Achievements guide.
Achievements guide.

SPOILERS ACHTUNG

Can’t make in “guides” part because I don’t have pc version. When it will be fully made (I don’t know Jasker questline) smbd can copy that to full guide.

I command thee
Simple enough, no need to comment

Devourer of Puppets
Just play and you will get it

Beguile the Serpent Wyrm
You need to get Serpent crown for this before speaking with Graabak.
The crown lies in the end of Kogog’Aak dungeon. You need 4 Sunstone pieces to get it.
When you speak with Wyrm you should mention Serpent crown, ask the way to crush crucible of souls, ask him some questions about himself, but don’t ask all side questions or you will not be able to avoid fight. When he speak about boredom and wants you to entertain him, you must choose “I am your equal”, he laughs then there should be line “I released you from boredom... and now tell me what I want”. Also before that you can freely offer to free him (don’t know if it influence on getting 3rd secret ending).
If the line doesn’t appear reload. You better save before dialogue.

Raid the Imperial Tombs
You need to visit Imperial tombs I,II,III,IV to collect parts of Imperial staff.
Then you should use Anvil and open cage door with it.

Regain the guild
You should spare Nemek in Werewolf castle boss arena (you should kill boss first, then Nemek gives up). You will get it after you speak Krenz in Oracle chamber in Sura Lands, return to Thole and fight Blind demon

Restore House Malfagone
I didn’t play Jasker so I can’t say anything. You can wait until I finish Evia on hard and then begin Jasker on extreme (very long), but better ask others in comments if you have problems

Veterans Day
Possibly the most hilarious achievement.
I learned the way to get it from others but got entirely different.
1st way:
you should avoid fighting werewolves anarchists and go to Dura’Tyr.
You can freely kill berserker mobs, the achievement is only for those in Counsil.
Before speaking with Human-werewolves in counsil you should find and place 2 Moon totems (Kogog Aak and Moon wilds) in the circle with sculls.
When you speak you should say “may be I can cure you”. Zaar should mention that he found 2 totems. Then offer fair trial. Then choose not to fight them.
2nd way:
I don’t know how it works correctly (I mean I don’t know if you have to fail 1st way by killing anarchists before Counsil for this to work).
I got it during the Lower Kyalissar quest to obtain Werewolf Shaman Staff. In the end I chose to give the staff to inquisition Mages, they left without fighting and I got achievement.

Sympathy for Sura
You choose to betray Kiri in her quest to assassinate Tiberius. He will offer Falon soul. Complete his quest, gain Falon soul.
When you late arrive to Red mountains you should avoid fighting bosses with unique names, but better just to use demon form and avoid everyone. Follow quest marker and find the chief’s cave. Speak with Falon brother. After phrase “it cost me a lot not to kill them” you get achievement. After that you can freely massacre everyone without penalty, you bloody bastard. You can even proudly say to her brother that you killed all her friends.

The Great Escape
Just play the game

To be continued
The same

Relics of fallen
Best way is not to leave unknown pieces of territory.
Later I will edit screenshot with all teleports on world map so you can check what you missed.

Arachnofobia
Slay spider queen from Arashaad quest.

Catch this
Again Arashaad quest.
Outland caves where 4 entrances are near each other.

The lord of suffering
Saleen quest. You face demon in the cave (West part of Outlands). If you accept pact and kill man, you get evil karma, if you accept pact and refuses you get good karma, if you deny pact you stay neutral. If you fulfill the pact demon gives sword without fighting. If you want legendary armor pieces of Devourer you should choose one of two left variants.

Novice, skilled, mastered, first day
Just play. May be for 30 lvl you will have to finish most of sidequest. Speed running can cause you inability to achieve 30 lvl

Specialist
Just up any skill to 3 lvl

Zaar gets lucky
Fulfill berserker and totems quests and speak to Ataka. You will hear a funny dialogue. May be you don’t need both quest I didn’t test it, I prefered to finish both for xp.
You shouldn’t tell Ataka that you are demon. Evil karma don’t even show you such replic to choose.

Liberate commonwealth
Refuse to help Tiberius and kill him. Kiri gives you soul of Darius. If you don’t know what I am speaking about, visit Fallen eagle Fortress.

The eye of worlds
Depends on your karma.
You should do good thin in one playthrough and bad in second.
Third ending requires you to accept Mara offer to kill Krenz. When you meet him you should avoid attacking and choose line “ I can’t do it”. I don’t know if it is necessary to say Graabak that you will free him in your first meeting.

We must become stronger, we deserve to die, the end
Damage Avenger instead of escaping in Sewers until he retreats.
Other achievements don’t require anything.

Old school
Just turn on no marker mod at the beginning. If you play first time it won’t cause much trouble if you do all side quests. (Even in this mode marker works in world map when you choose teleport point).


The heretic kingdoms
Nothing special if you finished game at least once.

The last Grayclaw staff
Lower Kyalissar.
Speak with werwolves miners, you have to complete quest before Kiri/Tiberius quest, or you will not be able to open House Eagle doors.
In moon wilds you find secret door. Answer for riddle is Moon. No matter what you choose (fight or not fight Inquisition mages) you get achievement when you pick staff.

Demise of Demontamer
Continue Falon questline and you will face boss.

Espionage
You should complete Taimurian curse quest and replace Werewolf Shaman in Cave with shaman in Conclave before speaking with Evanger/Valkaryn.
Achievement doesn’t depend whom of them you speak to enter Penta Nera speakings.
You should choose those lines:
-I thought Krenze’s demon
-Other enemies we should worry about
or
-other threats (choice between them influence nothing)
Conclave line
Taimurian curse line

Unstoppable
Just break everything you can. The score continues if you start new game with new character. Score along with rat kills is general for your account.

Glorious erudition
Difficult enough. You should be cautious and try to visit every place. You will also need to get to the cabinet after Draconian in last Imperial Tomb.

Rat plague,Insecticide
Same as unstoppable.

Nobody expected this
You can obtain all pieces of inquisition armor in Kogog Aak.

Harmony in parsimony
Just complete all side quests, search coffins, break jars, also greedy choices in quests can help.

Darius and Falon
Kiri quest in Fallen Eagle Castle. Reloading in House Malfagon does not help, so you probably have to end the game with one of them and try another on the next run, unless you want to run Sewers again.

Wood n Wasp
North east - wooden puppet, south east - wasp. You can obtain only one of them.

Dracon Tamer
Imperial tombs quest with bonekeys. Third Shadowhand offers you his soul. To complete achievement you should deny him, take last bonekey and proceed to last Tomb. Kill boss and take his soul

Devil, Angel
2 playthrough. You should play 1 time good hero who don’t accept money and 1 time greedy bastard. Wings will become more bright as you go on your good/evil way. Always watch your karma (status bar below your strength-willpower points) to avoid unnecessary points of other alignment.
You should get 10 points plus to your alignment above another (you should have 10 points more evil score than good or 10 points good above evil)
P.S. General choices that influence Karma:



#Giving up Thole to Zaar give evil point. Warning Arahaad about nomads gives you good point.

#Always demanding hier reward leads to evil points, refusing of money gives good points

#Helping ghost in Spider Queen catacombs gives good point (you will always get there charity point, so if you play evil ignore ghost or just don’t return to him if you took quest)

#Helping man waste body of his wife - evil
Helping ghost of his wife - good point

#Helping Blind demon poison guild of steel - evil

#Reaper sword quest: accept pact and slay guy - evil point
accept and refuse killing - good point
deny pact from the beginning - no points

#Helping Kiri without money - good point
Selling her out in dialogue with Ataka - evil (don’t breaks Darius/Falon further)

#Helping Kiri slay Tiberius - evil
Demanding more from Tiberius for not killing him - evil

#Returning Wolf Shaman Staff to Taimurian miners - good, giving it to Mages - evil


(If I forgot smth add in comments)

Git gud, Got Gud
No need for commentary

Believer or Sucker
If you play Kalig it is better to waste 1k silver at 5 lvl, because you will get legendary quality two-handed weapon Miollnir.

Realm of Indecision

I don’t remember if any karma choices left when you arrive Kyaliisar. I completed werewolf staff quest. As I remember only Sura desert left without moral choices.

I just try to get Devil. I got 1 mercy for alerting Arashaad about nomads after I said them about dungeon path and 1 generosity because I helped a ghost in spider queen dungeon for xp. Also I refused demon pact for legendary armor (no points). I am afraid I will not get Devil.
atreides Sep 13, 2018 @ 11:12am 
I got "Devil" in chapter 2 when my karma' balance chainged on 0 / 4 / 0 / 6. If you want to get it faster, I recommend to freeze for a while some quests with points to positive karma (like quest with owl's amulet).

I have 1/4/1/6. Don’t know if any other karma quests left (seems not).
I think I'll make an Achievements Guide after I finish my Jasker's playthrough

Zaar gets lucky - you can't reveal that you are a demon. The Captain wouldn't want to go with Zaar with all those folks he carries with him :)

Oh, didn’t expected it. I confessed that I am demon on first walktrough but than reloaded for some reasons and refused to do it again.

Plus confession of demon inside is unavailable if you have evil karma.
Priest of Syrinx Sep 13, 2018 @ 3:14pm 
Restore House Malfagon - unlocked for me while simply doing the story (after Falon joined me; probably goes the same with Darius as long as you play as Jasker)

Good things to say I figured out:
- I fought Krenze's demon,
- What other threats... (don't ask about enemies of the Inquisition!)
- The Conclave has fallen.

As for the rest:

Unlocked for me by simply following main questline, after recruiting Falon. If you play as Jasker there is a little quest at the end that concludes Malfagon story but it doesn't seem to affect the achievement.

Third ending requires you to accept Mara offer to kill Krenz. When you meet him you should avoid attacking and choose line “ I can’t do it”. I don’t know if it is necessary to say Graabak that you will free him in your first meeting.
There is more to this - if you just ensure Grabaak's help he'll come and kill Mara but the Cruicible still remains a threat. It is possible that this good ending only works for evil characters or maybe it has something to do with the undead general Krenze mentions in the Oracle. Needs more testing.

Proceed the game.
I should admit I didn’t get Evanger achievement for some unknown reasons. So you better make prepare reload in Sewers.
This one is about fighting and defeating Evanger in the Old Sewers (after recieving enough damage Evanger fill flee and the cheevo should unlock).

Any chance for books locations? :) Still can't find them all...

Penta Nera espionage - I don't think you should ask about other enemies of the Inquisition (Mara says that Inquisition got rid of all enemies and she gets angry you didn't know about it), you should ask about other threats (then she'll continue about Market of Knowledge without being angry)

I got achievement with asking about enemies.
