Missing Entries — How to Find Them

Check What's Missing

1. Open Compendium in Purah Pad
2. Browse each category — unphographed entries show as empty silhouettes
3. Count the remaining silhouettes per category

Using Sensor+ to Find Missing Entries

• If you have the entry (even with a partial photo), Sensor+ can track it
• For completely missing entries: buy the photo from Robbie's database (if available) to enable Sensor+ tracking even without personally photographing

Robbie's Compendium Database

• Robbie (at the Depths research station) sells Compendium photos for Rupees
• If you missed a photo of a rare enemy, you can purchase its entry from Robbie
• This counts as having the entry and enables Sensor+ tracking

Quick Tips

• Photograph first, loot second — always take a photo before picking up or defeating something. You can't re-photograph what's already been consumed or killed.
• Photograph every new enemy type immediately — you encounter most enemies organically. The only way to miss them is to kill before photographing.
• Dragon part farming = compendium progress — when farming dragon parts, you're already up close. Photograph each part type during the same visit.
• Buy from Robbie — if you're missing a rare entry, Robbie's database saves you from hunting a rare spawn. Worth the rupee cost for completionists.
• Equipment photos from chests — photograph weapons in chests before opening them. Once in inventory, you can photograph from the item menu, but chest photography is the habit to build.
