Chalices are a key collectible in Visions of Mana, as they determine how many Ability Seed slots your characters have to work with. That’s why we’re here to help you find every Chalice location in Visions of Mana with this handy guide.
Visions of Mana Chalice Locations – Where to Find Every Chalice for Val, Careena, Morley, Palamena, and Julei
There are a total of 20 Chalices to track down in Visions of Mana, with four tied to each member of your party.
The first three for each character are trickier to uncover, as they’re in treasure chests scattered across the entire game. The final Chalices, meanwhile, are all in the same place, but they can’t be accessed until you reach the post-game.
We’ve laid out the location of each group of Chalices down below. Bear in mind that it’s best to gather these as you progress the main story, but it’s also more than possible to backtrack and grab any that you’ve missed after you gain the ability to fly using Ramcoh.
All Chalice of Hope Locations in Visions of Mana
The first Chalice type is the Chalice of Hope. These belong to Val, and are much more spaced out in terms of when you find them.
Chalice of Hope 1 Location
The first one is found in Dura Gorge near the Ahrvet’s Pasture entrance. Enter the area, and then use the Wind Vessel to activate a wind gust that takes you to the upper level. Once there, head toward the treasure chest across the nearby gap.
Jump over the gap, and then open the chest to collect the Chalice.
Chalice of Hope 2 Location
The next drinking device of power can’t be accessed until you start to hunt down the Benevedons, and more specifically until you chase one to the Floating Isle of Ulul.
Go to Ulul, and then continue forward into the Isle. Once you’re southwest of the large lake, look for the treasure chest underneath a tree and surrounded by rocks.
Open the chest, and another valuable will be in your possession.
Chalice of Hope 3 Location
After that, you need to go to Dorpher Volcano. Once there, continue forward and then take the road that leads to the left section of the area. Follow the road until you have the option to turn down a path to your right. Take the right path, and then follow it all the way down until you reach a treasure chest.
Open the chest, and you’ll obtain yet another Ability Seed slot booster.
Chalice of Hope 4 Location
The fourth Chalice of Hope can’t be obtained until you enter the post-game of Visions of Mana.
Once you clear the game and jump back into your save file, you can then fly over to Illystana and go to Niccolo’s Shop. Once there, you can buy the final Chalice of Hope for 200 Niccolo Coins. If you’re short on this currency, then you can exchange any Corestones you’re not using until you have enough.
All Chalice of Loyalty Locations in Visions of Mana
Next up are the Chalices of Loyalty, which are tied to Careena. These are a little more evenly spaced out than Val’s, but some can be easy to miss if you aren’t careful.
Chalice of Loyalty 1 Location
The first Chalice is found down the staircase to the south of the upper level in Tatoh Temple. It’s easiest to clear the temple and then use air dashes to reach the staircase, running down the stairs to the chest afterward.
Open the chest, and yet another Chalice will be at your disposal.
Chalice of Loyalty 2 Location
The next Chalice is in the Wind Sanctum. To reach it, continue through the area until you’re on the floating island due south of the Longren entrance. make your way to the treasure chest to the right, near a rock wall.
Open the chest to secure yet another Chalice.
Chalice of Loyalty 3 Location
The third Chalice of Loyalty is in the Wendel Temple. Make your way up to the temple’s third floor, and then continue on until you reach the narrow pathway at its center. At the southern tip of this segment, you’ll find a treasure chest.
Pop the chest open and nab the Chalice to bring Careena’s Ability slot count up another notch.
Chalice of Loyalty 4 Location
Like with the last Chalice of Hope, the final Chalice of Loyalty can only be obtained in the post-game from Niccolo’s shop for 200 Niccolo Coins. Be sure to sell off any spare Corestones you have if you’re short on dough, and don’t be afraid to grind through some enemies for extra Corestones to sell.
All Chalice of Tomorrow Locations in Visions of Mana
Third on the list of drinking devices you need to collect are the Chalices of Tomorrow. These drive up Morley’s Ability Seed slot count, and are some of the easiest collectibles to find in the game.
Chalice of Tomorrow 1 Location
The first one is one of the easiest to spot in the entire game. Just make your way to the eastern Mylos Woods exit and you’ll see a treasure chest right next to it.
Bust open the chest to collect its valuables, and then continue on toward the next collectible.
Chalice of Tomorrow 2 Location
The second of Morley’s Chalices is just as easy to find. Simply head to the top floor of the Passagean Tomespire, and the treasure chest will be right in the opening to the next room as you approach the boss arena.

Chalice of Heirdom 1 Location

Open up the chest and collect the treasure to begin Palamena’s climb toward perfection.
Chalice of Heirdom 2 Location
The second Chalice of Heirdom is a little easier to find. Head to Log’grattzo and enter the Archives. Once inside, look behind the pile of books on the right side of the room to discover a treasure chest.

Chalice of Heirdom 3 Location
The third of Palamena’s Chalices isn’t available until you gain access to the Luka Ruins Undertemple.

Claim your reward from the chest, and then set off after the next collectible on the list.
