FAQs
How many playthroughs are needed to unlock all achievements?
You’ll need at least two full playthroughs to complete both Jude’s and Milla’s story routes. However, completionists might require a third playthrough or extensive post-game grinding to collect all items, defeat rare monsters, max out shops, and complete every side quest. Using a guide can significantly reduce this to two strategic playthroughs.
What’s the hardest achievement in Tales of Xillia Remastered?
Most players agree that “World’s Greatest Warrior” (defeating the Golden Mage Knight) is the toughest achievement. This optional superboss requires max-level characters, optimized equipment, mastery of linked artes, and solid understanding of combat mechanics. Alternatively, collection achievements like “Item Fanatic” demand extensive grinding and meticulous attention to detail throughout your entire playthrough.
