Chapter 11; Enemies: Ninja Dogs, Ninjas

For more help with the Tests of Valor check out this post.

Simple enough, every time you do choose the option continue and eventually you should get the achievement.

Sadly enough you probably won't have to go out of your way for this one, unless you're a Ninja master you should be dying a lot.

Also, don't forget to check the >>super guide<< in the forums for more help.

See “Eight Missions Completed”

For these two achievements, just complete the required number of missions on any difficulty. Importantly, you must complete four or eight different missions. You cannot simply beat one or two missions on four different difficulty levels to unlock these achievements. 

See “All Gold”

See “Master Ninja of Missions”

See “Master Ninja of Missions”

See “Master Ninja of Missions”

These achievements all require you to beat all of the Karma Attack Missions (missions 1 through 16) on each difficulty level. The difficulties do not stack. You'll have to beat every mission a total of four times. Once you complete one mission you are able to choose the next difficulty for that mission.

Now I’ll tell you some tips one each mission (note that this as the way I found it easier but each of us as different ways of playing and may find other ways easier):

Mission 1 – You just need to kill twenty ninjas. Try to kill the enemies from upstairs first and then take out the lower level ones.

Mission 2 – There is one worm and seven ninjas. Try to take out the monster first and then the ninjas.

Mission 3 – There are two waves. First, try to take out the rocket launcher ninjas and then the others. After that, a chest will appear with Karma Burst and your Health will be restored up to the red damage. Now a Godomus will spawn with some more Ninja. Don’t worry about the Ninja, they are not a threat here, try going under his feet and land a combo each time he ends an attack. The Eclipse Scythe combo worked really well for me.

Mission 4 – This battle is insane. You need to defeat Alexei with minions surrounding him. Equip the Eclipse Scythe and keep spamming him with the jumping combo. Its very effective against him and is a very good way of escaping the minions. The wind blades Ninpo is very useful because it kills most of the minions and they don’t bother you until they respawn. His grapple moves are very dangerous, so you want to be off of the ground for most of your time in this mission. Also beware of his “Tornado” attack - you need to do wait until the very last moment before dodging.

Mission 5 – Beware of Volf's running attack and spam him with the Eclipse Scythe jumping combo and ignore the Wolf Minions to focus on him.

Mission 6 - This one can be tricky. You have Zedonius as an enemy, so do the Eclipse Scythe jumping combo. Just keep dodging his attacks and at the end of each one, if you see an opening attack him, but you will need to be careful when he starts flying because when he finishes, he does an attack which is very difficult to dodge and takes most of your health.

Mission 7 – This time you will be facing Elizébet with some archers and incendiary shuriken ninjas. You will need to learn the timing for dodging her quick attacks then attack her with the same combo from before. Beware of her grapple attack, since it takes a lot of damage. Also, when she does that healing technique try to hit her as soon as possible because she will fall and stay in the ground for some time without moving.

Mission 8 – You will be facing Genshin with some rocket ninjas, and, if that wasn’t enough, you have no healing items. What you need to do is learn how to dodge every move he does and hit him at the end of them. Personally, I used the Eclipse Scythe combo, but before doing it I always pressed to see if I was able to hit him(and for a little extra damage) because you need to wait some time before you can damage him again from combo to combo, you can only take about 1/6 of his Health per combo and you will have to wait at least ten seconds to do the next one.

The fire Ninpo is very good here because it kills the rocket ninjas and it gives you some time alone with Genshin, and if you are lucky enough, the ninjas will drop Ninpo or healing orbs. You really need to watch out for his “Izuna Drop” grapple move because it kills you even if you have full energy. If he does that attack where he punches the ground, it takes almost all of your energy, so just restart the mission if this happens.

In order to get this achievement you need to get gold medallions on all of the survival missions - missions seventeen through twenty-four on Mission Mode.

You are awarded a medal for each 500,000 Karma, so that goes for:
- 500,000 – Iron Medallion
- 1,000,000 – Bronze Medallion
- 1,500,000 – Silver Medallion
- 2,000,000 – Gold Medallion

There are infinite enemies one this missions so the most important thing here is to get Karma Burst Multiplier (note that if you kill the enemies with Obliteration Techniques they won’t give you either multiplier or Ninpo and energy orbs) as soon as possible. Then, just kill the enemies with Obliteration Techniques and Ultimate Techniques because they give you a large amount of Karma, but if you see you Karma Burst Multiplier becoming orange, try killing the enemies with normal attacks again to recover the Multiplier. Some Weapon Ultimate Techniques only deal damage to one enemy or two (for example Vigoorian Flail), so I advise you to use the Windmill Shuriken Ultimate Technique in order to gain large amounts of points and to kill lots of enemies in little time so that you take full advantage of your multiplier.
