Final Fantasy Resonance: All 99 Tablet Shard Locations & Rewards

Do trophies require all 99 Tablet Shards?

No: the cited trophy reference requires 89, while the full collection contains 99. Those last ten still have collection rewards, but a trophy minimum and a complete item list are different targets.

The shards appear as gold sparkles, rather than normal chest contents. Hand them in at Oblivion Palace, southwest of Kol, then collect the rewards. A threshold reached, a shard handed in and a chest opened are three separate states.

Use the 99-location checklist to find your current area. The list groups equivalent landmarks from the credited references; its IDs are local notes, because guides number some pickups differently. Region totals include return visits: Grandshelt includes its Colosseum, while Crystal Tower has a separate group.

Choose a completion goal

Goal	Requirement	On-site route
Recruit and finish personal quests	8 characters and substories	Character table
Win the cave challenges	15 Cave Masters	Cave entrances
Obtain Visions	26	Chapter-filtered directory
Obtain Espers	9	Summon routes
Restore the Legendary Arms	12 standard restorations	All components
Commission every character’s weapon	8 Adamantite and the crafting unlock	Sources below

Keep these lists separate. A Vision reward is not a new party member; an Ancient component is not a restored Legendary Arm.

All 25 Oblivion Palace rewards

The thresholds are cumulative delivered totals, not prices paid separately for each chest. In each chamber, match the Roman numeral on the chest’s floor plaque.

Chamber / slot	Total delivered	Reward
1-Star I	3	Vitality Charm
1-Star II	6	Earrings
1-Star III	9	Magicite Shard
1-Star IV	12	Stagger Ring
1-Star V	16	Dreadwing Mallet
1-Star VI	20	Compound Bow
1-Star VII	24	Magicite Shard
1-Star VIII	28	Astral Jacket
2-Star I	32	Cure Drop
2-Star II	36	Celaeno Fragments
2-Star III	40	Magicite
2-Star IV	44	Phantom Robe
2-Star V	48	Repeater Rifle
2-Star VI	52	Protective Gear
2-Star VII	56	Briar Edge
2-Star VIII	60	War Pick
3-Star I	64	Magicite Cryst
3-Star II	68	Mirage Jacket
3-Star III	72	Sundering Odachi
3-Star IV	76	Ancient Firearm
3-Star V	80	Adamantite
3-Star VI	84	Ancient Whip
4-Star I	89	Adamantite
4-Star II	94	Arch Drain
4-Star III	99	Lightbringer

Opening the first reward chest gives Princess’s Reward. The second memory requires returning 60 shards; the cited roadmap says opening every reward chest is not needed to trigger that memory. Keep the memory event separate from the equipment rewards.

For the Ancient Firearm and Ancient Whip, continue with their Chamber of Arms trials. For Adamantite, confirm Aileen’s crafting is available before treating the ore as a completed weapon.

All eight Adamantite sources

Source	Required action
Colosseum, Fledgling Battle 2	Win and claim its reward.
Colosseum, Brawler Battle 2	Win and claim its reward.
Colosseum, Brawler Battle 3	Win and claim its reward.
Merchant ship	Purchase for 35,000 gil.
Oblivion Palace, 80 shards	Open the corresponding reward chest.
Oblivion Palace, 89 shards	Open the corresponding reward chest.
Northern Olderion bay	Search with the airship treasure radar.
Rugged Mountain Path	Open the chest on the story route.

Complete Forger of Wills in Dilmagia to bring Aileen’s crafting service aboard the airship. The references place this quest in the chapter-5/6 window, so follow its actual availability in your quest log rather than assuming it appears immediately when you obtain the Enterprise. Each commissioned weapon consumes one Adamantite.

Missing a shard? Check the access condition

• Mt. Thunderclap: search both the regular route and Lid’s paid shortcut. Each has a different pickup; the second mountain entrance has another.
• Cave of Waters: the Lake Dorr return opens a route unavailable on the first pass.
• Grandshelt Colosseum: its shard is a return visit after the venue opens, not part of your first city sweep.
• Arcane Library: the forbidden-wing balcony becomes accessible after Nameless Ruins. The entrance-desks pickup is separate.
• Research Centre Ruins: the office and console-room pickups use the Level 1 card route; the gantry pickup uses Level 2.

For Fina’s Psyche, return through the magic book in the Tower of Mysidia once the story has opened that visit. A missing world-map entrance does not mean a new save is required. The checklist keeps the first and later sections separate so you can check the correct camp and clearing.

The credited launch location guide reports that shards remain collectible after the story. This is a source-based finding, not a claim that every patch was tested. For the story route through these locations, use the walkthrough.

A reliable cleanup order

First collect the visible shards while progressing. When airship exploration opens, visit missing sanctums and unlock required transport or radar upgrades. Return to the palace at useful reward thresholds, restore arms and commission weapons, then challenge the optional fights your equipment now supports.

Use the trophy checklist for completion objectives. Its local boxes are your notes; they do not inspect the game’s inventory or decide whether a reward chest was opened.

Save or move your shard notes

The location checklist saves independently of your trophy progress. Export it before clearing browser data or moving devices; import accepts only this site’s Tablet Shard backup format. Filters never mark a location as collected. Reset asks before clearing shard notes and leaves the trophy tracker alone.
