Exploring the world of Elementallis is already rewarding on its own, but going for full completion adds an entirely different challenge. While the game does a great job encouraging exploration naturally, some collectibles are hidden so well that many players finish the story while still missing several upgrades.
Heart Shards, Mana Shards, and Elementarium Ore are all required if you want maximum stats and full armor upgrades. The problem is that a few of them are tucked into extremely easy-to-miss locations, especially in later regions where vertical exploration becomes more important.
This guide explains the total collectible counts, how the upgrade system works, and where each region hides its major collectibles so you can fully complete the game without endlessly wandering around searching random corners.
Elementallis Walkrhtough Guide – Heart Shards, Mana Shards
To completely finish every collectible requirement in Elementallis, you need:
- 36 Heart Shards
- 32 Mana Shards
- 10 Elementarium Ore
Collecting all of them allows you to:
- Reach maximum health
- Fully upgrade mana capacity
- Max out armor upgrades
Everything listed here has been checked across multiple save files to confirm the totals.
How Heart Shards Work
At the beginning of the game, your character starts with:
- 3 Hearts
As you progress through the story, temples and bosses reward additional permanent health increases.
Temple Heart Rewards
Each elemental temple rewards:
- 1 Full Heart Container
Since there are:
- 7 temples total
you automatically gain:
- 7 permanent hearts
just from clearing temples.
Hydra Heart Reward
The Hydra boss also rewards:
- 1 Full Heart Container
This means your guaranteed permanent hearts become:
- 11 total hearts
after combining:
- Starting health
- Temple rewards
- Hydra reward
Maximum Health Calculation
The full health bar reaches:
- 20 hearts
Since you naturally reach 11 hearts through progression, you still need:
- 9 extra hearts
Each full heart requires:
- 4 Heart Shards
So the world contains:
- 36 Heart Shards total
Mana Shard Breakdown
Mana upgrades work similarly but use different scaling.
You begin with:
- 4 mana units
The full mana bar reaches:
- 10 total units
To fully complete the bar, you need:
- 6 additional mana upgrades
After calculating all shard requirements, the total number of Mana Shards in the game is:
- 32
Elementarium Ore Explained
Elementarium Ore is required for armor upgrades.
The complete upgrade path costs:
- 2 ore
- 2 ore
- 3 ore
- 3 ore
That means:
- 10 total Elementarium Ore
are required for maximum armor progression.
Because there are only ten in the entire game, missing even one can stop full completion entirely.

Most Commonly Missed Collectibles
Several collectibles are hidden in locations players naturally ignore during normal gameplay.
The most common missed locations include:
- Under bridges
- Behind waterfalls
- Around cliff edges
- Hidden cave entrances
- Elevated ledges
- Temple side rooms
The Ice region especially hides items underneath structures instead of placing them directly along the main route.
Best Tips for 100% Completion
Revisit Older Areas
Some regions become much easier to explore after unlocking later traversal abilities.
Search Below Platforms
Not every collectible is placed above you. Some are intentionally hidden underneath bridges and pathways.
Fully Explore Temples
Several players leave temple areas immediately after boss fights and miss nearby collectible rewards.
Check Every Dead End
In Elementallis, suspicious dead ends often hide valuable items.
Track Regions Individually
Instead of searching the entire world randomly, compare collectible totals by region to narrow down missing items faster.
Elementallis handles collectibles really well because exploration feels rewarding instead of forced. Most upgrades are hidden logically within the environment, which makes finding them satisfying without feeling completely unfair.
That said, the final few collectibles can absolutely become frustrating if you forget where you already searched. The game especially likes hiding important upgrades in areas that seem visually unimportant at first glance.
If you are sitting at nearly 100% completion, chances are your missing collectible is hiding somewhere small, hidden beneath a platform, or tucked into a corner you sprinted past earlier in the story.
