Trouble unlocking 'The Calm' achievement

[Nuggies]

I literally just now finally beat the game on Monsoon for the first time (I obliterated bc I figured that would be easier than stressing over my build with Mithrix), I got my huntress skin but The Calm is still locked for me. Is beating Mithrix the only way to get this achievement? Still hype I beat it but kinda a shame it didn't count

Mithrix is the only way. Obliterating does not count towards achieving "The Calm".

Even the game will specify either beat the game or obliterate yourself to get the challenge done.
The skin unlock condition says that so you can safely assume beating the game means beating the final boss.

The wording between the calm and mastery unlocks is subtly different. Not even sure if a moment whole counts towards the calm.

Ah rats I guess it does make sense when put like that. ty guys I know now for next time

"Beat the game" is defeat mithrix and escape
"or Obliterate" is obliterate at the obelisk in the celestial portal after stage 8, I think beads count too if you can kill the scavenger but not 100% sure on that.

Yeah, if you are going for Monsoon skin, do not pick up beads. If you happen to lose to any of the twisted scavengers then you do not get the skin.

Also don't feel bad using artifacts to get an unlock for the first time. Command makes any run a god-run so use it if you have to. Hell, without artifacts, 100%ing the logbook would have been absolute torture.
