How do you get the mastermind achievement

[TheCurmudgeons]

When you get to a map with a boss - the game automatically takes you out of Overlord mode - and when the boss is dead and the rewards come up - master strategist is not in the listings but you have to do all campaign and shards. I dont get how can you get the achievement? Also how do you know which map you have done already - i'm sure ive done the same ones a dozen times tirying to get this stupid thing. I'll also ask about gunslinger - don't seem to be able to get this one either.

in your tavern click on your core to bring up mission info screen, not choose map, but other one. This will give you listings of all your stats on all missions you have played.

As for mastermind: are you doing real time strat by mistake? Mastermind only requires you damage mobs with only towers, not pets or hero damage.

RTS is a little trickier. I would recommend checking the wiki for exact details. Basically you cant use towers that do damage except for minions. And no hero/pet damage until the final wave.

Mastermind is an achievement that is unlocked upon getting the Master Strategist award on all levels. The levels required to complete are the original thirteen campaign missions, from The Deeper Well to the Glitterhelm Caverns. Earning this achievement unlocks the Sky City Crystal Skin. This Achievement can be awarded by killing the Boss, although you may not to harm a single standard enemy.

towers only no summoner pets

Real Time Strategist is an achievement that is unlocked by completing the Original Campaign (Glitterhelm Caverns and City in the Cliffs included) and the 3 Eternia Shards Missions using only summoned mobs and Overlord mode, except for the Final Wave. The three Eternia Shards Missions must be Mistymire forest, Morrago, and Aquanos. (Sky City does not count.)

summoner pets and non dmg twrs only (tower buff beam, ensnare aura, gas trap)

these are 2 very different achievments dont get them confused

[Softspokenman]

true but you can get both achievements at the same time you also cant use reflective walls and I think gas traps but not sure about gas

Thanks guys. But - Okay - now I am confused a bit - I did the deeper well many times using all sorts to see what let me get the master strategist at the end of the mission. I used Magic blockade, physical blockade, enrage, ensnare, gas, darkness, and reflection wall - I got the MS each time i used these. I guess i'll try again without the reflection wall, perhaps that is one that doesn't work. Nobody actually hit it in the deeper well they just walked through it. What does the sky city crystal skin look like - is that the fungi on a pedestal?

[TheCurmudgeons]

Yeah - got the mastermind - crystal skin looks like its from Star wars - cool. Later I'll keep trying for Real Time Strat. But I also still need to figure out gunslinger?

[Joedeendee]

glad to hear it. gunslinger i think is only damage mobs with hero. no towers. better check the wiki on that too though.

[TheCurmudgeons]

thanks Joedeendee.

[Joedeendee]
