Hello everyone, so, you thought there weren't sidequests in the game? You're wrong, here is the list of all the sidequests within the game, be warned, you should do all of them once you finished the game because there could be spoilers if you didn't pass the game.
[spoiler]-------------------- Chapter One --------------------
<Luin>
- If you are on second playthrough or on, select Mania Mode before any battle. Maintain Mania Mode for the entire game to unlock Unknown Mode for the next playthrough (Unknown Mode).
- Before the statue of Lloyd, pick the second choice (don't pledge loyalty to Lloyd). Doing so, the True Ending Conditional Point will remain at zero. If you pick the first choice (pledge loyalty to Lloyd), the True Ending Conditional Point will be at five. To get the True Ending, the Conditional Point needs to be below nine. You can pick either choice and still get the True Ending but it is easier if you pick the second choice/don't pledge loyalty to Lloyd. If you chose the first choice, you can still make up later (True Ending Part 1).
<Chnoir Lake's Cave>
- After fighting Lloyd, search the floor for Lloyd's Mask 1 (Lloyd's Mask Part 1).
-------------------- Chapter Two --------------------
<Asgard>
- At the first area, enter the cave before the north fence to find the Wonder Chef.
<Hima>
- Within the inn, check the right room on the first floor to find the Wonder Chef.
<Hakonesia Peak>
- Check around the middle sign to find the Wonder Chef.

<Palmacosta>
- Within the Vanguard Base at the east side of the town, go up to the second floor to find the Wonder Chef.

-------------------- Chapter Three --------------------
<Triet>
- Monster Fish successfully for 100 times to get a title for Emil (Amateur Fisherman).
<Triet Ruins>
- From the first area, enter to the second area. By doing so, the True Ending Conditional Point will be at one or six depending on what you chose in Part 1. That means every time you exit out from the second area to the first area then enter back from the first area to the second area, you get one Conditional Point. If you chose second choice in Part 1, the True Ending Condition Point is only at one. If you chose first choice in Part 1, the True Ending Conditional Point is already at six. Keep in mind that in order to get the True Ending, the Conditional Point needs to be below nine. Please do not exit and enter back too many times or you will fail to get the True Ending. To play it safe, do not exit out until you beat the boss (True Ending Part 2).
- With the True Ending Conditional Point below nine, you will get the Ignis Core. If the True Ending Conditional Point is above nine (which means you already failed to get the True Ending), Lloyd will steal the Ignis Core but give it back in Chapter Eight (Ignis Core).
- After meeting with Lloyd, search the floor for Lloyd's Mask 2. The location depends on whether you have the Ignis Core or Lloyd stole it but you can get it regardless (Lloyd's Mask Part 2).
- After the boss fight, go back to Iselia and head in the Village Elder's House to find the Wonder Chef.
-------------------- Chapter Four --------------------

Go to speak with Lyner in Aisha's House. Head toward the altar and enter the Ascard's Ruin. Within, get near the Harpy Statue that is around the middle. Check it and go NE to change the Sorcerer Ring to Wind Element. For the bells nearby, hit the second one from the right, first one from the right, second one from the left and first one from the left. You may now use the warp in the NW room. At the Balacruf Royal Tomb, defeat Targerion for the Balacruf Monument. There is also a Level 120 Phoenix which drops Balacruf Crest. With the Balacruf Crest, check the NW of the second area and west of the last area of Ascard's Ruin for 30000 Gald, Soul Blast, Strange Blue, Rain Maker and Retribution. Keep in mind that you need to the beat the left, right and left Golem at the second area in order to move on further.
