Skills Achievements
There are a total of 3 Class with 4 Skills each along with 13 achievements in total. Most of these Skills needs to be at a certain level to be effective to achieved them and some need to fully recharge it skill or load a game for the achievement to pop up.
Destroy 5 ships with a single Shotgun Skill
– Best done on a higher Shotgun Skill level and against 5 or more Gunships.
You can try to weaken the enemies first, aim at 2000 range and fire.
Ram into a Warmaster who tried to use the Ram skill on You
– You cannot do it on level 5 and higher Ram skill due to an oversight from the developer. [link]
It is best to do this without your fleet and at a higher character level.
You will need an enemies Warmaster with Vanguard class (easily found in Starchart). After that, you need to be in front of it with a decent distance (~10 000) and you got a split second to use that Ram on it while they use Ram on you.
Warmaster with Vanguard class can still be found in Freelance mission called : Hunt – Warmaster.
Pull 30 targets with a single Gravity Pull skill
– Fighter do not count. This will be very difficult at early stage.
It is best done at character level 21 to give a higher chance to spawn more enemies ships.
It is also recommend you put as many Gravity Pull skill point as you can, get yourself in enemies territories near any Structures, save and than load, make sure you got 30 or more ships and keep using Gravity Pull till you get it..
Destroy 1000 ships with Overload cumulatively
– Best use with Expose level 5 or higher than use Overload to destroy them for a 1000 times. Can be done in different playthrough.
Destroy 4 ships with a single Precision Shot skill
– Minimun Precision Shot skill level must be 7.
Very simple. Find 4 Gunships, weaken them than use Precision Shot skill.
Let your Holo Decoy destroy 2 ships in 10 seconds
– You must have Holo Decoy skill at level 5 or up in order for it to cause damage to hostile ships.
This achievement can be annoying here are the recommendation :
- Keep 3 hostile ships and weaken them before deploying Holo Decoy.
- Get a Dreadnought or Titan.
- Equip your ship with Plasma cannons, (Peacekeeper, Requiem, etc…) with max turrets.
- Solo it, do not bring your fleet.
- Max Holo Decoy skill to bring 50% damage.
Push away 200 targets with the Gravity Push skill
– Easily done by just using it. No need for upgrade and can be done in different playthrough.
Destroy 15 ships with a single Warhead skill
– Best done on a higher skill level and against Gunship with Gravity Pull as an optional Skill.
You must weaken the 15 or more enemies ships at 25% than either let them chase you from your tail or use Gravity Pull, and finally use Warhead at the ship that is close to the centre of all other ships.
Nuke an enemy Warmaster
– To find a Warmaster look at your Starchart and find a red ship icon. That ship will give you detail if it is a Warmaster or just a fleet. They also can be found in Freelance mission : Hunt – Warmaster.
Head there than find and select the Warmaster ship. Weaken it and use Warhead skill to destroy it.
Destroy 10 ships with a single Expose skill
– Minimum level is 5 or higher in order to cause area of effect. Cooldown takes 10 seconds.
Here are the recommendation :
- Max Expose.
- Have as many enemies Gunships and Corvettes as possible.
- Gravity Pull can be very useful.
- Alternatively, you can “run away slowly” in order for the enemies ships are on your tail.
- Aim at the centre of the crowd, first shot will not kill any but second shot should finish them.
Accumulate 30 minutes of Cloak time
– Very easy, adding a skill point add 5 seconds more. Just keep using it during or off battle and this achievement will pop up. This can be done in different playthrough.
Disable enemy ships for a total duration of 30 minutes
– Simple but dreadfully long. The base Skill level is 2.5 seconds, maximizing it will be 5.5 seconds. Recharging the Disable will take 37.5 seconds.
30 minutes is equal 1800 seconds so yes this will take very long, highly recommended to upgraded pass level 5 so it can do area of effect. This can be done in different playthrough.
Successfully Execute 10 ships in a row
– Best done on a higher skill level and against Gunship.
For every successful Execute, the enemy ship is destroyed and it will takes 15 seconds to recharge Execute.
A failed Execute will cause damage but the recharge will take 2 minutes so it is highly recommended that you weaken the enemy ship before using it. Do it 10 times in a roll without fail.
HQ Station Achievements
This section will introduce you a little bit to your HQ – Concordia. You will be able to access Construction and Research during Mission 06. There is only 4 achievements.
Once your dock to your HQ or press esc button, you will be giving several options :
Build your 1st module
– Just built anything you can afford and it will pop up.
Construct the Hub Module Level 3
– Get your Hub Module to level 3, this will be expensive and nothing complicated.
Fully upgrade your HQ
– You will need a huge amount of resource : ~250 000 ore, ~40 000 gas, and ~30 000 material.
Upgrade Hub Module, Hangar Module, Tactical Ops, Mining Ops, Salvage Depot, and Research & Development to level 3.
Upgrade Trade Center, Production Plant, and Logistics Center to level 2.
Complete 70 research projects
– There are 82 in total to research for the base game and 1 research with Cycle of Warfare dlc.
Rocket Science is cumulative in any playthrough.
Conquest and Ship Warfare Achievements
In this section will talk about taking Zones and Planets, and your main ship in general.
You will need Mission 06 finish to access the creation of fleets. Command them to move attack stations and outpost alike.
Take over Your 1st Zone
Conquer 50 Zones
Conquer 150 Zones
– There are 173 zones minus 2 from your own starting zones. It is very likely you will need to declare war against all major Factions.
“Liberate” your first planet
Have all planets under your control
– There are 16 Planets (the 2 suns do not count) minus 1 from your own starting Planet.
Before you can even conquer a Planet, you need Proxima research and built in which it will take hundreds of thousands of resources. In addition, you need a powerful fleets (~25 000) to defend Proxima while it is charging.
You will need to declare war against all Factions that have those Planets and conquer them.
Please view Map and for greater planets detail plaese view Volume 3.
Build all possible structures in all 15 regions
– This achievement is not very clear for me but here are some facts :
- There are 50 Regions, not 15.
- There are 13 wormholes, 8 inactive TGates, 8 Mining operation, 7 Gas collector, 3 Junk reclaimer, 1 Research Outpost that can be constructed in the entire Gemini.
- Edea, The Lens, Automated repair facility can be destroyed and rebuilt.
Here is my story :
I have 23 Regions (majority from northern and eastern region) and 2 partial region. I have maximize all structures and built TGates from wormholes whenever possible. At the Attilas Whip, I took a zone, begin upgrades and building an Mining operation. As soon I try to upgrade that Mining operation, the Builder Bob pop up.
Use T-Drive for the First Time
– You will need to buy T-Drive or acquire it through a random Mysterious Signal. Go to inventory, equip it, and use any where you like.
Jump through a Wormhole
– There is a Wormhole between HQ Concordia and Planet Phaeneros. Slowly go in it.
Emerge victorious or flee from a battle with less then 5% hull points remaining
– It sounds difficult but not really. There is at least 2 way to do it :
1. With Cloak Skill, get yourself badly hurt near the 5% mark and use Cloak.
2. Destroy all enemy ships but keep one ship equal your class ship alive and almost destroyed (do not forget to turn Fire at Will off). Once your hurt enough, destroy it.
Link/Hack your first satellite
– You will need Hacking Perk and toward a hostile Satellite Relay. Once near it, Hack we appear.
Or alternatively head to a neutral/allied Satellite Relay and Link we appear.
Capture a Destroyer Class ship after pillaging every room of that ship
– This achievement is very difficult as this will involve Perks, Ship size, Ship enhancement, and Research.
Finding an enemy Destroyer Class ship is the easy part but pillaging each room (in that order: Cargo Bay, Engine Room, Shield Generator, Weapon Room) and finally capture the Bridge. Not so easy.
You have only one chance to pillage all room and capture it otherwise that Destroyer will initiated Biometric Shield that will in turn make it not possible to board it again.
Like any ships, it has a Medical Bay that will let you regain some point. There are three places it can spawn one time : between Cargo Bay and Engine Room (worst), between Engine Room and Shield Generator (fair), between Shield Generator and Weapon Room (best but hard to get there).
What help to capture ships :
The base boarding proficiency is 29 points
Keeping your ship in good health also help for capture. Having neutral/ally and “my enemy of my enemy” ships (must be very close) help in the phase of capturing the Destroyer. Having enemies ships negate the odds of surrendering.
Perks :
Privateer, Cutthroat, Brigand, Outlaw, Marauder, Corsair, Pirate Lord will increase boarding proficiency by 3 points each (21 point total).
Negotiations I, II, and III will give a higher chance for the ships to surrender (capture ship). Unfortunately, there is not a good way to measure it but the better boarding proficiency points left at the end, the better the odds.
Savvy Chief I, II, III, and IV will increase boarding proficiency by 2 points per Savvy Chief (8 points total). These Perks do not need Perk point but instead you need to capture 80 ships of any kind and pillage ships worth 250 points.
Those points are attributed by :
Cargo Bay 1 point – Engine Room 2 points – Shield Generator 3 points – Weapon Room 3 points.
Ship size :
Gunship 2 points – Corvette 4 points – Frigate 6 points – Destroyer 8 points – Cruiser 10 points -Battleship 12 points – Dreadnought 14 points – Carrier 16 points – Titan (dlc) 18 points – Freighter 4 points – Freightliner 10 points in boarding proficiency.
Ship enhancement :
This can be found in Drydock>Enhancements>Transporter. You want either Deflector III, Savant III or Watanabe III. They will give you 2 boarding proficiency points.
Research :
Boarding Armor level 1 give 2 points, level 2 = 3 points, level 3 = 4 points. A total of 7 points of boarding proficiency.
Boarding Angels level 1 and 2 increase Medical Bay heal.
Other Loose Achievements

– This can be done in any playthrough. Fastest way to get it is to have a very big cargo space buy and sell between Planet Phaeneros and HQ Concordia.
You will get some profit and gain experience.
