Apprentice

Complete Game - Apprentice difficulty. Do not change the difficulty after the game has started.

This is the easiest difficulty in the game and as such is best suited for your first playthrough. This is also the difficulty that is best for getting the achievements for killing enemies with specific force powers and collecting Holocrons.

Sith Warrior

100

Complete Game - Sith Warrior difficulty. Do not change the difficulty after the game has started.

This is the second easiest difficulty in the game. This setting is available as soon as you begin the game. Since the difficulty achievements are stackable, there is really no reason to play the game on this setting other than for fun.

Sith Lord

100

Complete Game - Sith Lord difficulty. Do not change the difficulty after the game has started.

This is the second most difficult setting in the game. This setting is available as soon as you begin the game. Since the difficulty achievements are stackable, there is really no reason to play the game on this setting other than for fun.

Sith Master

100

Complete Game - Sith Master difficulty. Do not change the difficulty after the game has started.

Sith Master will unlock after you beat the game for the first time on any difficulty level. The difficulty achievements are stackable as well. This means that if you beat the game on Sith Master, you’ll get credit for beating it on Sith Lord, Sith Warrior and Apprentice. Last, you MUST begin a new game in order to get credit for beating the game at a higher difficulty. The reason for this is that when you continue the game you don’t play the prologue and thus don’t complete the entire game on that higher difficulty setting.

Overall, the Sith Master difficulty is not too difficult if you follow these tips:

Don’t use this playthrough to try and collect all the Holocrons, use the Apprentice playthrough for that. Only collect the ones that will benefit your character and fighting style.
Force lightning is your best weapon. It allows you to do damage from a distance and thus stay away from your attackers.
Force Grip can also be handy, especially if there is a cliff nearby. Throwing enemies off cliffs is an automatic kill and also gives you a “long way down” bonus.
Be patient! Charging into battle like you’re on apprentice difficulty is a good way to get yourself killed.
You don’t have to fight every enemy. Many parts of each level allow you to simply skip major battles. The three rancor battle on Felucia is a good example of this.
Force Repulse usually opens doorways better than force push. This is especially useful in the beginning of the Death Star level.
X IUHoosierFan has started a thread that discusses boss strategies. It can be found by clicking HERE.

Just to reiterate, when going from one difficulty to another, your talents, powers and combos WILL NOT carry over. You need to start a brand new game, hence the aforementioned collecting only holocrons which you really need.

Pushed

Defeat 100 enemies with Force Push

This force power is used by pressing and/or holding . This power is available as soon as you start the game. For all of the “kill X amount of enemies with a certain force power or combo” achievements, the best place to get them is on the prologue as Darth Vader. There are two spots that you can use that have a lot of enemies that spawn.

The first is right after you force push open the huge gate. An unlimited number of stormtroopers will spawn behind you after you pass through the gate. You just have to be sure that you do not have the camera facing the spawn point. I prefer this point since the spawns truly are unlimited and there's no way to accidentally stop them. If you’re still confused, more information on the spot can be found by clicking HERE.
The second spot is after you see a TIE Fighter crash into a bridge. If you cross the next bridge, wookiees will continue to spawn and you can kill them as you see fit. If you’re still confused, more information on the spot can be found by clicking HERE.

It’s also important to note that you CANNOT die in the prologue so don’t worry about your health. Also, you can only play the prologue if you start a new game. The only two powers that Darth Vader doesn’t have are lightning and lightning shield. Those must be done as Starkiller.

Gripped

Defeat 100 enemies with Force Grip

This force power is used by holding

and tossing in the direction pointed by either the

. This power is available as soon as you start the game. You’ll need to kill 100 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills.

Shocked

Defeat 100 enemies with Force Lightning

This force power is used by simply pressing and/or holding

. This power unlocks for Starkiller after completing the TIE Factory level. This achievement must be done with Starkiller. If after you’ve beaten the game this still hasn’t unlocked replay the TIE Factory over and over until it does. The reason the TIE factory is recommended is most of the enemies on that level are weak. You’ll need to kill 100 enemies this way for the achievement.

Repulsed

Defeat 100 enemies with Force Repulse

This force power can be used by holding

and then pressing and/or holding

. This power is unlocked for Starkiller after completing level “Raxus Prime, act 1.” You’ll need to kill 100 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills.

Impaled

Defeat 100 enemies with Saber Throw

This force power can be used by holding

and then pressing

. This power is unlocked for Starkiller after completing level “ISS Empirical.” You’ll need to kill 100 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills.

Stormed

Defeat 100 enemies with Lightning Shield

To use this power hold

and then press and hold

until you stop charging and your power bar goes yellow. This power unlocks for Starkiller after level “Cloud City.” This achievement must be done with Starkiller. You must upgrade this power to at least level two because at level one lightning does not arc out from it. At levels two and three lightning will arc off of the shield and kill nearby enemies. Do not use your lightsaber for these kills. Again for this achievement I recommend replaying TIE factory on apprentice difficulty over and over until it unlocks. You’ll need to kill 100 enemies this way for the achievement.

Grappled

Defeat 100 enemies with a grapple move

This force combo can be used by pressing

in close range of the target. However, you must first go to “Force Upgrades” and purchase one or all of the following combos: sith flurry, sith punt or sith throw. Alternately and a little easier, Darth Vader can also grapple by pressing

to force choke them. You’ll need to kill 100 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills using Vader in the prologue.

Launched

Defeat 100 enemies with Aerial Ambush juggle combos

For this achievement it is easiest to kill the 100 enemies with a leaping slam. To do this jump up into the air with and then press and hold the button. You will see "leaping slam" in the corner if done correctly. You can use Vader or Starkiller to get this achievement.

PROXY Won't Be Happy

Destroy 35 droids

When the game say “droids” it’s referring to the non-attacking R2-D2 style droids. A good rule of thumb is that if it’s attacking you then it doesn’t count towards the achievement. As you play through the game simply kill every one of these droids you see. If after beating the game you still don’t have this achievement there are several of these robots (usually 6) in the beginning of the TIE Factory level. You can simply replay the very beginning of this level over and over until you get it.

Rebel Leader

Defeat 500 Imperials

If you are using the unlimited stormtrooper spawn point in the prologue (see “Pushed” for an explanation) for kills then this achievement should come very quick. Stormtroopers, imperial officers, purge troopers, etc. are all counted as “imperials.” Simply kill 500 and this achievement is yours. Of note, I still got this achievement over the course of one playthrough without using the unlimited spawn point.

Bossk

Defeat 200 Wookiees on Kashyyyk Prologue

This achievement can only be done in the Prologue. Although there are Wookieess on Imperial Kashyyyk, as the achievement description says it must be the prologue. You only get one chance at this per new game since you cannot replay the prologue once completed. Refer to the location referenced in “Pushed” and you should be able to kill well over 200 wookiees there.

Bully

Defeat 25 Ugnaughts or Jawas

Jawas are the short, weak robed enemies. You will first encounter them on Raxus Prime. Ugnaughts are the ugly pig midgets you first encounter in the bar at cloud city. Simply kill 25 of any combination of the two for the achievement. This should come naturally over a playthrough.

Skilled

Earn 250,000 Force Points on a single level

See "Legend"

Expert

Earn 500,000 Force Points on a single level

See "Legend"

Legend

Earn 600,000 Force Points on a single level

You gain force points by killing enemies with force powers and combos. Frenzies and varying your force power use will increase the bonuses for the amount of force points earned. For these achievements I recommend doing the TIE Factory because it’s quick and the enemies are easy. It took me only two full playthroughs on apprentice (including collecting Holocrons) to get this achievement. It’s best to do this after you beat the game since your character will be much more powerful. Also there are several areas of the level that have a lot of enemies which will allow you to get frenzy bonuses.

Frenzy

Get a Frenzy x4 bonus

See "Sith Lord Frenzy"

Sith Frenzy

Get a Frenzy x8 bonus

See "Sith Lord Frenzy"

Sith Lord Frenzy

Get a Frenzy x12 bonus

Frenzies occur when you kill multiple enemies in rapid succession. The frenzy begins after killing 3 enemies quickly and grows X1 for every subsequent enemy you kill after that. Getting hit by enemies will not stop the frenzy as long as you continue to kill enemies quickly. I was able to get this on the Prologue using Vader, however the beginning of the TIE Factory when the 8 stormtroopers rise up on the lift is another good spot.

Holocron Collector

Collect all Jedi holocrons in the game

Refer to Shadowmask's guide HERE, for all the holocron locations. You can replay levels to finish these, but you can not start a new game.

NOTE: Currently there is a major glitch in the game that prevents you from getting the Holocron achievement. For more info on the glitch click HERE.

Corellian Star

Complete all bonus objectives on one level

You can do this on the TIE Factory level. The bonus objective of destroying 5 TIE fighters can be done when you enter the first open area of the level (with the spacecraft in the middle). You’ll see TIE fighters hanging on both sides of the room. Simply force grip these hanging fighters and destroy them. The other two objectives of collecting Holocrons and force points are really easy if you follow the guide and minimize lightsaber usage.

Force Push Mastery

Defeat 500 enemies with Force Push

This force power is used by pressing and/or holding

. This power is available as soon as you start the game. Simply use the spots listed in “Pushed” and kill 500 enemies with this power.

Force Grip Mastery

Defeat 500 enemies with Force Grip

This force power is used by holding

and tossing in the direction pointed by either the

. This power is available as soon as you start the game. You’ll need to kill 500 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills.

Force Lightning Mastery

Defeat 500 enemies with Force Lightning

This force power is used by simply pressing and/or holding

Force Repulse Mastery

Defeat 500 enemies with Repulse

This force power can be used by holding

and then pressing and/or holding

. This power is unlocked for Starkiller after completing level “Raxus Prime, act 1.” You’ll need to kill 500 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills.

Lightsaber Throw Mastery

Defeat 500 enemies with Saber Throw

This force power can be used by holding

and then pressing

. This power is unlocked for Starkiller after completing level “ISS Empirical.” You’ll need to kill 500 enemies this way for the achievement. Refer to “Pushed” for locations of easy kills.

Lightning Shield Mastery

Defeat 500 enemies with Lightning Shield

To use this power hold

and then press and hold

The Bigger They Are

Defeat 6 Rancors

Rancors are the giant two-legged beasts you encounter on Felucia. This achievement will come naturally if you kill every Rancor as you play through the game. You will fight four Rancors on your first play through Felucia and two Rancors on your second time through Imperial Felucia. Look at the boss strategy guide for tips on how to easily defeat these beasts. Of note, the Bull Rancor does not count towards this achievement.

The Harder They Fall

Defeat 10 AT-STs or AT-KTs

AT-STs or AT-KTs are the giant two-legged war machines owned by the Empire. This achievement will come naturally if you kill every AT-ST/AT-KT as you play through the game. If you still need more AT-STs/AT-KTs I found there is one you can beat over and over in the very beginning of the Death Star level.

Cannon Fodder

Defeat 150 Stormtroopers

If you are using the unlimited stormtrooper spawn point in the prologue (see “Pushed” for an explanation) for kills then this achievement should come very quick. Of note, I still got this achievement over the course of one playthrough without using the unlimited spawn point.

Sith Trials

Complete all Training Room challenges and Combat Modules

Challenges unlock after completing the training tutorial for a Force skill. Combat modules unlock gradually as you progress through the game. You must have faced an enemy type in the game before they can be faced in a Combat Module, meaning this can't be unlocked until near the end of the game.

Some people have had trouble with the Force Push trial. Upgrading Push to the max helps a lot, and try to push stormtroopers into the explosive barrels whenever possible. Charging up the Force Push will deal more damage.
Thanks to ThrawnOmega for the info.

Last, it is recommended that you complete all of these on your apprentice playthrough. These modules and lessons are scaled to the difficulty setting you are currently using. This means that trying to complete these on Sith Master will only cause you unnecessary frustration.

Sith Training

Complete all Training Room lessons

To get this, you must press and choose "Training Room". Then you will just need to complete following training lessons:

Push Tutorial
Lightsaber Flurry Tutorial
Grip Tutorial
Lightning Tutorial
Force Repulse Tutorial

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the second level, Raxus Prime, as Starkiller. Completing this level will also unlock the Force Repulse power.

Complete Level - Felucia, act 1

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the third level, Felucia, as Starkiller. This level's boss is called "Master Shaak Ti." Click here for strategy.

Empirical

Complete Level - Empirical, act 2

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the short, fourth level, ISS Empirical, as Starkiller. Completing this level will also unlock the Lightsaber Throw power. This level has no bosses, but you are introduced to the most annoying enemy in the game, the purge trooper. The best bet against these guys is to stay a medium distance away and use force lightning on them over and over.

Vapor Room

Complete Level - Cloud City, act 2

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the short, fifth level, Cloud City, as Starkiller. Completing this level will also unlock the Lightning Shield power. This level's boss is called the "Shadow Guard." Once this boss comes out of the starship, run back up the ramp you used to enter the final area and deal with all the other imperial enemies one by one. After they're all dead use force push to get the guard to the ground and unleash saber attacks while he's down. Rinse and repeat. If he's blocking your force push too much, get close and press

. Note that pushing the guard over the ledge does not kill him automatically.

Skyhook

Complete Level - Kashyyyk, act 2

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the sixth level, Kashyyyk, as Starkiller. This level's boss is called "Ozzik Sturn," he's just a glorified AT-KT. When you get to the end of the level and have to disable the skyhook, BEFORE you remove any of the conductors kill all of the enemies around the base. Free the wookies in the cages to use as distractions. Make sure you don't use the damage increase holocron. Once all the enemies are dead, begin removing the conductors. After you remove the second one, Ozzik will spawn on the backside of the skyhook. Before you fight him, grab the damage increase holocron and then just unleash force lightning on him and he'll go down very fast. After defeating him, remove the rest of the conductors to complete the level.

Infestation

Complete Level - Felucia, act 2

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the seventh level, Imperial Felucia, as Starkiller. This level has two bosses, the "Bull Rancor" and "Maris Brood." For the bull rancor simply keep your distance and let him charge you. Avoid the charge and then use your lightsaber to hit him over and over until he rears back up. Don't use force lightning on him because it doesn't work. Also don't get too greedy when hitting him with your lightsaber. Last while your doing this Maris will be trying to hit you. Don't attack her because you cannot damage her yet. After the bull rancor is dead you fall in a pit to fight Maris. Click here for Maris Brood strategy.

Destroyer

Complete Level - Raxus Prime, act 2

This story related achievement is rewarded for completing the eighth level, Imperial Raxus Prime, as Starkiller. This level has one boss "Proxy/Darth Maul" and one action sequence that requires you to pull a star destroyer from the sky. Click here for Proxy/Darth Maul strategy.

Redemption

Complete Game - Light Side

See "Revenge"

Revenge

Complete Game - Dark Side

You receive these two achievements for completing the game as the Dark Side or the Light Side on any difficulty. The light side ending requires you to defeat the Emperor. The dark side ending requires you to beat the battle damaged Darth Vader. Once again click here for strategies on how to defeat either boss. See below for more detail on how to obtain these.

After the cut scene where you are asked to help defeat the Emperor you are given a option to fight and defeat the emperor for the Light side ending, or go and slay the recently battle injured Darth Vader for the Dark side ending. To fight the battle injured Vader, jump off to the right of the platform that would lead to the Emperor shooting his lightning. Vader is on the right of the screen you will see a pretty small red glow from his lightsaber to show where he is, defeat him and enjoy the Dark side ending.

NOTE: If you don't want to do two playthroughs of the entire game, you can replay the last level, Death Star, and simply do the ending opposite of the one you picked before.

Worst Day-Shift Manager Ever

Kill 12 Stormtroopers as Vader during the Prologue

Simply kill 12 Stormtroopers in the prologue level (the very first level) as Darth Vader. Once again the best place to do this is right after you force push open the giant gate and go through it. See "pushed" for clarification on this spot's location.
