Basic
___________________________________
Super Effective! – Get a critical hit
Get a crit, easy.
___________________________________
What are you buyin? – Upgrade your first spell/weapon
Do what it says on the tin.
___________________________________
Not Very effective… – Take 0 damage from an attack.
Surprisingly easy, you can do this either by changing the campaign modifiers maxing your troops % bonus and putting the enemy one at 0 or I think by just normal gameplay you can do this when you get Lincoln, that’s how I got it, even on Deity.
___________________________________
Upgrades, people, upgrades! – Upgrade a unit to tier 2
Get a unit to level 10 and promote.
___________________________________
Sweet Home Redhill – Eat corn with Benji
Have Benji use the Corn on the Cob item.
___________________________________
You know, I’m something of a strategist myself – Take 25 or more turns to clear a chapter
Exactly what it says, this is a good one to combo with the I live my life a quarter-mile at a time achievement.
___________________________________
I live my life a quarter-mile at a time – Have a character move 150 tiles in a chapter
Not much to say, just move a selected character that many tiles, good to combo with the You know, I’m something of a strategist myself achievement.
___________________________________
The best of friends – Reach a max level bond
Get any bond to A, I got it in chapter 12, just use and get kills with the same few characters and keep getting those bonds up.
___________________________________
Inevitable – Start a chapter with aspects equipped to every deployed unit
Once you get the trove of aspects from Vesta’s temple, it’s easy.
Normal
___________________________________
O.H.K.O – Defeat an enemy in one hit.
Either change campaign modifiers to make it easier or one way I did it was with Garrick’s upgraded red weapon/ability, given proper preparation it’s easy to do.
___________________________________
Dodge Tank – Have a single unit dodge 20 or more times in one chapter
Either change campaign modifiers to make it easier or how I did it was with Cia on stalker promotion, as long as you don’t end the chapter until you have this complete, it’s easy.
___________________________________
You shall not pass! – Have unit take 150 damage and live in one chapter
You could have a duo like Lincoln and Maren constantly healing each other until one of them takes 150 damage. Be sure to not reload a battlesave while doing this or the chapter statistics get reset and you’ll have to do this again.
___________________________________
Unlimited Power – Upgrade a unit to tier 3
Get a unit to level 30 and select a promotion.
___________________________________
Canon? – Promote a character into the tier 3 corresponding to their tier 2
When selecting a promotion after getting level 30, select the same line.
___________________________________
Thank you sir may I have another – Have one unit take 50% of the team’s damage in a chapter
You can do this quite easily by simply reloading a battlesave near the end of a fight and have one unit take some damage before ending it. Alternatevely you can just go on easy or change the campaign modifiers to have 1 unit tank through the whole fight and finish.
___________________________________
Here comes the cavalry – Deploy 6 mounted units at once
Fairly simple, you do need to spec into mounted units however. Horse or dragon doesn’t matter, each class has a mount they can spec into, with adepts having it only on their second promotion via the electric dragon.
___________________________________
I am speed – Prove your worth to King Varic in under 8 turns
You’ll need to defeat Alexa and her rebels in the arena in chapter 6 in under 8 turns. To make it easier you can change modifiers.
___________________________________
Structural Integrity – Clear Chapter 7 while the aqueducts are over 50 health
The aquaducts take 1 point of damage per enemy standing on the blue event tiles up to a total of 8 per turn, make sure to defeat them all in time.
___________________________________
My rugs! – Clear Chapter 12 while the boat is below 30 health
Simple enough, every turn the boat will take damage, just wait for the boat to be under 30 hp before defeating the final enemy at the top of the boat.
___________________________________
Have you heard of the High Elves? – Clear a chapter with Thae’Lanel, Corvan, or Maeve as you MVP
Super simple, it’s just in this section because it’s later in the game and could sometimes be random, if it doesn’t get given to one of them you can also just reload the battle save and finish the chapter again, that does change the MVP sometimes. Alternatevely have one of them do everything.
___________________________________
Running Riot – Defeat 15 enemies with one unit in a single chapter
Easy to do, especially by changing modifiers, but one nice spot to do it in is in the chapter where you have to take over a bridge, the team on the right will fight knights that keep respawning from the corners, you can station tanks to block them and have someone like Monroe kill them every turn.
Difficult
___________________________________
Say hello to my little friend – Reach the max level of a single spell/weapon tree
You’ll need 2 T1 Tokens, 2 T2 Tokens, 2 T3 Tokens and 1 T4 Token, the max spell/weapon will have an orange name and a ‘+’.
___________________________________
Bought the Battle Pass – Upgrade all of a unit’s weapons to tier 4
Get them all to T3, you don’t need any T4 tokens for this. You’ll know you got it when all the names are orange.
___________________________________
Blessed by Aren Jee Zuss – Have all stats increase on a single levelup
It needs to be a +2 on HP with a +1 on everything else, very RNG dependant, just change the campaign modifiers to make it easy and go from there. C_O did a nice guide on this you can follow here.
