Riviera: The Promised Land – Quick Guide to Elusive Items

General Tips

The new version of the game adds a feature that shows where to find items. You can find most items by looking around each chapter. Some items are hard to find. I’ll list some of the tricky ones to help you.

Thanks to the Dept. Heaven Wiki for their help. Let me know if you want a full list of items or if you see any mistakes. I haven’t found all the items yet.

Some tips:

• Check what items enemies drop before fighting them.
• Practice fights only give some rewards. The last enemy you beat drops the item.
• Bosses give good rewards. Don’t miss these.
• Visit people in town often. They give you items.
• To get chest items easier, finish the game first. This lets you turn off mini-games.
• Use each character’s special move once to get an achievement.

Elusive Battle Items

Fang weapons:

• Kill the hound demon last in its chapter for the first three.
• Chappi makes the last two. You need a chipped dagger from chapter 2 and an Aquarium Fragment from chapter 6.

Elemental orbs:

• Fire orb: Rose gets it from chains in chapter 1-6.
• Ice and lightning orbs: In a chest in chapter 2’s secret area. Get caught by ghosts in screen 3.
• Holy orb: Cierra opens a magic chest. It might have other orbs too.

Elemental crest and emblems:

Elusive Event Items
