Imperial Route Achievment

[Scrabbly]

Does anybody know how to obtain it? is it bugged? Is something else wrong? Do I need to be on a certain difficulty?

[tempest.of.emptiness]

I have heard that it is bugged. I haven't tried to get it myself, and it has been a while (ie several patches) since I heard that, so my information is stale. I don't recall seeing anything about a fix for that in patch notes, but I might have missed it.

As far as I know the achievement is not difficulty-dependent, but I could be mistaken.

You need to die in the event to get the achievement.

how do u even die in the event? i did all the options after just getting out of footfall and all of em just return me to footfall

[Darkness Supreme]

I don't know for sure, but you need to choose the worst option all the time and go deeper into the route. Then there will be a dialogue where the Lord captain sends the last route to death. choose the option to die and get the achievement and game over

Iirc there were difficulty checks you have to pass during the "book" story, at the end of the event you, your ship, your entire crew dies, game over and you have to restart (this gets you the achievement). and if you do it, but turn back to footfall before you will all die, it'll be mentioned at a later point again (as a side note for rp fluff if you care)

The best time to try and right after footfall retrain your characters to fail. Save the game
before respec your team. If I'm not mistaken, it's tech and medicine that appears at the event.

If done correctly, the loading menu will appear. With the achievement.

What i don't understand is During the book on page 3 after reaching hermitage whether i pass or fail the medicine skill check the only option have is too return to footfall, and if i pass or fail the tech check it always says only 61% of the crew died, i can't go deeper

Ngl i probs need a step by step instructions in which numbers to pick since i am pretty sure i've done nearly every combination possible

For some reason, you can normally fly to the Imperium only at the very beginning of the second chapter, only after leaving the first system. In other cases, you are turned around after the first stop; I don’t know if it’s a bug or a feature. However, not always: there is successful evidence that sometimes you can fly in late acts. In any case, it is more rational to try earlier to ensure that you do not encounter a bug.
But you can fly normally to the Imperium only immediately after Football. Later you will be turned around after the first planet, and to achieve the achievement you need to do it at the end of the path.
Jumping requires a certain ship's HP. To jump to Skeet station it must be more than 50%. Jump to the Witch's Bane.
But you can fly normally to the Imperium only immediately after Football. Later you will be turned around after the first planet, and to get the achievement you need to die at the end of the road.

Yah my save is just after completing footfall and getting back my ship, i am in act 2 even with over 50% health on the ship i still only get the option to return to footfall no matter what i do, my only guess is that they broke it in a update. Other way too test this if i had another save that is just before the jump and can successfully do it

Ye it seems you can only do it on act II (or maybe it is based on the ship durability scrap lvl up dunno), at act IV with maxed durability you are not allowed to keep pushing forward until your death.

Well i figured it out, it is the upgrades to hull that stops you from doing it, the moment i removed the upgrades i could push on too witch's bane and then the next planet then die. Mind you i am still in act 2 but a little bit past footfall on janus

I just got the achievement

Did you have to also pass or fail the checks? Only have like 3 achievements left including this one so started new run, even just leaving Footfall for first time and got rid of hull upgrade and still not getting it. I tried that in combination with passing checks and basically respecing everyone to fail. So odd

Sorry few more Q's as I seem to be an idiot

There is only an initial Medicine check right? I pass that, then get a few more options, then have a few options of text then get something about vox channel and returning to Footfall at which point I get a tech check. Pass both, but obvs the tech check is relevant by that point. Tried this with hull at no upgrade, level 2 upgrade and nothing! Such a weird achievement!
