SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered trophy and achievements guide

by

This manual outlines the process for unlocking every trophy and achievement in SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered. Although no trophies are overly challenging to acquire, some may take longer due to minor elements of chance. Luckily, the difficulty level is generally lower than most SaGa games, as you won’t have to finish additional content after the game to obtain them all.

Regardless of the trophies you don’t earn initially, New Game+ provides an opportunity for you to choose any scenario at your convenience. This feature makes it less demanding in terms of accuracy and reduces the amount of time spent on completing the leftover trophies.

  • Task: Fusion spells are arts that combine two different elements. You can equip two different elemental gear, like water and beast.

Another way is that if you know the combination and get it through dueling. 

Novice Duelist

  • Task: This is a story event that is not missable.

Enterprising Excavator

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

  • Description: Scrap an item for chips for the first time.
  • Task: Items in your inventory can be scrapped for chips, you will be using this feature a lot around the mid-game due to the 64 item limit. 

Inherited Strength

  • Description: Inherit parameters for the first time.
  • Task: Inherit parameters is a new system that can only be used if you include the new content. Party members who are no longer in your party can be linked with the Parameter Inheritance system. Which will unlock the trophy. 

Expanding Your Horizons

Practiced Hand

Good Problem to Have

  • Description: Reach your inventory limit by acquiring an item from an enemy.

  • Task: In the town of Vogelang, you can commission custom tools and weapons—though they come at a premium price. Purchasing every available item will unlock a trophy. You’ll notice many slots appear empty when first visiting the shop. These items only become available once your characters meet the required skill levels.

Rich for Real

  • Description: Have over 100,000 CR in your possession.
  • Task: In a typical playthrough, you’ll likely accumulate around 30,000 Crowns. To reach the 100,000-Crown trophy, consider creating a backup save file and visiting towns that exchange Chips for Crowns. Dismantle all unused equipment into Chips and convert them to maximize your total. If you’re still short, an alternative method is to play the Dig! Dig! Digger! minigame within its 10-minute window. Regularly excavating rewards can yield additional Chips and Crowns to help bridge the gap.

Meister of Chips

  • Description: Reach a chip circulation of 15,000.
  • Task: SaGa Frontier 2 features two currencies: Crowns and Chips. While Chips can be obtained as enemy drops, the amounts are typically minimal. When farming for drop-related trophies, your inventory will likely overflow with excess items. To manage this, consider scrapping unnecessary gear to convert them into Chips. An alternative method is to play the Dig! Dig! Digger! minigame within its 10-minute window. Regularly excavating rewards can yield additional Chips and Crowns to help bridge the gap

Sublime Spellcaster

  • Description: Learn all fusion spells.
  • Task: SaGa Frontier 2 features 31 unique Fusion Spells. To learn these spells, equip a Tool or Quell imbued with an elemental attribute – there’s a chance your character will master a new Fusion Spell after battle. If you know the right combination, you can also potentially glimmer the ability during duels. 

Splendid Soldier

  • Description: Learn all arts.
  • Task: This stands as arguably the most difficult trophy in SaGa Frontier 2, requiring learning every Art in the game. While some arts can be deliberately glimmer through specific duel combinations, success hinges on two key factors: high skill levels and facing formidable enemies to maximize the activation rate.

    As a dedicated player, I’ve discovered that some extraordinary area-attack Arts can only be mastered during regular encounters. Once the game has been conclusively finished, an after-credits summary will showcase my entire Art collection, offering me the chance to check my progress and savor my achievements.

Conqueror of Myth

  • Description: Defeat the griffin.
  • Task: The Griffin is a regular enemy in the Showdown! Alexei event, but it functions as an early-game superboss, boasting over 22,000 HP and the ability to easily wipe out an unprepared party. Unless you heavily overlevel your team, you’ll likely need to rely on New Game+ and carried-over gear to defeat it.

No Stone Unturned

  • Description: Pick up all lost items in the City of Night.
  • Task: In the scenario, Clash with Alexiel, you can turn off lights at the control tower. Doing so will show a ripple on the ground. If you manage to find all four treasures, you will get the trophy. 

No Man Left Behind

  • Description: Rescue all the miners from the collapsing mines.
  • Task: During the event, The Mines Yet Again, there is a time limit as you escape. If you manage to rescue the three miners as you’re escaping, you will get this trophy.

A Moment’s Warmth

  • Description: Purchase a Hot Stone.
  • Task: When you reach Weissland, you can talk to the general shop owner to purchase a Hot Stone. This is a quell and costs 10000 Crowns, which is pretty expensive on the first playthrough. 

Sage’s Bane

  • Description: Defeat the Lich.
  • Task: Starting past the Beyond Grand Valley event, you can visit the city of Laubholz when a chapter ends. During your visit, if you leave through the east exit, you can visit the Ghoul Tower. There is a puzzle of reaching the top of the tower, and after activating the trap on the top, the lich can be found as a mob that you can encounter in the middle of the dungeon. Encounter the lich in combat to get the trophy. 

Frogslayer

  • Description: Acquire the Golden Axe from an enemy.
  • Task: In the To Gustave’s Stronghold event. As you reach the castle outskirts, you can fight a frog enemy called the Hopper Dynast. This mob has a very low chance of dropping a Golden Axe when you defeat it. Roughly a 1/128 drop rate. If you get the axe, you will get the trophy. This trophy is a huge time sink and if you try to obtain this without soft resetting, your character will end up stupidly strong trying to get it. 

Peg Pursuer

  • Description: Acquire the Valeria Heart from an enemy.
  • Task: During the To Gustave’s Stronghold event, as you approach the castle outskirts, you may encounter rhino-type enemies. Among these, there’s a rare spawn that triggers a battle against bird-type foes called Pegs. To obtain this weapon, you’ll need to defeat the Knight Peg and Queen Peg variants—both of which have an extremely low drop rate, making this one of the most time-consuming trophies in the game.

An Assassin’s Pride

  • Task: During The Southern Fort event, you will need to have Johan die by winning his battles until his LP runs out to get this trophy.
