Stormed the Castle achievement

[Jeto]

Any idea how to get this? I've definitely cleared the Magical Wasteland adventure but didn't get it, so not sure if i'm missing something. Not sure where the Maven's Tower adventurer area would be otherwise

Also curious about this, might be the necessity to beat it when it gets amped up? I remember two days in the week where it got much harder, but didn't clear it then due to the lack of poison cures. I might try and keep the thread updated.
One thing that's weird though, I've cleared the zone but Mint had the "It went not good, not great, I aim for great" when she did complete it (and I got very few items from the run, too).

Same here, characters always seem to fail when in the area. I'll try to send them during boosted time and let you know

Magical wasteland seems the hardest I sent Xid and she cleared it but I didnt get an achievement I dont see anything labeled as Maven Castle, I got Magical wood and some ore, even tho it got cleared, makes no sense

It didnt work...
Maven Stronghold is day 45 event. And you need to clear then,
BUT unless there is some trick to it clearing this area seems impossible. You always get "Not bad, not great" result despite "Test" showing success

i didn't see any events but i wasn't reading then anymore.
i only have 2 things left to do, maven tower and getting everyone to FL 10, i can't get that one because Xid is bugged so i assumed that you somehow need to have everyone at 10 to unlock the tower

Just sent out all 3 heroes to it, all with a similar loadout (petrification, curse and poison resist for the roadblocks, mana and hp to clear, and one radiation potion), ALL of them gave me a "I failed" dialogue with less than subpar rewards.

So I did a couple test. On day 45 I always get 3 items (so 3 mobs get killed) on day 45 i get 4 items. It seems that the step that fails is always petrification check.

Yeah same here (but I just did it with Corsac). Gave him all of my potions on my Day 45 event and was projected to clear on test, and he gave me a fail dialogue + no achievement. Guess its just bugged unless we're missing another event of some sort.

We've noted this and will look into the issue.

This still seems to be an issue. It's the last achievement I need to get and I've sent xid and corsac out 3 times in one day fully outfitted with masterwork potions and they always come back with failed results.

That is weird. I got it on 1st try. Granted, i decked out Corsac with 12 potions. 10 Superrior Potion, 2 Cure Masterwork.

I want to say I got it but not on the first clear. One day, Xid just randomly said she made it all the way into the castle and then the achievement popped so I just assumed it was a random event like how loot is random. Been sending all 3 adventurers into the Magical Wasteland once a day every day and they never reported failure (made it all the way to the end thanks to you, veni vidi vici, etc.). I don't remember if it happened during the higher difficulty event. I think it was a normal day because I remember being mad that I didn't have Poison Cures on hand the first time it came up (because I sold them 5 seconds ago) so I sent them elsewhere. Also my usual adventurer order was always Mint -> Xid -> Corsac so Xid getting me that achievement instead of Mint was also something that made me think it was RNG.

Potion loadout wasn't special. Usual loadout was all Masterwork 1x HP + 1x Mana + 1x Petrification + 1x Curse + 1x Tolerance + 1-2 Radiation Tonics which I felt was the bare minimum needed to clear. They had plenty of HP and Mana to spare every run. Sometimes I threw in extra stuff like Dowsing Enhancers and stuff I had lying around but I don't keep track of those so I can't say if Xid had some when I got it or not. That said, I did pay attention to see if the adventurers ever mentioned the castle again and they never did for the rest of the playthrough. If it's not supposed to be random, then that sounds awful.
