The walkthrough
This is the ultimate guide to complete 100% of Final Fantasy 16
This is more than just a Platinum Trophy guide, we’ll get everything.
- All 50 Trophies including The Chronicler platinum trophy
- All items, even the not important ones, every Potion will be looted! Every gil will be collected!
- All Side Quests
Basically, we’ll farm everything, every Gil, material or consumable will be found and looted if you follow this guide. You’ll finish your first playthrough with plenty of materials to do anything you want in your New Game+ (Final Fantasy Mode Playthrough).
I’ve planned this guide to do everything in the most efficient order, so that we never hit difficulty walls and complete the full game with as little deaths as possible. Every upgrade that can help will be obtained at the right moment, you’ll be warned in advance of every ambush and trap, there will be an optimal strategy for each of the enemies and Bosses which require one.
- If you’ve never played a Final Fantasy game before, I guarantee you will Platinum this game without any problems if you follow my guide.
- If you’re a casual gamer or 70+ year old with bad reflexes, I guarantee you will Platinum this game too.
- If you’re a veteran FF player, I guarantee you won’t regret following this guide, it will save you a lot of time and you’ll probably learn a few tricks and hidden game mechanics.
We’ll start the game with a few basic combat mechanics, get some early upgrades and progressively add more tools to our arsenal and explore some advanced combat tactics as well as new game mechanics which only exist in Final Fantasy 16.
Settings
CONTROLLER LAYOUT
Wireless Controller Layout: Type B
Dodging is extremely important in FF16, so having the evade button on Circle is a must have. It is the most accessible button at all times, and it’s what you should be used to if you played other action RPGs such as Dark Souls, God of War, etc.
Also, having the main attack buttons on R1 + R2 instead of Square + Triangle will be a great improvement when we’ll start to do Combos involving Charged Attacks. You’ll have a much better control with R1 and R2, trust me on that.
LANGUAGE SETTINGS
Speaker Names: ON
There are many different characters in FF16, you might get confused about who is talking sometimes. Displaying speaker names helps a lot with that.
GRAPHICS SETTINGS
Screen Brightness: 10
There are some pretty dark parts in FF16, from my experience, there are still some really dark corners even with Brightness set to 10. So it does help to see things better in many cases, and it doesn’t ever feel too bright, even when you’re outside in broad daylight.
Game Performance: Frame Rate
The game looks just as amazing and more fluid with this setting in my experience. And when there are cinematics, the game still automatically bumps the quality to the maximum.
CAMERA SETTINGS
Camera Sensitivity (Horizontal) : 3
Camera Sensitivity (Vertical) : 3
I just feel that the camera is turning very slowly with the default setting of 2. In combat, we want to be able to look around quickly to see what’s going on.
Everything else I left with the default setting.
The Guide’s format
This is a double format Guide. There is a full video walkthrough AND a very compact text walkthrough.
The video walkthrough will contain more detailed combat tips, so I suggest you check them out.
Each video will have a list of timecodes with all the important moments in the episodes:
- Timecode for each Item obtained
- Timecode for each Combat tip and boss strategy
- Timecode for each Important info given
- Timecode for each Trophy obtained
All cut scenes and NPC dialogues will be included, but if you want to skip them it will be quite easy to do so: each video will be spilt into chapters, with clear labels so you can skip the parts you don’t want to watch or would rather watch on your own.
The text version of my Final Fantasy 16 Walkthrough should also be quite useful, it is very compact, and whenever the direction or explanation isn’t detailed enough, you can always check the video to get a clearer direction.
FAQ
Q: Will I get all trophies, including the platinum, if I follow your guide?
A: Yes of course. But much more than that. You’ll get everything you can possibly get in one playthrough. All items, weapons, spells, etc. Everything.
Q: Do I have to follow your character build exactly ?
A: No. You can follow this guide and do your own build and you’ll be fine. However, this is a very optimized guide and I believe the builds I use are very optimized and powerful. Some strategies in the later part of the game are specific to my build, so you’ll have to find your own strategies if you don’t have the same Abilities / Eikonic / Gear loadout. However, FF16 is very flexible with respecing. You can reset all your Ability Points at any moment for free, so you can copy my build at any point if you’re struggling.
Q: Can I follow your guide if I’m on PC / PS / Xbox?
A: Not yet. This is a PlayStation exclusive for now, but there will be a PC release and my guide will be 100% compatible with the PC version. The achievements will be the same.
Q: I love your guides! How can I support your work?
A: There are many ways to help me become a full time guide writer:
- ✅Subscribe to the channel
- 👍Like and comment every video
- 📢Share this walkthrough to your communities / forums / friends
- ❇️Leave a tip: https://www.tipeeestream.com/james-guides/donation
- 👿Join our Discord to get the latest news and join an amazing community
Q: Can I use the Special Accessories, such as the Ring of Timely Focus for example?
A: Yes. I actually recommend using the Ring of Timely Focus and not the “Auto-Evade” one, because this allows you to do other things than evading: Parrying, Countering, etc.

-
Wait for obvious Melee Attacks to Permafrost
-
Don’t stand infront of him, his multi slash abilities hurt a lot, always Dodge sideways, circle behind him
-
Always pre-cast Lightning Rod or Will o’ the Wykes to land Dancing Steel safely
-
After the first Stagger, a cutscene will occur.
-
Cinematic Strike
-
Blinding Steel can’t be countered, quickly Phoenix Shift to Barnabas and Dodge behind him
-
At 50% HP a cutscene will occur
-
Cinematic Clash
-
Use all Cooldowns to interrupt Gathering Darkness
-
Then it’s all about being patient, wait for Permafrost before you do any attack
-
When he does Quieting, he becomes immune to Permafrost, until that Red / Blue aura fades.
-
Be careful not to get caught after a Permafrost, thinking he’s frozen when he’s immune to it.
-
-
Always pre-cast Lightning Rod or Will o’ the Wykes.
-
Also be ready to quickly switch to Phoenix and circle behind him if he does Blinding Steel.
-
He often does Blinding Steel right after The Lord’s Measure or Gungnir sometimes, so be ready for that
-
-
When he does The All Wielder, you can circle behind him and drop Lightning Rod + Dancing Steel in time if you’re quick
-
