Achievement Discussion

Discuss the achievements here.

I noticed that in the achievement Triumph of Humanity, that it says the human Baldur defeated Hell. So what this could mean is that there are specific achievements for which path you take, be it human or cybernetic

These achievements look incredibly time-intensive. Thousands of kills or items, etc. Very few for actually playing through the game, they all seem to have to be farmed.

Castrum · 08-19-2008, 09:50 AM

You get a lot of Points for just doing the storyline, and most other Achievements are gained from simply fighting guys throughout said storyline. Anything more than that is generally reserved for the high-end players who put in a lot of effort.

While it's not exactly Avatar, the majority of Points in the game can be attained fairly easily :-P

Remember, the storyline's only about 10 hours long. Compared to Bioshock's 20+ hours (from what I can remember), that makes two runs for 600 - 700 Points or so very quick.

Just a quick random question, but are the achievements attainable for co-op, and do i have to have one copy of the game or two?

Thanks.

JustCommunication · 08-19-2008, 05:59 PM

They're quite attainable from what I can see, but I haven't played too much co-op just yet.

You will need a copy each, as it doesn't support split screen, or two people playing on the same console, or even LAN - you have to do co-op over Xbox Live, with both of you owning your own copy.

It seems like the get X many kills on Y enemies are a lil like diablo. In the demo i killed a ton of enemies. Also the skill tree looks almost the same. It dosent seem however that a lot of the achievments are that haed like preveosly stated... Also sorry for misspellings my writings terrible right now.

Unrelenting Rage?

I can't seem to break 100. I've started to use my guns (low dmg ones) on trolls, to take my sweet time in downing them, hence getting in more shots, thinking 100 shots would be a combo. It doesn't appear so. Has anyone gotten this shooting? Playiner berserker if that matters.

Just read the booklet it states the Efficiency counter is a "time-sensitive indicator of number/power of hits". I'm assuming this is also your combo counter? I got hit and my Efficiency risen to 51, haven't been paying attention to it for long. But I'll keep an eye out now, and if I break 100 and Unrelenting Rage unlocks, it's full of win.

Confirming the Efficiency counter is your combo. Just broke 100 and got the achievement, I was hit multiply times and poisoned. Damage does not affect it.

Where do you get tokens at for the complete level achievements? Do you just get them automatically or do you have to go searching for them?

Get them automatically. I don't think you can miss them.

Valkyrie's Folly

bewarethefoopa · 08-21-2008, 08:29 AM

i'm not finding any of these tokens anywhere. i've passed the first level, hall of heroes, and have gone through the whole aesir part. now on the second level, i've managed to skip over the first battle arena and when i go to replay the first part of the mission i'm taken on a different route, away from the entrance to the arena.
anyone know if there's a way to go back and do this? or, if i were to complete the arena on another character, would it carry over between the two?

Slane · 08-21-2008, 09:35 AM

Posted in thread asking but might as well here for the guide when it is created.

To complete a charm, you need to complete the objective and insert the runes it ask for. Just completing the objective will not give you the charm completed. You will need to, add in the runes and do the objective to complete the charm.

And for anyone who has activated all the wells, how many is there?

Red Maw · 08-21-2008, 09:28 PM

If anyone knows, for the I'm Rich achievement, do we actually have to have 1mil in bounty or is there a hidden counter that keeps track of how much you've collected?

Azulgrave · 08-21-2008, 09:47 PM

I hope its one mil over time seeing as how I've gone through about 300k- 400k already T_t also valkyries folly = 100 times I unlocked it as well T_T anyone know if you get achievements for completing the levels after hall of heros without dieing?

All levels have achievements for completing without dying. Easiet way is in Co-op and let your partner do all the killing/dying. Just out of curiosity, I have yet tryed to attempt these, but can they be done in SP, or do they have to be done in co-op?

You kill garm just like a troll, hit each part one at a time till it dies. I used a laser gun on him, I didn't even try melee so I don't know if you can hit him like that or not.

birkhalter · 08-21-2008, 11:57 PM

Garm is basically immune to melee. Ballistics is the way to go.

I'm hoping the same thing, but until it's confirmed I'm going to try and spend as little as possible just in case.

ScaryGary Jr · 08-22-2008, 02:18 AM

You do not have to accumulate 1 million dollars at one time, there is a hidden counter that counts it over time.

Thanks for the info.

Siduakal77 · 08-22-2008, 05:44 AM

I don't know for sure, but I think ALL the counters carry over across characters.

I DO know for sure that kill counters do. (I got the goblin killer one after 13 goblins on my new Champion.. Defender was just shy of 2500)

Chizwick · 08-22-2008, 06:46 AM

Does anyone understand how to get a 7-piece armor set?
There's only six armor slots, so how can there be a seventh piece?
Unless they're counting a weapon, which I'm doubting.

And has anyone acquired a level three charm?

I've yet to find one, and wasn't sure if it's a high-level rare drop or if there's a specific trick to it.

I dont understand how the 7 armor set works either, could their be 2 parts of the same type for a set or something? Like 2 helms then one of the rest?

Slane · 08-22-2008, 09:47 AM

Only achievement that hasn't been gotten is the armor set. Charm has been done, and level three charm is orange, so expect it to be rare. Wouldn't think you would get it until 40's something, if then. Armor is probally the set you get when you hit 50 (best set for you) and probally takes a shit-ton of bounty to make.

Reaper_Grim · 08-22-2008, 03:06 PM

I'm wondering if that's specific to the path you choose at the beginning? I have no clue..i just got the game.

Alucrid · 08-22-2008, 04:10 PM

I'm having trouble getting "Show No Mercy" - Defeat 25 enemies with a single battle cry. Now my battle cry raises my attack damage, so I imagine that I have to kill the 25 enemies before it runs out? Right? I've definitely done that though, I've gone into the secret areas, activated it, killed all enemies and still had time left on my battle cry and no achievement.

Edit - Can you get the Unstoppable achievements by doing the mission select?
