Achievement and Choice Guide

In this guide I've set out to map out all the branching choices in the game in a readable way.

At the same time, I've made a list of all of the achievements and what you must do to get them.

Hope you find this useful.

PS: SPOILERS ahead!

Introduction and changelog

Hello, if you're just here for the achievements, check out the first three sections.

If you're curious about how the various choices affect your stats and what battles await you, you might find the rest of the sections interesting as well.

SPOILER WARNING: I really recommend playing through all the game unspoiled at least once! Reading through this guide before knowing what happens might lessen the experience for you and might even confuse you.

Changelog

2019-01-30 This is the initial release of this guide.
2019-06-12 Oops, finally noticed i had red spelling lines on the text of the Story Path image! Fixed that.

Game story structure and general paths

The story is structured to have a linear introduction, followed by a hefty midsection where you must complete three main areas in whatever order you choose, and finally a linear part at the end, as the story reaches its climax.


The starting area is made up of:

• The Shield of Dorn
  
• The Broodlord nest
  
• Apothecary's Teleportation destination

The three battlebrother areas which can be done in any order, but must be all visited:

• Brother Kael
  
• Brother Epsitolary Radamus
  
• Brother Barathon

Additionally, there are six connecting areas between the three brothers and also two key areas:

• Icy Place (Barathon -> Radamus)
  
• Broken Bridge (Radammus -> Barathon)
  
• Coroded Crane (Radamus -> Kael)
  
• Ravener (Kael -> Radamus)
  
• Ecclesiarchy Vessel (Barathon -> Kael)
  
• Mutant Camp (Kael -> Barathon)
  
• Voidraven (key)
  
• Drop-Pod (key)

The final area is made up of:

• The Spear of Ophelia
  
• The Sabotage Area
  
• Sergeant Valerius

So this means you have 6 total paths you can take through the game, but, be warned, some of these paths seem to be buggy! [TODO: I need to do some further testing to see if there are any other key things that trigger these bugs, will make a thread afterwards to inquire about them].

Kael -> Barathon -> Radamus

Middle Section order: Kael, Mutant Camp, Voidraven, Barathon, Drop Pod, Ice Cave, Radamus

Kael -> Radamus-> Barathon

Middle Section order - if you don't skip the Ravener fight: Kael, Ravener, Radamus, Voidraven, Drop Pod, Rock Bridge, Barathon
Middle Section order - if you skip the Ravener fight: Kael, Ravener, Voidraven, Radamus, Drop Pod, [BUG - END OF SECTION - missing Rock Bridge and Barathon!]

So, for some reason, at this time (2019-01-28) Skipping the Ravener fight makes the game bug out and after the drop pod section, you'll end up directly on the Spear of Ophelia!

Radamus -> Barathon -> Kael

Middle Section order: Radamus, Voidraven, Rock Bridge, Barathon, Drop Pod, Ecclesiarchy Vessel, Kael

Radamus -> Kael-> Barathon

Middle Section order: Radamus, Voidraven, Coroded Crane, Kael, Mutant Camp, [BUG - END OF SECTION - missing Barathon and Drop Pod!]

At this time (2019-01-28) after the Mutant Camp section, you just end up on the Spear of Ophelia for no good reason at all!

Barathon -> Rdamus -> Kael

Middle Section order: Barathon, Ice, Radamus, Voidraven, Drop Pod, Coroded Crane, Kael

Barathon -> Kael-> Radamus

Middle Section order - if you don't skip the Ravener fight: Barathon, Ecclesiarchy Vessel, Kael, Ravener, Radamus, Drop Pod

Middle Section order - if you skip the Ravener fight: Barathon, Ecclesiarchy Vessel, Kael, Ravener, Drop Pod, Radamus

NOTE: I suspect these paths are a bit buggy too as they are the only ones where you don't get to visit the Voidraven, which seems to bring some important exposition and probably shouldn't be missable! (Although as far as gameplay goes, it's no big loss I guess - actually, the story probably makes sense just fine without it as well...)

Bonus Buggy Paths

Now, even though i said there are 6 paths, practically there are 2 more paths that are possible due to a bug (again, at the time of 2019-01-28).

In order to trigger this bug, simply pick Brother Barathon first, but then be a coward and don't step through the portal to the Tombship.

Now, for your third brother, you will be able to have a second chance at Barathon! But this means you will actually miss out on your third brother!


Barathon -> Kael -> Barathon
Middle Section order: Barathon, Ecclesiarchy vessel, Kael, Mutant Camp, Drop Pod, Barathon

Barathon -> Radamus -> Barathon
Middle Section order: Barathon, Ice, Radamus, Voidraven, Drop Pod, Rock Bridge, Barathon

If anyone can confirm or deny the bugs I've mentioned above, please let me know in the comments.
