PS5
Keep separate saves before the Northern Tower for The Adventures of Elliot's platinum. The same encounter opens three routes: a normal win, a Mystic Seal finishing blow, and perfect guards with an accessory equipped. Work on cats and manuscripts alongside those routes so that the credits do not leave you revisiting every era.
PS5 base game. The roadmap names all three ending requirements without describing the plot resolutions.
- Difficulty: No difficulty setting required by the list
- Missables: Keep pre-ending saves; do bronze, silver and gold endings in that order
- Online: No online trophies
Track treasures and manuscripts by era
Activate guideposts and track visits to the same location in different eras separately. In Huther during the Age of Safekeeping, find a manuscript in the southwest house and another on the second-floor shelf in Kaifried's Manse. Mark cracked walls you cannot bomb yet and return with the right weapon. Rotate weapons while exploring: many have separate kill trophies.
- Track manuscripts by era, not just town name.
Get the bronze ending before changing the battle
When the story sends you to the bottom of Northern Tower in the Age of Safekeeping, save before the encounter. Win normally without the Mystic Seal finishing blow for As Long as Any Hope Remains. Make a Clear Save and keep a slot that returns you to the tower. The trophy is the objective; a fresh game is unnecessary.
- Verify the bronze trophy and keep the save before proceeding.
Retrieve Leytstaf and finish with the Mystic Seal
Find the Leytstaf Sword in Water Ruins in the Age of Reconstruction after the inner route opens. Revisit Littlehope, Weyzn and Hitoyori for the three sage events that lead to the Mystic Seal. At Northern Tower, weaken the boss and use the sword's level-four charged attack as the final hit for The Peace in Which We Walk.
- Merely landing the seal attack is not enough; it must finish the fight.
Prepare the gold ending with the pendant and three guards
After getting the seal, return to the three past eras for their late events and follow Mao's route. Take the Amber Pendant from Heuria's room and equip it in an accessory slot. Work on cats too: all 50 are needed for platinum anyway. Return to the boss, perform three perfect guards without attacking, then continue into the new final route.
- Keep files from the two earlier endings before entering the new section.
Finish the Temple of Trials and weapon goals
Progress through the temple to Hero's Trial, a series of tougher bosses. Bring upgraded equipment and healing. Then check cats returned to the orphanage, quests, Faie's lessons, accessories and magicite crafting. For combat counters, land the final blow with the specified weapon. Bombs have a different threshold from the other weapons.
- Check both forming one top-ranked magicite and the crafting system's form rank.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get all three endings in one playthrough?
Yes, by using saves to return to Northern Tower. The bronze, silver and gold order avoids relying on reopening earlier endings after committing to the final route.
How many cats do I need for platinum?
Katzenmeister requires all 50. Finish the set for the gold route too, instead of relying on a lower ending threshold.
What should I check if the silver ending does not trigger?
Make sure the sage events unlocked the Mystic Seal and that its level-four charged attack actually depleted the last of the boss's health. A normal finishing attack leads to the other outcome.
