Hardcore mode info:

SOME TIPS FOR HARDCORE DIFFICULTY:

• Zoyas Low gravity arrows slow down enemy movement, their projectiles, block fire and acid.
  
• Amadeus can trap the red fire goblins in prison just like all the other goblins
  
• Any trapped enemy will die in one hit from Zoya's Frost arrow
  
• Trapped enemies that are kept alive are safe to keep around as they will not spawn any further enemies typically. (Due to them being alive still.) This is a great way to make large combat sections easier.
  
• Amadeus can drop frozen enemies from any height and they will shatter, instakilling the frozen enemy!
  
• When trying to hit hard to reach destructible walls, Amadeus can grab Pontius' thrown hammer and simply whack it into the wall! This is a great way to remotely destroy troublesome objects/walls

Challenge is my middle name - Complete any level with hardcore mode on and difficulty set to hard
(The easiest level in terms of combat encounters to attempt this on is the second level in the base game: Forlorn Wilderness)

All Too Easy! - Finish a level without taking any damage (Not the Tutorial)
(Another good level to attempt difficult achievements like this one is the ninth level: Mushroom Murk, as it is quite short compared to other levels.)

Trine Kaput? - Complete a level with only Amadeus, a level with only Zoya and a level with only Pontius
(This one is pretty self explanatory, try to play through some of the earlier levels and ensure that the character you are playing as has their abilties MAXED out. That way you will have all powers and tools at your disposal.
- Zoya's Low Grav field is especially useful for stopping fire and giving an extra boost when platforming.
- Pontius can dash charge and jump at the end of the charge to give an extra bit of distance, this is especially useful when wanting to cross long horizontal gaps.
- Amadeus is great with solving almost all the puzzles in the game, the only problem he runs into is his effectiveness in combat. Try to trap goblins in cages to take care of them.
If the level you are playing has a boss battle in it, DONT play as Amadeus.
The Following Levels have Boss Encounters:
4.Mosslight Marsh - Goblin Brute
10.Searock Castle - Goblin King
12.Icewarden Keep - Frost Goblin Brute
13.Final Chapter - Rosabel's Dragon
Goblin Menace 6.Goblin Machinations - Wheeze's Machine

Rise to the Challenge - Complete any level of the Goblin Menace expansion with hardcore mode on and difficulty set to hard
(Pretty self explanatory, I would advise that you attempt this during the first level of the Goblin Menace: The Heroes Return, in coop too if possible.)

Walk in the Park - Complete the game on hard using hardcore mode
. (This achievement thankfully only applies to the Trine 2 Base Story and NOT the Goblin Menace Expansion.

Trine Kaput For Good? - Complete each expansion level using only one character
(Another straightforward but difficult one, simply play each expansion level through normally and try to keep in mind which character would be best for which level. Then replay as that character and DO NOT switch!

Easy as Pie - Complete the Goblin Menace expansion on hard using hardcore mode
(In my opinion, this is the hardest Achievement in Trine 2, for good reason.The only advice that I can give is to play in coop as combat encounters are easier, learn the level layout along with Boss encounters and ensure that your character's abilities are maxed out, this should be been done already though.)

Obtain Easy as Pie and you will have done what 98.8% of Trine 2 players could not. Well done!

I Didn't Do It - Make goblins die of three different environmental hazards in a single level
There are multiple methods to obtain this achievement, here are some that I am aware of:
1) Impale a goblin on spikes using Amadeus' Monster Levitation
2) Have one of the spitting plants spit on a goblin using Amadeus' Monster Levitation
3) Feed a Goblin to a carnivorous Plant (You can find these in level 7: Hushing Grove)
4) Dropping a goblin down a death drop using Amadeus' Monster Levitation.
5) Burning a Goblin from fire projectiles/ Flame-throwing mechanisms

A Floral Feast - Feed carnivorous plants with three or more different kinds of treats
This is a pretty easy one that you can ONLY obtain during Level 7: Hushing Grove. Simply levitate any type of Goblin, box or lantern using Amadeus and then move it towards the giant plant's mouth. CHOMP!

.
.
Hammer Havoc - Kill an enemy with a thrown hammer bouncing at least once before kill
This is just for Pontius, find a ceiling that is fairly close to an enemy and have Amadeus hold them in place, then just keep throwing your hammer until you get the right angle! Luckily, you should get this naturally during play as I did.

Dirty Tactics - Get at least 10 enemies killed by other enemies' actions in a single level
Playing as Amadeus, simply hold an enemy with monster levitation and use them as a shield while other enemies shoot arrows and spears at you. Just watch your back!

Cannonball Rebound - Kill a grenadier goblin with its own cannonball
You will ONLY encounter the Grenadier Goblins in level 14: "The Heroes Return" and higher. You can either use Pontius' Gravity shield or Amadeus' powers to catch and hold the fired cannonball. Then you must push the cannonball against the goblin (Do NOT shoot the cannonball back as killing the Grenadier this way will not count) and wait until it blows up naturally.
.
.
Icebreaker - Shatter three frozen enemies within one second
Zoya can shoot frost arrows at a group of enemies, then Pontius can charge up his hammer and throw it into the group of sinister Ice cubes. However make sure that an archer goblin does not shoot his fellow frozen comrades, as I found out the hard way!

Snowman - Freeze two enemies and stack them on top of each other
This one is very simple. Simply freeze two enemies as Zoya, then as Amadeus, quickly levitate them into a small tower. You will have a time limit of sorts as the Goblins will eventually thaw out so I recommend doing this in Coop for maximum efficiency.

Off You Go - Capture a goblin in a Monster Prison and then launch it with a catapult
You will ONLY find Catapults in level 14: "The Heroes Return" as far as I am aware. Simply draw a box around a goblin as Amadeus and the levitate him on top of the Catapult mechanism.
(Pic coming soon)

Catch This! - Kill an enemy with an airborne object tossed with the Knight's charge
While playing as Pontius, you must charge into a box (NOT a conjured box as these break on impact) and it must fling into an enemy. I found that the achievement only works when the box lands on top of the enemy, rather than hitting them from the side, either way, try this from a slope. Another tip is to have a friend play as Amadeus and ask them to hold the enemy in place using Monster levitation. This way the Enemy will not move away from your incoming box!

Wicked Collection - Capture three different types of enemies inside boxes and stack them on top of another
Its easiest to use goblins for this challenge as they often spawn many at a time and have more variants than any other enemy. A general rule is just to imprison as many goblins as you can and then stack them and hope that you have met the achievement requirement!

This is Trine! - Kick five enemies of the same kind into a bottomless pit with the Thief's grappling hook kick or the Knight's Kitesail Shield glide kick
See ya!
Two great places to obtain this achievement are Level 12: Icewarden Keep and Level 15: Deadly dustlands.
Guide for Level 15: When you enter the temple and first meet the undead goblin mummies, trap them in cages as Amadeus and bring them to the edge on the right. Then just break open their cages and air-kick them off the edge as Pontius. Good luck!
This achievement is thankfully cumulative, which means you can restart a level and it will still track. I find that using Pontius' Kitesail is slower and therefore easier to control than Zoya's swinging kick.

= Easy to obtain.



= Only obtainable on specific level(s).



= Hard to Obtain.



Cirque de Zoya - Using grapple, swing around an object and reattach grapple again without touching any surface
This one is pretty easy, simply find a small wooden platform and gather momentum until you can swing around it completely. It also might help to have a coop partner play as Amadeus and hold a wooden box in place for you.


This Wasn't the Plan - Make a bubble sink for three seconds
As Amadeus, levitate a box ontop of a newly formed bubble and then force it downwards.

Surfboard Master - Stand on a plank floating on a single airflow for four seconds
Pipes with airflow only appear in a few levels. The best one to obtain this achievement is at the end of Level 2: Forlorn Wilderness or during Level 3: Mudwater Dale. As Amadeus, draw a plank directly below you while riding an airflow upwards. I've found that the smaller the plank, the more steady it is.
Surfs up!
.
.
Bouncy Bouncy - Stand on a conjured box bouncing on any bouncy surface for 10 seconds
The best level to attempt this in the Mushroom section during level 2: Forlorn Wilderness). The only advise I can give is just to keep trying!
.
.
Play Catch - Throw a box with Pontius' magnetic shield and catch it or have another player catch it
As Pontius, Fling a conjured box straight up in the air and move under it. When it impacts your shield, this achievement should pop.

A Hail of Arrows - Shoot 3 arrows in the air and catch them all with the Knight's shield
Simply shoot frost or fire arrows straight up into the air and then switch to Pontius, hold out your shield and move under the falling arrows. Keep repeating this until the achievement pops.

The Leaning Tower of Pontius - Build a three-piece or three-character tower where lowest part is Pontius and his shield, tower must stand at least five seconds
As Amadeus, Conjure 3 planks and lower them down onto Pontius' Shield. The shorter then planks, the more stable the "tower" will be. As Pontius, try to aim your shield directly upwards.

Pontius Transportation Company - Glide for five seconds with Kitesail Shield while having an object or character on top of the shield
There are two easy ways to obtain this achievement: Firstly you can have Zoya shoot a low gravity field arrow below you when you are high up, then just fall into the field and have Zoya jump on top of your shield, the higher up you begin this, the more time you will have in the air.
The easier method in my opinion is to have Pontius ride an air vent and then have Amadeus and/ or Zoya drop down on top of your shield while you "glide" in place.
.
.
Mutually Assured Destruction - Make a sandworm kill another sandworm
You will ONLY find Sandworms in Level 15: Deadly Dustland, even then there are not many so try to attempt this with the first pair you find. For this achievement you will have to bait one sandworm into shooting its acid projectiles into another. This is pretty straightforward but still quite tricky as you will need good reflexes to dodge the constant barrage of acid spits.
(Note: It should take around 6 to 7 hits to kill a sandworm via this method.)
This will test your reflexes!
.
.
High Rise - Construct a tower made of eight objects and stand on top of it
A good place to try this is Level 5: Petrified Tree. There will be a box dispenser in the large room with the rotating flamethrowers. Simply levitate the wooden boxes and place them on top of conjured boxes or bridges. Now all you have to do is ascend your work of art!
The box dispenser looks like this. Try not to destroy any of the boxes that spawn here as it will only spawn ONE box at a time!


Pontius Baseball - Launch an object with Knight's magnetic shield and break it with hammer before the object touches the ground
As Pontius, shoot a conjured box into the air above you with your gravity shield, quickly switch to Hammer, then throw it straight up into the falling box. This isn't a complex achievement but it does require timing and good reflexes.

Rafting - Create a makeshift raft of three separate parts and have a goblin sail it for five seconds
(Pics coming soon)
In the level Searock Castle (Level 10) carry 2 coconuts as Amadeus and bring them to the edge of the water on the right side before you ascend into the first combat area. Then grab one of the first goblins you see and bring him back with you to the coconuts. Then simply place a platform ontop of the coconuts. Place the Goblin ontop of your "Raft". As soon as you have done that, quickly switch to Zoya and use your invisibility Ability so the Goblin doesnt move away. If you have done all of these steps then the Goblin should stand on the raft for enough time!
