding your run. Finish the story first, then use seals to revisit only the branches you need. Maintain two counters: one for the 160 fragments and one for the paradox endings. The latter is only complete once you see the secret ending.
The 32-trophy PS3 base list: fragments, endings and local combat. Downloadable stories are not needed.
- Structure: The story can be replayed through the Historia Crux; fragments are local.
- Endings: Eight paradox endings plus the secret ending tied to 160 fragments.
- Difficulty: Defeat Raspatil on Normal for Fair Fighter.
Open the eras and keep the seals
Whenever you enter a new era, walk map edges and revisit branches marked incomplete. This pays off when a fragment checks full map completion. Collect the seals that let you close time gates. At undated Neo Bodhum, accept the offered world to record the first paradox ending; you can then continue the main route.
- Record the exact era as well as the area name, since locations recur.
Claim Paradox Scope after the credits
Return to the Chocobo Girl in Serendipity for Paradox Scope. Close the gate for the scene you want to replay to rewind that era’s events. Check the setting before entering combat: some branches require the skill on, while others require it off for part of the sequence. Watch the ending through the return to the timeline and record its fragment.
- Rewind only the branch location rather than resetting the whole run.
Work from the 160-fragment log
Complete the categories that remain open, especially era maps and bestiary entries. In the Archylte Steppe, use the weather to find the four targets Immortal, Long Gui, Ochu and Yomi. Alternate those fights with Serendipity cleanup: the lucky coin from the slots is a fragment, while the casino winnings trophy is a separate objective.
- For each incomplete category, inspect the era entry before returning to combat.
Fight Raspatil on Normal
Battle Mania, earned after the map work, makes Raspatil’s encounter easier to find. Look for the rare-monster void near the stairs to the beach in Oerba 400 AF. Set Normal before fighting, bring Wound Potions and prepare a supporting monster. Alternate defensive and healing paradigms with stagger damage instead of letting the party collapse while forcing an attack switch.
- Double-check Normal in the menu; an Easy win does not count.
Replay the finale with every fragment
Once you have all 160 fragments, return to the final fight with Paradox Scope enabled to see the secret ending. During cleanup, also aim for a five-star Chronosavior result: prepare setups to remove the supporting enemies and close out the main target. The secret scene and score are separate, so check both trophies after returning to the timeline.
- Complete the paradox endings before shelving the save.

Frequently asked questions
Can I change difficulty after the story?
Yes. For Fair Fighter, make sure Normal is set before the Raspatil fight.
Does the secret ending need DLC?
No. Collect the 160 base fragments and revisit the ending with Paradox Scope enabled.
Do casino wins complete the coin fragment?
Not necessarily. Treat the slots coin and the winnings trophy as separate objectives.
