Achievement Guide

[Mxs10]

If anyone has any segestions or other tips they'd like me too add to this guide just post below

Hands-On
10 5 Grapple Kills

see 'Fatal Touch'

Man Handle
15 50 Grapple Kills

see 'Fatal Touch'

Death Grip
20 250 Grapple Kills

see 'Fatal Touch'

Fatal Touch
30 500 Grapple Kills

All the grapple achievements can be unlocked during the Giant Squid Boss battle. When the squid starts to turn the crewmen into Oilmen just use B,X or B,Y grapple combo's on them, it takes about an hour of constant grappling to gain this achievement.

Shish Kabob
10 Impale an enemy

Easily obtained near the start of the game, while rescuing A' kanna's crewmen, just grapple an enemy and throw him into the spike pillars

Enemy Appetizers
30 Impale 100 enemies

There are quite a few enemies which can be impaled near the start of the game while rescuing A' kanna's crewmen, and during the Bone Cleaver Boss battle. Just make a point of luring enemies towards any spike's you come across while playing the game and Impale them.

Now You See It, Now You Don't
10 Disarm an enemy

see 'Master Looter'

Master Looter
30 Disarm 100 enemies

Try and buy the 'Shield Strip' and 'Thief of Bel' One-Handed Combat Abilities early in the game, these are key to obtaining this achievement. When you start finding enemies with shields, first use Shield Strip then use Thief of Bel and then have Conan pick a shield back up, this causes him to drop his dual weilding sword, which the disarmed enemy will pick back up, allowing you to perform Thief of Bel again. Repeat until you eventually kill the enemy, then move onto the next enemy.

Rock of Ages
30 Kill 100 enemies by boulder throw
update thanks to Everharm

This can be unlocked by throwing boulders and other items like crates, vases, etc. Just run towards a group of enemies and when they start following you, run back to the item pick it up and throw it towards the enemy group, if your lucky you can kill multiple enemies with one item. Using this method should net you the achievement fairly quickly.

A trick to this achievment is to turn on the infinite armor power and stone skin power on the enemies, then a single item will kill them, as sometimes the item will only stun the enemy.

Free Fall
10 Kill an enemy by death fall

see 'Death Rain'

Death Rain
30 Kill 100 enemies by death fall

This achievement should be saved untill the Giant Squid Boss battle, simply get to the stage where the squid turns the crew into Oilmen, then grapple them and throw them overboard.
BEWARE - Do not throw the Oilmen onto the Squid as this sometimes stops the squid transforming the crewmen into Oilmen.

Bring out the Gimp
15 Kill at least 25 enemies during the Giant Squid boss battle

This will unlock while doing the Death Rain or Fatal Touch achievements.

Slice 'n Dice
10 100 dismemberments

see 'Meat Market'

Chop Shop
20 500 dismemberments

see 'Meat Market'

Meat Market
30 1000 dismemberments

This achievement can be fairly easy, I found the 'Blade Fury' Dual Wield Parry attack to be quite useful as it removes an enemies Head, Arms and Legs! Thats 6 dismemberments per enemy! Other useful moves include 'The Mercenary' Dual Wield X,X,X,Y, and 'Triple Heavy Strike' Dual Wield Y,Y,Y.

Parry Farm
10 Perform every parry kill move

There are 3 for each weapon style: One-Handed, Dual Wield and Two Handed. Simply wait near an enemy and just as his attack is about to hit you, press LT to block, then press the button displayed above his head either X,Y, or B, perform all three then change to the next weapon style.

Parry Assassin
15 100 parry kills

see 'Parry King'

Parry King
20 200 parry kills

Just kill every weak enemy that you see with a parry attack and you should have this achievement in no time. This should also help towards the Meat Market achievement if you try to perform the X parry while dual wielding.

[Mxs10]

Chained Attacker
10 Combo Counter reaches 100

In the last level there's a point where you have to push a pillar over to create a bridge, it begins to crumble as you cross it. When you get across, you'll fight alot of Oilmen. Use the 'Cimmerian Cyclone' Dual-Wield Combat Ability X, X, X, X (hold). This way you can make those necessary hits, just make sure you don't step into the black ooze.

Chain of Fools
20 Combo Counter reaches 325

see 'Chained Attacker'

Mob Massacre
15 Kill 5 or more enemies simultaneously

see 'Strength of 10 Men'

Strength of 10 Men (Secret Achievement)
40 Kill 10 or more enemies simultaneously

You can use the Void armour power during the very last boss battle, or you can use the Fire Rain armor power during the Serpent Queen Boss battle when she summonds several enemies, either way, just wait untill there are enough enemies around. This achievement is quite hard as all 10 must die at exactly the same time or it won't unlock.

Treasure Seeker
10 Find 5 treasure chests

see 'Filthy Rich'

Treasure Hunter
20 Find 50 treasure chests

see 'Filthy Rich'

Filthy Rich
30 Find all treasure chests

This Guide >Here< mentions the locations of alot of the chests in the game, but it misses the first two. At the start where the statues come to life, there's a chest on the far left and right sides of the area before you head through the door.

Select Hard when starting a new game and play from begining to end.

Master Conan

Unfortunately you can't start a game on this mode and unlock the Mighty Conan achievement as well, you must first complete the game on hard and then the King difficulty will be unlocked.

Master Swordsman
10 All one-handed blade attacks mastered

As you use your one-handed combat abilities you will build up a masterary, you can check your progress by pressing the back button, all the abilities which are not mastered will have an orange meter next to them. You need to buy every one-handed combat ability in the game and use each one untill you master it.

Master Dual Wielder
10 All dual wield attacks mastered

As you use your dual wield combat abilities you will build up a masterary, you can check your progress by pressing the back button, all the abilities which are not mastered will have an orange meter next to them.

Losing His Mind
20 Decapitate a captain with a shield

There is a one-handed combat ability called 'Head Pop' Y,X,X, perform this move while holding a shield on a captain 2-3 times, he will be unable to block it, once his helmet is destroyed Conan will slice his head off with the shield unlocking the achievement.

Untouchable
40 Complete a mission without taking any damage

Can be done on any difficulty and on any level, so just start the game on easy and play through the starting levels without being attacked, the achievement will unlock on the after mission stats screen. Alternatively you can complete the game on King mode and activate the invincibility cheat...

High and Mighty
10 Score 20000 points in a level

I got this achievement on the second level, basically you just have to kill all the enemies on a level. You get points for the amount of kills, dismemberments, impalements etc. and lose points for deaths and damage taken.

The Bloody Crown
40 Score 100000 total points

This is unlocked when you reach a total score of 100000 points, if you are going for the Fatal Touch and Death Rain achievements, you can spend some time gaining points during the Giant Squid Boss battle.

Awesome guide, Will get alot of use from this one for sure. Are levels repalayble or no?

[Everharm]

Levels are not replayable, stats do not stack from game to game.

ROCK OF AGES

This can be gotton by throwing all items conan can pick up, except weapons. I mean boulders, crates, vases, etc.

I just got it in the midnight raid level after crushing a captain with a crate.

A trick to this achievment is to turn on the infinite armor power and stone skin the enemies, then one rock/crate/vase will kill them.

[xXTheBiGBoSSXx]

freakin' nice guide unafortunatdly after beating the game i don t want to play it again...

[The Pants Party]

Just a heads up on an easier way for "Losing His Mind" -- you can decapitate a captain with the "Heavy Strike Finisher" by simply hitting Y-Y-Y (while you have a 1-handed sword and a shield, of course). It should take about four combos of that to kill him (on hard), and when you do, you'll get the achievement. Not sure why, since you slice him with your sword, but it worked.

[Djordje1]

How to disarm a enemy???? Pm me please

[Rioto]

you got to ''buy'' this move. its somewhere in the list with single blade atacks.

[That Black Kid]

Maybe everyone knows this but for the meat market achievement if you already beat the game on at least normal, use the Song of Death cheat. For the first three levels just use the body slam grapple. Each person killed with it loses all of his limbs, which will count as 5 dismemberments. I got 1000 dismemberments by the beginning of the 3rd level.

Thanks for the awesome tip!

[DreadfulCorpse]

Is this guide complete?

[KrAzY LuSo88]

hi i discovered an easier and earlier way to unlock the Chain of Fools achievement.when u first encounter the big gorilla in ACT FIVE - ELEPHANT GRAVEYARD,use the prison spell on the big ape,then Use the 'Cimmerian Cyclone' Dual-Wield Combat Ability X, X, X, X (hold).for some reason,the monster will never die(or explode)so u can do it as many time as u want.....(my combo went to approximatively 425)..........i done it on king difficulty with all the cheats activated except for the song of death.......

[aussiegamer]

sorry, my english is not very well...explain me how to do this..??? Armor power infinite is to set in the cheat menu but stone skin the enemy what does it mean.???

[xxGU1TARGODxx]

I believe that at least one of these achievements does stack from game to game. I just got the Death Rain achievement on the squid boss level. I had played through the game once before and tossed a lot of guys over the edge in the first couple levels.

On my second play through I did not toss anyone until the squid level and I was keeping count while I was tossing guys overboard. I got the achievement when I hit around 35 so this one definitely adds up from game to game. Not sure about any others though.

[W. Samuel Jones III]

I don't know if this is a glitch but the collection achievements (visa vis all treasure chests) stacked over all my game saves.

When I was down to the last 2 chests the achievement unlocked. I had collected the final 2 in a previous game save.

[Rewmac]

Do the in-game cheats disable achievements? For example I use master all moves to complete the game on hard. Would I still get Grapple kills achievements for example?

[Brothaa]

Well thanks for the guide. I thought that I would never get the death fall achievement.

[onephatguy]

Nice work, this really helped.

[xDAx AWESOME]

good guide

[miguel56]

thanks for this thread

[A 2rue boofer]

awesome guide next break i have ill pick this up and go for the 1k

[tastyhouse]

My question is if I beat the game and enable the "Master All Moves" cheat - will it automatically unlock the master swordsman, master dual wielder, master two handed swordsman achievements? Or do you have to unlock these buy mastering every move in the game manually?

[Shadowkiller-NL]

Yeah great guide .. but damn dont wanne start over again!

[TheExorzist]

The Gamefaqs guide is fucking useless since it DOES NOT list all the treasures. I just stumbled over a treasure chest that is definetly NOT mentioned in the guide.

Use the one from IGN. Seem to be more reliable.
