Loot is not covered here because u/Kataks and u/Valleyboy26 already created a very thorough and awesome loot guide[docs.google.com]. Read more about it on their Reddit thread.

Branching sections of the guide are categorized by the ending letter:
  • (Branch 1C) - The C signifies a converging branch leading back to the main path.
  • (Branch 1D) - The D signifies that the branch leads to a dead end.
  • (Branch 1S) - The S signifies that the branch leads to a shop.
Other notes:
  • The enemy spawns and positions re-roll every time you re-enter the floor.
  • There may be small variations in the story battles depending on your route alignment.

I just got to level 26 for the first time, and... Jeeze. There's no return point, is there? Can't I withdraw to go somewhere else for a while and then return to POTD before level 26? No? That's kinda brutal.
Ksrluke 9 Feb, 2023 @ 8:02am 
Hey guys! I'm running POTD on CODA, i'm around level 22, after my neutral playthrough. If I get to level 100 and there is no battle with Nybeth, there will be no achievement, right? Or can I get the achievement nonetheless?
Jedo  [author] 10 Dec, 2022 @ 12:21am 
ty!
tithin 10 Dec, 2022 @ 12:18am 
Great guide.
Jedo  [author] 9 Dec, 2022 @ 11:22am 
This guide is for Chapter 4.
sgpisci 9 Dec, 2022 @ 8:06am 
I'm on floor 74 where the Story Battle should take place. It didn't happen and the same went wrong with the 41 one. This is the 1st time it happens to me, i've been playing this game since PSP, and i cant figure out why. Is it a bug? BTW im at CODA
Jedo  [author] 7 Dec, 2022 @ 3:48pm 
You can try doing Shrines pre-Heim. As for the other sidequests related to achievements, they're kinda scattered all over chapter 4. The only one that firts perfectly after Heim is PotD.
Anti-Weeb Patrol 7 Dec, 2022 @ 3:44pm 
Cool thanks. So after Heim is the best time to wrap up all the side quests since that's the highest union level before getting to coda?
Jedo  [author] 7 Dec, 2022 @ 2:35pm 
@Anti-Weeb Patrol Union Level 40 so preferably after Heim. You can go earlier but I think the shop may not have summons at that point.
Anti-Weeb Patrol 7 Dec, 2022 @ 2:32pm 
When in chapter 4 should I go to do this?
