All Achievements Walkthrough

I would first like to state, I had nothing to do with the creation or modification of this walkthrough. I have merely found this guide and decided that it was worth putting where everyone else could see it. You may see whom the gamers were when you click the link, but to aid in this cause I would first like to state the people involed in the guide making. Starlight126, drabik, dropK1CK ninJA, Ergo Me Smart and MalibuStacey85 (Xbox Live tags) are the official owners and editors of this guide. I am merely making it available to a larger crowd. Here is the link to a (mostly) text based guide. http://www.trueachievements.com/final-fantasy-xiii2-walkthrough.htm However, for each individual achievement I will also post a Youtube video for those requiring more. Just bear in mind, the TrueAchievements guide is what you should follow. It gives structure and will cut down on the "starting over" factor. Use videos as reference if you do not understand the text or are looking for specific ones.

Trigger Finger




This achievements is unlocked after obtaining five cinematic bonus awards. You should (but if not do not worry) unlock this achievement around the main boss on floor 51. Here is the video link for help,
Saddle Sore




For this achievement you must take 10,000 with a Chocobo. You will want to ride the yellow birds when griding this achievement, not the red ones. If you are using an xbox 360 controller, just rubber band your controller. This achievement may not pop until after you exit the Chocobo's back. So periodically just hop off and see if it unlocks. Here is a video to make your life easier,

You are required to land 50 pre-emptive strikes in order to unlock this achievement. Here is a video should you need one,

You have to win 10,000+ coins in the "Serendipity Casino". These coins are apparently easier to unlock via Chocobo races.Here is a video for reference,

threat facer did not unlock for me, hope i can close the gate and re-do that part of the game without restarting the game

Anomalous also requires you to see the other eight paradox endings

Also the Defragmented achievement is obtained by getting all 160 fragments, not for fighting every monster, although fighting every monster is necessary to get one of the fragments.

The Fragmented achievement is by getting all fragments in a single category, not "Crimson Memories" specifically.

The description for the Choco-Boco-holic achievement is a bit off, you have spend 100,000 gil at Chocolina's, not at the Casino
