Thank you for keeping this spoiler-free and in chronological order!

Made it super easy to play the game without the anxiety of having to play it all over again because I missed something.

The Calcabrina is also missable.

The bossfight in the dwarf castle crystal room with Brinas and Calcas.
Kill all the Brinas and Calcas until two remain (any two, can even be the same type).
Then wait and they will combine into Calcabrina.

Tower of Babil - First Visit

#84 Chimera
#87 Naga

Both can be found on B10 of the tower, in small rooms in the bottom right of the map, theres two small rooms right next to each other, i found each monster in each of those rooms.
Right room, using a siren got me the chimera instantly
Left room, naga i just got from walking around the room a bit

If Barnabaz-Z self destructs on you then you don't get a complete bestiary entry. I'm thinking that should probably deserve a special note, as I'm probably going to have to start a third playthrough to complete the bestiary because of it.

Nagas can be found outside Kokkul's Forge so they're not actually permanently missable.

MakoSipper 3 Mar, 2018 @ 3:00pm

By "Easy", I'm assuming you mean "Normal", or is Easy Mode unlocked?

Screeling 12 Jan, 2018 @ 11:47pm

Tried doing a search on google to check, but can't seem to find the answer. Do boss rooms count towards the map achievement since they are already completely revealed?

lylat [author] 6 Jan, 2018 @ 12:28pm

@Phantasm: Yes.

Phantasm 6 Jan, 2018 @ 6:44am

Are these in order of occurance?

~Vivi~ 1 Jul, 2017 @ 9:18pm

Salve, Hide, and Bardsong are all missable if you go directly to the Tower of Zot without talking to edward. I'm not sure if it was going to the moon that locked me out of the skills, but seeing as edward moves to the other town and is no longer in the infirmary that could be the reason. Just happened to me...-on second playthrough-
