How to unlock the Know Thine Enemy achievement in Visions of Mana - Definitive Guide

A bit of a warning, some people have found their trackers to get stuck even after killing everything needed, to be safe I recommend leaving Nemeses for last and creating a save on a new slot before you go around killing them all so you can keep track if they are progressing the tracker and hope none of the bosses bug you out as some of them you only fight once, the bestiary doesn't carry over for new game+ either.

If your game has already bugged, please check Dragonling post in the comments for a fix that has worked for them in getting their last enemy to respawn.


A lot of these enemies you will come across naturally if you smack everything in every zone you go into with maybe 1-2 having something different to them which I will note where I can. I will write out the bestiary in order how it appears in game and their location so it's easier for you to find what you are missing. If I'm missing anything of special note, please let me know so I can update!

I defeated Armed Griv Nemesis, but it didn't add to bestiary. Did not notice until 40 hours later when going for last achievement. So did a speed run new game plus to it only to realize bestiary doesn't carry over lol

I've matched every enemy on this list and my counters are stuck at 96% for nemesis and 99% for bestiary 😭

So one of them was killed, added to the bestiary in-game, but didn't count on the achievement counter.

Started New Game+ and comfirmed none of the list caries over. No idea which nemesis didn't count, can only hope it's one I hit early and that magically completes the counter for me.

Oh noes, that's two of you that have had this issue.

I don't know if this will help but with other games where I've had trackers get stuck I've been able to force them to pop by hitting the guide button, going over to game activity, hitting All Achievements then selecting the game with the stuck tracker and looking at the achievement list there. I will make a note on the guide to warn people that this seems to be a bit buggy and to keep track of their trackers/saves so they don't save over an enemy they might need to re kill.

*Update*
I had started a run through on NG+, resigning myself to doing a speed run, while my wife was doing some research on the achievement issue.
She found a post from a PS5 user who had this issue with their trophy. They discovered that after starting NG+ and creating a save, they reloaded their original completed save file (first run/chapter 10) and one of the previously completed entries in their bestiary was now missing. For them it was Armed Griv (similar to DwnTheRbbtHole8 above). They went back to the location AND THE ENEMY HAD RESPAWNED! They were able to kill it and the trophies unlocked.

I just replicated that proof. For me it was the Gluttonous Tirpel in the pasture that was mysteriously wiped off the list. I went there and sure enough he was back. Defeated it and the Expert Exterminator, Know Thine Enemy, and Visions of Mana achievements all popped. Huzzah!

I don't know how or why that worked, but holy hell am I glad it did.

I was on the run to max out the game with 1000 GS until disaster struck and I got blocked by this bug. My nemeses that bugged on me is called Greedy Tummsect on Pritta Ridge. I remember killing it early in the game - and it has not created the Bestiary entry...

I tried the method by Dragonling above with launching New Game Plus and creating a save, then loading my Completed Save File in and moving to Pritta Ridge. The nemeses in question has not spawned again.

This way I have 2 achievements that I cannot complete, therefore my 1000 GS run has come to an end :(

Today's patch had no fix for this bug neither.

This achievement should be labelled as missable.

By Goggs25 on 14 Sep 2024 05:38
It's not missable due to the fact you can't miss any enemies in the game, it is buggy though and someone has put in a request to change it as such.

Its missable if you go to far in to game because you need to lower some enemies health in order for other enemies to spawn you can't do that because you kill lower enemies in 1 hit. I have removed all seeds, put on default equipment and raised difficulty enemies still die to quick and unlike other jrps there is no option to tell you team mates to stand there and don't attack. Starting new game+ does not carry over your monster book.

I was level 99 when I had to weakened that one enemy to transform him, I used Julei with his lowest level weapon and nothing else on him, and I told my team mates to not attack by putting them on focus healing only. So again, it isn't missable, you can do it, I also did it on easy mode.

Well, I now have all other achievements of the game...3 remains blocked out due to this bug :( It is very, very bad indeed, such a wonderful, kind-spirited game that had this bad bug :(
I cannot make the Greedy Tummsect and his buddies spawn on Pritta Ridge, even the New Game Plus workaround method is not working for me.

Edit: Great list, but one note: for Parpoto you need to damage Marmpoto and then let it summon Parpoto (similarly to damaging Tonpole to let it evolve into Lizardon).

Original: Can you confirm Parpoto is in the Temple of Wendel? I've run through it a few times and haven't seen it yet so I just want confirmation before I continue trying to find it :)

By Chyld989 on 16 Sep 2024 22:20
Yes, it is there. I had to look up which one that was and it seems I missed out a small detail on it that I never noticed on my run. You have to smack a Marmpoto and wait for it call in a Parpoto, I hope that helps and I'll update to the guide to reflect that.

I've matched every enemy on this list and my counters are stuck at 96% for nemesis and 99% for bestiary 😭

So one of them was killed, added to the bestiary in-game, but didn't count on the achievement counter.

Started New Game+ and comfirmed none of the list caries over. No idea which nemesis didn't count, can only hope it's one I hit early and that magically completes the counter for me.

For the Gawker, i see "Floating Isle of Ulul" for spawn spot in the bestiary and can be found too in this zone.

To complete the Bestiary, you must defeat all common enemies, Nemeses, story bosses (including the post-game boss outlined in The Spawn of Calamity (90G)), as well as the Black Rabite for Rabite Season (90G). Once you have defeated every enemy, the achievement will unlock. Most of the ones in the "common" section are indeed very common, just make sure you kill each group of enemies as you pass through the story locations. However, a few are random spawns and can hide as different enemies (Shape Shifter, Shadow Zero, and Shadow Zero-One), while a few others will only spawn if you have specific side-quests active. Once you beat the story, compare your list with the list in the description of the Youtube video below to see which ones you're missing.
