@VDX_360 great comments! I've gone ahead and updated those areas for clarity. I do agree Everbird is likely not required there and should probably be in the Misc. section but in the event folks are following the list I'll keep it there and just note your comments.

[VDX_360]

Clarity:

#61 is in the lake secret area, NW of Fifer's Spire.

#77 is confusing me. The secret spot on the SW corner of the forest continent does NOT require the Everbird (it has a tempest shield) --- that's using the long standing naming of the forest that has the Yggdrasil Leak. So is there an oddity in what is being called the "Forrest continent"

[Ramiel]

Boss, I'll link your guide in my achievement guide o/

It really helped me =D (I somehow skipped two mini medals, I will suffer a little tomorrow revisiting some of the places lol)

[GreedFeed]

... And that's all she wrote folks. As of the past weekend I have officially completed the game with all achievements as well as completed my documentation for mini medal collecting. Should you have any questions, comments, or would like to see any format changes just let me know and I'll see what I can do. Happy hunting!

[methosrocks]

None are missable

[GreedFeed]

@dannyaic I'll get my own screenshot eventually but I believe it's South East of the big center boulder

[dannyaic]

Awesome no problem.

Side note, I'm trying to find that mini medal in the neccrogond. If it's the pit room I think it is, I've searched every (I think) rock formation and can't find it. Do you know the general vicinity it should be in? It's the large room right?

[GreedFeed]

@dannyaic great catch, added now

[dannyaic]

I found one I don't think is mentioned in here. On the second floor of the building locked by the magic key is Asham, there is a mini medla on the floor near the imp. This happened at nighttime so might be related? Not sure.

[GreedFeed]

I went ahead and threw up all the locations for reference even though I haven’t uploaded images yet.
