The main difficulty in obtaining achievements in the game is the complete opening of the bestiary, lore book and gaining other collectibles. All this requires a fairly large number of hours to grind, which is why the total time for obtaining achievements is greatly stretched.

— Story (Hidden) achievements

These achievements can be obtained by simply beating the game from the start till it`s end and can`t be missed

— Gameplay achievements Part 1

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
14.		Brave by default	Complete a dungeon on Legendary difficulty'
15.		Must be Bored	Complete all dungeons on Legendary difficulty

There are eight dungeons in the game, their list you can find in previous hidden achievements block. Right before the start of a dungeon, you`ll have to choose difficulty level. Legendary difficulty will be availiable after beating dungeon on any difficulty. You don't need to explore them fully, so you can just run throught.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
16.		Looking glass	Start New Game Plus
17.		A Fantasy, Finalized	Complete the game on New Game Plus

New game+ mode unlocks as soon as you complete the game at once. But the thing is, that New Game+ in Battle Chasers: Nightwar doesn`t work as usual. Starting this mode, you will lose all your progress, but difficulty raises much more. Longer fights, deadlier enemies. You also get all the characters to select as soon as you reach Harm's Way, so you can pick your favorite team to use for the entire game. Your Lore Book, Bestiary, and Fishiary all carry on as well, though I'd still suggest completing those in the last step.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
18.		Apprentice Crafter	Craft an item
19.		Master Crafter	Craft 50 items
20.		Rare Crafter	Craft 10 Rare Items
21.		Epic Crafter	Craft 10 Epic Items
22.		The New Standard	Craft a legendary item
23.		Risk Taker	Craft an item with less than 10% success chance

Battle Chasers craft system is specific — you have reciples to craft item, but you dont have to get all ingridients foк it, you can try to craft item with materials you have, even if it`s not enough, but you will have less success chance. Adding more crafting materials will increase success craft chance and rarity to crafted item and removing materials reduces the chance of success chance.

Get 100% materials for common item, 200% for rare item, 300% for epic item and 400% for legendary. Crafting workbenches can be found all over the town and dungeons, so craft any item - weapon, armor or even potions to get this achievement.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
24.		Mystery Solved	Recover an item from the Mystery Box

Your first Mystery box can be found in Iron Outpost. But as I can see it appears randomly. These are grey blocks that sort of come alive with a glowing core when you walk near them. You can put a weapon in them, and then the cube will warp to a different part of the dungeon. There is no telling where it will pop up, so just search every section to find it. When you find it, you will get your item back at one quality higher.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
25.		Dirty Hands	Kill 500 enemies

Show no mercy. Counts every enemy unit

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
26.		Behold, My True Form	Reach level 30

By the time you complete the game and kill the final boss, you will reach approximately 27-28 lvl, so the rest of it you can get by replaying dungeons.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
27.		Angler	Catch 50 Fish
28.		Beginner's Luck	Catch an Epic Fish

Finshing is little mini-game you can see in some dungeons. Playing this game will give you some crafting materials, loot and some other useful stuff

All fishes as well as items have quality level so you need just to get epic fish. If you have purchased the Epic class of rod and reel from the Collector by this point, it will be quite easy.

— Gameplay achievements Part 2

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
29.		An Unstoppable Force	Acquire 1 of the Heroes Ultimate Weapons
30.		All out of bubblegum...	Acquire all of the Heroes Ultimate Weapons

To craft the Ultimate Weapons for each character, you first need to learn the recipes. These are all found on bookshelves in the Pale Cathedral next to the Northern Wintervein Blinkstation. From there, you need to obtain all the items. These are found through story progression, treasure hunts, and optional bosses. You also need a large amount of Epic Parts, which are found in loot containers and chests inside the later dungeons.

Garrison (The Cursed Blade)

• Artifact Blade — Garrison's starting weapon (can't sell, so you don't have to worry about losing it).
  
• Forlorn Shard of the Brave — Complete the "The Voice From Below" hunt.
  
• Desecrated Soul Shard of the Powerful — Earn 3200 Battle Marks in the Arena.
  
• 40 Epic Parts — Loot from Wintervein, Crimson Garden, and Mana Rifts.

Gully (Dragonkind)

• Aramus' Legacy - Gully's starting weapon (can't sell, so you don't have to worry about losing it).
  
• Dragon Scales - Defeat Lord Bevelros. This boss first shows up as a random spawn in the Iron Outpost dungeon. You will find it in a sarcophagus and it asks to be let out. Make sure you refuse and fight it for the "Shade of Bevelros" bestiary entry! Now keep running the dungeon until you find it again, but this time let it out. It will move to the Deadwatch dungeon, once again as a random spawn, but this time at full strength. Kill it to receive the item.
  
• Dragon Heart Phylactery - Loot this from the northern most chest in the Deep Snow (north of the Mana Rifts dungeon). Requires five mana shards to open (which are found in the dungeon).
  
• 40 Epic Parts - Loot from Wintervein, Crimson Garden, and Mana Rifts.

Calibretto (Calamity)

• Salvaged Behemoth Cannon - Kill the Behemoth, which spawns from an airship (see "No Parley").
  
• Twin Power Core - Complete the "Destructive Duo" hunt.
  
• Fate Stone - Drop from Deep Lurker enemies.
  
• 40 Epic Parts - Loot from Wintervein, Crimson Garden, and Mana Rifts.

Knolan (Ragnarok)

• Killington's Restored Cane - Complete the "The Gentleman" hunt.
  
• 2 Phylactery - Drop from Ancient Lich enemies.
  
• 2 Elemental Core - Drop from Greater Ice Elemental enemies.
  
• 40 Epic Parts - Loot from Wintervein, Crimson Garden, and Mana Rifts.

Red Monika (Destiny and Destruction)

• Resplendent Pistol Handles - Found during a treasure hunt started by looting the largest chest in The Winding (dig spot by the three small lakes in the north).
  
• Artificer's Revolver Components - The next step for the treasure hunt above. Found in a fishing spot at the Pointe Break Cantina. This fish won't bite unless you use the Level 24 bait from the Fishmonger (or better).
  
• Living Stone Slab - Drop from Stone Gargoyle enemies.
  
• 40 Epic Parts - Loot from Wintervein, Crimson Garden, and Mana Rifts.

Alumon (Argeas' Hallowed Bulwark)

• Argeas' Ruined Bulwark - After getting the Deadheart, go to Banog Cave in Forest Vale and switch to the shadow realm to loot it.
  
• Malefic Blood Essence - Complete the "The Hunger" hunt.
  
• Fate Stone - Drop from Deep Lurker enemies.
  
• 40 Epic Parts - Loot from Wintervein, Crimson Garden, and Mana Rifts.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
31.		Battle Ready	Unlock a Level 3 Battle Burst
32.		Mass Ruckus	Unlock All Battle Bursts

After you finish the dungeon The Dig (I was Level 16, not sure if that matters), the Beastmaster will chat with you and tell you the requirements of each character's Level 3 Battle Burst. Some are a bit vague, some very direct. They are as follows:

• Calibretto: Kill the Ancient Construct Alpha at the Stonegrove Ruins, west of Strongmont dungeon. This is a Level 20 boss and has no special requirements to summon.
  
• Garrison: You need to earn at least 600 Battle Marks in the Arena to earn the Tenets of the Blademaster reward. See "Are You Not Entertained" for more info.
  
• Gully: Continue to do battle. I only needed to do one more battle, so I'm not sure what the exact requirement is for this one. Could just be level related.
  
• Knolan: The Enchantress will help you with this one. She gives you the first piece of the Time Warp spell. The other two pieces are found in Deadwatch (mini-boss room) and Strongmont (first room).
  
• Red Monika: Kill 12 Lycelot Bomber type enemies (found in Ironwood, Path of Fangs, The Dig, etc). She doesn't have to get the killing blow or even be in the party at the time to get credit, and I think it even takes into account ones you killed prior to getting this task.
  
• Alumon: You need to kill Caldeus at the Tomb of Caldeus in the Southern Wilds. However, first you need to find his skull in the Deadwatch dungeon. I assume the location is random, but mine was in the second to last room. Once you have the skull, summon and kill this Level 20 boss.
  Once you meet a requirement, her building with have an exclamation point above it showing you've unlocked a new Burst, and you'll also get a journal entry under Secondary Objectives.

— Collectible achievements

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
33.		Ch-ch-ch-changes!	Unlock a Hero Skin
34.		Cosplaying	Unlock all Hero Skin

There is one extra skin per character to unlock in the game. Each of these is purchased from the Collector for 100 shadow coins. You'll get a few hundred coins playing the game (killing bosses) and the rest by selling fish to the Fishmonger as you try to finish up the Fishiary.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
35.		Fish Watching	Complete the Fishiary

As you go through the story, you will find fishing spots in the dungeons and exploration areas. You can only fish once all the monsters in the room are defeated. Generally, each new dungeon you come to will generally have a few new fish to catch. Unfortunately, the fishing mini-game is not perfect and there are only a few different shadow shapes in the water, so it's not that easy to tell what fish you'll actually catch. Early in the game, invest a few shadow coins to purchase the Epic rod and bait (Level 19 items but your characters can equip fishing gear at any level). This will serve you until much later in the game, when the Collector gets new Legendary fishing equipment (Level 30). Those showed up when I was Level 27 and had completed the Crimson Gardens.

The best spot to grind this out is the Fishmonger's Wharf. The fishing spots here can have all the Epic fish, as well as the Legendary book that is at the top of the Fishiary (the shadow of this will still be a fish). To reset the fishing spots, head back to Harm's Way and rest, then come back and fish all four again until you've completed the book.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
36.		Little Game Hunter	Complete 50% of the Bestiary
37.		Big Game Hunter	Complete 100% of the Bestiary

Missable! As far as I can tell, the only monster you can miss is the Shade of Bevelros. You find this monster as a random spawn in the Iron Outpost. You have the option to fight it or free it. If you free it right away, it moves to a different dungeon transforms into a stronger version, so the Shade entry will be missed. Instead, make sure to fight it first and then reset the dungeon to find it again and free it so it can transform for the other entry.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
38.		Well Read	Unlock 50% of the Lore Book
39.		The Librarian	Unlock 100% of the Lore Book

The Lore Book is filled by collecting lore entries from the dungeons and exploration areas. These can show up as books, scrolls, etc. Inside every dungeon you will find a floating eye called a Surveyor, and collecting this will fill in the dungeon map with icons to show what each room contains. If there is a lore entry you have not read, it will show up as a sheet of paper. This doesn't necessarily mean it is a new entry, just that you haven't read it yet on that run.

Since the dungeons are randomly generated, there is no guarantee every lore entry will be available on your first run of a dungeon. Finish collecting them when you replay the dungeons on Legendary. You may even have to run them a few more times after that if you're unlucky, but probably not. All of the lore entries are listed below, with only the ones marked "World" being outside of the game's eight dungeons. The rest are just RNG inside the dungeons, so I've just listed the names of the lore chains so you can be sure you got them all.

• World: Doomed Voyage — All found in the Derelict Ship.
  
• World: An Endless Maze — All found in the Winding Way.
  
• World: Stories of Arcane: Time Warp — For Knolan's ultimate weapon, see "All out of bubblegum..."
  
• World: Armaments of Legends — All found in the Pale Cathedral.
  
• The Iron Outpost — Bandit Reports, Impenetrable, Spoils of War, History of the Iron Outpost
  
• Path of Fangs — Notes From the Dark Lady, Traveler's Tales: Path of Fangs, Tribal Messages
  
• Junktown — Security Updates, Blood and Water, Jaredd's History of Junktown, The Handoff
  
• The Dig — Miner's Ledger, Mana Seekers, Fortune Favors the Bold, Mine Operation Reports
  
• Deadwatch — Verimatrax Rising, Notes From the Order, Last Testaments
  
• Strongmont — Diary of an Invader, Choices of Men, Defense Against the Territories
  
• The Crimson Garden — Making Preparations, The Pact
  
• The Mana Rifts — The Calling, Blood of Blood, Price of Ambition, Matter Over Mind

40.		You're learning...	Unlock a Beast Perk

Beast Perks are passive bonuses awarded by killing a certain number of specific enemy types or enemies in a specific dungeon. You can find a list of these in the Bestiary.

— Miscellaneous achievements

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
41.		Warming Up	Get a Mid level score at the Battle Arena
42.		Are You Not Entertained	Get Max Score in the Battle Arena

To get a max score in the Arena, you will need to select the highest difficulty (Elite). This will start with Level 25 enemies, though they will get all the way to Level 28 by the end. The Arena is comprised of eight waves of enemies (three in each wave, so 25 enemies total) as well as a final boss (The Farseer). The fourth wave is the mini-boss Verimatrax and two minor enemies at the same time. If you are Level 28+ this task is extremely simple.

By now you should be fairly familiar with combat so it's just a matter of planning your actions carefully. At the end, you'll have 3705 Battle Marks for a max score and all the rewards from the Arena shop.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
43.		Fresh Mint	Acquire 100,000 gold

This one is cumulative. Sell items and gain gold during your play.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
44.		The New Bitcoin	Acquire 200 Shadow Coins

You will earn shadow coins in a number of ways, though mostly from hunts and selling artifacts to the Collector. This one is not cumulative.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
45.		Finders Keepers	Get all three chests in The Winding

The Winding is a location found in the far north of the map, just south of the Crimson Gardens dungeon. This is a hedge maze that you need to complete in about two minutes, while also hitting three pressure plates which will unlock three rewards at the end of the maze.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
46.		Go On...	Kill one of the Beastmaster's Targets
47.		Like A Noss	Kill all the Beastmaster's Targets

There are 8 hunts in all, and each has a suggested level of completion, though you can do them earlier. If you've completed all the available hunts, proceed to the next story dungeon and check back after. Completing all of the Hunts will unlock this achievement. They are as follows:

Trial By Fire (Level 10):
This hunt is located in the Rushlands, in the Balefire Cave to the north. You will need to light all 12 torches here with Flint to be able to summon Fire Lord R'Zahl and defeat it.

Deep in the Mire (Level 12):
After completing the Path of Fangs dungeon, Dogan at the Inn and Tavern will have a quest to clear out the sewers of slimes. The Sludge Mound is the boss. You may have had to complete his first quest to clear the sewers of spiders first, though I'm not positive if that's a requirement or not.

The Voice From Below (Level 15):
To battle this boss, you'll need to acquire a number of things first. You can get them one by one as it asks for them, or just compile them now to save some back and forth. You'll need 1600 Gold, Pauper's Slop from the Harm's Way Inn and Tavern, Junker's Stew and Scummy Grog from the Pointe Break Cantina, and a Ladder from the Junktown dungeon (which I found next to one of the warp points). Once you have all of those things, throw them down the well in the Southern Gate area, then descend and defeat King Slime. Remember to retrieve all your gold from down there!

A Watcher of Graves (Level 16):
Head to The Red Grave, which is west of the Deadwatch dungeon. Here will be a roaming ghost. To make him corporeal and able to fight, you need to loot the graves of Jarren and Dominick. You'll get a key from the second one, allowing you to enter the tomb of Argeas. Once you've looted all three of those, you can fight the Grave Warden to complete the hunt.

Destructive Duo (Level 19):
To start this hunt, first visit the attic of the Pointe Break Cantina's bar. You'll find two decommissioned mechs here. Read the book behind them to learn the crafting recipe for a battery to fix them. All the ingredients are common except the "Mana Infused Deep Iron Ignot" which you can only craft by giving Welt enough ore to fix his pickaxe. You can find him just south of The Dig. The other is the S.U.Z.I.E. core, which you should come across in the Junktown dungeon. Once you craft the OEM Energy Cell, repair and defeat the mechs.

An Ancient Weapon (Level 20):
This is the same boss required for Calibretto's Ultimate Burst.

The Hunger (Level 26):
To fight this boss, you need to first visit the Pale Cathedral which is next to the Northern Wintervein Blinkstation. Grab the empty Blood Vessel from this location, and fill it inside the Crimson Gardens dungeon. You also need three Ancient Vampire Fangs, which are dropped by Ancient Vampire Ghouls. These enemies spawn in the Pale Cathedral, in Wintervein on the world map,
and inside the Crimson Gardens. Return to the Pale Cathedral with all the items to summon and defeat The Hunger.

The Gentleman (Level 27):
This hunter is located in The Red Grave. You will need three items to summon him. First, buy the top hat from the Collector for 50 shadow coins, then trade that with a guy in the Pointe Break Cantina bar to get the correct top hat. Next, get all the chests in The Winding Way (see "Finders Keepers") and use the Winking Ring to open the locked gate in the ruins north of the Arena, which will give you the monocle. Lastly, return to The Red Grave and get the cane from inside a tomb. Take all three items to the grave of W.K. Killington to summon and defeat him.

№	Picture	Achievement	Description
48.		No Parley	Defeat the Pirate Captain

Usually 2-4 ships will spawn near Iron Outpost, Junktown, and the Mana Rifts at random. According to the developer, you'll need to have defeated "three captains and finished Crimson Gardens" for the boss' airship to spawn. However, for me personally, I had to defeat his three Sky Lieutenants and his two Sky Captains, and about 20 more airships besides. I believe it is just random when the High Captain spawns and I had bad luck, but supposedly it will always be by the Mana Rifts.

This just caught me out when crafting all heroes' weapons - Dragon Heart Phylactery and Dragon Scales are swapped around. The Dragon Scales are in the chest at the top of the map.

Thanks for the guide!

Sorry for so many comments its the 1000 char limit - I spend + 80 hours on this awsome game and wanted to share with the community

[piripi_tok]

I instead by accident leveled up to almost 30 by killing the oozes when you go down the well as the boss hunt .. I was already like 1 or 2 levels above the boss so I could insta kill the oozes he spawned and because of the overkill and one shot bonuses I got I left the battle with like +10k exp .. I was on the phone distracted and just kept on killing the adds he spawned without thinking about it .. then after battle screen comes and I get like 10 Levels or so
I then read up on what just happened and found out about the old (presumably patched way of grinding exp) et voila
My personal recommendation don't do this .. makes the game borring AF and being overleveld with underwhelming gear is just akward

[piripi_tok]

Exp Tipp: on some sources online you can find that people did abuse the boss on the trail of somehting like before the dig dungeon when you use the portal to get past the cannon barraging the path.. that didnt work for me because he would scarafice those stealthed hunter guys without me even being able to attack them propper

[piripi_tok]

No Parley achievement : I defeated some of the Lieutenants like +20 times until i got the main boss to spawn - way after I already hit lvl 30.. his airship is way bigger then the others so once you see this you know its him.

[piripi_tok]

@Devlisher
I also missed the shade .. I read somewhere that when you play the endless battle arena it can come and It did come for me at arround level 33ish enemys .. I only saw it by accident because the skin for the enemy is the same as a regular fire skelettal mage guy.. but guess what .. the archivement didnt pop !
I did some reading and digging and then found out it only popps when you have all the purple bars full for all monsters ! So i had to redo a couple of dungeons in the Moors and Winter thing .. I was missing some assassins and Gargoyles
When I completed the last one the archivement finally popped on my first playthrough. I did read online that you can pop that cherry on the NG+ tho also as all the beastiatarry carrys over

[piripi_tok]

hello awsome guide !
I just finished everything except finishing the game on NG+ - hope my findings help people

I can repeat & confirm that if you stock up on 600 SC then buy all skins then
Alt & F4 the archivements popp and when I loaded back in the game I could spend the coins on skills. Thanks a ton @YordiFTW

@Autor - please feel free to update this already awesome guide as I fear some people might miss some of the crucial info some people have provided here

[Devlisher]

On 100% Bestiary (cause thats the only having issue with) if anyone that already has it can confirm or not?

Is it possible to get on 2nd Playthrough or do you have to get the (Shade of Bel) on 1st Playthrough of the game? Because, I've done multiple runs at Iron outpost alrdy and can never get the bloody mob to interact with me.

Its the one missing achievement for me.
@sk8ernater19 Yep, have same issue. Hearing some say its bugged and for some it never popped at all. So hard to get (confirmation) on this :/

[🙂]

i really need help with crating item, that is only 2 weapon to craft and i dont know how to unlock the higher lvl of weapon. I buy all the book available but nothing happend upgrade blacksmith to max, plz help meeeeeee

[Zentun]

The "The New Bitcoin" it's indeed cumulative, i had 157 coins when the achievement unlocked for me, you don't need to have all 200 at the same time in you inventory.
