What is your favorite achievement? I'll go first.
SpoilerGeneral Discussion - [SPOILERS]Whatever achievement is about a dwarven meal
Dude, I ate all the goddamn dwarf. ALL OF IT! Still no achievement whatsoever...
Should be a hidden achievement or somethin'. "Not what we meant"
Tbh this alone makes the game unplayable
As durge run, the dwarf makes a good healing potion lol
Definitely. Iirc, it's even a free action
In my game using it while fighting cost nothing? I can eat 3-5 on 1 turn to heal from 1 to full and still do all attacks. It's kinda cheat mode, good we dont have more of it.
Came to say this. Glad it's the top comment already. I got it after an auto select too.
i was low on food in act 2 and sent every bottle i could find in thisobald's inn to camp. got the achievement the next morning lol
I got it around the same time but I think it was the shit ton of wine underneath Last Light
"The Liqour Randy, Liqour!"
I love how your party all wake up hungover too. Nice touch
- A Grym Fate, because I and so many other people earned it in ignorance.
- Kill Two Birds With One Gnome, because enemies are the best improvised weapons.
- Shove Off, because gravity is the second best improvised weapon.
I finally got the Two Birds achievement tonight, because I was throwing them instead of swinging them.
Never gets old.
A Grym Fate, the achievement that rewards you for doing everything completely like normal
I’ve still never managed to kill Grym using the hammer- it’s easier just to bash him while using Hill Giant Elixirs.
I did it in regular game but honor mode he gets extra movement it's a pain in the ass getting him to the middle
He will get distracted by minor illusion. I only used that from the top where I had my characters throwing stuff down at him.
The other day I used several mage hands to activate the lava etc. and just bombarded him from above. *cough*
If I'm doin anything up on the stairs its just owlbear from the top rope on him
I just hire a druid and make a huge owlbear
Yeah, #2 is my favorite.
The real achievement should be killing Grym with the hammer, because it seems much more difficult
I forgot about Grym Fate but it's definitely up there for me for exactly the same reason lol, it took multiple attempts for me to beat it with explicitly using blunt weapons and stuff only to realise it expects you to use the giant hammer
The leave nobody behind tiefling achievement where all the tieflings survive to the end
Same. This is the most satisfying.
Wait dumb question, don’t some always die in the shadow cursed lands?
You get it by saving everyone who can be saved, the ones who'll die no matter what don't count
I got it even without saving the kid from the harpies. A bit weird that one didn’t count.
Good because Mirkon died in my honor run 😭
You only have to save certain ones
I somehow stumbled into it on my very first playthrough
I can’t find zevlor and one person died in the escape :(
Zevlor is in the mindflayer colony. He’s in one of the pods and you have to let him out and kill the mindflayers that are also let out. If you still can’t find him down there I recommend looking up a tutorial/coordinates
As for the other tiefling, I’m not sure who you’re referring to unless I get a name
Thx. The tieflingn that died was just a random one who died after i forgot to take down the guards on the docks
Use Wullbren hammer next time, so much better.
I just killed every guard in the prison itself but forgot the exit docks. I also took down the warden and opened the cells with the lever.
I never got this way for the reason you did. When you go Wullbren way they just escape using the hole in the wall and get into a nice safe boat.
I never knew there was a second way until people started to complain about tieflings dying while running out? I was like what, how?
But I got the achievement without zevlor lol
That has to be my least favorite. Me trying to get it, freeing the prisoners from moonrise towers and those idiots just die from the shadow curse outside. I still haven't attempted to finish that achievment and it's my last one missing.
Wait how do they die from the shadowcurse outside? Pretty sure when I played that part we escaped on a boat which went to the inn and everyone was fine. The only one I had to save from the shadow creatures was Rolan.
Moonrise tower prison break is pretty easy, just murder every guard first. The people upstairs don’t care.
Yea no I killed pretty much everyone besides Ketheric before going in. The gnomes, the tieflings they all just run outside in the direction of the trading house thingy. They almost always die before they can despawn to last light inn. A boat? First I'm hearing of it. It's always a gamble for me if those idiots survive the shadowcurse. Every playthrough.
Granted it might be mods that are interfering with their pathing somehow but still.
Wait, do you actually activate the getting them out of prison thingy? When you sneak them out through the back tunnels during combat?
oh. OOOOHHHHH.
Yea that might be it. I always kill the warden and just open the cells. I've never even thought of sneaking them out through the back cuz that seems like such a hassle.
OHHH hahaha that might be the issue! It must bug out if you don't talk to the prisoners first, at least that's what I do and then you can either go full sneak or just "sneak" them out while killing the wardens
Did you talk to wulbren, one of the gnome prisoners? My memory is a bit fuzzy when it comes to this, but I’m pretty sure it went like he had a plan and he needed you to get his hammer which is where the warden is. I killed everyone, got the hammer from the wardens office or whatever, gave it to him, and he broke the walls and the gnomes and the tieflings ran off through a secret back passageway or something.
And then they escaped on a boat with us. At the inn they had to be checked to make sure they weren’t shadow cursed I think and then after that they were allowed in.
Yea I just found out that that is an option. I always kill the warden, open the cells and they just run out through the front and outside to the docks. Sneaking them out seems like such a hassle. Why not just kill the warden and be done with it?
Yeah I tried to sneakily grab the hammer at first but I got caught and then I just got fed up and killed everyone. Was much easier and there were surprisingly no consequences as when I went upstairs everyone was completely calm and normal.
The bard busking one, because it makes picking up those single coins feel so important.
Mind blown. Duh.
"Hot Date"
🤝
Foe hammer
Mind Blown 😏
Save all the tieflings.
I describe Honor mode as the mode where if you die in the game you die in real life. Beating it is a massive accomplishment.
Finally beat it yesterday🥲
Gg
Yep the foeHammer achieve!!
Foe Hammer because it had me shittin for 50 hours but so glad I got it.
You are correct. Two hands is indeed the best achievement, which I go out of my way to ensure I get the scene for it each and every time, and with Speak to Animals active as many of those times as possible
Hot Date and Leave No One Behind.
I take care of Tieflings. Lmao, one more-so than the rest though
I love this answer lol. I forgot you get an achievement for that even though swooning over Karlach is where my flair comes from
It's hard not to for her. That's my smoochie bear lol
But you already linked it. :D
Kill two birds with one gnome
Äh, how do you archive this? How did you do that???? I didn't know it was possible??
Step 1. Befriend scratch in the starter forest Step 2. Cast speak with animals before every long rest (can be ritual casted) Step 3. Feed the owlbear cub Step 4. Continue playing the game like normal, but cast speak with animals before a long rest
EDIT: forgot to mention that before step 2, you have to murder the owlbear mother in the cave near scratch while sparing its child
I got the achievment yesterday without speak with animals
you can?!
Yes, you just need to pass check to figure out they are friends, then you can pet first doggo then the feather doggo
Reading 100 books. Do you know how fucking excited I was that there was so much to read? A game where I could read books??? 12 year old me who was banned from keeping books in their desk because they read in class too much was ecstatic lmao
I randomly got it when I was raiding a random room
Lol came here to post the same things as OP
A very lengthy reason for my two hands indeed.
Devil's in the details- kill Zhalk on the nautiloid. The first achievement you can get, (without trying really hard and bum rushing the kill someone unarmed or kill someone with someone else).
Bookworm- read a hundred books in one playthrough, I'm a hoarder in game, everything, especially after they fixed the camp chest. Almost every book is sadly useless, except reading a ton of the useless books gives you an achivement, so not totally useless. 😁 that one just feels really nice.
Get pegged by Karlach is my favourite
“Defeat the grymmforge without using the hammer.”
I didnt even know you could use it in the fight. Getting this achievement made me feel like an idiot
I just used a strategy I called: Hook, Line, and Stinker. Lae’zel waited at the lava activation thingie, my character used their crossbow to become the prime target and waited on the other side of the arena and led the robot guy to the hammer, before Karlach pulled the lever after Lae’zel flooded the place. Shadowheart took down most of the lava mephits along with my character.
The ones that are hardest to get.
Punch Drunk if you punch while drunk. Way of the Drunken Master for the win
Mind Blown
Save all the Tieflings :) got it on my Paladin run and it was perfect for her character.
Sins of the father...
.... How do you put both?? I think my tavs stupid
If you long rest, you can activate a cutscene where the cub has a nightmare. Then it’s just “guess the dialog option”
Ah heck I missed it then.
Time to restart (again)
Honour mode achievement that automatically gives you the tactician achievement too! I was very suprised when i saw that and it made all the pain of being TPKed 6 times before level 5 worth it lmao
Fine, I'll say it. SHE CANNOT BE CAGED.
Only 2.4% of you have it and those are ROOKIE NUMBERS.
WE GOTTA PUMP THAT SHIT UP.
Ah this is the one I was looking for. She's so inconvenient but it's hilarious.
People who don't have the "Two Hands for a Reason" cheevo, who hurt you?
Honestly, the one for beating Grym without using the press. I spent over an hour trying to maneuver him into the press with no luck and finally said screw it and went HAM on him with my monk, Karlach, Shadowheart, and Lae'zel, and beat him in 2 rounds.
Throw astral prison to scratch
Jack-of-All-Trades.
yeah same
The same.
Give Shadowheart Night Orchid. Always know she is a softy.
Mind blown
Your favorite is the only correct answer
Mind blown.
Beat Grym without the forge hammer, because a noticeable percentage of people including me didn’t even consider the option until we saw the achievement
Weirdly enough i did the opposite the first time i beat him.
Could never get him near the hammer before he cooled down, so Karlach and Lazael bashed him to death while the rest of the party kited and slowly chipped at his health.
Now i just kite him from the stairs.
The first time I ever beat him was using Hook, Line, and Stinker. (A startegy I made up using the lava and hammer and prime target mechanic)
I kinda just used my monk to bonk him for 20 rounds in a row
I dont use english subs so:
'Drinking all alcohol on 1 long rest' was a suprise because I let game decide what I consume and it choosed stack of vodka. xD
'Killing grymforge boss without using hammer' I didnt know I can use it even so it was also a suprise.
the one for killing Grym without the hammer because so many people (myself included) got it and said "THERE WAS A HAMMER?"
I need to know how you got this achievement??
Every time I went to pet thm it was not a same time kinda thing!
Definitely that one.
never even checked the achievements for this game
Nothing funnier than sending Shadowheart drunk into a basement to fight rats.
I really liked the achievement for saving Sazza. It's really fucking hard to a) decide to save her in the first place, and b) actually save her from some really tough situations.
I was kinda proud of that one
Anyone know if they fixed this achievement yet when doing the cutscene that triggers the achievement while having 'Speak with Animals' active?
And for those who don't know, if you have 'Speak with Animals' active Spoilers Ahead and doing the scene where the owlbear and scratch are sleeping, when going to pet them, instead of petting them one at a time (which does trigger the achievement) you pet them both at the same time (which does not) and makes no sense why the version of the animation that actually uses both hands does not trigger the achievement about using more than one hand tompet animals
Elven Accuracy. Triple advantage.
You've pretty much nailed it with that one.
Or maybe the "Hot Date" achievement for going out with Karlach, but that's really its own reward.

Whatever achievement is about a dwarven meal. Drink all alcohol for a long rest.
