Staggered
The “staggered” condition prevents you from performing most actions. It's caused by getting hit during an attack, and can be shortened or prolonged via various effects.
Irons Stance
The “Iron Stance” state prevent you from being staggered during. Many strong enemies begins fights with this effect in place, in which case you should focus on dodging their attacks and counterattacking when possible. If you keep hitting an enemy while it's casting s spell, you might be able to breaks it out of its Irons Stance.
Critical Stance
Characters enter the critical state when they have 25%or less of their HP remaining. Certain skills and equipment effects only come into play while this condition is active, making it a high-risk, high-reward way to battle.
Changing the difficulty

harder levels. But, of course, if you die, it's all for naught, so choose your difficulty carefully.
Character Combat Strategies
Asbel
Advanced B-Artes
Asbel's A-Artes are quick, but have a small attack range. If you find yourself surrounded during a combo, tap X to draw your sword, and the resulting wide slash will hit any nearby enemies. B-Artes use Cryas Attack power (C.ATK) to attack, so they can be more effective than A-Artes against foes that possess high Physical Defense (P. DEF).
When To Sheathe
Remember: you're a sitting duck while in the process of sheathing your sword, One option is to sheathe the sword as soon as you defeat an enemy, while another is to back-Step before putting the weapon away. Play around to learn what timing works best for you.
Sword-Drawing Tips
When Asbel draws his sword, it unleashes a hidden power and activates the Iron Stance state. However, he's limited in the number of hits he can absorb in this state. When you see an opportunity to do so, Press Circle to sheathe your sword, then draw ti again to start the counter all over again.
Sword-Sheathing Tips
When Asbel sheathes his sword, he can recover some Hp, depending on how many artes he landed when his sword was drawn and his current Physical Defense rating. Take advantage of the benefits of drawing (Iron Stance) and sheathing ( HP recovery) to make the most out of each and every battle.Sophie
Stick and Move
Sophie is skilled at close-combat attacks. And while her range tends to be shorts, she can land many quick attacks in a short period of time. Using L-analog with artes will sometimes move her around the battlefield, so use those wisely to create powerful attack-and-evade combos.
Charged Artes
Reaper's Toll is a special type of linked arte that Sophie can use which must be charged by holding Circle in the middle of a combo. The best time to use one of those “charged artes” is when an enemy is stunned or knocked down. Once you learn higher level charged artes, try charging the Charge Gauge an extra level (or two) to witness their fury.
Advanced Charged Artes
One of the titles you can get for using Charges artes has a skill that will sometimes restore your CC
completely it's a bit of a gamble, obviously, but if it works out, you'll be in the driver's seat of the battle. Also if your targets has moved away from you, just forward-Steps toward it and continue the combo.Hubert
Hubert's Artes
Hubert can use short-range dualblade artes with circle, and long-range twinshot artes with X. His dualblade's critical gauge fills slowly, though, so balance between the two types of artes is key. Strike fast and hard, and keep the enemy on the defensive.
Hubert's Artes #2
It's possible to chain A-artes into B-Artes. However, if Hubert's trying to build a large combo, it's better to use your 2 CC A-Artes before switching to the B-Artes. Don't panic if the targets slips away. Hubert's strength lies in his ability to attack without pause, even in such situation.
Hubert's Artes #3
Hubert is often vulnerable after using his artes, so if an enemy attacks during that time, it could spell trouble. Try to save some CC after attacking so you can be ready to quick-step if necessary. This will allow you to avoid attacks and attack again immediately.Cheria
Feint and Charge CC
Cheria is a master of wide-range healing artes that increase the survival rate of the party. However, these artes have a high CC cost. Be sure to have her join the fray every now and then with a few dagger tosses to give her a chance to replenish her CC supply.
Recovery Expansion
Cheria can learn Effect expansion skill, which widen the effective area of her recovery artes. Use her artes frequently to gain titles, then use the associated skills to expand, expand, expand!
Support Strategy
Support artes like Insight have the added effect in raising the target character's critical gauge growth rate. After stunning a foe with a critical hit, use those second to attack with low-level A-Artes and restore CC. This is an especially useful strategy for advanced players.Malik
The Long-Ranger
Malik is a master of long-range strikes, tossing his bladerang with his A-artes and casting wide-area spell with B-Artes. However, he's not much good when surrounded by hordes of enemies. Conduct yourself like a man of honor and avoid close confrontation!
Bladerang Basics
To be truly successfully effective with Malik, you must master his positioning while his bladerang is in the air. You may need to cancel a combo or follow an A-Arte with a B-Arte to eliminate openings for the enemy when the bladerang comes back. It's also possible for Malik to follow up a B-Arte with an A-Arte.
Catch and Step
It's possible to attack the moment the weapon returns to Malik's hand. Quick-step to shorten the pause that occurs when he catches the weapon, then press Circle to immediately throw it again.Pascal
High Risk, High Return
With long-distance A-Artes, and B-Artes that form cryas glyphs on the caster, Pascal's artes seem backward. But she wouldn't want it any other way! Her artes are among the most powerful in the game, so throw her out these and pray she hits something.
Swapping in Artes
Once Pascal has learned a particular skill, you can press and hold X while casting an arte to initiate a blue charge. While in this state, press Circle to use a high-rank arte in place of the original one. The casting time for the new arte will be decreased by the amount if time spent casting the old one, so it can be quite useful.
Evading while Attacking
One useful strategy for Pascal is to unleash a long-range shotstaff arte, then forward-Steps toward the enemy and fire off a glyph arte. Keep in mind that quick-stepping during an attack can Increase the amount of time an enemy is staggered (not just for Pascal, but for anyone), so try and make the most of this useful technique.

Return to the lower level and save your game. Proceed to the platform to the left and approach the panel for a boss battle.
Boss: Mercurius
This boss can be a bit problematic since it hits hard and can petrify your characters with an AOE attack. You'll know when its ready to release its petrification attack when it starts to charge and an aura appears around it. When this happens, stay away and use Panacea Bottles on your team mates. It will be helpful if you'll switch characters and use ranged attacks. Don't hesitate to use gels and life bottles as necessary.
[video = 10_vsMercurius.avi title=Petrifying reptile]
After the scene, Sophie will earn the In the Flesh title. Examine the panel for a discovery as well. (No. 21 Projection Device) and skit (Takes One to Know One). Once done, you can save the game then continue to the left then ride the stone up. 
[For the directions, I'll refer to them based on the in-game compass, located in the upper left-hand corner of your screen.] Ride the stone to the left (south) and open the chest containing a Hyperdense Crystal. Ride the next stone as it hits a purple stone. Backtrack and ride the next stone east.

Continue further north to find yet another chest containing a Slow Charm. Continuing further north will lead you back to the East Lhant Highroad, just a short walk away from Lhant. You can't enter it anyway so don't waste your time going there for now.
Gralesyde
Once done, check the alley behind the inn for another discovery. (No. 24 Bells of Glory). A skit will be available as well. (That Would Explain a Lot). 
Once done, head north of the town to reach the manor. Before going to the manor itself, turn left at the red signpost to find a secret chest containing an Imp Plushie and a young man who will sell you the Book of Dissolution for 3000 gald.

Wallbridge
Save your game then head out. Continue to the next room and grab the Elven Cloak there. Use the ladder in the middle to climb up. Ignore the second floor and continue to the third floor. Descend there since the top floor is a dead end. Exit through the northern door first, defeat the guard outside and enter the next tower. Use the stairs to go down to the bottom floor.
Ignore the lever there then exit through the door north again. Enter the next tower (Perimeter Tower NW B1) to find a large barrel. This is a new discovery.

Boss: Malik
He is dangerous especially in Eleth Break mode. You may want to have Sophie assist on healing while keeping your team afloat using consumables. Malik can also cause Burn status ailment so be careful not to keep its effect prolonged. Take out his minions first before concentrating your attacks on him. Once his knights are down, you should be able to close in and prevent him from casting his artes.
[video = 11_vsMalik.avi title=The bladerang master]

Barona Catacombs
Backtrack till you get out of the stone door. Instead of walking back to the Sanctuary entrance, continue forth. The chests you previously opened are all stuffed now so don't forget to grab them. Start by grabbing the Book of Perfection from the chest on the broken bridge. Continue forth and take the lower path to loot Cored Dust and Mysterious Liquid. 
Return to the main path and pick up the Panacea Bottle x2 along the way. Continue until you reach another split in the path. Taking the upper path will allow you to open another stone door and find a chest with 240 eleth at the end of the path.

(The blocked path later will be unlocked. You can check the rooms inside for an Elixer and a considerable amount of gald) 
Backtrack and take the bottom right path. Continue to the right until you reach a corridor going down. Head south then take the corridor to the right again to find a Rune Tunic. Proceed to the left this time to find a savepoint. 
Examine the painting on the wall north of the savepoint for a new discovery (No. 30 First Flag) A skit will be available as well. Continue to the left and defeat two more enemy groups. Heal up then approach Major Victoria up ahead. 
Boss: Victoria
The beautiful knight instructor
This is a bit challenging battle especially that she can perform Mystic Artes and well as initiate eleth breaks frequently. If will be helpful to change Cheria's strategy to heal frequently, as Victoria hits hard and can quickly land fast combos. Her spear also provides her with a wide-reach, capable of hitting multiple characters in front of her. Sophie can provide backup healing but she can be more efficient offensively. Just land hits and perform your own Mystic Artes whenever possible. Using consumables to keep your party afloat is a good, safe strategy as well.
After defeating her, return to the save point and heal up. Go past Victoria and head right to find the same turtlez merchant earlier. After dealing with him, return to the previous corridor then head to the left this time. Continue along the corridor then enter the third room. You'll find a chest inside containing 315 eleth. Continue further to the left and you'll find another save point. Approach it for savepoint for a skit. (Slay the Usurper) Save the game, then continue upstairs. 
Boss: Cedric
Battle to reclaim the throne
Cedric also has his own Mystic Artes. His attacks are a combination of fire and lightning, which will occasionally cause paralysis or burn. He prefers close range combat though his attacks have a wide arc and can damage multiple characters at once. Like before, set Cheria to heal as often as possible, preferably as soon as somebody's health goes below 50%. Provide backup healing with Sophie and with some consumables as necessary. He will tend to target Cheria often and interrupt her healing so do your best to attack him and get his attention. Sophie's fast combos and Pascal's damaging long-ranged spells will really help in keeping Cedric's attention off Cheria.
After the scene, you'll have the meet up with Richard. Head to the throne room. After learning your next objective, return to your team members. Captain Malik will also join the party. He will also gain the Prisoner of War and Dismissed Captain titles. To exit the castle, return to the throne room entrance. Approach the save point for a skit (A Touching Moment)
Head to the Inn first to find two new requests. Approach the savepoint for a skit as well. (Eye to Eye) You can now head to the port and travel back to Lhant.
Lhant
You can't go through the gates so you can just enter through the canal. Head to the manor and talk to the maid to check to check some requests, if you missed any. Once done, you can save your game and head to the study. Head outside after the conversation.
After the scenes, you'll have to fight Richard. He'll have a Nova Barrier so use Asbel's Lightning Strike, Hubert's Scarlet Salvo or Sophie's Sword Assault and Dagger Splash. If you're using Sophie, I suggest changing characters as she's be more effective when used by an AI. Remember to move back after performing a combo against Richard since he can retaliate with multi-hit attacks or a short-range AOE attack. Hubert will do a great job in dealing damage from a safe distance.
Boss: Richard
Be careful when Richard goes on eleth break as he will surely follow up with a devastating Mystic Arte. Keep him away from Sophie as she will do a great job in keeping the party alive, especially if her healing artes are upgraded at this point. Hubert can also provide backup healing as necessary. Don't forget to manually use items as necessary. Richard has a variety of mid-level, AOE attacks so it will be a good idea to evade often and try to attack him from the side or rear.

Cross the foot bridge and talk to the scholar behind the house with the green roof to get Spice Set x3. You can also talk to the Carter in the middle to have a conversation about Magic Carta. Its really just about remembering the quotes from each character and picking the correct character. It will be worth reviewing the carta cards you have and reading their quotes since they're the ones that will be used in the game. If you win without him scoring, you'll win an item and additional titles. The difficulty will increase as you collect more cards. For now, you can win Asbel's Dark Enforcer title with a flawless victory.

Boss: Dispater x2
Double trouble
These two enemies are notorious for primarily targeting your spellcasters, especially your healers. For the first part of the battle, concentrate on one target. Setting your strategy to have your teammates attack the leader's target will make it easier for you to focus fire on one target at a time. Later in the battle, they'll be using a very wide AOE attack, as well as some mid-range, medium-sized AOEs. Your healers will be smart enough to move away from danger and they'll be more effective if you'll prioritize keeping them alive using recovery items. If you have upgraded Cheria's healing artes and supported it with healing-boosting gems and equipment, then you won't have that much trouble keeping the team afloat throughout the entire battle.
Since the enemies are flying, it will be a challenge for some of your combos to hit or connect. Compensate by using Attack and Burst artes in tandem, especially if this will stop them on their tracks.
Defeating these enemies within 60 seconds will unlock a corresponding trophy.

Boss: Veres
Biological weapon on the loose
There's nothing special about this boss, aside from the obvious fact that it hits hard and can perform various close and mid-range attacks that can stun your characters. As always, try to sidestep this guy right before its attack connects so you can freely counterattack. Be careful once it starts to target one of your characters as it will continuously attack him/her, specially if it was able to stun him/her.

Boss: Kurt
Part of Malik's past
If you have Malik in your party, a scene will be triggered in the middle of battle.
The problem with this boss is that he has a very wide attack arc which can even damage those who are attacking behind him. It will be a good idea to guard as long as he attacks or time your sidestep between his attacks to get into a favorable attacking position while replenishing some CC. As usual, start by defeating the lesser soldiers as they can cast spells that can interrupt you and more importantly, your healer(s). These soldiers will respawn after a few seconds but while Kurt is alone, wait for him to finish his combos then concentrate your attacks and artes on him.
Defeating Kurt in 60 seconds will reward you with a trophy.
After the battle, check Kurt's body to get a Platinum Bladerang. Check the valkines as well for a new discovery (No. 60 Forbrannir) and a new title for Malik (World Seeker), if you haven't missed any discovery up to this point. After doing those, talk to everyone to continue with the story. 
After the scene, approach the valkines for a skit. (Just Ask Gramps) Use the nearby warp to return to the entrance. Exit to the Glacier Road.
Glacier Road
Go to the savepoint for a skit (To the Archive of Wisdom) You can also use the turtlez transport if you're feeling lazy. You'll need to head to the Amarcian Enclave next, but you can also make some detours to complete different available requests if you want. 
Zavhert
Enter the inn for a skit (Selective Memory).Use the turtlez transport to reach the enclave.
Amarcian Enclave
Head to the overseer's chamber and enter the archive to continue with the story. Before leaving, head to the savepoint for a skit (Connecting the Dots). Exit the enclave for a scene.
Mt. Zavhert
Instead of taking the transport, head to the savepoint for a skit. (What if He Knows? )
Zavhert
Head to the inn for another skit. (The Missing Pieces) Prepare your party and complete some requests if you want. When ready, head to the port and head to World's Eye.
World's Eye
After arriving, Asbel and Sophie will earn their Friend to the End and Conflicted at Heart titles respectively. Go to the savepoint for a skit. (A Near Miss?) Prepare your best party, save your game then proceed to face Richard.
Boss: Richard
Lambda's possession
Actually, unless you've been lazying about or haven't upgraded your skills and gears before this encounter, you shouldn't find this battle hard at all. He's relatively easy at this point of the game and his attacks shouldn't hurt you that much.
In any case, you'll have to break his nova barrier to be able to deal real damage to him. Once your allies' attack and spell combos connect, join the fray a second later to keep the hits coming and keep him occupied and stunned. He still has his mystic artes and his attacks are still the same. If you're having problems taking his attacks, assist your healers with recovery items as necessary.
After the battle, watch the scenes and you'll be asked to save the game. This chapter has concluded.
Zavhert Port
Head to the inn for now.
Zavhert
Once you reached the inn and spend the night there. Sophie will leave the party for now. Exit the room the head to the savepoint inside the inn to trigger a skit. (She'll Always Be Sophie). Head to the port for a scene. After that, Malik will earn his Pensive Sage title. Sophie will rejoin your party but as a benched member. She'll still earn EXP and SP as you go.
Before leaving the port, you can make a quick detour to the Fendel Research Laboratory to trigger a sub-event that will enable you to a material to create Pascal's comedic weapon and the chance to get a request item for an Amarcian Enclave request. Once ready, talk to the ship captain in Zavhert port to travel to Oul Raye.
Fendel Research Laboratory
Head to the Fendel Research Laboratory and take the elevator near the entrance to B5 (Fourier's room). Exit through the door to the south then go to the right to find a floating star. Examine it to trigger a scene. Defeat the enemy and you'll get Pondslopper.
Examine the barrels behind the chests to get the Gauss's Seal. This is a request item in the Amarcian Enclave inn. 
Oul Raye
After arriving, Cheria will earn her Embracer of Truth title. Next, talk to the nearby sailor for a sub-event. While on the ship, you'll have to fight a few enemies. Defeat them all and you'll receive the request item Sunken Cargo which you can turn in the Oul Raye inn. Once you return port, Asbel will earn his Expert Scrubber title. 
Head to the savepoint to play a new skit. (Outside the In-Joke). Turn over the Sunken Cargo request as well then use the turtlez transport to Sable Izolle.
Sable Izolle
If you're after yet another skit, do not approach the entrance of the tower as doing so will trigger the story scene and will eliminate the chance to view the following skit. Exit to the east of the city to the Craglands first. Approach the savepoint there to trigger as skit. (Needs More Fiber)
Also, you can challenge the Carter in the eastern part of the town to get new items and titles, as long as you have collected more Magic Carta cards. There is really no shortcut way of winning other than practicing. One effective tip is to remember a unique keyword for each character card you have in your possession and of course, remembering their faces. It may take a few tries but it is doable.
Normal Mode – Race to 200 points
Winning but the opponent has a score (1st time) = Book of Cuisine
Winning flawlessly = Sophie's Great Pirate title
Hard Mode – Race to 300 points
The challenge in this level is that several cards are on top of each other and you have to carefully but quickly select them without accidentally selecting the cards above them. This is a bit frustrating, especially when the opponent AI doesn't make this mistake. Also it pays to hover your cursor to the bottom cards so you can identify it beforehand.
Winning but the opponent has a score (1st time) = Nature's Scarf, Carta Shark title for Pascal, Busybody title for Cheria, skit (A Winning Combination)
Winning flawlessly = Cheria's Magical Bee title
Head to the front of the research tower for a scene. After that, go to the savepoint for a skit (Heightened Senses) Go inside the tower and take the central elevator down. Enter the archive and approach the panel for another scene. After that, head outside. 
After the scene, go to the savepoint for a new skit. (The Tenderness of Youth). Use the turtlez transport to go back to Oul Raye.
Oul Raye
Prepare to depart then talk to the president when you're ready.
South Velanik Port
As soon as you disembark, a new skit will become available. (The Other Side of the Sky). You can't use the transport to go anywhere for the meantime so hit the road follow it until you reach the split path. Follow the road south to reach the Border Fortress. Exit there and continue to the Seaside Cavern.
Seaside Cavern
Enter the cavern and jump in the water. Go to the savepoint to view a skit (The Weight of Existence). Examine the strange wall to the east to open a new path. Enter it to find the shuttle. After the scene, exit the room. After the scene again, go to the savepoint for another skit (Brotherly Love). You'll have to leave to Lhant immediately.

First, head to Lady Kerri's room and talk to her. Exit the manor and head to the bridge for a skit. (A Few of His Favorite Things) Once those are done, you can now talk to the turtlez merchant and use the transport to go to Velanik.
Fendel Mountain Pass
Continue to the mountain cottage and go to the savepoint for a skit. (Treading the Untrodden) You can take the path east now but go to the left path first and continue past the frozen tree to find an NPC. Talk to him to receive a request item Spade. This is actually the very request item posted in the Velanik inn.
If you've been following this walkthrough then you should have acquired the drill earlier from Fourier's room. If not, you'll have to wait a little later since the boat going to Zavhert is currently grounded. If you already have it in your possession, talk to Scoop again to give him the drill and complete this sub-event. Cheria will earn her Dutiful Daughter title afterward. 
You can turn over the spade to complete the corresponding request in Velanik then proceed to the eastern mountain path. Obtain the Eleth Bottle C from the chest along the path then exit to the next area. 
Untrodden Snowfield
Continue along the snowfield for a scene. After the scene, take the path to the right to find a chest. Open it for Milk x3. Continue to the next forth then open the two chests to the left to get a Green Scarf and Rune Anklet. 
Continue following the path until you reach the cannon. After the scene, go to the savepoint to view a skit. (The Will to Persevere). Go to the left to find a chest containing a Sharp Claw and turtlez merchant. Before heading inside the ruins, take the path east. Continue following the long winding path until you reach a fork. Take the path north and you'll find several chests there. Loot them for Veggie Set x3, Seal Charm and 5400 gald. 
After looting the chests, go to the right then instead of going north, go south first. You'll find another path going further east which leads to two more chests and a new discovery. (No. 61 Ice Drop Flowers) A skit will be available, like always. (Holding it Together) Loot the chests for a Pointy Fang and Hyper Scabbard. 
Return to the previous forth then take the road further north. Grab the x2 Syrup Bottle from the chest along the way. Further along the road is a dead end so return to the savepoint in front of the ruins for now. Enter the ruins once ready.
Snowshroud Ruins
As soon as you enter, a skit will be viewable. (Am Not. Am too!) Enter the small room in the middle to power up the area. Exit the room and you have to turn the devices so they power up the doors. Just keep rotating them until the wires and doors lit up.
Start by powering and entering the door to the left. You should find a chest containing Grape Gel x3 inside. Next, power up and enter the room to the right. Examine the red glyph on the wall for a new discovery (Yearning for Home) and skit (Hometown Hero). Enter the large door in the middle to proceed. 
Go left before taking the stairs to find a chest containing Tiger's Essence. Rotate the device so it powers up the door upstairs to the right. Check the room to find a Mythril Tunic from the chest. Return to the previous room and rotate the device so it powers the northern door. Enter it. 
Continue past the corridor until you reach a room with two doors. Power up the door to the left first, then power up the next door to the left again. Enter the room to find a Curse Charm. Return to the split path and power up the door to the right this time. Power up another door to the right. Check that room to find a chest containing a Dangerous Liquid. 
Return to the previous room and power up the door the upper left this time. Continue past the corridor to reach a room with stairs. Grab the Googles from the chest beside the stairs. Take the stairs to the right. In the next corridor, you'll find two doors again. Grab the 660 units of eleth from the chest to the right then press the switch in the middle to power up both doors. 
Enter the door to the left then power up the next door to the left again. Enter the room to find a new discovery. (No. 63 Mechanical Scrapyard). You'll also obtain a Rare Metal and another skit. (Bonus Goal).
Return to the previous room and redirect the power to the upper right door. Enter that door then rotate the device to power the next door north. Follow it again and you'll find a large door. You need to power both sides so redirect the power from the left conduits for now, then backtrack to the split. 
Take the door to the right this time and power up the next door until you reach a room with two doors again. Power up the one to the right first and loot the Earthen Pot from the chest. Go back to the previous room and power up the upper left door this time. Do the same and route the power so the other side of the large door gets powered up. Once the door opens, head to the next area. 
There will be multiple devices you need to operate in this room. Head to the savepoint first for a skit. (Not Exactly Our Forte) Save your game afterward. Power up the room to the right first so you can loot the Magical Ribbon from the chest. Return to the previous room and find another chest in the lower left corner. Open it for the Book of Growth. Don't power up the room to the left since its empty. Route the power to the main door to open it. Save the game once more if you want, then select your best party. Engage the boss when ready. 
Boss: Polycarpus
Mechanical Guardian
This boss isn't that hard. You can't juggle it to the air but its attacks are slow and predictable. Avoid attacking it head on. It is recommended to attack it from the side and rear. It has a few long-ranged attacks and will mostly stick will short and mid-ranged attacks. This will give Malik or Pascal more than enough time to chain devastating artes that will break the boss' guard and make it vulnerable for your own devastating combos. Aside from its long-ranged attacks, it won't give effort to chase and corner your spellcasters so they'll be in a relatively safe distance from its attacks.
You have to defeat it in a minute for a trophy though I'll suggest attempt doing this on New Game where you have the option to purchase damage multiplier upgrades. Use the warp afterward.
Untrodden Snowfield
As soon as you exit, you'll have to fight a few more monsters. Go to the savepoint for a skit. (It's a secret to Everybody)
Before leaving, you may want to enter/exit the dungeon again to gather Rare Metals. It is vital for several new materials, most of them are required for creating request items. You may want to put it also in your mixer, no matter how small the chances are, you'll still have the chance to have it created artificially. Having the Book of Duplication equipped at all times helps as well.
When ready, use the transports to return to the Seaside Cavern. You can turn over some requests in Velanik just in case. Otherwise, you can just use the transport to reach North Lhant Road.
Seaside Cavern
Go to the savepoint for a skit. (Fodrabound) Head to the shuttle. After the scene with Asbel and Cheria, head back to the shuttle again. You'll have to repel the monster attack as well. Exit the launch chamber and check the large cavern north of the savepoint. Defeat them then head back the shuttle. 
Watch the following scenes. After this, this chapter is completed.
Shuttle
Exit to the next room. The machine there functions as both the item and equipment shop as well as an inn. The stamp level is the same as well. Exit the shuttle.
Region 13
After the conversation, Pascal will earn her Reverent Sister title. Start by opening the chest nearby for Minced Meat x2. Head back to the shuttle and check the cockpit for a skit. (A Question of Priorities)
Save the game then take the path down south. Open the chest along the way to get a Magical Scarf. Continue further to the right to find a new discovery (No. 69 Secret Fort) however, if you're a religious collector of skits, don't examine it yet since its corresponding skit is still not available. For now, collect the Tofu x2 from the chest beside it and just come back to re-discover it later. 
Backtrack to the split then go uphill this time and grab some gald inside the chest there. Backtrack to where the shuttle is then take the path west. Grab the Secret Seed from the chest along the way, then go downhill north. Open the chest hidden behind a rock to your right to get Finest Fur. Backtrack again then continue west. 
Follow the path then grab the Holy Bottle x3 from the chest along the way. Continue to the savepoint for a skit. (No End in Sight) Save your game then use the warp.

You can head to the vending machine in the northwest should you need to restock or dualize. There are new requests here as well. You can also rest in the inn to watch a scene. Go to the savepoint for a skit. (Sticking Together)
Go upstairs north and examine the large mechanism for a new discovery (No. 64 Tempus Aeturnum) and a new skit (Ghost in the Machine).
Continue further east then go upstairs to the storehouse. Examine the large wooden tub for another discovery. (No.66 Giant Tub) This discovery will cough up three different ingredients, one of them is miso. If you have read the Tales of Graces forums regarding the mixer or anything related to it, chances are you're already aware of its importance. The Miso Stew was agreed to be the best dish you can cook and to effectively increase your eleth mixer capacity quickly. Fortunately, you can just keep buying/selling/dualizing from the Telos Astue store until you reach LV8 and you'll be able to purchase Miso for 3800 gald each. For now, trigger the skit that came along with it. (Still Rancid After All These Years)
Go back to the main floor then go to the southeast to find a lift. Operate it and go to 2F. Enter the Records Room to the north to find another discovery (No. 65 Emerald Hope) and skit (A World Without A Pulse)
Now take the lift and go to B1. The person you saw is standing by the stairs in the living quarters to the west. Before going there, go north and examine the shining object right of the stairs to find the Nameless Flower Seeds. Use the warp there to reach the shuttle bay. 
In the shuttle bay, you'll find a password-protected chest to the right. Enter the password “ephinea” to obtain Book of Enthusiasm. Return to the previous floor and head to the living quarters and watch the scene.
After the scene, open the chest beside Emeraude's bed to get Magic Carta No. 39. If you head to 2F, you should find a humanoid that sells titles for each of your characters. The prices will go up as you purchase them. These are basically the same titles (Eleth Mod) but with different parameter bonuses. You can also view a skit by going to the savepoint in 1F. (The Knowledge to Save) Once you're ready, leave the city.

Ignore the second door and continue until you reach the lift controls. Before checking it, go to the lift for a skit. (What Are We Missing?) 
Swap the charged battery there to power the lift. You'll need to do the same process from hereon so expect a lot of backtracking. Before taking the lift, return to the first room and grab the another battery there. Take the lift down. 
(B1 South)
Go to the right and enter the first room. You'll find a chest here containing Grape Gel x2. Examine the star for a sub-event. You'll acquire the Drive Unit request item and Hubert's Lover of Lhant title after this. Exit to the corridor and follow the path to the next screen.

(B2 South)
Go to the right and enter the first room to find a chest. Open it for a Rare Scabbard. Follow the path until you reach a savepoint. From there, follow the path down again to find a room with an All-Divide inside. Backtrack then take the door to the right this time. 
After the scene, don't leave yet. Approach the toy blocks on the floor to the right for a new discovery (No. 67 Old Toy Blocks) and skit (Cornell's Legacy). Go right for another scene. Asbel will earn his Host to the Light title after this. Exit to the right this time. 
Take the path up and follow the corridor until you reach a room. There's a chest inside containing and Elegant Feather. Backtrack then take the path down this time.

Boss: Lambda
Lambda Incarnate
His attacks can poison your characters but that shouldn't be a problem. Lambda's attacks can also cause petrification and freezing so pop your Panacea Bottles if needed. Other than that, just keep attacking until it goes down. You'll receive a trophy by defeating the boss within 60 seconds.
Go back to the savepoint to the left for another skit. (The Reason Why) Exit to the right of the room and follow the path to reach the lift. Use it to reach B2.

This will allow you to harvest Lump of Clay, an uncommon material needed for making several new items. Equip it to your mixer now in hopes to reproduce it in the long run.

You'll be able to trigger a new skit as well. (A World Run Dry) Don't forget to grab the Rice x2 from the nearby chest as well. Backtrack then take the path uphill to the north. Continue heading east until you find a floating star near the savepoint. Examine it for a cutscene.

Bathus Citadel
After entering, warp out and approach the savepoint for a skit. (The Ultimate Weapon)
(1F) Head east and enter the next room. Grab the Monocle from the chest. Examine the block there and choose to move it to the right. A skit will be playable afterward. (Intruder Defense) Continue moving both block lines to the right to create a path. Move along and exit to the next room. Keep going right until you reach an elevator.

(5F-6F) Open the chest for a Strange Gear. Now move the blocks to the left. Exit to the right first then take the lift to 6F. Continue to the left this time until you find a chest near a savepoint. Open it for Debonaire Dandy. Backtrack to the previous floor.

Now go back to the room to the south and exit east of the path you opened earlier. 
Approach the savepoint for a skit. (If Anyone Can Do It). Prepare your preferred battle party and head out to battle.
Boss: Centurioid
Humanoid keepers
This boss is simply a buffed-up version of the humanoids you have faced up to this point. He'll have two minions but you can just deal with them first so your allies can focus-fire on the boss without too much interruption from their long-ranged attacks. The boss doesn't have any problematic attacks that may threaten your party to get wiped out. Just keep Cheria away from him and you should be fine.
After the battle, you'll get a title for everyone:
Asbel – Enlightened Swordsman
Sophie – Protos Heis
Hubert – Enlightened Gunner
Cheria – Enlightened Healer
Malik – Enlightened Bladeranger
Pascal – Enlightened Shotstaffer
Before taking the warp, return to the savepoint for another skit. (Where's My Ring?) Use the warp inside the chamber to exit the dungeon.
Region 66
Approach the savepoint for a new skit. (A New Kind of Terror)
Region 13
Go to the savepoint by the warp leading to Telos Astue for a new combat skit. (Show Me Your Resolve). This time you have to fight Malik. This can be an easy or hard fight, depending on the skills you have equipped. The trick here is to keep close to him and don't let him move away. He will remain on a defensive while you keep attacking and when he starts to run away to gain distance, your CC will recharge as well.
His ability can also inflict Slow on you which can be problematic since he can easily move away and cast his multi-hit spells. Asbel's Plasma Shock works well against Malik since its combination of attacks can stun and juggle him in mid-air. After winning against Malik, he'll earn the Inveterate Teacher title.
Telos Astue
Go to the savepoint for a skit. (Someone Has a Secret) Go down to the basement and head to the shuttle bay. You can now leave to the next dungeon. However, don't leave yet. We have to trigger yet another sub-event before leaving. Besides, you can't leave the next dungeon without completing it. Check out any available requests here as well.
Head to the living quarters and talk to Psi. Exit the room then check the floating star to the right of the stairs leading to the shuttle bay. Next, defeat the humanoid to get its part. Turn it over to the vending machine > inn option to get your reward. You'll also get an Epic Neck material. 
Next, head to the right of the savepoint to find another humanoid with an emoticon icon. Talk to it for another sub-event. Next, head to 2F and go inside the Records Room. Examine the floating star there to continue the sub-event you triggered. You'll receive the valuable item Memory Core after this. This item will also allow you to unlock a title for Pascal later on, allowing you to obtain a new, amusing arte for her. 
Once you're done, talk to Emeraude to leave the city.
Lambda cocoon
You can use the shuttle's machine to access Telos Astue's item/equipment and inn options (minus the requests). Go to the savepoint for a skit. (A World in Edgewise) Head to the right then down the ramp. Take the path to the right first then stand on the hole to reach the lower floor.
Go down the ramp again until you reach a split. Enter the room to the left. Avoid the airflow in the middle for now as it will suck you in and take you to the previous floor. Exit west instead. Go down the ramp and open the chest to the left in the next split to take Syrup Bottle x2. Enter the room to the right for a scene. 
Exit to the right again. Open the chest northeast to get an Arcane Bottle. Enter the room in the southwest. Approach the savepoint for another skit. (Under Observation) Examine the weird looking stone up north for a new discovery (No. 73 Heart of Stone) and skit. (In Its Clutches) You'll also obtain a Legendary Metal. This is another rare materials that you may want to put in your mixer in hopes of reproducing it. Exit to the left then go down the path. Go to the right first to find a chest containing Eleth Bottle C. Head to the next room.
In this room, you'll find colored buds. The red ones will make the transparent vines extend while the blue ones retract them. Solve this puzzle using the steps below then exit west.
Activate the red bud to push the platform to the left. Approach the vine to activate a skit. (Touchy Subject)
Activate the blue bud to the north to retract the vine and open the path.
Next, examine the red bud to the northwest to push the platform again and create a path. This “puzzle” will be considered solved and the buds will die down.
Take the path down first then open the chest to the southeast to get Life Bottle x3. Enter the room to the left for another flower bud puzzle. 
Start by activating the blue bud.
Activate the red bud to the southwest
Go to the northwest platform, activate the red bud then the blue one.
Go to the northeast platform, activate the red bud then the blue one.
Exit this room then go north. Enter the left room this time then exit to the left again to find multiple paths. Go north first then grab the gald from the chest in the middle. The two rooms up north will feature two holes leading to the same puzzle room: 
Activate the blue bud nearby
Go to the northwest platform then activate red bud
Go to the south platform and activate red bud then activate blue.
Go to the western platform then activate red.
Activate blue again for the buds to die.
Exit east to find a red chest. Open it for Book of Smithery. Use the current to go back up. Once you're back in the upper floor, exit to the left and enter the next room. You should find a chest and a hole there. Loot the Grape Gel x3 from the chest there the jump to the hole. 
In this room, examine the chest for 780 units of eleth. Go to the right then take the current up again. Exit to the right then return to the first puzzle. The path should be complete now and you should be able to access the savepoint there. You'll be able to play two skits from the savepoint as well. (No Matter What! / One for the Road) Prepare your best party and check their equipment. 
Save your game then enter. Continue following the long path until you reach the central platform where Richard is found.
Boss: Richard
Richard's transformation
Richard is a lot more dangerous now after his transformation. His attacks are even more devastating. The most common attacks he'll do will be the firewheel that will knock your character on the ground while dealing multiple damage. The second is a two-way shockwave that can freeze your characters when hit. Expect a character with full HP to die when he/she is hit up close. It will be your best practice to attack him from the sides or rear, then sidestepping or backstepping after performing your attacks.
Assist your healers by using recovery items and life bottles. As long as you're attacking him, Richard doesn't seem to change his target and attack your healers instead. As much as possible, chain your combos as you'll be able to deal 5-digit damages to him per hit. Be careful of his Mystic Arte as it deals more damage now.
After the battle, change your artes and heal up as you'll be thrown into another battle.
Boss: Emeraude
Emeraude's pretense
Emeraude will defend herself with an aura that will surround her for a few seconds and damage anybody within range, as well as dark orbs that she spreads out or homes in to the target. It may be a challenge to get close to her sometimes but once you catch her off guard, you'll be able to connect with devastating combos.
When she's near death, she'll become immune against stuns and knockbacks making it harder to stop her from completing her spells and her offensive. She'll also teleport from one side of the battlefield to the other, making it more harder for you to catch up and attack her. Once she goes on eleth break, she'll either perform her mystic arte or a devastating spell that covers the entire battlefield and deals continuous damage. Like before, assist your healers by using recovery items.
After the scene, you should be able to go almost anywhere using the shuttle. For now, head to Lhant.
Lhant
After landing, there's a cat near the stairs. If you've been feeding every single cat you encounter, this particular cat should teleport you to the Katz Korner. Ignore that place for now then head to the manor for a scene. Go to the savepoint for a skit (Mutual Destruction) and save your game.
Head to the study to continue with the story. Once you're controlling Asbel, go to the savepoint for a skit (The Value of a Life) then just exit to continue the scenes. After that the party will be reunited and you'll have to go to Lhant Hill next. 
Before leaving, you can examine the floating star in frontyard of Cheria's house for Sophie to plant the new seeds you have found. (You may acquire Magic Carta No. 24 during one of these planting sessions)
North Lhant Road
Approach the entrance of Lhant Hill for a skit. (In Bloom)
Lhant Hill
Head to the meadow for some scenes. Before leaving, head to the tree for another skit. (What Did I Do Now?) Head back to Lhant afterward. 
Lhant
After arriving, Asbel will be alone again. He'll need to find everyone and talk to each of them. First, head to the study to find Hubert. Now exit to the manor's garden to find Sophie. Next, find Malik on the bridge. Go further to the left to find Poisson and Pascal. Continue to the north gate to find Cheria. Watch the next scene. After that, head back to the manor and sleep in your room. 
The next morning, everyone will get new titles:
Asbel – Steadfast Young Man
Sophie – Wish Maker
Hubert – Heart of the Lhant
Cheria – Dream Chaser
Malik – Watchful Steward
Pascal – Pride of the Amarcia
Don't leave yet. Go back a little to find Fourier. Talk to her to receive Pascal's Fluffy Muffler. Head to the bridge next for a skit. (Point of No Return) Hubert will also give a hint about the buried vault in Strahta during this skit. Head back to the manor and go to Asbel's room to find a chest containing Jade Vestments.
From hereon, you can now head to the last dungeon of the main story, Ghardia Shaft. You can check the extra locations and sub-events now, and complete some of the pending requests as well.
Most of the extra skits will only become available after getting halfway to the final dungeon so if you don't care about the skits, then you can just finish all available sub-events at this point before heading to Ghardia Shaft. I'll be writing the walkthrough for the first half of the dungeon here. Otherwise, you can just skip it and check the sub-events below.
Ghardia Shaft
(Base)
Open the chest to the right for a Red Sage. Go to the savepoint for a skit. (All The Way Down) Use the warp in the middle to proceed. Open the chest to the northeast to get some gald. Continue to the green platform and use it to descend.
Head to the upper left to find two lifts. Take the southern one first to find a chest containing an Arithmos Core. Go back up and take the west lift this time. Follow the path then use the blue warp. 
Just head to the green lift to the east. In the next area, you'll find some colored panels. You need to step on them in a specific order (red, yellow, blue). If you stepped on an incorrect panel, an enemy will ambush you once and teleport you back to the starting point. Succeeding mistakes will just teleport you to the starting point. 
Just follow the color order. Obtain the All-Divide from the chest after the first set and Grape Gel x3 after the second set. You can save the game first after crossing the third color set then step on the blue panel again to start from the beginning. Make your way back to the third set and then go past the blue panel leading to the red chest. Open it to get another Arithmos Core. There's a mini-boss battle next so prepare your party and take the green lift up. Approach the enemy in the middle.
Boss: Dullahan x2
[video13362 title=Headless guardians]
These enemies aren't that hard. You just have to avoid getting sandwiched between their attacks and you'll also have the watch out against their unblockable attacks. (Watch out for the red exclamation point that will appear above their heads) Their attacks are slow and predictable so use sidestepping and backstepping to your advantage. Concentrate in pulling B-arte combos as they are really weak against those attacks. Avoid getting sandwiched between them as their combos can really hurt and take out any character caught between them.
After defeating them, take the next lift down. Follow the path and grab the Hourglass from the chest before the two lifts. There's also another chest containing Life Bottle x2 to the southeast. Take the lift down to the south first. 
Follow the path north to find an Abysseon. Examine it and attach an Arithmos Core to bring it to life and fight it. 
Boss: Abysseon
Abyssal Golem
It is quite hard to break its guard and open it for a combo so it will be a good idea to bring Pascal and/or Malik in this fight while one melee character keeps it busy. It hits really hard but slow and its attacks doesn't connect that often. Just move away after landing some combos, wait for your spellcasters to break its guard and open it again for another combo. Keep doing this until its down. You'll obtain the Argo Iris from it.
Take the lift back up and descend using the other lift this time. Approach the invisible wall to the left for a short scene. After that, grab some eleth units from the chest along the way then use the warp.
Take the first path south and it will lead you to a chest containing Holy Bottle x3. Continue along the path and take the lift down. Loot the Book of Fortitude from the red chest to the north. Continue east then before reaching the savepoint, take the path south to find another chest containing some gald. Go to the savepoint for a skit (All Smiles). Take the lift up to find another golem. Power it up with another Arithmos Core and fight it. 
Boss: Destinion
Revived golem
This boss hits harder than the previous one but its still as slow and predictable as ever. Like before, having spellcasters are good since they can break the enemy guard and open it for combos from your melee fighters. Like before, it will be a good practice to sidestep/ backstep after performing combos to avoid getting pummeled with its counterattack.
After the battle, you'll get Sophie's Omniweapon Fists. Backtrack to the savepoint and take the other lift to the south.
You'll be in larger room with colored panels. The same thing applies with the previous one, except that the correct pattern is red, yellow and blue. Just follow these patterns to reach the chests to the north (Eleth Bottle C), in the middle north (Hourglass), middle (Arithmos Core), south of the chest with Arithmos Core (Red Lavender), west of the chest with Red Lavender (Elixir and Life Bottle x2) and northwest (Red Rosemary). Take the lift down next. 
Approach the transparent wall for yet another scene. After that, you'll be able to play a skit. (Glimpses of the Past, Part I) Head north and open the chest for a Mastery Tonic C. Continue further north for a new discovery (No. 74 Gigantic Drill) and a skit. (A Piece of History) Follow the path until you reach the savepoint. A new skit will be playable. (Emeraude's Mistake)
(Center)
All skits available up to this point will be viewable now. You can take the warp and go back to the first floor to check out all the optional places and complete all optional sub-events. Refer to the separate section in the guide titled “Pre-Ending Extras”. I suggest doing all if not, most of them since this will allow you to earn more titles and stronger equipment.
Approach the transparent wall for another flashback. A skit can be viewed afterward. (Glimpses of the Past, Part II) Go to the savepoint for another skit. (Hypothetically Speaking...) Go to the left then up to find a chest containing a Red Verbena.
Head to the westernmost side of this platform. Approach the green pedestal for a skit. (Give it a Spin) Activate it twice. 
Go to the northeast and take the leftmost warp. You should find a red chest in the next platform containing an Arithmos Core. 
Continue further to the left to find a green crystal on top of a peach device. Take it. Return to the previous warp then take the warp to the right this time. You should find a green device with an orange crystal in it. Replace the green crystal on top of the pedestal and take the orange crystal with you. Return to the previous platform and spin the green pedestal again so the sphere returns to the northwest (look closely at the sphere in the pedestal itself)
Return to where the green device is, then use the warp twice. In the new platform, you should find a chest containing Panacea Bottle x2. Continue and you'll find an orange device with a peach crystal. Swap the orange crystal you got earlier. However, do not operate the orange pedestal to the left. Instead, go back to the previous platform and operate the green pedestal once again. 
Return to the platform where the purple device is and place the purple crystal you acquired earlier. You can now use the warp nearby. In the next platform, you'll find a chest containing a Red Saffron and another golem you can activate using the Arithmos Core you got earlier. Defeat Vesperion and obtain a weapon for Cheria. Since these golems are pretty much the same with each other, there won't be any special strategies necessary to defeat them. 
Proceed to the main platform and operate the green pedestal twice. Make your way to the platform where the orange device and pedestal are in but don't operate it yet. You should be able to access the next platform with three chests. Open them for 840 eleth units, Fatal Attraction and Syrup Bottle x2. 
Don't take the warp yet; activate the orange pedestal once and go back to the previous floor once. You should be able to go further right and find Rebirtheon. Activate and defeat it to get Hubert's weapon. Now go back to the platform where the orange device is then use the warp in the middle of the three chests. 
Head south to find a savepoint and a skit (Getting Closer) There's a chest to the west containing Red Chamomile and Mastery Tonic EX to the east.
It will easier to refer to the warps as a clock's hours so I'll refer to them as such.
7 o'clock = Grab the red crystal from the blue device.
8 = Operate the yellow pedestal once.
10 = Discovery No 75. The Forgotten Ones. A skit will be viewable as well. (Used Tools)
11 = Place red crystal on red device. Get white crystal in return.
4 = Open chest for an Arithmos Core
8 = Activate the yellow pedestal again
5 = Open chest for a Red Savory. Operate blue pedestal once.
1 = Swap white crystal to get purple crystal.
2 = Open chest to get Eleth Bottle EX. Place purple crystal on purple device, get blue crystal.
7 = Place blue crystal on blue device
In the main platform go south of the checkpoint to get black crystal.
1 = Swap the black crystal and white crystal. The black device should activate. 
Go back to the white device and place the white crystal there.
Now you should be able to access the two golems to the east and west portions. If you fought the first four golems then you should only have one Arithmos Core in possession. You'll have to choose which one you'll like to fight.
East: Symphonion, drops Uroburos for Pascal
West: Phantasion, drops The Undertaker for Malik
Bosses: Plumsap Treants x2
Ghardian Trees
Head north and fight two Plumsap Treants. These will serve as the bosses in this floor. These are really easy bosses as they're slow and has no long-range attacks. They can summon minions to help them out but as long as your spellcasters spam AoE attacks, you should be able to get rid of them. Just concentrate on one target as possible.
Once done, approach the transparent wall for another flashback and skit. (Glimpses of the Past, Part III) Open the chest behind you to get Life Bottle x3. Use the warp next.
(Depths)
You can now use this warp to return to the exit as well. Take the first warp to reach the next area.
Take the warp to your right (north) to find a red chest containing the last Arithmos Core. You can then backtrack to the Center and defeat the last golem you didn't fight earlier.
Take the lower warp next (south)
In the next platform, take the upper warp (west) since the other warp down (southeast) only has an enemy.
Continue to the left to find a chest containing 870 eleth units. Use the next two warps and you'll find two bosses. 
Proserpina x2
The last hurdles
At this point of the game, unless you're pretty underleveled and under-equipped, these two bosses shouldn't be a problem to you. Since they're both flying, some artes, especially the A-artes won't hit them as effectively as normal. Nevertheless, they have a wide variety of attacks that covers a considerable area. Just keep them busy from your spellcasters and healer(s) so their spells break the bosses' guards and open them up for combos.
After this, you'll have to follow the straightforward warps until you reach the savepoint.
(Bottom)
Go there for a skit. (What We Fight For) Save your game and make the appropriate preparations. The warp nearby will allow you to visit any floor so restock if needed. Bring your best party and best gear then take the next warp.
Boss: Richard
...also known as the warmup exercise before the real fight
He is pretty much the same one you fought the last time so you may get disappointed, depending on how much you've become stronger since your last encounter. Since its been a while since that, you should see the difference in strength now. For the first part of the battle, he'll be very susceptible to stuns and combos but later in the game as soon as he can raise his nova barrier, he'll be able to execute his wide range of attacks. Some of those moves can easily stun or paralyze your characters so be prepared to assist your healer(s) with recovery items.
After defeating Richard, watch the following scenes. You'll then have to fight the real last boss in the game's main story.
Boss: Lambda Angelus

If you head to the valkines, you'll find a floating star. Do not examine it yet since this will bring you to an optional boss fight against Gloandrake. Its a LV82 dragon that's an incarnation of the wind Valkines. And yes, there are two others found in the Water and Fire valkines respectively.

In shuttle mode, scan the narrow valley south of Oul Raye (X: 2.836, Y: -308.583) to find this area. After landing, you'll have to defeat the vault's guardian. It should be a very easy battle at this point so just defeat it with ease. After the scene, Hubert will earn his Scion of Oswell title.

Fendel Glacier Ruins
Head to the second savepoint deep inside the dungeon for a skit. (Music Makers)
Continue to the boss room. The floating star there will allow you to challenge the third and strongest of the valkines dragons. Forbrawyvern is a LV121 (moderate) fire dragon with around 495K HP. If you're struggling keeping yourself alive in this battle, it may be a good idea to try challenging it a little later.

Sable Izolle
View the skit in the savepoint (Midnight Ramblers)
Check the counter behind the item shop to find Cheria's swimsuit. Purchase it for 100,000 gald to recover it. Cheria will acquire her Seaside Angel title. 
Also, you can challenge the Carter in the eastern part of the town to get new items and titles, as long as you have collected more Magic Carta cards. There is really no shortcut way of winning other than practicing. One effective tip is to remember a unique keyword for each character card you have in your possession and of course, remembering their faces. It may take a few tries but it is doable.
Normal Mode – Race to 200 points
Winning but the opponent has a score (1st time) = Book of Cuisine
Winning flawlessly = Sophie's Great Pirate title
Hard Mode – Race to 300 points
The challenge in this level is that several cards are on top of each other and you have to carefully but quickly select them without accidentally selecting the cards above them. This is a bit frustrating, especially when the opponent AI doesn't make this mistake. Also it pays to hover your cursor to the bottom cards so you can identify it beforehand.
Winning but the opponent has a score (1st time) = Nature's Scarf, Carta Shark title for Pascal, Busybody title for Cheria, skit (A Winning Combination)
Winning flawlessly = Cheria's Magical Bee title
If you talked to Justin in North Yu Liberte Port, you'll find him near the inn. Talk to him to receive Carbon Rod.

Check the vase to the right of the item shop to find Asbel's swimsuit. (Vest-Dressed title)
Inside the Rockgagong
Head to the southeast portion of the dungeon to find a Felonfake enemy. Defeat it to get Hubert's swimsuit (Six-Eyes)
If you haven't done it yet, it will be a good time to attempt and steal the Rockgagong Fur from no other than the Rockgagong itself. You have a 25% chance to steal it. First, you have to prepare. Asbel, Sophie and Pascal have moves that has a chance to steal. I'll suggest using Sophie since you can just spam her B-Arte, Sword Assault. The following titles and books will also help:
Sophie's Pilferator title (Steal probability up) – Mastering it will boost the effects
Book of Finesse (Doubles the odds of stealing items) – Acquired from the password-protected chest in Zavhert
Book of Serendipity (Doubles the odds of gaining items you haven't acquired yet) – Inside a chest in Fendel Research Laboratory
Basically what you want is to steal the fur and run away as fast as you can. Take note that taking a direct hit from the rockgagong's attacks will result to an instant death. When you see it raising its arms, hold your guard and continue attacking. After getting the fur, you have to escape. Do this by running outward the battle area's blue ring until you see the escape gauge.
Steal and Run
Strahta Desert Ruins
Head to the savepoint for a skit (Evenly Matched)
Go to the valkines and check the chest behind it to find the request item: Liquisilk Fabric
There's a floating start in front of the valkines where you can fight an optional boss, the dragon called Duplewyrm. This is a LV104 dragon (moderate) / LV95 (normal) so unless you're near that level, I suggest avoiding fighting this boss for now. If you're able to defeat it in battle, you'll receive Dragonbone Darts for Cheria and Duplewyrm's Cryas.
Dragon of the Water Cryas
Go to the underground ruins and go to the southwest and fight an enemy called Torch Elemental. This looks like an ordinary fire elemental so just engage them and defeat them until you recover Sophie's swimsuit. (Beach Kitty title)
Uncharted Sandstretch
Exit from Oul Raye then take the path to the right to reach this new area. You should be able to handle the enemies now though you should still be careful since they still hit hard. Follow the straight path and you should find a chest to the left. Open it for a Mastery Tonic C. Further along the road, there's another chest containing some gald.
Continue along the path and you'll encounter some Blast Helmites. Defeat two waves of them to obtain the request item: Abandoned Cargo and Pascal's Free Spirit costume title. 
Grab the Arcane Bottle from the chest near the turtlez merchant then save your game. Check the green slot on the large entrance then insert the Amarcian Key you acquired earlier in the Balthus Citadel. 
Sandshroud Ruins
Go downstairs and enter the first room north. Examine the panel to power the place up. Before entering the room to the right and routing the power, go downstairs to the left and approach the savepoint for a skit. (A Show of Gratitude)
Engage the Pooka Helmet north and defeat it to finally get Pascal's swimsuit title. (Deep Sea Diver) Enter the room north and approach the rotating object ahead for a skit. (That Old Familiar Feeling) Open the chest to get Life Bottle x3. 
Backtrack to the stairs and enter the room to the right. There are two doors here so route the power so it reaches both doors to the right. If you route the power to an empty square, it could make an item or enemy appear. In this room, routing the power to the two squares nearest to the doors will reveal two chests containing an Eleth Bottle EX and Crystal Seashell. Enter any doors to the right. 
Rotate the switch to route the power to the unpowered conduit and exit to the next door. This time, you'll be in another room with more switches. This “puzzle” is rather very simple so I won't be spoon-feeding you the details. Let's start on the right side of the room. Check the image below to know where the chest is located (the other squares contain enemies) and how it should be routed. Open the chest in the middle for 900 units of eleth. 
On the left side, open the chest for Grape Gel x3. Continue south once both powers are routed. 
Before taking the stairs, continue to the right to find a chest containing some gald. Go downstairs and follow the path until you reach a door. Exit to the west and you'll be in another large room with a similar setup. The square to the northeast has an enemy while the one in the middle right contains an All-Divide. The chest to the middle left contains a Clear Core and the lower left square contains an Elixir. 
Once you have routed the power to two doors, enter the door to the north first. Use the savepoint here if you want, then loot the Hourglass from the chest. For now route the colored lines so that they'll merge and create a purple line. Route the purple line to power up the door. 
Enter the corridor then enter any of the doors to the left. Here's you'll find a larger version of the colored panel puzzle you encountered a few moments ago. In this room, you'll have to direct the colored lines so they'll pass through all panels with the corresponding color. If two colors pass through the same node, it will create a new color. All panels must be lit and the door powered up before it can be opened. The puzzle's pretty easy. Still, the solution is provided in the video below. Don't forget to deliberately pass the lines in the empty squares to make the two chests to the northeast and middle left appear. Open them for 1 Gald (Yes, seriously) and the Book of Solitude. Continue to the newly opened door.
First colored puzzle
Examine the artifact in the corner for a new discovery and skit. (No. 76 Heat Ray Cannon B) (Patching the Cracks) You can take the portal to warp to the entrance and restock. Otherwise, just backtrack to the savepoint then back to the large room. Take the door to the south this time. 
Enter the next room to the right and you'll find three doors with colored conduits. Enter through any of the rooms to find a larger and intimidating version of the colored puzzle room you encountered earlier.
In this room, you'll have to direct the colored lines so they'll pass through all panels with the corresponding color. If two colors pass through the same node, it will create a new color. In the areas with eleth lines of three colors, a single line can contain two colors maximum. If three colors pass through the same line, all lines will be reset and you'll have to start over. You may check the video below to learn what colored lines should pass to what switch and panel.
Second colored puzzle
After the door opens, defeat the enemy guarding the two chests and loot them for a Mastery Tonic EX and Hero Staff. You can now use the portal to return to the entrance. 
Shuttle Crash Site
You'll find this in this coordinates (X: -381.555, Y: 129.488)
Approach the crash site for a skit. (Belated Apologies)
Go to the right of the crash site and you should find a hidden chest in the far end. Open it for Sophie's Silver Vestments. 
Equip your best armor and damage reducing titles before checking out the floating star. You have to attack this humanoid until you deplete its HP. Once its HP is drained and it becomes a “?”, brace yourselves and guard against its explosion. If the explosion kills you even when you're guarding, you'll need to come back later when you're a bit stronger or when you have better equipment. Or you can simply set the difficulty to easy mode and guard once it raises its Nova barrier. Take note that it can still kill you if the explosion caught you off guard.
After the battle, you'll obtain the request item: Proof of Another World.
Lambda's Cocoon
The dungeon's layout is now different from before. From the shuttle, go to the right, then enter the room to the southeast to find a red chest. Open it to get a Book of Audacity. 
Enter the hole then go left twice. You'll find a chest to the south containing Rare Tunic. Examine the floating star for an event. You'll obtain the request item: Data Recorder. Sophie will gain her Version 6.1 title. 
Continue to the left and you should find a savepoint. Open the chest to the northwest to get a Drop Bottle. Other than those changes, the rest of the dungeon is pretty much the same so you can now leave.
Telos Astue
Skit by the savepoint (Target Practice)
Humanoid Research Center
There's a skit in the savepoint outside the laboratory in B4 (Just Between Us Gals).
Continue to B2 and before you reach the laboratory room, there should be a path going up. Take that and follow it as it turns to the right. Enter the room you'll find and you should see the floating star. 
This will only become available after getting the memory core during a sub-event in Telos Astue (you can trigger it before leaving using the shuttle for the first time) Now you'll have to collect the necessary materials. You'll need two each of the following:
Soaring Crystal (Pretty Feather Torn Page)
Overgrown Crystal (Anonymous Seed Torn Page)
Formless Crystal (Hazardous Liquid Rare Metal)
Hyperdense Crystal (Dangerous Liquid Lump of Clay)
Artificial Crystal (Working Gear Rare Metal)
Moist Crystal (Water of Absolution Common Metal)
Here's the general list of the base materials needed:
Torn Page = Harvested from Discovery No. 33 Daunting Book in Sable Izolle
Rare Metal = Harvested from Discovery No. 63 Mechanical Scrapyard in Snowshroud Ruins
Lump of Clay = Harvested from Discovery No. 70 Unsettling Garden in Region 66, Fodra
Common Metal = Random pick-up item. Once you got it, you can reproduce it by using the eleth mixer.
Water of Absolution = Discovery No. 11 inside Barona's Sanctuary
Pretty Feather – Drops by Desert Eagles in Strahta Desert West, Harpies in Fendel Borderlands
Anonymous Seed = These can be stolen from Filifolia Cacti and rare drops from Mandragora.
Hazardous Liquid = Common drops of Red Slimes and Mega Stars inside the Rockgagong, or rare drops by ropers in the Wallbridge Ruins.
Dangerous Liquid = Common drops by Equitoids and Veritoids in Bathus Citadel
Examine the floating star again once you have the materials. Mecha-Sophie will be born and Pascal will get her Brainiac title.
Balthus Citadel
Skit at the savepooint near the boss room (A Desolate World)
Enter the boss room and examine the floating star there. You'll get the request item: Drill and Malik's Model Soldier title. 
Katz Korner
If you're able to feed all the hungry cats you came across, you'll be able to access this secret place by talking to the last cat that will appear in Lhant before heading for Ghardia Shaft. From hereon, you can access this by talking to any cat you have fed before. In case you lost track, here are the cats' locations:
Barona – outside of the royal sanctuary
Gralesyde Port – found in the eastern side of the port.
Oul Raye – Inside the cottage near the port
Sable Izolle – To the left of the tower's entrance
Yu Liberte – Inside the White Wine Estate in the residential district.
Warrior's Roost – Its by the docks to the right and really hard to miss.
Velanik – Inside the house just outside the inn where you'll find a plushie and a kid who makes seafood sets
Zavhert – Inside the house where you'll find (Discovery No. 50 Doll-Within-A-Doll)
Amarcian Enclave – Outside Pascal's house
Lhant – Found in the plaza, available only after clearing Lambda's Cocoon the first time. 
Chests: Magic Carta No. 40
Skit: Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Cat Pine Seeds
Password-protected Chest: (foselos) Hourglass
Discovery: No. 78 Catnip, Skit: Raining Cats and Dogs
Cat-Crazy Coot's House
(X:332.000, Y: -392.000)
Head to this location to get the Katz Decoder. In case this location doesn't bring up anything even after scanning it, you need to visit the Katz Korner at least once and talk to the old man there to get the coordinates. This will allow you to communicate with any Katz especially those tending the shops in the Katz Korner. You'll also get a Katz Klothez armor. Loot Milk x3 from the chest before leaving.
Alright, that's all the pre-ending extras you can check at the moment. If you want to view more skits, here are the available ones:
Sandshroud Ruins (Cool Composure)
Snowshroud Ruins (A Mother's Pride)
Orlen Woods savepoint, near the village (Cheria's Awakening)
Wallbridge, perimeter tower SW B1. (Ulterior Motives)
Wallbridge Ruins, second savepoint going to the Gralesyde Highroad exit. (The Abridged Version)
Border Fortress, in the middle. (Kicking Butt, Taking Names)
Lhant Hill, meadows, by the tree. (All Class)
Warrior's Roost
You can already make your way to the top and challenge the champion, Viegue if you want. Defeating him will allow you to get his sword, the Laevatein (Excalibur is much stronger than this) and will open up a new request in the inn.
Riot Peak Guardian
After the battle, you'll also get the Victor's Badge and unlock a new skit as well. (Cry Babies)
The Riot Peak Master Class will become available as well. In this mode, you'll fight without items and players will be swapped per round. When you reach the top floor, you'll be fighting Veigue again but on a one-on-one battle.
This is a continuation of the main story so unless you wanted to continue from your previous save, I'll suggest starting New Game and get the bonuses like double XP, item drops, damage and such. Since you're basically loading the cleared savegame file, all additional data like completed requests, new book entries, earned shards and such will be added to your grade evaluation.
In this mode, you're basically continuing your last saved game so the pending requests, acquired title, level, skills and gold carry over. Take note that the weapon requests given by a particular ???? seems to be unavailable. The shuttle is also available from the start so use it for your convenience. Telos Astue however, won't be available in this mode.
After the scene, Asbel will get his Lord of Lhant title and Sophie will get her costume title Toast of the Town. Before leaving, examine the grave behind you for a new discovery (No. The Lords' Memorial) and skit. (Six Months Later...)
Exit south to the town. Head to the manor for a scene. Before leaving, go to the study and approach the table for a skit. (Cry Harder)
There's also an event star by the cabinets. Examine it for a scene about Asbel's parents. After this, go upstairs to Asbel's room. Approach his table for another skit. (Half-Hearted Proposals) Head to East Lhant Highroad next.
East Lhant Highroad
Use the shuttle to travel there and you should find the monsters in front of you. Engage and defeat them. You'll have to return to Lhant for now but you can visit the Turtlez HQ first for a minor sub-event while you're at it.
Turtlez HQ
There's a sub-event here. Talk to the turtlez near the cottage and give them an apple, banana and peach to complete this sub-event. This will enable the turtlez transports again.
Lhant
Head to the manor for a scene. Enter the manor for another scenes. The next day, check the guest room in the first floor to check on Sophie. Since she's not there, exit the town to the east.
East Lhant Highroad
Approach the savepoint for another skit (Flying Solo). After viewing it, use the shuttle to fast-travel to Barona.
Barona
Head to the castle to meet with Cheria. After this scene, Cheria will earn her Traveling Healer title. Head to the throne room to continue with the story. Hubert, Malik and Richard will join the party afterward. They'll also get their new titles respectively. (Eradication Director, Special Attache and King of Windor)
You can set up Richard since its been a while since you used him. Approach the savepoint outside the throne room for another skit. (The Odd Man Out)
Exit the castle but don't use the shuttle yet. Go to the valkines for another skit. (Brother from Another Mother) You have to go to the Barona Catacombs next but you can stop by Lhant for an optional sub-event.
Lhant
Go to Cheria's house to find an event star. Examine it for a sub-event. After viewing this, use the shuttle to go to Barona Catacombs directly. 
Barona Catacombs
The layout is still the same but there will be new treasures to find. Go past the stone door to find a chest. Open it for an Arcane Bottle. The path down leads to the warp to the monster's nest but go past it for now and continue following the path. Open the chest along the way to find some grape gel. Enter the hidden room where the previous discovery is to find a chest containing All-Divide. 
Enter the room where Lambda's relic is to find another chest. Open it for an hourglass. 
Return to the path where the soldier is and go down. The chest to the far north contains a Gnome Cloak for Richard. Approach the entrance of the ruins for a skit. (Wise Words) Enter the ruins afterward.
Gustworks Ruins
Approach the savepoint for a skit. (Fames Sans Fortune) Save the game and continue forth a boss battle. You'll only able to use Malik, Cheria and Hubert in this fight.
Boss: Plumpsap Treant
This is basically the same boss you fought in Ghardia Shaft: Center before. Malik and Cheria will do a great job in pummeling it with their more powerful offensive attacks while Hubert can keep the combos going. Overall, there shouldn't be a major problem dealing with this boss.
Three is still a party
After the scene, you'll be controlling Asbel and Richard at this point. There's a savepoint and shop to the right (counts as a Telos Astue shop as well). Recharge your mixer and rest if needed. Head to the left for a skit (Gentlemanly Behavior) then save your game. 
Continue forth. After riding the stone to the right, take the lower left stone first to reach a Sylph Cloak. Backtrack and head to the open area for a scene. 
After the scene, go up and examine the orange device. The control switches over to Cheria's party. Go up then ride the stone to the right. Before going up, ride the stones to the lower left and lower right to reach the chests containing Dangerous Liquid and Lavender respectively. Continue up to the next open area for a scene.
There's a shop nearby and another skit by going to the left. (The Marrying Type)
Ride the stone up, then go to the right. Ride the stone to the upper left so it hits the orange stone, sending it down. Return to the previous platform and continue up. Ignore the switch for now. Instead. Continue to the right, then down and further right to find two orange blocks. Ride the stone to hit it down. 
Ride the stone up to reach a platform with a chest. Open it for a Verbena. Backtrack to the orange device and switch to Asbel.
Go to the right then ride the stone up. This should bring you to a platform near an orange stone. 
Ride the stone to the right to send the orange stone up then return to your previous platform. Ride the stone to the right this time. You'll find yet another device. Switch parties this time. 
As Cheria's party, go right then down again. You should see the orange stone stuck neatly beside the red stone. Ride the stone up to disembark there. Ride the stone to the lower right then go down. You should find a chest containing Magic Carta No. 70. Ride the stone to the left so it hits the orange stone down. 
Go up past the orange device again and ride the stone to the right. This should lead you to a platform with a chest containing an Elixir. Backtrack to the device and switch parties again.
As Asbel, the path up should be accessible now. Head to the left first, then down for a new discovery (No. 80 Eloquent Stone) and skit. (Renewing the Past)
Backtrack and continue to the right. You should reach a platform with another switch and a chest. Open it for Needle of Extinction. Continue up then ride the stone to the right so it hits another orange stone up. Ride the stone down to reach a chest containing Suspicious Powder x5. Backtrack to the switch and change parties. 
As Cheria, go up then ride the stone to the right so it stops by the red and orange stones. Ride the stone down then left so you hit another orange stone. 
Go back then ride the stone to the right. You should reach another switch. Nothing much you can do here so switch parties again.
As Asbel, ride the stone up then the other stone down. Disembark from the orange and red stones, then ride the stone to the right next. Continue up then ride the stone to the right to bump up the orange stone. 
Ride the other stone to the right of the device then ride up to find another chest containing a Killer Fang. Backtrack to the switch and change parties. 
(Cheria) Continue up, left and up again. Ride the stone to the left to reach a chest containing Magic Carta No. 71. Return to the previous platform to the right then ride the stone to the right again to bump an orange stone down. Take the green stone down and use the device there to change parties. 
(Asbel) Ride the stone to the right then up. Follow the path and you'll regroup with the others. Once ready, go to the left for a skit. (The Necessary Motivation)
Go up then take the green stone up. In the upper level, don't take the stone in front but ride the left one instead. In the next screen, continue up for a new discovery (No. 81 Gustworks Core) and skit (The Atmosphere Between Them) You need Pascal to operate this device and reach the chests in the other side so you have to come back later. 
Backtrack then take the left stone this time. You should find a chest containing Magic Carta No. 72 from the chest here. The stone down leads back to the entrance so instead of taking that, ride the stone back to the right twice then take the green stone again to descend.
Ride the stones up to reach platform with two more stones. The stone north will lead to a savepoint. Take the south one first to reach a chest containing 1000 units of eleth. The stone south of this will lead you to the shop and another savepoint. Backtrack and proceed to the next savepoint.
Approach the savepoint for a skit. (Growing Old) Save your game, prepare your team and take the green stone down.
Boss: Legendary Wyvern x3
Just fight them normally until the battle ends automatically. After the scene, you'll have to form a party with Asbel as a fixed member. Once done, exit out of the screen and proceed with the real fight.
In this battle, Asbel will be able to use his Accel Mode. He'll also get his Accel Force title.
Accel Mode activate!
Like when you're fighting multiple enemies, avoid staying in between them. Move away and attack outside the group to maximize your damage and lower the chances of you getting pummeled in between. With Asbel's Accel Mode, you should be able to deal more damage, even more when connecting with combos. Just concentrate with one target and evade their attacks. Malik and Richard will do a great job in providing crowd-control spells while Cheria of course should keep the party alive.
After the scene, a skit will be playable. (The Most Dangerous Game) Go to the right to find a chest containing Radiant Howl. It's weaker than the Excalibur but can boost Accel Mode's time. Go back up and save the game. We can now head outside.
From the savepoint, ride the stone south, then east (based on the compass) twice. Take the green stone up next. In the upper level, go left and left again, past the discovery we visited earlier. From hereon, it should be straightforward. Just ride the platforms and you'll eventually reach the exit.
Barona Catacombs
After the scene, Cheria will earn her Reader of Hearts title. As you walk out, a skit will become available. (One More Communicator) Make your way out to the Sanctuary.
Barona
As soon as you exit, another skit will be playable. (Sentimental Journey) 
Your next destination is the Amarcian Enclave but I'll strongly suggest taking some detours first for some additional titles (which will unlock new artes) for Cheria and Malik.
Gralesyde
A skit will become available after using the shuttle. (A Night at the Inn)
Head to the inn to find an event star there. After this event, Cheria will earn her Bluter of Truths title, which will allow her to learn a new mystic arte. 
Velanik
Go to the savepoint in the inn for a skit. (Crisis of Leadership)
There's also an event star by the counter. Examine it for a scene. You need to trigger this event in order to enable the next event in Zavhert, necessary for Malik's new title. 
Zavhert
Head to the inn for a skit (Reforming Zavhert)
If you triggered the event in Velanik, an event star should be in the plaza. After this scene, Malik will earn his Retracer of Paths title. Like Cheria's, this will allow him to learn a new mystic arte. 
After these, you can proceed to the Amarcian Enclave next.
Amarcian Enclave
A scene will take place as soon as you arrive. You'll have to go to Fendel Glacier Ruins next but go to the savepoint by the inn to trigger a skit. (A Simple Courtesy)
Fendel Glacier Ruins
You need to make your way to the valkines. The layout is still the same but there will be new items to loot. In the first room with an ice block, there's a chest to the southeast that has a Sage. A chest containing a Symphonian Spectre is also found before the exit to the next screen. 
There will be new enemies here that can drop new materials so you can farm some of them while you're at it. Continue to the second chamber with ice blocks. To the far left is a chest containing Scars of Eternia. There's also another chest to the east containing a Magic Carta No. 60. 
Exit to the next corridor. There should be another chest in the western cavern containing Magic Carta No. 61. Continue forth until you reach the third chamber with ice blocks. Once there, follow the path near the wall to reach a chest containing the Tempest Bringer. 
There's also another chest in the middle of the room. Open it for 500 units of eleth. Exit this room and head to the second savepoint. Touch it for a skit. (Half-Cocked)
Go to the valkines for a scene. Select your combat party and engage the boss afterward.
Boss: Titan Beetle x4
This battle should be easy enough, especially when you have accel mode already. The only challenge is that some of your attacks won't connect considering that they're flying. Other than that, this battle is pretty much a straightforward one, without any special tactics necessary.
Rescuing Pascal and Sophie
After the battle and scene, Pascal will get her Same Old, Same Old title. Before leaving, go to the savepoint for a skit (Friends Again) then enter the opening to the left. There should be new items there.
From the first split, go to the right to find an Efreet Cloak. Equip it for a skit. (A Kingly Cloak) In the second split, loot Verbena x2 from the chest. Go further to Kurt's grave to find a Magic Carta No. 62 from the chest. Return to the warp and leave the place. Head to the Amarcian Enclave next.
Amarcian Enclave
Head to the Overseer's Chamber to find Fourier and Poisson. After the event, Pascal will get her Big Sister Type title. A skit will be playable as well. (A Guilty Conscience) Make your way to the exit for another scene. The girls will stay behind. Malik will also get his Leader of Men title after this. 
Go back to the plaza for a skit (Untrusted Sources) Note: It seems that this skit will only become available if you walked in front of the crater in Fendel Borderlands. You can just travel there via shuttle, walk in front of it, then fast-travel back to the Enclave to activate this skit.
Yu Liberte
Skit in the main entrance (Jewels in the Sand)
Walk in the middle of the two fountains in the residential district for a new skit. (Catching Up with the Oswells)
Head to the presidential palace for a scene. After this event, Hubert will get his Contrarian title (Accel Mode). A skit will be available as well. (Filial Piety)
After viewing this skit, head to the Residential District and enter the Oswell Manor. Talk to Oswell for a sub-event. Hubert will earn his Legion Commander title after this. (New Mystic Arte)
Go back to the presidential palace and enter it for a scene. After this, Richard gets his Eradication Commander title. (Accel Mode) Head to the Strahta Desert Ruins next.
Strahta Desert Ruins
As soon as you arrive, you'll be thrown in an immediate battle. After defeating the enemies, a skit will be available. (A Girl in Every Port)
There will be new enemies, treasures and you'll need to solve the puzzles again to navigate the ruins. Before moving forth, check the entrance of the ruins for a chest containing Rosemary x2.
Warrior's Roost
Skit at the savepoint. (The Mask of Justice)
... To be continued.
Important Notes!
Check your map
When doing sidequests, always check your map! (Press R3) From there you can view each town's shop inventories, the current requested items and whether you have the required items or not, and even show the enemies in each location, including their normal and rare drops, as well as their stealable loot. 
Don't carelessly sell items
Don't carelessly sell items, especially those you got as rewards from different quests. A number of requests are interconnected, meaning the reward you get for completing one can be used to complete another. If you need money, then sell the cashable junk you can create through dualizing.
In addition to the tip above, DO NOT SELL your old equipment. I can't stress that enough. There are quests that will require your old accessories. Most of them are unique so don't just carelessly sell them.
Keep materials at hand
Whenever you get a new material, it's a good idea to keep at least 2 pieces of each left in your inventory. This will ensure that you have an ample amount ready when you need to create a requested item or if the materials themselves are requested.
Books of Duplication and Fortune
Everything you buy, find and create is recorded. In case you're short on uncommon and rare items, use your Eleth mixer. You can collect even more faster once you get the Book of Duplication and Book of Fortune. These invaluable spellbooks will allow the mixer to generate two items instead of one and will increase your chances of generating items. Take note that the mixer's capacity is upgraded whenever there's a new item generated so it will be a good idea to keep a few items with high production probability so you can keep creating them as you walk.
You need to collect stamps in various shops for them to reveal their hidden inventory. You can do this by buying and selling from them, recharging your eleth mixer and dualizing. The more you spend and sell, the faster you'll earn stamps! Take note that as the store's “stamp level”, the amount required to earn stamps will also increase dramatically. Take note that some of the hard-to-find materials, ingredients and equipment are available only as stamp items!
Regarding Qualities
For quests which requires you to surrender weapons with specific qualities, you can just combine them with a shard that will give them the required quality. Take note that some qualities will “mix” and either create a different quality. You don't want that; as much as possible, for these requests, keep looking for a shard in your possession that will give the requested quality. Enemies in moderate mode above tend to drop shards more frequently. For more information about qualities, you may check the helpful links below:
http://tales.namco.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=3358741&sid=d96a1bbecb721a8c51e9a82d23cfd15d
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/604158-tales-of-graces-f/62417923
These posts contain the discovered quality combinations so far and the best places to farm them. To increase your chances of acquiring shards, you'll have to equip the Book of Acquisition and cook Fish and Chips, as well as increasing your difficulty.
Farming for shards is very time consuming so you may want to “downgrade” your weapon to a lower quality then combine it to become a different become a different quality. To make it easier to understand, please read the example below.
Request: Third Supernova (Magical)
What you have in your possession is a Third Supernova (Stuffy). Based on the references above, the combinations to get a Magical quality are the following:
Wicked Wicked
Wicked Stuffy
Wicked Solemn
Frosty Solemn
For example, you lack a shard that will give you a Magical result but you do have some Wicked and Solemn shards. You can downgrade your to a 5-letter quality, temper it so you can dualize it again, then combine it to another shard that will give you say, a Wicked Third Supernova. Combine this with your Wicked and Solemn shards to get a Magical Third Supernova.
The same method applies to the other weapons and this will save you a LOT of time, trying to farm for the preferable shard with the correct quality.
Money Tip
The best way to earn money is to dualize and sell cashables. At the start of the game, just rely on cashables made from materials that can be easily acquired. As you progress in the game, you'll have to start making and selling Stuffed Dolls, Feather Badges or Ashen Rings. The list of materials can be found below.

Daily Medicine
1940SP, 3880G
You need to steal this item from the human enemy called Scepterista on the 10th floor, at 6% chance. I recommend using Sophie for this task since three of her A-Artes (Eagle Dive, Elegant Flash and Demolition Drive) has the chance to steal items. The best of all is that her B-Arte, Sword Assault can also steal items. A-Artes can be tricky to execute, especially if you only want to steal an item since the other moves will increase the damage and thereby kill the target quicker. 
You can just spam Sword Assault. Take note that as long as the move connects, it doesn't matter if you're targeting a different enemy. Hitting all enemies in range will still have the chance to steal the item. Also, to further increase your chances, you'll need the following:
Sophie's Pilferator title (Steal probability up) – Mastering it will boost the effects
Book of Finesse (Doubles the odds of stealing items) – Acquired from the password-protected chest in Zavhert
Book of Serendipity (Doubles the odds of gaining items you haven't acquired yet) – Inside a chest in Fendel Research Laboratory
You can try and may be lucky enough to get this on a few attempts. But if you feel that you can't just seem to get it, try again later with those items and title at hand.

It is possible to get all trophies in one playthrough although it's going to be very difficult. It is recommended to attempt getting all the trophies in New Game and purchase helpful bonuses like damage, experience, SP and gald multipliers, as well as carrying over your arte usage, titles, etc.
Some of the trophies are not complete yet as I've yet to complete the optional dungeon (Zhonecage), Future Arc and some requests as of this writing. Rest assured that I will update this guide as soon as posisble.
Like my other guides, obvious and story-related trophies won't have in-depth explanation in unlocking them. Since several trophies have the same conditions or progressions to unlock, please read the notes below:
Regarding Title trophies
Each character gets 3 trophies for learning titles. A trophy is unlocked by learning 20, 50 and 100 titles. Richard in the other hand, can only unlock 80 titles. There are several ways to unlock titles:
Story progression
Arte Usage (number of times used, two for each)
Leveling up
Sidequests
Character challenges
Regarding “...in 60 seconds” trophies
These trophies will require you to finish major bosses within 60 seconds to unlock. This is best done in New Game after purchasing Double Critical, Double and 5x Damage. Having Double Exp, 5x EXP and Double SP will also ensure that your characters are high-leveled and has learned several skills. You can also lower the difficulty in that specific boss battle if you're having problems defeating them within 60 seconds.
Regarding “Game Clear” trophies:
You don't need to play the game in all difficulty settings. You just have to beat the last boss per difficulty setting. You can change the settings in the savepoint before facing the last boss.
Another note is that you must get these trophies before clearing Zhonecage as it will make the last boss stronger, making it more difficult to unlock these afterward.

A Gentlemanly Triumph
Defeated a true Gentleman. Good show!
Mixer Maxed
Maxed out your Eleth Mixer by boosting its eleth capacity to 9999.
Every time you cook a dish, the eleth mixer's capacity increases. The amount it increases depends on how much the dish's cost is. As agreed and recommend in various forums (and as tested myself), the best dish for fast capacity boosting is the Miso Stew. It has a 94% HP recovery rate, provides x4 Tempering Boost and activates post-battle as long as your eleth mixer is above 50%. In case you're in the middle of dungeon-crawling and your eleth mixer goes below 50%, choose another dish that simply activates when your mixer goes below that point.
Miso Stew is created by cooking Dashi Stew Miso. Miso is one of the ingredients generated in the giant tub in Telos Astue (Discovery No.66 Giant Tub) or can be purchased from the Telos Astue shop at LV8 stamp. Dashi Stew is created by cooking Radish Egg.
Equipping the Books of Potential, Satiation and Growth will further speed up the increase of your eleth mixer's capacity while Books of Frugality, Dissolution, and Deduction will help recover some eleth to you going.
