June July August September October Ending New Game+
JUNE

Any difficulty works for this guide, but Storyteller is recommended for grinding efficiency, since you earn Money, MAG, and XP much faster.

Follower dialogue choices do not matter; followers always rank up after each event, and the "correct" answer only gives a small amount of extra MAG. In town or on the Gauntlet Runner, the follower tab shows a lit-up pink icon for followers you can spend time with, and a grayed-out icon for followers whose prerequisite you haven't met yet.

Some Royal Virtue activities are partly random. Save before each one and reload if you get fewer points than this guide lists. Saving to a different manual slot each day is also recommended in case you need to go back.

Most Mask and Vessel crafting materials are random enemy drops, so craft Masks and Vessels whenever you can. Everything you create carries over into New Game+.

All achievements except Closing the Book can be earned on the first playthrough. Closing the Book requires New Game+, so any mistakes can also be cleaned up there.

🏆 Stunning!: Stunned an enemy.
🏆 Allies United: Met your contact in the Northern Border Fort.
The next Gold Beetle is highly missable. You cannot return to this area after tonight.
🏆 Shake on It: Obtained a Follower.

Optional: defeating the dragon rewards a weapon for the Warrior class. You cannot return to this dungeon, so this is the only chance to get it. The dragon is weak to Ice; try to have at least 2 characters at Mage Rank 2 so you can spam Ice attacks. Avoid using MP recovery items in this fight if you can, since you will need them for the first main dungeon.
🏆 Out of the Fire: Completed the Nord Mines.

The dungeon is very long and your MP pool is small. Equip the Mage's Magic Recovery passive on the protagonist; it restores 1 MP to the entire party every time an enemy is stunned or defeated on the field. In the second part of the dungeon, enemies spawn endlessly from the Trance Crystals, which gives you effectively unlimited MP. The Mage's area-of-effect basic attack also damages the Trance Crystal; if its HP gets low, enter and exit the Magla Hollow to reset it to full.
🏆 Calamity Averted: Completed the Regalith Grand Cathedral.

The pantry can be checked every day from now on, including days when you aren't traveling. It gives unique ingredients you can't get elsewhere, like the Gauntlet Shroom, or early access to some ingredients. This guide lists it on each day it is available.
The campfire can be used every night you are camped out on the Gauntlet Runner. It gives unique ingredients you won't be able to purchase until very late in the game. This guide lists it on each night you are confirmed to be camped out.

Idlesday is any day ending in 5 or 0. Use the Toilet every Idlesday to maximize your skill points. This guide lists it on each Idlesday it is available.

This seems to be a random drop; you might get MAG or Reeve instead. Interact with it every day until you get the Gold Beetle, or save before interacting and reload until you get it.

The Washroom can be used every day from now on. This guide lists it on each day it is available.
🏆 What's Yours is Mine: Stole an item from an enemy.
Steal can get you rare items and helpful equipment. Try to steal from new enemies whenever you come across them, and restart the battle if you fail to steal.

This dungeon isn't nearly as long as the first one, so MP isn't as big an issue, but still use it sparingly. Consider leveling the Thief Archetype to level 11 on every character to unlock Plunder Magic, then use skill inheritance to give it to everyone so you can steal MP whenever you're low instead of relying only on the Mage's Magic Recovery skill.
Throughout the dungeon you'll have to sneak past a specific enemy. You can fight it, but it isn't worth it, since there are no special rewards for beating it.
🏆 Dark Truths: Completed Kriegante Castle.

The dungeon is short and mostly a string of boss fights, but you need to defeat each one in 3 turns or less.
Halfway through, you'll choose between the Port Corridor and the Starboard Corridor. It doesn't matter which one you take. Each corridor gives a unique quest at the end, but neither counts toward completing all side quests, so the only reason to backtrack to the other path is a few extra items and experience.

This is extremely useful, since certain pieces are hard to come across. They cost 25,000 reeve each, and the stock rotates every day. Because Mask drops are random, the guide might not line up perfectly with your Mask crafting, so if you're missing a piece, check the stall and buy what you need whenever it's sold.
You can grind Magla Pills from the Papyrga enemy (the butterfly-looking enemy) that spawns at some of the Trance Crystals throughout the dungeon, starting with the one next to the very first Magla Hollow.
🏆 History Untold: Completed the Dragon Temple.
August 20
Optional: Edeni can clear the weather at the Land of Ceremony. If you don't use it, you'll get increased EXP and A-EXP, but you won't earn extra press turns during battles, so the choice is up to you.
August 21
If you already cooked this on August 20, you don't need to cook it again.
August 22
The main goal is to reach the Spire of Blind Faith, which always has the Heat weather in effect. Edeni's ability is useless here, since stopping at the Orbwise Path makes the trip take 4 days, so you'll have to accept losing the extra press turns in battle. The same goes for the Orbwise Path, but that isn't as big a deal since it's mostly lower level enemies.
August 23

August 25
The Heat weather isn't an issue until the final boss of the area. Bring an ally with Dekaja and Dekunda to deal with buffs and debuffs, and keep everyone in the back row the entire fight so the boss doesn't destroy you. A high defense character spamming Knight's Proclamation also helps.
August 26
🏆 For Science!: Performed a Special Experiment.
Keep track of the Mask materials you need and buy them from the Eugief's Stall whenever you need them. You can also buy Vessel materials from the Boastful Shopkeeper.
