Notes
  1. Ultimate Key is only available after entering the post game scenario. It's in the middle of the plaza in Havens Above after a few cutscenes. You can't miss it really. It's part of the story.

  2. When you enter Gondolia, on the left there will be an unmarked male trader. You can talk to him and he'll ask you for a lot of gold in exchange for the suit. Say no. Keep walking along the left path and go up the stairs to the left. Talk to the other male unmarked trader. He's the other guy's brother. They'll compete for prices. Keep saying no and going back and forth between them until they refuse to decrease the price any more.

If you didn't get the "Recipe: All Things Nice" before the postgame, the NPC that gives it to you is at the top of the staircase to the left of the casino entrance in Puerto Valor.

Some costumes have multiple parts to them. Read their description to find out what parts you need.
