I meant the red wire achievement

[G]

Anyone know how to get this achievement? Googled and had 2 differing ideas - tank and survive another says to micro your units. Not sure how you dodge though. Do you just kill a unit with the blasting spell buff and not get hurt or tank it? How would you farm it?

[Nyanko]

Second this, one of the few achievements left for me to get and I'm not sure how to get it

[ZEUS]

Who where and how received the achievement!Plz HELP!!

What the HELL??? "I meant the red wire" poped just now on the "The Ascent" map. Well that is weird, I did not do anything out of ordenary, it just poped by himself.
Used Bravebark hero, he was fighting banshees and other dark elf enemys.
My other troops was not under attack at that moment.

Googled it and here is what I found:

"How exactly do you do this achievement.I have been trying on the last level,on casual,where on wave 4 some cloud stalkers get cursed by avengers.My troops defeat them from a very safe distance,and I repeated this about 50 times.Are there any specifics to do this?"

"Safe distance isn't surviving it's avoiding. It's just a case of playing enough with the soldiers in close quarters to the avengers bombs. It's one of those achievments that you get over time rather than by playing for."

Soo the answere is survive the blast of the avengers curse! 50 times, but it is cumulative.

i don't think the iron challenge for "The Ascent" has any twillight avengers(they cast the burst curse) though. I'll try grinding more unseelie court and see if I could get it. As what I can tell, each round I get a like maybe 5-10 curses but not all get close to my soldiers before they die. It'll probably take many attempts to grind for.

Sorry my mistake, it was on normal. Fixed it.

[G]

oh btw lenswer, can you tell me how to read the save file? I'm trying to locate my progress for the achievement. What app do you open the save file with

[lenswer]

The simple Wordpad will open it. :)

[Nyanko]

I GOT IT FINALLY, The achievement is to avoid the blast, not survive it. For this you have to have bladesinger halls and then make the blade singer immune the blast with their ability "Perfect Parry"

[G]

Looked in the save file and was wondering which line it was lmao. Only line i suspected it could be was "Last Service" and it was at 49. Tanked a few shots in unseelie court but it did not give the achievement. Went to the last mission and finally got it when a bunch of avengers were walking down the middle and spiders spawned from the sky. The avengers cursed them, my weirdwood tower smashed the ground and achievement popped up. Double checked save file, "Last service" at 51. My soldiers were not near the blast. Thanks for the replies :)

[Nyanko]

That's so weird, if you soliders weren't near the blast at all then you would get that achievement super early in the game, ah well don't question it and just enjoy the 100%

[G]

I don't know if "on the other side of a U bend" is counted as close. The displacement is like 1 tower's width so it can be considered close.
I don't think avengers cast the curse alot either due to low numbers and the fact that have to be close to a lesser unit (i think they have to be non-twillight elf) to cast it on. Either way im glad :) just hope this info can help out other people trying to get the achievement.

Unintentionally, I got mine at Unseelie Court, playing as Xin, mostly in the center and just putting arcane archers all over the place (trying "rambo style"). Seems very easy but I don't know if was luck or even some bug.

[Gear D4C3]

Puh that was an awful experience for me hunting that achievement down even much more than the "Rambo Style" achievement where it felt like only 5-10% of your kills are really counted.

Here I replayed roughly 10 stages, killing the cursed enemies from save distance, then near my soldiers, then having "Bladesingers" use their "Perfect Parry" ability when they exploded nearby or just tank it.
I also used Forest Keepers with "Ancient Oak Spear" sometimes killing cursed enemys themselves and triggering the explosion in save distance and sometimes they simply tanked it too without anyone dying but still after hours the counter from 47 wouldn't increase from any of this experiments.

Now I didn't did anything different but I got it in "Unseelie Court" on stage 12 where the "Twilight Avenger" would curse some "Redcaps", which exploded near my "Bladesingers" which did their parry move meanwhile.

What's really horrible is that only a few of 15 stages have the possibility where "Twilight Avengers" could curse other enemys into bombs and you must be really carefull to not kill them too fast before they reach your soldiers and to mix the streams of the enemy lines as often es possible and if it only triggers when your soldiers parry the explosion with a 30% chance then you really have to play a ton to get it.

I got it unintentionally on Unseelie Court too. I had lots of bladesinger halls to try to farm the dancing move achievement.
