Overview
Ni No Kuni 2 – Skirmish List, Map and Checklist to assist with the achievement, God of War.
Notes
Patch 1.02 Update: Skirmishes will now change from Gold into a Blue color to indicate completed skirmishes.
For this achievement you must do 50 unique skirmishes for this achievement (i.e: You must complete ALL Skirmishes.) Simply replaying one Skirmish over and over does not count towards the achievement, nor does Hard Mode count.
Open-World Skirmishes are on a rotation basis. This means that not all Skirmishes will show up on the world map. You will either need to constantly reload your save file to change which Skirmishes will appear or enter/exit a landmark/town after a certain period of time has passed. Alternatively, you can complete a random skirmish and it should refresh the list.
I highly recommend using the spreadsheet I made to keep track of your progress, as you will only be able to tell if you have completed it or not by the availability of Hard Mode (which if unlocked, means you have done the Skirmish before).
Skirmish Checklist
Upon request from several users, I have created a checklist and put it together on Google Sheets. You can find the link here: Ni No Kuni 2 – Skirmish Checklist[docs.google.com]
I have set the sheet as View Only to prevent any tampering with the document. If you wish to edit the sheet, please make or download a copy for yourself instead. This can be done by going to File > Make a Copy OR File > Download as.

Includes both Side Quest and Open-world Skirmishes. Main Story Skirmishes are not included because they’re fairly straightforward.
Side note: Wham! Bango! is actually the Verninate the Horde! skirmish.
