Tales of Graces F Remastered - Chapter 05 - Adulthood (Part IV)

---

This is a long chapter. At the end there will be a trophy boss, but if you've been leveling up Asbel and his Infernal Torrent, no worries. That Art obliterates the boss.

Yu Liberte

When you're ready, go to the north gate via the Governmental District to continue with the story.

Strahta Desert (North)

Start by heading northwest for a possible sparkling point and a chest with 2080 Gald from a chest. Even further north is a Dried-Up Well discovery, Truth Salt, and the Fight Me, Brother! skit. There are three potential outcomes of this one - you will be fighting Hubert. He is not hard, you can heal with Gels if you need to. If you win you get My Reasons Are My Own, I Demand a Rematch!, and Alas and Alack skits, and you get Hubert's Restorer of Pride title.  Whatever you miss you can watch later when you get Katz Korner.

Grab the nearby Moon Anklet above and continue east. Follow the northern wall and you may find a sparkling point or two on your way east and hopefully the random Magic Carta No. 11. When you reach the save, watch the Furtive Glances skit and then head west to get the Silver Frames. Enter the port.

North Yu Liberte Port

Head to the cottage and grab the White Wine. Now, head for the ship for a scene and then watch the Piercing Glances skit. Before using the ship, head back to Yu Liberte (Residental District, and east all the way) to the Oswell Manor you can see a scene. Do this if you want 100% of the sidequests.

Go back to the port and travel to Warrior's Roost.

Warrior's Roost

This place is also called Riot Peak, if you find it like that on some entries.

After all the scenes, you will receive the Spy's Letter. Now, head right and examine the star to the east to up with Joe and his gang to receive Sweet and Sour Eel x3. Grab the Daphne Seeds and Red Wine. There is also a cat to feed. Go west now and grab the Magic Carta No. 35 and watch the Observing the Observer skit at the save. 

Head for the stairs and examine the metal crest at bottom right for the Annals of Victory discovery and Knight Moves skit. At the top, open the chest for a Book of Metabolism, pasword is "3". Now, talk to the receptionist to start a series of fights. Afterward, you will get Hubert's The Youngest Lieutenant title.

Back at the Inn's save, watch the En Guardian skit. You can now take on the Riot Peak Trials and participate in the arena.

You will likely be unable to finish it at this time, probably you will lose around floor 25 out of 30. It's worth trying out now, to get at least some rewards and steal some items. Play as Sophie, put 1 art for healing and just use her B-Arts all the time and heal if needed. Try to get at least floor 20 ((when baloons start to appear). so you get the Battle Sword, Mastery Tonic EX, Elixir and Hand-Drawn Map.

After you die, go back and start at floor 6. In the last battle against the Harpy x2 and Scepterista, kill off the harpies first. Now, use Eagle Dive (Up, Up with the circle) until you steal the Daily Medicine or she dies. Of course, you need to have a title leveled up with added steal do that art. If she dies you will have to redo the match until you get it. Note that Mammoth Specter's (violet baloons) which you can steal Cod (ingredient) from.

Go to the save point for En Guard skit.

When you're ready, talk to the spy, and head to Velanik via the ship.

South Velanik Port

There's not much to do here, so head into the house and grab the Crab x2 before moving on to the world map.

Fendel Borderlands

Head east and grab the Fancy Fur. To the east of this you may find a sparkling point containing rare drop Magic Carta No. 12. Just past this is the Peach Tree discovery, Peach, and Just Peachy skit. Keep going east for two more possible sparkling points. When you reach the split, go east toward the fortress that divides Fendel from Lhant (and south). You will find chests with an Anonymous Seed and a Seascale Crystal on the way to the border. When you get near 2 soldiers, watch the Border Crossing skit.

You can bribe the dark Turtlez to smuggle you across the border, but there is no purpose of doing this right now.

Go back to the split now and head north this time for a scene. Afterward, watch the Just Another Coinkydink skit nearby. Follow the west wall and you should be able to go up, and back south along a cliff to a chest with 2520 Gald. Continue north against the west wall for another small cliff with a sparkling point and a Green Ribbon.

Make sure you have 5 Strahteme Horn's before you enter town (from the Strahtemes - birds with beaks, close to the town, around the crater).

Velanik

Head straight for the Inn, it's the biggest building a bit left and then north from entrance. Go to the save and watch the Misery Loves Company skit and then rest at the Inn for a scene. Head to the stage for another check in with Joe and his siblings. This time you get some Battle Knives. Afterward, head up the stage and go in back for a Book of Deduction which needs password "2", and some shiny Niferum Seeds. You can also discover the Kaigar's Script, get the Kaigar's Script, and watch the Bananas for Bananas skit. The blue box is actually a chest too and has a Best Princess Stories book.

Now, head back to the entrance and check to the right of the small child for the Magic Carta No. 36. Go west to the residence and check the dresser for a Veggie Set. Head east for a scene if you have the five horns you will get Cheria's Kind-Hearted title. Head north and enter the house to check the dresser for Milk. You can also get the Bush Baby Plushie in the chest, feed the cat, and make Seafood Sets for the kid. Exit to the east, if you go north the well gives a hint to the earlier chest. Go south.

There is a kid here who tells you to go ahead and open the chest. Grab the Spoon and when you try to leave, you can't. Pay the 1,000 Gald to get him to move. Afterward, he will be behind the well and you can get the money back. Head back into the house where you made the Seafood Sets and you can now talk to him. He will now ask you for money every time you talk to him: 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, and 6400. If you pay all of them you get Cheria's Good Samaritan title. Go back in front of the Inn for more scenes, and inside for even more. After they are all done, view the Who-Knows-What skit at the save. Now head for the northwest side of town and enter the cave.

Fendel Mountain Pass

Follow the linear path and go right at the split to grab the Dark Bottle x2 and Platinum Tunic. Now go back and head north until you can enter a building (Cottage) for Suspicious Powder x2. Outside, watch the The Cold, Hard Truth skit at the save point.

Head west and grab the possible sparkling spot with Magic Carta No. 13 left of the save. You can't go east, so go west, and at the split go south to reach the Syrup Bottle x2 and Leafy Balm. Now, head back and go northwest.

When you reach the tree, examine it to get the Frozen Tree discovery and What Lies Ahead skit. Afterward, look behind the tree for a chest with 3240 Gald and a possible sparkling point. Continue on to the east and when you reach the two path, grab the treasure in between for Grape Gel x2. The tunnel on the right leads back to the save point. If you want to respawn the area for sparkling points and enemies, you may use it.

When you're done, head west from the chest location to leave.

Fendel Highlands

Talk to smiley man for a scene. If you stole the Rockgagong Fur already (like this guide suggest to), then all you have to do is turn the quest in when you get to town. If not, you will need to face Rockagong and steal one.

Follow the linear path and grab the Weak Charm behind a rock. Continue, get the Gold Scabbard and a possible sparkling point with rare Magic Carta No. 14. Continue north and you will get the Cabbages discovery, Cabbage x3, and High-Risk Highlands skit. Now, go back and head west.

There should be a sparkling point in the lower left corner of the large area and/or one north of this. Also, north is a chest with 2880 Gald. Continue west to the save for the False Pretenses skit.

Port to Zavhert

Head for the ship and if you have a Crablette on you (Dualize it), there should be a skit called National Crablette Day after the scene. Check on the right side of the dock for a Salmon x3, hidden under a tree. Now board the ship to Zavhert Port.

Zavhert Port

Upon arrival you get Sophie's Prone to Worry title. Right in front of you is an Elderly Man who will give you rewards based on how many carta cards you have. Luckly, this version has all cards (if you remember), you can redeem sets of 10 via Inventory, righ-most tab, Magic Carta Sets 1-10. I suggest you open first 50 to get all rewards now.

Rewards:

• 5 - Grape Gel x3
• 10 - Mastery Tonic C
• 20 - Mastery Tonic EX
• 30 - Asbel's Carta Collector title
• 40 - Lost Anklet
• 50 - Mastery Tonic G
• By reporting them 50, you will get It's Anklet skit

You can come back later in the game to get the last two items if you don't want to redeem from the DLC items. Head into the first building you come across and grab the Pie Sheet x3. Now, follow the path to town.

Zavhert

After the scene move west for another scene. You get the Old Military Credentials and freedom to move about town. Head into the nearby house to talk to a person with a smiley person. This girl will collect all the plushies you find. We don't have them all now, but you can help decorate her room by talking to her multiple times to hand them over.

Back outside, go west and up the stairs to get the Magic Carta No. 37. Continue west and examine the large pipes for Bottomless Pipes discovery and the Piping Up skit. Head into the nearby north house and get Crab x2 from the black container. You can also feed another cat here. In the back of the house, between the two beds, you can find the Doll-Within-A-Doll discovery and watch the skit called The Dubious Man.

Follow the path west again and talk to the man with the icon over his head at the bottom of the steps, and then head upstairs and into another house on the right. On the upper floor, check the dresser for another Best Princess Stories. Now, go outside and follow the path east until you reach the Inn on the other screen.

The first thing you should do when you walk in the door is watch the No More Suffering and A Surprising Theory skits. While you're here, turn in that Rockgagong Fur and get Malik's Imposing Figure title. Checl the trash can next to the Inn desk to throw all that trash you've gotten from sparkling points. You will receive Malik's Environmental Minister title. Head west into a room to find Joe and receive Hubert's Senior Younger Brother title. The chest here has the Book of Finesse, enter "60" for password. Upstairs, the right room has Rice x2 and Bloody Rose Seeds.

Head outside and go south to find a child selling a Katz Plushie near the stairs. Buy it and then talk to the soldier outside the equipment shop for a scene. Go back towards the Inn and talk to him again. After the scene you get Pascal's Real Amarcian title. Head back to the Inn and watch the All in the Timing skit. Now leave town to the west.

Mt. Zavhert

Follow the southern wall west until you reach the Life Bottle x2. Continue to the north, grabbing the possible sparkling point with rare item Magic Carta No. 15, and when you reach the fork go west and then south to reach a chest. It's a Fake, defeat it to get the Raw Materials and Pascal's Fire Summoner title. Check to see if there is a sparkling point nearby and then head northwest now to the Radishes discovery, Radish x3, and Dear Diary skit. Further west is 495 Unit(s) of Eleth and the Gone Astray skit at the save.

Go back to the first intersection and go northwest. Make sure to grab the Grape Gel x2 and when you reach the split, go west. This path leads to Pumpkins discovery, Pumpkin x1, and Short and Sweet skit. Go west and grab the Pretty Feather and then follow the path northwest to a Blue Scarf. Head back east, grabbing a possible sparkling point, and then continue north. At the split, go east to the save and watch the Winds of Change skit. Go southeast first to get Gold Frames. Follow the path south, grabbing the Fine Wood. If you continue south you will return to the path which you already completed. Go back north to the save.

Continue northwest until you reach the split and then head west to 3670 Gald. Head northwest for a scene and a fight.

Boss: Bladehorn Boar

Not a hard fight, just be careful when he calls minions. Take them out fast and continue chaining combos on board to stop him from running all around. 

When you have control again, follow the path north to a Turtlez and Formless Crystal.

Amarcian Enclave

Start by going west all the way to the Inn and the save to watch the skit called The Transplanted Land. The Chocolate Fountain is worth checking out for Chocolate Fountain discovery, some Chocolate x3 and the Fountains of the World, Part II skit. Nearby should be Joe and gang, which rewards you with the Mandarin Scarf. Going back east, talk to the smiley person to play Shot Cube.

Shot Cube Minigame

Beat Stages 1-3 to win a Rune Shotstaff.

Beat Stages 4-6 to win a Battle Shotstaff.

Beat Stages 7-9 to win a Platinum Shotstaff.

If you complete all 3 stages you get Pascal's Puzzle Cracker title. There are 3 more challenges, but you are not able to try them at this point in the game. We will come back later to beat the rest.

To the north is the equipment and item shops with some new items. Do some shopping.

Now, go back to the entrance and head east, and then a bit north. Enter the Fourier's house (left entrance, near talking NPCs). Inside is a locked chest with a Book of Acquisition (password is "13"), and a drawer with a Drill. Outside, feed the cat before you enter Pascal's house. After the scene inside, open the chest for the Magic Carta No. 38 and then check the drawer for Milk x3. On the right side of Pascal's room is the Robo-Pet discovery and Anything You Like! skit. Go to the Inn and on the save point there will be Whence and Whither skit.

To reach the Overseer's Chamber, go to the entrance of town and north down the steps.

After the scene, check behind the pillars on the right to grab the Jack-in-the-Pulpit Seeds. Head for the town exit and talk to the smiley faced man for a scene. Go back to Pascals' House to find the Research Sample and get Cheria's Only Child title. Go ahead and turn requests at the Inn - maybe not all, but Research Sample for sure. We are done with this place.

Mt. Zavhert

Head for the save point to the south and watch the A Lady's Prerogative skit. Now go back to the Turtlez and teleport to Zavhert's west gate.

Zavhert

Head to the Inn and turn in the Raw Materials to open the Equipment Shop in this town. They sell a bit weaker stuff from Amarcian shops, but Platinum Sword is not bad because it has can increase your minimum CC points, plus you can upgrade with some ATK plus shards so it to be your strongest weapon at the moment.

Just outside the west gate of the town, go at the save point and watch the Fatherly Advice skit. Make your way to the Research Lab, just continue from here.

Fendel Research Laboratory

After the scene, head north a little and watch the Sins of the Brother skit. Enter the lab and head west. At the second door, enter the room and grab the Working Gear. Continue west and enter the last door.

The lab requires that you complete puzzles to open the security gates and continue onwards. Complete the nearby puzzle and talk to the monolith to access a new area in the previous section. Take the elevator down.

The first door you come across contains some Grape Gel x3, while the second has some Panacea Bottle x2. Follow the path around the area until you reach the next puzzle. Solve it and continue to the next elevator down.

The first room here contains a chest with a Star Anklet, as well as the Eleth Recharger discovery and A Fundamental Flaw skit. Return and continue to the next room, where you can grab a All-Divide. At the first split, head right to reach a room with a Platinum Scabbard which you can equip for a skit called Accessorizing Scarab with Asbel. Head back to the split, and continue to the next puzzle and elevator down.

Follow the path and go north at the split to reach an Orange Scarf. Back at the intersection, go east and down another floor.

Head east to a room with a puzzle and solve it. Afterward, go east all the way following the bottom hallway to a room with Holy Bottle x2. Take the the nearby elevator. This leads back up a floor to a new area with 2 doors: one with the Profane Creation discovery, The Island of Dr. Fourier skit, and 525 unit(s) of Eleth., and the other with common item. Now, go back down and from the previous split that is west of the elevator, head north, but take the first right to get a Busted Blade. Go back, and north inside the elevator. At the end of the path is a save point. Prepare for the boss fight.

Boss: Veres

Veres is also easy. The main issue can be minions, dispose of them quickly. The rest comes down to combos, healing and that is mostly it.

After the scene, examine the monolith nearby to open the previous security gate. Head back south and go right down the hall to a room with the Book of Serendipity and Chocolate-Covered Banana. Make sure to watch the Irrelevant Nonsense skit before heading up and out of the Lab.

Mt. Zavhert

There's not much to do except head back to Zavhert. Before entering the city though, stop by the save for the Practice Makes Perfect skit and fight. There are, again, three potential outcomes and skits. Like Hubert's fight, you get all skit entries if you win Sophie on the first go:

• Lose: This Won't Do
• Retry: One More Time
• Win: Now I Know and get Sophie's Pact Adherent title

Zavhert

After the scene, head east toward the shops and talk to the man with the bubble over his head on the road (still on the same screen). Now, head to the Inn for the Plan B skit. You should also sleep at the Inn for a missable, timed-event scene.

Back outside, talk to the two soldiers with talk bubbles. Now, head south toward the east gate and then take the left to a star event. Continue west and talk to the next person with a chat bubble. Inside the house behind the last NPC, you will get a scene with Fermat and get the Security Pass. Head back to the Inn for another star event and then leave town to the north. Instead of heading further into Fendel Tower, turn around and go back the Zavhert Inn to watch A Blind Eye skit.

Fendel Tower

Return to Fendel Tower and grab the nearby Peach Gel x3 before heading up the steps for a scene. Inside, use the save and watch the Convincing Kurt skit. 

Head down the right steps and go under the other set of steps to ride an elevator to the 39F. Take the left stairs to hallway, and ride the lifts up all the way until you get to a chest with 3500 Gald. Reach the right side to get to the 40F Hallway.

Talk to the two freaked out guards here and then talk to the one blocking the western hallway. Select the option to tell that the soldiers are hidding. Take the stairs into a hallway and turn the right valve to walk across to the next area. Up the lift, grab the Hourglass before using the boards to move the platform to the right side. You can now walk across the boards to take the new platform west and up another lift. Watch the Panel Discussion skit after turning the second valve, before using the elevator on the right. Ride it to the right and ascend.

Take the right lift to reach more valves. Cross with the panel, turn off the valve, cross back, turn the right one and go through the pipe left and up. Check out the Frozen Nest for discovery and watch the Revisionist History skit. Turn the first and last valve to cross this area to the next floor.

You will be given four types of Gel's that you need to deliver to the right guard based on the description they give. It is random every time, so try using these hints:

• Man in black - Apple
• Man in white - Peach
• Girl in Black - Grape
• Girl in white - Apple

In the next dark corridor, ride the lifts across to a new area where you can grab an Eleth Bottle C before heading down a new set of lifts twice to reach the Life Bottle x3. Now go back up one floor and head east. Take the lift right next to where you land to reach the Grape Gel x2. Head back up and right to descend on the other side and find the Treasure Trove discovery as well as the Common Metal and the High Maintenance skit. Continue down and watch the False Bravado skit on the save before continuing to reach Kurt's Office.

After the scene, grab the Chamomile from the chest and check out the star event. Afterward, talk to everyone and then check the desk for a scene. You'll be back outside the tower now, but we want to head back and grab a treasure that is now accessible. Head back inside and take the elevator to the 41F. From there, go into the left dark corridor to find the Platinum Frames.

Zavhert

Head to the Inn and check the Northeast, Ho! skit at the save, and then go talk to Fermat (in the north residence), for a quick scene. Now leave town to the northeast.

Glacier Road

Take the west path first to reach an Artificial Crystal before going up the right path and grab the sparkling points nearby, maybe with rare Magic Carta No. 17. When you see the Turtlez Merchant, go south a little to grab the 2381 Gald.

Fendel Glacier Ruins

Follow the path until you reach the Grape Gel x2. Nearby is an ice block you'll have to move to continue. Gab the Syrup Bottle x2. Now, use the ice block to push it to the slope leading down to the Syrup Bottle, let go on the slope to break the nearby icicle and reach the Magic for Men. Now, grab the block and do the same thing to the next icicle to reach the next screen.

Follow the path until you reach another room with an ice block and use it to break the two large icicles (one of which breaks a third one). Grab the Strong Bone on the left side. Head down where the two broken icicles are, and check the glowing icicle for Rainbow Ice Pillar discovery, Icicle, and Running Out of Time skit. Now, head up the two icicles to another ice block. Use this to break the icicle to the south and get the Elemental Ribbon. Now use it to the southeast to knock the icicle down, grabbing the Whirling Seashell before moving on.

In the next cavern, take the west path to a Book of Valor before you continue south. At the save, watch the No Lack of Resolve skit. Head into the next chamber.

This place is a little more confusing, but start by pushing the western block down the western cliff and making a path to the Panacea Bottle x3. Now, grab it and move it into the eastern gap to reach the new ice block. Instead of dropping it from the highest cliff, move it down to the previous gap and release it from there. The failure to break the huge icicle causes the skit Allow Me to Demonstrate to happen. Now, grab it and take it to the top and toss it down to break the huge icicle. We can now move on, but first you should use this block to break the far southern icicle and reach a Mastery Tonic C. Continue on the main path, grabbing the 585 Unit(s) of Eleth before you reach the next chamber. Save and prepare for a battle. This one is a trophy battle!

Boss: Kurt (Kurt in 60 seconds trophy)

He is weak to Human, Strike, Poison, and Burn. You only really need Infernal Torrent with Asbel to win this fight. It was that one Art that we've used against the last trophy boss. If you've leveled it up via other titles, even better. I've used Hubert, Sophia on A Artes and Malik on B - Aggresively, almost without guarding. 

If you bring Malik, when you defeat soldiers there will be scene, and all that counts towards the trophy. Still, I did it even with this setup. It was overall an easy fight - switch to Easy of course, if needed. I did. 

After the scene, check Kurt to gain his Platinum Bladerang and then talk to everyone. Watch the scene and gain the Archive of Wisdom Key. Afterwards, check the valkines for Forbrannir discovery and the Just Ask Gramps skit. Take the one-way warp outside and head to Zavhert.

Glacier Road

Head to Glacier Road's save and watch the To the Archive of Wisdom skit.

Zavhert

In Zavhert, go to the Inn to see the Selective Memory skit. You can now head to the Amarcian Enclave (Mt. Zavhert Turtlez point).

Amarcian Enclave

Head to the Overseer's Chamber and into the Archive for a scene. After the scenes, go to the save near the Inn to watch the Connecting the Dots skit. Now, head back to Mt. Zavhert.

Mt. Zavhert

After the scene, head south to the save for the Lady Progeny and  What If He Knows? skit. You can then walk or use the Turtlez to Zavhert.

Zavhert

As usual, go to the Zavhert Inn for a skit called The Missing Pieces. Head to the port and make your way to World's Eye.

World's Eye

After the scenes you get Asbel's Friend to the End and Sophie's Conflicted at Heart titles. Head to the save and get A Near Miss? skit and save. Any further north and you get a scene that leads to the major Richard fight.

Boss: Richard (Nova)

No thropy this time. He is not that hard, remember the first fight and just be careful, heal and combo him.

We are done with this chapter, yey!
