Numbers below are this site’s note IDs, not a copied guide’s numbering. Mark the actual ground sparkle rather than a nearby chest. Count collected shards separately from those delivered and reward chests opened. A Colosseum return belongs to Grandshelt, while Crystal Tower has its own group. Sources vary in floor names and some short directions; follow the named landmark and current access condition.

Check the gate before revisiting everything

Thunderclap has regular, paid-shortcut and upper-entrance pickups. Cave of Waters has a later north-exit route. Research Center clearance opens different rooms. The forbidden library balcony and second Psyche section require story progression. For Psyche, use the Tower’s magic-book return once available and retain a manual save because older missable claims conflict. These compact text landmarks are source-reviewed rather than an independently surveyed coordinate map.
