US version, tested with Xploder only, credit goes to JaggedNightmare for providing her EU platinum saves.



LINK
The download link below includes 2 saves. Copy both to your PS3 and follow the instructions below to unlock 91% of the trophies with 10-20 minutes of work.

You must login or register to view this content.

NOTES
-Trophies for this game stack between EU and US regions according to PS3Trophies.org, meaning you can get double the amount of trophies if you have both.

-If you have the US version, you can simply copy over the entire save folders. If you have the EU version, you need to either:
1. Create your own save by going through the first several minutes of the game, and keep your own PARAM.SFO file while copying over everything else.
2. Open my PARAM.SFO file in a Hex editor, and change BLUS30503 to BLES01184.
3. If you have never played this game and are unfamiliar with hack and slash games, going through the first few minutes of the game is a good idea to familiarize yourself with the combat system, as you will need to fight one fight (final boss) to pop the five story trophies. Since this is an action RPG, even though your party is extremely overpowered, if you try hard enough, you can still die .

INSTRUCTIONS

-After you're done copying and resigning the saves with Xploder, start the game and load Play Data1, then:

1. Press "X" to get rid of the message, then press "START" to enter menu (not sure if necessary), and the following trophies will pop:

(Bronze) Boldan Rising
(Bronze) Destiny with a Darkenith
(Bronze) Faces of Vyashion
(Bronze) Arch Sword Apprentice
(Bronze) Minimum Negavantia
(Bronze) Warrior Monk Novice
(Bronze) Lunar Shadow Crescent
(Silver) Path to Glory
(Bronze) Arch Rune Fighter
(Bronze) Master Arch Swordsman
(Bronze) Maximum Negavantia
(Bronze) Supreme Mighty Blow
(Bronze) Warrior Monk Adept
(Bronze) Impenetrable Chrome Heart
(Bronze) Trickster Extroidinaire
(Bronze) Lunar Shadow Eclipse
(Bronze) Nosferatu Matriarch
(Silver) Soul Harvester
(Silver) Vyashion Historian
(Gold) Warriors Unrivaled

2. Press "CIRCLE" to exit the menu. You are in a town called Liberdam. Enter "Adventurer's Guild". A message will pop up: "Hmm? Do you something to report?" (LOL Engrish)", press "X" to complete the quest “Ogre hunt” and pop:

(Bronze) No Quest Too Small

3. Exit "Adventurer's Guild" and enter "Shop", sell "Fist Guards" (2nd from the top). This will pop:

(Bronze) Rags to riches

4. Exit "Shop" and enter "Arena". You need to pick one fight and win it. The enemy level is shown on the left and your characters are at max level with best in-game equipments. Note the time limit of the fights on the right. Pick a low level goblin/lizard/bat/skeleton/wolf fight so you can destroy them with ease by spamming "TRIANGLE-CIRCLE-TRIANGLE" combos. Avoid high level fights and fights with Ogre/Ettin/Giant/Gazer/Orthros because they might be trouble if you don't know what to do. This will pop:

(Bronze) Goblin Smasher
(Bronze) Bane of the Undead
(Silver) Giant Killer
(Silver) Dragon Slayer

5. Exit "Arena" and enter "Fugo Estate", go to "Buy Medals", and pick any choice. This pops:

(Silver) Medal Madness

6. While still at "Fugo Estate", select "Blackjack" (first choice) --> "Play" (view "Instructions" if you don’t know the game), wager the minimum 10 medals and just keep playing until you are dealt the correct hands to pop:

(Bronze) Blackjack Ace - Get a blackjack in blackjack (i.e., the first two cards dealt add up to 21. You'll need an ace and a 10 or any face card)
(Silver) Five-Card Charlie - Get a five-card Charlie in blackjack (i.e. have five cards in your hand and beat the dealer. You'll need 5 low value cards basically).

These trophies are completely luck based and must be done by yourself. I got both on my main and dummy accounts within several minutes. In any case, you have way more than enough medals.

5. Exit "Fugo Estate", then exit the town Liberdam to world map. Enter dungeon "Cave of White Sands" to the lower right of Liberdam. Kill one enemy and exit. This will pop:

(Silver) Bestiary Professor
(Bronze) Out for Blood
(Silver) No Stone Left Unturned
(Gold) Down with the Dragon King

-You're now done with the first save, UNLESS if you wish to get the full platinum, in which case you can use this save and do a run though the optional dungeon to pop the final trophy required for platinum (see Missing Trophies below). Otherwise load the second save by pressing "START", then "Options", then "Load" (2nd to last choice), and load Play Data2.

You will now be at the final save point of the last story dungeon. Go forth and enter the door to your left to fight the final boss. Your party is way overpowered and you should be able to kill him in a minute by just randomly mashing buttons. Beat him, skip all cutscenes and the ending credits ("START" then "SELECT") and at the final screen where you're asked whether to save or not, the following will pop:

(Bronze) First Chapter Cleared
(Bronze) Second Chapter Cleared
(Bronze) Third Chapter Cleared
(Bronze) Fourth Chapter Cleared
(Gold) Fifth Chapter Cleared

You have now unlocked 91% of the trophies


MISSING TROPHIES

(Gold) Labyrinth Mastermind - Complete Leonique's Labyrinth
(Platinum) Ultimate Soul Bearer - Obtain all other trophies

Leonique's Labyrinth is your typical optional/post-game dungeon. It has 50-floors and 10 bosses (1 boss per 5 floors) and no save points inside. You can skip all the regular enemies and only fight the bosses, but if you exit at any point, you'll have to start from the beginning. It seems like this last trophy can't be unlocked unless if you actually complete the dungeon yourself, which is pretty easy with the characters provided in Play Data1 IF you know what to do, as some of the bosses and later enemies can kill you rather quickly.

If you decide to go for the platinum, load Play Data1, exit Liberdam and enter Leonique's Labyrinth, which is to the left of Liberdam. Here's a general strategy that worked for me throughout the entire dungeon:

-On non-boss levels (all levels except 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45 and 50), do not engage any of the enemies, control the girl and run past everything. She is very fast and has three abilities that are particularly useful for speeding through the dungeon.
1. double jump ("X") and triple air dash (R1 while in air), lets you speed past enemies and occasionally bypass dungeon puzzles by jumping across very big gaps.
2. Invisibility (one of the two abilities mapped to "TRIANGLE"). Lets you run past enemies without being detected. Great for tight spaces with lots of foes, especially if you're also trying to solve a dungeon puzzle.
3. Shadow (the second ability mapped to "TRIANGLE"), creates doubles and speeds up your character even further.

-On the level right before a boss level (i.e. 4,9,14,19 etc.), make sure your burst gauge (upper left corner next to your character icons) is full. Then during the boss encounter, switch to the big guy ("L1"), get close to the boss and press L1+R1 together, then immediately spam the big guy's physical attack (one of the two abilities mapped to "SQUARE"). L1+R1 causes the boss to enter a defenseless "weakened state" (break state) for you to do massive damage. With the character setup of Play Data1, I was able to finish all 10 bosses with this exact strategy before they recover, most of them never even got to attack once. Even if you somehow fail to kill a boss during its break state, keep punching with the big guy to charge up your burst gauge to full again, then just press L1+R1 and repeat, two break states is enough to kill everything in this game, unless if you're doing something very wrong. Remember, you can lock-on to enemies by pressing R3, but it screws with the camera angle a bit. It took me about 45 minutes to complete the entire dungeon, but I'm pretty familiar with the maps and puzzles so expect the thing to last 1-2 hours.

Awesome upload thank you

it works thanks alot

Like I mentioned in this thread, if you use a save with the Leonique labyrinth already completed, the Mastermind will not pop. The save on the Xploder database is a platinum save uploaded by fellow NGUer JaggedNightmare, and will not pop this trophy for you, but my PlayData1 save will, and I have tested it.

There is a simple way to tell whether the Labyrinth has been completed on your current save: enter the Labyrinth, on the loading screen, there will be a dungeon stat that reads along the lines of "furthest floor explored", if that number is smaller than 50, you will pop the trophy. On my PlayData1 save, the number should be 45 or 46. The 1000+ kills doesn't matter, it just means I've been in and out of there a lot killing enemies, but I never went down to floor 50.

yeah it poped thanks rep+

thanks for the saves - got 91% within 10 minutes and then went for the biggie - took me a couple of hours due to the puzzles and getting a bit lost, but the bosses were too easy, all died without inflicting damage on me at all.

so happy to see the gold and plat pop after all that work, made me feel like i had earned the platinum.

This game is criminally overlooked. Many thanks =)

Thanks a lot.
