Throughout your journey in Tales of Xillia, you will come across treasures left by the pirate Aifread. You first learn of these in Hamil by talking to a small child near the entrance to the village. Aifread’s treasures are hidden in various locations and are easy to identify, thanks to their unique shape and purple coloring. There are 50 treasures in total, and to make hunting easier, we put together a handy list.
