His Name Is Cid Tonberrini

Maxed out your affinity with the Tonberry Blacksmith.

How to unlock the His Name Is Cid Tonberrini achievement in STRANGER OF PARADISE FINAL FANTASY ORIGIN PS4 & PS5 - Definitive Guide

After the third floor of the rift, the Tonberry Blacksmith will appear in the Hall of the Dark Crystal, functioning as an "in-house" Smithy. In order to max out his affinity, however, you'll need to complete a hidden sidequest.

For this trophy, you need two specific summoned monsters to appear: the tonberry and the cactuar. Not only do both of these monsters only appear from flawless summonstones, if you back up your save before stabilizing a new soul through DORU, you actually can reset/change an unwanted summoning by reloading that save to before you spent the summonstones, then completing a rift and doing it again, which should give you a new monster.

Summonstones drop from enemies and are found in chests, although flawless ones are quite a bit more rare than their standard counterparts. If you haven't been able to summon both monsters by the time you hit floor 30 in the Rift Labyrinth, it's recommended to avoid the Null Void and instead farm summonstones by completing other rifts.

There are a couple quirks to this process that you can use to make your life easier:
• The sets of arcanium chests that appear in the Hall of the Dark Crystal will actually refresh (maintaining their number/positioning, but changing their unlock requirements and gaining new contents) if you simply go to the world map using the Cubes, then return to the Hall from there. If you have sufficient arcanium materials, you can quickly open a lot of chests in just a few minutes in the hopes of getting some flawless summonstones.
• Additionally, the game does not autosave when you open these chests... so if you open all the available ones and don't get any flawless summonstones, all you have to do is use the PS button to quit the game without saving, start it up again.
Now, while you ultimately need both monsters for this trophy, you can start on it as soon as you have the cactuar. Make sure that she's present in the Hall of the Dark Crystal (swap out other monsters via DORU if necessary) and talk to her. The cactuar will ask for arcanium crystals, of all things: indulge the request and feed her using Magic Feed, then complete a rift and repeat. After three such interactions with her, the cactuar will give you the grudge knife, and once you have this and have fed, talked to, and quested for the tonberry (who asks for gil instead of arcanium crystals) a few times in the same manner, he will notice that you have the grudge knife and ask for it. Give it to him, choose either dialogue option for your "reward", then go to the world map and return to the Hall of the Dark Crystal, where the Tonberry Blacksmith will have an exclamation mark over his head once more. Finally, once you talk to the Tonberry Blacksmith, this trophy will pop.

Can confirm you can do this and stay on floor 21 with extra mode, Toneberry does not need magic feed at all. Hopefully you get them within the first 4 summons otherwise it can be a long grind

I had to feed the tonberry gil several times after getting the knife, so I'm not sure if you need to bother wasting gil on him until Mrs Pickles gives you the knife first.

You don’t need to give magic feed to tonberry but you do need to give him Gil.

Has anyone had luck getting a different summon by soft resetting? I’ve quit out 10+ times now trying to get my second flawless summon to be the Cactuar, but it has given me Dawn every time. Kind of a bummer since I got the Tonberry from my first flawless summonstone.

I accidentally went past 21 because I didn't know what I was doing, but managed to get this anyway without resetting by grinding locate and survive rifts up to floor 24. You don't even need to kill stuff to complete those. Might take a while to get more crystals for the cactuar if you don't have any, though.

I've given gil to the Tonberry literally dozens of times, it is bugged or do I just keep going? Or do I have to actually clear rifts in between instead of leaving to the world map?

I was playing without minding too much and got wiped at floor 17. Luckily I got the flawless soulstones and got tonberry and cactuar one after the other.

So what's the actual "reward" Mid the Tonberry gives you? He asks if you want Resentment or Gratitude, I picked Resentment and got something called Mid's Grudge. I've Googled it and have gotten no answer what it does.

I also had the worst luck, the Cactuar was literally the last summoned monster I got, lol.

I stupidly kept my first flawless summon after seeing an above comment but if you are re-rolling to get a different creature, but keep getting the same one, you just need to do another rift first to make the game swap them. Just know that you can re-roll the same monster even after doing a rift so you may need to do a few.

The first Flawless stone use seems to always summon the same monster. I reloaded several times and it was always the same one. Cactuar was my 2nd without reloading and Toneberry was #3.

This can be done in extra Mode. The summon stones drop rate does not seem to change in extra mode. The crystals you need to feed Mrs Pickles (the cactaur) will have a lower drop rate though. I did everything staying on floor 21.

Be sure to feed Mrs Pickles Magic Feed then talk to her for the option to feed the crystals. I wasted one not using the feed first. I think you only need to use Magic Feed once with the toneberry.

As you keep talking to the NPC vendor, he'll mention the presence of summonstones within the Rift Labyrinth.
You can find this items when you soul burst an enemy, in addition to being found in arcanium chests.

There are 3 kind of summonstones: normal, greater and flawless and you need a certain amount of them in order to summon monsters.
As soon as you summon your first monster, you will get Monster Summoner trophy_bronze.png 

You'll want to keep summoning monsters, as interacting with them provides very useful buffs. You can have a maximum of 4 in the Hall of the dark crystal, but you can change them anytime you want by talking with the NPC.

Interacting with monsters, will give you temporary buffs:
  • by feeding them with foods found on the rifts. You can feed each monsters once per rifta
  • By advancing their "quests" giving them the items they ask for (ether, potions, gils...). Once you end their quests, you will be able to summon them during fight using the summon bell
  • By completing their seconday quests (the ones that give you stat and affinity buffs)
There are 5 monsters that you'd like to have:
  • Flan: Less physical damage taken with his secondary quest
  • Bucephalus: increasing magic damage with his secondary quest
  • Cactuar: increase Arcanium drop rate and he is needed for this trophy.
  • Tonberry: also needed for this trophy
  • Molboro: his secondary quest will help you for Elixir Please! trophy_bronze.png 

Now, in order to get this trophy, you need to max out the affinity with the Tonberry Blacksmith. In order to max out his affinity, you'll need to complete a hidden sidequest that can be completed once you summon the Tonberry and the Cactuar.

Both of these monsters only appear from flawless summonstones. Flawless ones are quite a bit more rare than their standard counterparts. 
There are a couple quirks to this process that you can use to make your life easier:
  • The arcanium chests that appear in the Hall of the Dark Crystal will actually refresh if you simply go to the world map using the Cubes. If you have sufficient arcanium materials, you can quickly open a lot of chests in just a few minutes.
  • The game does not autosave when you open these chests. so if you open all the available ones and don't get any flawless summonstones, all you have to do is use the PS button to quit the game without saving.
Now, while you ultimately need both monsters for this trophy, you can start on it as soon as you have the cactuar. Make sure that she's present in the Hall of the Dark Crystal after summoning and talk to her. She will ask for arcanium crystals. After three such interactions with her, the cactuar will give you the grudge knife.

Once you have also the Tonberry, complete his quest a few times in the same manner and he will notice that you have the grudge knife and ask for it. Give it to him, choose either option for your "reward", then go to the world map and return to the Hall of the Dark Crystal. Now, the Tonberry Blacksmith will have an exclamation mark over his head: once you talk to him, this trophy will pop.

First, you need to summon two monsters: a tonberry and a cactuar. To summon both monsters you will need flawless summonstones. Most often, these stones drop from arcanium chests. Monsters are summoned randomly, and with each monster the required number of stones is doubled. So in the worst case you will need 65 stones.
Secondly, you need to perform several interactions with each of these monsters. Interactions appear after going through rifts, and sometimes after feeding monsters. After several interactions, each of which the cactuar will ask for arcanium crystals, he will give you a grudge knife. And tonberry, after several interactions, each of which will ask for 300 gil, will ask for this item.
After this, you can go through the rift or go to the world map. Then the Tonberry blacksmith will have an interaction, and after talking with him you will receive a trophy.

Don't even think about downgrading the dungeon. In no case. Otherwise, all dialogues and all progress will be lost. Nobody writes about this, but it is a fact. An idiotic fact, just like this game. I got into trouble and wasted my time...
