Overview
An achievement guide to help out for those who like collecting achievements.
Introduction
I organized the achievements in different categories to make it easier to read. All of the achievements are pretty much self explanatory. There are some that I have no idea how to get so any help would be appreciated.
There are 2 ways to get the achievements:
1) The first is to do it legitimately, this will take you a very long time to complete.
2) The second is to use tqdefiler, a character editor that will allow you to unlock all difficulties right from the start, level up your character, give you attribute points etc. It takes all the fun out of the game but if you want to get these achievements faster you may want to consider it.
Act 1
Most of these are story related and can not be missed unless otherwise stated. PLEASE NOTE: If you play multiplayer you can miss out on some of these if you join a game and the host has already completed the mission. You can also replay any act to kill any optional bosses that you may have missed in epic or legendary difficulty.

Defeat Aktaios
Find and defeat the Manticore-The Manticore is a very powerful boss that only appears on epic and legendary. You encounter it in the Sandswept Cave on the east of the Fayum Desert.
Credit to Steam User Stap:
Open the Pharaohs tomb in Giza 3 times (on Normal, Epic and Legendary);
Some confusion with this one.
This sidequest is related to Khufu’s curse. There will be a man stadning in front on the pyramid in the desert. Open all three tombs in the pyramid. I’m not sure if the achievement is tied to opening the wrong tombs or if its related to completing the quest 3 time on each difficulty.
Act 3
Defeat the Chimera
Defeat Barmanu
Defend the Great Wall
Meet the Yellow Emperor
Find and defeat the Dragon Lich -He is encountered shortly after Chang’an, at the Shrine of Zhong Kui, but only on Epic and Legendary difficulties

You need one of your pets to attack the telkin before you go down otherwise the telkine teleports the sickle elsewhere. After you defeat the last boss in Act 3 equip the sickle of Kronos.
Act 4
Slay a titan
Act 5
Find Medea
Defeat the Graeae
Cross the Styx
Walk the fields of Elysion
Finish the main storyline
Loot Hades’ treasure vault – Side quest in Act 5.
First you have to find 4 stones located throughout the entire act.
Frost Stone: Carried by Thyia of the Stygian Frosts inside the Daemon camp
Flame Stone: Carried by Metriche at the Fields of the Diadochi
Soul Stone: Carried by the Night’s Mistress inside the Royal Chambers
Venom Stone: Carried by Canace the Serpent Queen inside the Tower of Judgment
After you have all the stones go back to the Plains of Judgement portal, go back outside, follow the short path and enter the first cave you see. Place the 4 stones on each of the pedestals and the door should open.

Upon defeating Hades, there’s an 8 – 10% chance he’ll drop a seemingly random quest item called The Overlord.
Where do you use it? It’s small, cute, but most importantly, it opens a secret passage North East of Rhodes, in the Coastal Asomata region, which will in turn unlock the “Turtle Power” achievement:

50 shades is simple, just release at least 50 souls in Hades realm in Act 5
Release 500 souls in Hades realm in Act 5
Masteries
Any achievements related to masteries.
Hunter
Puncture four enemies with one arrow
Max out the skill Puncture Shot Arrow, get a group of enemies together and start shooting and hope for the best. Shouldn’t be too difficult
From Steam User figmentPez [Halforums]
Found out yesterday that the Good Point achievement can be done with the Ice Shard & Velocity skill from Storm mastery. The ice shards apparently count as arrows.
From Steam User: Code: Neko
For Good point achievement, it can be done as assassin (Warfare/rogue) i was dual wielding thrown weapons, one being hanoi(the one that gives volley) and got it like that , didnt know it was possible like that so sharing something new thatd help
Keep an enemy ensnared for 30 seconds
Put a point in ensnare and keep casting it on the same enemy. Pick an enemy that has a lot of health.
Defense
Beat Polyphemus while in Colossus Form
Beat the giant troll in Act 1 in Colossus Form. May be possible in normal difficutly but I don’t believe it is as you won’t have enough skill points. Can be done on Epic difficulty.
Cast Rally on yourself and 3 other players
Stun an enemy for 10 seconds in one hit
Credit to Steam user Eddetektor:
Conquror(Warrior/Defense) can do it. War Horn (7,5s stun at max lv) and Consussive Blow (+65% stun at max lv) can make 12,375 s stun.
If that doesn’t work, use concussive blow, use a regular club and insert relics that increase stun duration i.e Embodiment of Dionysus’ Wineskin, Embodiment of Shen-Nong’s Dark Medicine. Start hitting enemies and hope for the best.
Warrior
Have two Battle Standards up at the same time
In order to do this, you need to lower your casting recharge time either through equipment or using the skill in the nature mastery.
Storm
Burn an enemy’s mana for 2500 damage
The only skill related to this that I could find is spell breaker/spell shook.
Earth
Defeat ten enemies over the course of one Stoneform spell
Max out Stoneform/Molten Rock, get as much elemental damage as you can get. Easier to do this in normal mode.
Rogue
Hit an enemy for 100.000 damage
The only skill that I think is suitable is Lethal Strike. If anybody else has any suggestions that would be great.
Have 10 enemies running around confused
Max out Mandrake, try to keep your damage output low so enemies don’t die out on you.
From Steam User: Kulcsos12
Easiest way to get the Delirium achievement with the Rouge if you use the maxed out Flash Powder skill. Just collect 10 or more melee enemies on you and cast the skill.
Nature
Heal other players for a total of 200 000 health
Max out Regrowth skill and cast it on other people. Rally from the defense mastery will also work. Must be used on other players, your own pets will not count.
Travel with three Wolves and a Nymph
Max out Call of the Wild, then you need to either find a Mastery Shrine, or have items that boost your skills an additional +2 in order to summon 3 wolves. Putting one point Sylvan Nympth is enough.
Have 14 enemies afflicted by Plague at once
Max out Plague and get a large group of enemies togehter. Requries luck.
Spirit
Mind control six enemies at the same time
Max out Enslaved Spirit and you need to lower your casting recharge time through equipment. The max you can lower it is 80% (cap). I got this just outside of the first camp in act1 normal. It may be a bit tricky, it requires you to cast enslave spirit as soon as its recharged in order to get 6 enemies. Certain equipment also has a chance of mind control but the chances of finding them and have 6 at the same time through equipment is very minimal.
Summon a level 20 Outsider
Max out Summon Outsider (lvl 16), you also need to +4 skill to reach level 20. Find equipment that gives you + x to all skills and also find a shrine of mastery. After that summon your outsider.
Dream
Have 12 enemies sleeping simultaneously
Max out Sands of Sleep.
Phantom Strike six enemies at once
Max out phatom strike/Dream Stealer.
Crafting
Craft a Lesser Artefact
Craft a Greater Artefact
Craft a Divine Artefact
Complete 50 charms
Assemble 50 relics
Retrieve a relic from an item
Difficulty
Legendary difficulty gets unlocked after completing Epic difficulty. This will take you a very long time to get unless you use Tqdefiler and unlock Legendary difficulty right from the start.
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Warfare character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Defense character
Beat Legendary difficulty as an Earth character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Storm character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Hunting character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Rogue character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Spirit character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Nature character
Beat Legendary difficulty as a Dream character
These next achievements do not stack. You have to beat each difficulty with zero deaths to unlock the achievements.
Finish Normal difficulty with zero deaths
Finish Epic difficulty with zero deaths
Finish Legendary difficulty with zero deaths
Miscellaneous
Form a party with other heroes
Finish all 3 difficulties in less than 20 hours play time
This one requires you to play multiplayer in all 3 difficulties. Hopefully you can join games where most of the quests are complete and you can just finish the acts quickly.
Kill 100.000 monsters with a single character
A single playthrough will get you around 10-15 thousand enemies killed depending on how thorough you are in each area. This will take you a long time.
Kill a million monsters
This will most likely be your last achievement. Good luck.
Wear five matching set items
Reach level 2 without taking any damage
Using a bow or joining a multiplayer game will help.
Have a characer reach level 75
Finish Normal difficulty without selecting a second mastery
Finish Normal with less than 100 monsters killed
In order to accomplish this, your allies/traps have to kill the enemies for you. Nature/Spirit or Nautre/Rogue seems to be a good build. Put all points in summoning pets/traps and take things slowly. Equip any items that boost your pets. You are more than likely need to join multiplayer when you first start out so others kill the enemies for you so you can level up a few times without actually killing anybody.
Also: Credit to FericJaggar
Use Nature, summon wolves. You can use Dream too because the Nightmare pet boosts the stats of all pets summoned. And you let your minions doing the job for you, while you heal them.
Need Help
Any help on these would be appreciated.
Magebreaker
Burn an enemy’s mana for 2500 damage
The only skill related to this that I could find is spell breaker/spell shook.
– I tried this and it didn’t work, any suggestions would be helpful.
Conclusion
I hope this makes it easier to search for achievements that you still need to get. If you see any mistakes or any suggestions in how to get any of these achievements, please let me know so that I can added it to the guide. Happy Gaming!
