Location 1: Forsaken Realm Platform
The first Spirithief Bartholos is incredibly easy to locate. Simply teleport to the Forsaken Realm Platform Space Anchor in Nightmare’s Echo Great Tomb. Upon spawning, turn around 180 degrees and walk to the end of the pathway.
You’ll spot a purple floating Spirithief Bartholos at the path’s terminus. Approach and interact with it, then skip through the dialogue to collect your reward of 40 Stellar Jade. No mini-game required—just a straightforward conversation for premium currency.
Location 2: The Giant Spirithief Challenge
The second location requires more effort and offers significantly better rewards. From your first Spirithief location, return to the Space Anchor and board your spaceship using the “Auto-Cruise” feature.
Navigate to the southwestern platform as your destination. Upon arrival, you’ll encounter a giant-sized Spirithief Bartholos floating near a broken pillar. Use your Mistletoe ability to fly close enough to interact with it.
This creature presents a mini-game challenge: fly through 15 Rings of Whimsy scattered throughout the area. Each ring you pass spawns the next one nearby, requiring quick reflexes and spatial awareness. Successfully completing this aerial challenge rewards you with:
- A Precious Treasure chest
- 30 Stellar Jade
- One 5-star Relic
- The “Trojan Age” achievement
Maximizing Your Nightmare’s Echo Exploration
The Nightmare’s Echo Great Tomb of the Nameless Titan represents one of Version 3.7’s most significant additions. This alternative version of the Universal Matrix Great Tomb requires spaceship navigation, creating unique exploration dynamics compared to standard on-foot maps.
Beyond Spirithief Bartholos, the area contains Golden Scapegoat puzzles, treasure chests, and other collectibles contributing to your Stellar Jade reserves. The region unlocks during the Version 3.7 Trailblaze Mission “As Tomorrow Became Yesterday,” which concludes the Amphoreus storyline arc.
Tips for Efficient Collection
When hunting Spirithief Bartholos, consider these strategies:
Use Auto-Cruise wisely: The spaceship’s automatic navigation saves time traveling between platforms Complete during story progression: These collectibles integrate naturally into your mission path Don’t rush the ring challenge: Take time to orient yourself between rings rather than panicking Mark locations on your map: Prevents accidentally missing areas during exploration
What Makes Version 3.7 Special?
Version 3.7 “As Tomorrow Became Yesterday” released November 5, 2025, bringing the Amphoreus saga to its dramatic conclusion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Do I need specific characters to find Spirithief Bartholos?
No specific characters are required. The first Spirithief Bartholos is accessible to everyone who can reach Nightmare’s Echo. The second location requires the Mistletoe ability to fly between platforms, but this is a standard gameplay mechanic unlocked through story progression, not a character-specific skill.
Q2: What’s the total Stellar Jade from both Spirithief Bartholos locations?
You’ll receive 70 Stellar Jade total from both Spirithief Bartholos encounters—40 from the first location (Forsaken Realm Platform) and 30 from the second location (the giant Spirithief). The second location also provides a Precious Treasure chest containing a 5-star Relic and other valuable materials.
