PS5
Mandragora’s platinum follows several growth systems: character level, enemy knowledge, equipment and vendors. A completed campaign may still leave level one hundred distant or one item group incomplete. Separate these progressions and use regional visits for useful checks instead of blind farming. Keep an Entropy activity record too, since ordinary-world kills do not automatically replace those specifically required there.
PS5 base-game platinum roadmap; separate console trophy stacks are retained where available.
- Required difficulty: The base list does not name a specific difficulty-clear requirement.
- Missable trophies: Record items, jobs and choices before progressing; do not assume every omission can be undone after the ending.
- Online: Base platinum requirements are offline single-player.
Build a coherent character
Choose a combat approach you can sustain and support it before constantly switching equipment. No universal compulsory class is required; the goal is entering encounters with understood damage and defence. Record learned skills and maximise one for its trophy. When an area feels disproportionate, review upgrades, resources and unfinished routes rather than treating every obstacle as a reason to restart the character.
- Track learned skills and one maximised skill.
Record diversions, cats and item families
Weapons, rings and diagrams are separate sets, while Grand Explorer concerns the whole map. Note closed exits and the type of ability needed to traverse them. Owning a diagram is not equivalent to having obtained every required weapon. Pet cats when encountered and record their region so Cat Person cleanup does not become another full-world search alongside every forgotten item.
- Keep separate map, weapon, ring and diagram lists.
Complete the bestiary and named miniboss groups
Loremaster requires all bestiary information, not just visiting every region. Caretakers, Corrupted Vermin, Chthonic Stalkers, Giants, Wraiths and Bloodfiends also have individual defeat goals. Compare trophy names with outstanding encounters rather than using a large overall kill count as proof that every category is finished. Pair item-return trips with checking the relevant enemies in that region.
- Match missing bestiary entries to regional encounters.
Develop vendors, crafting and enchantments
Economic Thinker needs three vendors at maximum level. Track each separately instead of concentrating every exchange on the first available one. Fifty crafted items, ten enchanted weapons and twenty enchanted armour pieces also use different counters. A large investment in one system does not complete the others. Save diagrams and materials for specific goals, then verify awards before spending more resources on an already-finished operation.
- Separate vendor levels, crafting and both enchantment categories.
Finish Entropy, level one hundred and exploration
Arena Champion needs every Entropic Rift, while Reaver of Entropy requires kills in that context. Ordinary fights contributing to Massacre do not replace them. Before grinding ten thousand enemies or level one hundred, inspect progress still available through exploration, jobs and collecting. A well-chosen final circuit can advance several counters together, while aimless repetition of an already-cleared region may not address the actual blocker.
- Audit Rifts and Entropy counters before final farming.

Frequently asked questions
Does finishing the story award platinum?
No. Map, bestiary, equipment, vendors and level one hundred have separate conditions. Audit them before treating the credits as total completion.
Do ordinary kills replace Entropy kills?
Reaver of Entropy specifies that context. Track it separately from Massacre and pursue activities that genuinely advance it.
Is upgrading one vendor enough?
No. Economic Thinker requires three at maximum level. Record each vendor’s state before investing further in an already-completed service.
