Create a potion using alchemy for this achievement. Can be gained after reaching the first town of Bayan. Take a left after you arrive from the teleport and directly outside of town is a woman who you can do a quest for; in return she teaches you to use alchemy to cure a horse. To brew a potion you need to open your menu and tab to the alchemy screen. Press to add two or more ingredients to the cauldron, then simply press to finalize the potion.

This can't be missed because you have to do this during the Alsorna tutorial missions. To create a spell, you need a carrier and an effect card in the two main slots. You don't need to add any modifiers for the achievement, but they will increase the power of the spell if you want to use a mage-type character.

While doing quests in Alsorna at the beginning of the game, you are required to do this for the Orc blacksmith. After talking to him, go to your inventory and select weapons to salvage to create the steel he wants (by holding and pressing ), after that you can then press on an item you want to upgrade. So long as you know a craft (from your upgrade page in the menu) and have the correct materials, you can press to increase the stats on an item.

Found in your potions/quest items section of your inventory, these are randomly picked up from slain enemies. Simply use one and the achievement is yours.

Buy the sheet music for the song "High Tides" from a merchant or musician and buy a drum to perform the song. This is the easiest song/instrument to get this achievement with as it only requires two alternating button presses.

You will get this while playing throughout the game, simply lockpick doors/chests anytime you come to them. The longer you play and higher level you get the higher the lock difficulty will become, so best done earlier in the game. Or if you decide to put skills into lockpicking this skill will still be pretty easy as the mini game is time based and putting skill points into lockpicking will increase the time you have to pick the lock. To complete the mini-game, simply press when the pick is over a catch in the tumbler you're currently scraping. Once you hit a catch, start looking for the next one. Each tumbler has a catch on both sides directly across from each other.

You can acquire the stealing skill book in the Cheznaddar sewers. There are some thieves down there you can buy from, but the book is sitting off to the side and you can take it for free rather then buying it. You can only steal from people who are not moving, example being guards, people standing idle at merchants, or listening to the town crier. The steal icon will appear while standing behind them. Can be annoying so save before and after each attempt or a couple skill points in stealing make this very easy as the time increase helps immensely. You need to wait for the gap in the three snakes lines up and press quickly. Move your thumbstick slowly to follow the gap in the outer-most snake at all times.

This skill is under the warrior skill tab in the menu and is actually called "Humbling Blow." It can only be done against humanoid type enemies, and is performed by holding to block, then pressing . Each level in this skill adds a percent chance to knock down the enemy so having it fully developed brings it up to a 65% chance. You can find one enemy and keep kicking him down for this achievement if you want to boost it quickly, but the opportunity of a one-hit kill after a Knockdown will likely have you using it often anyway.

Battle Cry skill is under the Warriors skill tab in your menu. Simply use it 75 times while fighting against enemies by pressing . It's a percent chance to stun your enemy, easy to do while fighting multiple enemies at a time. Will come with time while playing or if you want it quickly, you could invest a few points in it to make the chance to stun higher and run around one group of enemies until it unlocks. You will likely have to buy this skill book from a merchant, as I never found it while on quests during the game.

Archer skill. You start with multi arrow so there is no need to buy or find this skill. Simply kill 50 enemies while using multi arrow for the achievement. Can get it early off by running around the first island you get to (The Savannah) and killing the wildlife. Press to make it your active ranged attack.

Archer Skill. You need to first find or buy this skill as you don't have it to start with. Press to make it your active ranged attack, then just use fire arrow skill to kill enemies or wildlife until the achievement unlocks. The enemy needs to die from the fire damage so if you are to strong, your arrows piercing damage will kill them instead of the fire. This is best done early off or by shooting near the enemy so the area affect fire damage kills them.

Simply kill enemies while using magic spells of any kind. See "Grey Wizard" for how to create a spell. You must have a staff equipped to use magic. If you didn't kill many of the Varn or wildlife in the Savannah, this becomes easy later in the game for one-hit kills.

Create a summon magic skill, and summon a monster. Refer to "Grey Wizard" for how to create a spell - in this instance, you need a "Carrier Effect: Summon" card in the right slot, and anything but an Undead card in the left slot. You can just keep summoning over and over until it unlocks, but these creatures become useful later when you need to distract more powerful enemies.

These need to actually go off/be activated to count. To quickly earn this right after finding the skill book (which you really can't miss during the last quest of Chapter 1), use a spike trap on the mummies over and over. It only requires Level 1 in the skill, and you can keep picking the trap up and using it again.

This can only be performed on humanoid type enemies. They also have to be not moving. The island you start on (Alsorna) has alot of Grom you can do this skill on. Sneak up behind them (walk while holding ) and when the icon appears, press to assassinate them. Also on the Savannah island, there are alot of Varn encampments that this can be done with.

You will get this while working toward the four Guild-related quest achievements. See this thread for locations of the boards and the list of quests.

Complete all ten fights in the Arena. Received by doing quests for Basel, which you get by doing missions to get into the city of Hatmandor. Continue working for him and he will eventually tell you about the arena. Go there, complete all the waves of enemies and the achievement is yours.

Most of your experience in the game will come from completing quests. I did the bare minimum required for achievements (Guild quests only) and ended up halfway to Level 40 after beating the final boss. You can then do any of the many town quests to get you the rest of the way if need be. Be aware that if you beat the final boss while you are level 39, you may skip level 40 entirely due to the large amount of experience earned and the achievement will not unlock. Make sure you're only level 38 or have already hit 40 before heading to the final battle.

You need to go to 25 dungeons for this achievement. You don't actually need to explore the dungeon, just go in and come out. A map (in German) for the entire game can be found here (white/green dots) or you can use the individual area maps starting here and visit the blue dots. I would suggest waiting until you've beaten the game to finish exploring any you missed. Be aware that some of them may be locked (without the ability to pick) and you would need a town-specific quest to enter them. There are plenty of dungeons though, so I would just note the locations of these and continue looking for others. If those are the last one's you think you can find, head to the nearest town and start looking for quests to pursue.

One thing many people have run into here is getting stuck at 24/25 and not being able to get another dungeon to count. Me personally, I hit 24 and then visited two dungeons that did not count even though I know for sure I had never been there (the map was even fogged out before arriving and I had to pick the locks), then I went to "Cave #13" in the Vahkmaar Castle area which counted and unlocked the achievement. I would suggest NOT visiting that dungeon until you are at 24/25, as it may be a "fool-proof" dungeon that is always counted, since it is the last area of the game and the programming may expect it to be your last.

You get this quest called (The Runestones) from the Orc blacksmith in Alsorna. You can only do one at a time. Fetch the stone he tells you to, return it and repeat until you have all four and the achievement is yours. Can not be completed until you unlock the Swallows area during the main quests of Chapter 2.

Complete the Multiplayer campaign to unlock this set of achievements. Despite being called Multiplayer, it can actually be done on your own by starting the game while you are the only person in the room. The amount of enemies are tailored to playing in group though, so it may be quite difficult on your own. Money earned during this portion of the game is what you will use in Village mode.

Deathmatch requires 4 people to start, though it is team-based so two people can get a win each round. The more people in the game, the higher the required number of kills to complete, so stick with only four people if you can. To find boosting partners please use this thread.

This is a 1v1 gametype, first to ten kills. To find boosting partners please use this thread.

This is can be done with just 2 people. Run around the map and collect the blue gems, while ignoring the skulls and green gems until the area is clear of blue. Then hit the green gem to turn the skulls into blue gems and collect those. Clearing a section of all gems will award a bonus to make the game go more quickly. You need 150 points to win. To find boosting partners please use this thread.

See "Contractor" for more infomation.

Once you have 10,000 auras from the Multiplayer Campaign you can begin your Village. You can build 15 of the cheapest buildings and unlock this fairly quickly. As soon as you have the 10k in the MP campaign, start your Village as it will make money while you're finishing the MP stuff, and even when your system is turned off (though much slower in this case).

To transfer your character's money into the village coffers, open the stats screen and press .

After doing the quest "Elimination Job" for Basel, you will be approached by Tongue outside. He will tell you about Zask and unlock the "Murders Investigation" quest. Continue following the questline as outlined in the guide, and the achievement will unlock once you complete "The Transaction." It does not matter which ending you choose for the quest, the achievement unlocks either way.

Warning: While doing this questline, make sure you DO NOT exit Reesa's house after teleporting away from the Underground Temple before talking with her again to start the next part of the quest (speaking with Tongue). If you leave before doing so, the house will lock behind you and you will lose out on this achievement as the quest will be stuck until you talk to her (which you can't since you can't get back in her house).

These new maps can all be completed solo; however, they're hard as hell! It is highly suggested you either play a mage character or use a good mace with magical damage crystals in it. If you finished the original 1000, you should have a fairly high-level character to use but even so it will be a challenge. Enlist some help via the Achievement Trading Thread if possible.

During the expansion's finale, be sure to choose "Happiness. Help me find it" or you will not get to partake in this treasure hunt. Once you've made the correct selection, complete the quest "The Treasure" to unlock the achievement.

You get a crossbow early on, from the quest "The Mysterious Case of the Lost Chest" and can then begin killing things. If you're not a ranged specialist, you can respec for a while to help with this (turn left as soon as you reach the second island and look for a ghost in a lighthouse), or simply bring enemies down to one hit and use the crossbow to finish them off. Keep using this until you unlock the achievement and then go back to what you're comfortable with. There are about fifty weak bears and wolves on the first island, then you can kill the plants on the second island to finish up.

There is a total of 114 reputation available in the game.
