Annoying achievements

[Skinny Pete]

Rainbow's End and Pipe Dream are two CoM achievements, and they require you to lose a hero equipped with the Coat of Many Colors and the Miller's Pipe, respectively.

And you can't get them in endless so you need to make a human sacrifice instead. Up yours game. So I had to fight the Shrieker twice to get the trinkets back twice.

I don't like the secret ones where I need to check if I have but am too lazy to do so

What are you talking about? I got these achievements by sending single heroes in the farmstead, killing them with the trinket on and fighting the shrieker. Not too much effort, by comparison

Why do you think I posted this? I did exactly this and it didn't happen.

I equipped a shard hero (Occultist) with Both Miller's Pipe and Coat of Many Colors and sent him in to die solo inside the endless dungeon. It didn't pop up for me. 6 years later, here I am. I will now try to send in non-shard hero and seperately equipped 2 heroes to test this again.

Update: I got the achievement after the "on death" effects of the trinkets kicked in. They probably coded the event flag there. I had 2 seperate characters wearing one each and 2 additional allies. I went into endless, made the prograss bar almost at the edge of the next sequence. I watched them die for the achievement (sounds worse than I thought) then I killed the remaining enemies and got my items back. Otherwise I would have to deal with the shrieker.

TL;DR
2 non-shard heroes 2 achievement trinkets. Equip, go into endless, with a party of 4. Let them die and exit with the remaining two after collecting your items by proceeding to next level.
