Anomalous Achievement in Final Fantasy XIII-2
Anomalous
30Witnessed every possible Paradox Ending.
How to unlock Anomalous
There are nine total endings you need to witness to unlock this achievement. The first in the list can be done as you play through the game for your first time (as well as the third and fourth using Time Reversals, but you may as well come back after you beat the game and you're the strongest). The rest need to be done after beating the game and unlocking the "Paradox Scope" Fragment Skill from the Chocobo Girl in the Serendipity Casino.
The most difficult ending is probably #7. The rest really gave me no trouble. To beat this one, make sure you have a good Sen monster leveled to about 40ish. I used Bunkerbeast. With the Sen monster drawing Caius' attention, you won't have your attacks interrupted or take nearly any damage, allowing you to easily stagger and defeat him.#1: Fate and Freedom
- Paradox Scope = N/A.
- Episode 5 - Neo Bodhum (Year Unknown)
- In a Live Trigger conversation with Lightning, tell her "I accept this world."
#2: The Future is Hope
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to City of Academia AF4XX and use Time Reversal.
- Proceed to talk with Hope and Alyssa until they request parts of the Graviton Core. Turn them all in to Alyssa, then in the Live Trigger conversation, refuse the Artifact.
#3: A Giant Mistake
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to Bresha Ruins AF005 and use Time Reversal.
- Defeat Atlas without weakening him first.
#4: Mog's Marvelous Flan Plan
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to Sunleth Waterscape AF300 and use Time Reversal.
- As you did in the main story, defeat the Royal Ripeness w/ Snow as an ally.
- After the story scenes, once you can explore freely, approach the Royal Ripeness a second time and defeat him at his full strength.
#5: Vanille's Truth
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to Oerba Village AF200 and use Time Reversal.
- Make your way to the northwest rooftop and defeat Caius.
#6: Test Subjects
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to Augusta Tower AF200 and use Time Reversal.
- Make your way to the top of the tower and defeat Proto fal'Cie Adam.
#7: Beneath a Timeless Sky
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to City of Academia AF4XX and use Time Reversal.
- Proceed to talk with Hope and Alyssa until they request parts of the Graviton Core. Turn them all in to Alyssa, then in the Live Trigger conversation, accept the Artifact.
- Exit back out to the city. Enter gate to the Time-Space Interval with the Artifact you received from Alyssa.
- Follow along the path, talking to Yeul as you did in the main story, then defeat Caius in a 1-on-1 battle with Serah. Note that even on Easy Difficulty with a Level 99 in all 6 Roles Serah and Tier 5 monster companions, this can be one of the more challenging battles in the game.
#8: Heir to Chaos
- Paradox Scope = OFF.
- Go to City of Academia AF4XX and use Time Reversal.
- Proceed to talk with Hope and Alyssa until they request parts of the Graviton Core. Turn them all in to Alyssa, then in the Live Trigger conversation, accept the Artifact.
- Exit back out to the city. Enter gate to the Time-Space Interval with the Artifact you received from Alyssa.
- Follow along the path, talking to Yule as you did in the main story, then defeat Caius in a 1-on-1 battle with Serah. [Again, note that Paradox Scope = OFF for this battle.]
- Follow along with the events in Neo Bodhum (Year Unknown). [Now would be a good time to turn Paradox Scope = ON.]
- In a Live Trigger conversation with Lightning, tell her "I won't accept it."
- Enter the time distortion to A Dying World AF700. Follow along with the events as you did in the main story, then defeat Caius in a 1-on-1 battle with Noel. [Again, note that Paradox Scope = ON for this battle.]
#9: Secret Ending (Requires 160 Fragments)
- Paradox Scope = ON.
- Go to City of Academia AF500. Time Reversal is not necessary.
- Proceed to defeat Caius and the 3x Chaos Bahamuts as you did in the main story. After all of the same ending events, there will be bonus scenes tacked on to the end after the credits.
