---

Let Them Fight – 4AP

For this achievement you need to deliver energy to the east side to recharge the Jade Behemoth which will help you on the fight against the final boss. The achievement will progress when the bar is filled so you will require your team to contribute energy as well. This achievement might take many runs as you need to do it a total of 20 times.

NOTE: You only need the Siege Turtle mount to collect the energy, but you can deposit while on foot and you will be able to clear the enemies contesting the circle faster by using your damaging skills instead of the mount, this can help more people progress the achievement.

---

---

Loaded for Demon – 4AP

When the west side energy is filled, your team can use the rifles to break the boss bar and standing on the circle will recharge your skill 3 for it. For this achievement you and your team needs to break the bar under 3 minutes of its appearance or recovery.

---

Special Ops Armor Collection – 10AP

To complete this collection you need to unlock all the Special Ops Armor skins, but just getting a set will unlock all weights, so you actually need 6 pieces only. Once completed you get the Special Ops Captain’s Helmet Skin as well.

---

---

Getting these skins will be a journey and a bit expensive so the first step is to organize/optimize your time and resources.

If you decide to craft these armor pieces yourself, you can obtain the recipes from Chin-Hwa at Daigo Ward Waypoint — [&BGUNAAA=] in Seitung Province. You will also need the rare skins unlocked first to be able to buy the exotic recipe, so make sure that you have enough currency for it, a total of 450 Unusual Coins for the rare skins and then 35 Unusual Coins for the recipes. (The rare skins can be unlocked from reward tracks too)

The first event happens just as night starts, it is called “Stop the extremist Speakers from binding the spirits” and once completed continues with “Escort Kyung to Zen Daijun’s main temple.” Finally the third part occurs at Zen Daijun Temple called “Defeat Tae-Sung, and stop him from harming the spirits” once you complete this event you will progress the achievement.

NOTE: Some people reported bugs getting credit on this one, I suggest you actively participate with the mechanics of the boss fight, by using your special skill on the spirits.

---

---

Start at Temple of the Dredge – [&BEANAAA=] when Verasha (who is coming from Kropa Village) meets the two Ritualists Alina and Solon. This event chain is pretty straight forward, collect, escort, capture point and boss fight, all the events will hint some of the special mechanics that the boss will use, like the blue light knockback, the red arrow elemental and an extra “light safe zone” but nothing too complicated.

NOTE: This chain will start a few minutes after completing the event “Protect the ritualists while they repair the shrines” near the Temple of the Dredge, which is the same event required to access the jade portal for the mastery insight.

First event is called “Gather fungal residue to stabilize Verasha, the Speaker defector” then it continues with “Protect Verasha while she disables Igne Mossheart’s wards”, next is the event called “Disrupt Igne Mossheart’s followers in their ritual” and finally the boss “Defeat Igne Mossheart before he completes the ritual”, completing this last one will progress the achievement.

This is a chain of three events, starting with “Drive the wallows out of the Altrumm Mines” then continues with “Use bombs to shatter amber deposits and recover the chunks” and finally the boss “Defeat the rampaging amber elemental”, completing this last one will progress the achievement.

BUG: Currently at the time this guide is published, there are multiple reports that the first event in the chain won’t start on most map instances due to an unknown bug. If you see Alchemist Lin and Gui NPCs stuck on the town it means the event won’t start on that map. Try again later or swap instances using LFG groups. You can use the chat command “/ip” to know the number of your overflow and try to find a different one in the LFG where the event might spawn.

Collection Achievements

Energized Tools of the Luxon Hunters – 10AP

For this achievement you need to unlock all 16 Energized Luxon Hunter’s weapon skins. You can obtain these as random drop from the chests in the Gyala Delve meta-event or buying them from Trading Post

---

---

Manifest Weapons

These collections can be unlocked by purchasing their “Historical Weapon Diagram” from the Requisitions Specialist NPC at Gyala Delve. Each one costs 100 Research Notes + 17,500 Karma, but once you buy one the price for the rest will increase by 100, the weekly limit (5) will reset the cost.

---

---

Not sure if more weapons of this set will be added later, but at the moment I suggest to buy all the diagrams at once (at higher price, a total of 1500 Research Notes) because their collections have 3 of 5 objectives in common, this means that completing a task once will get credit for all collections at same time, so this will drastically reduce the completion time for them. Like for example completing a fractal, a meta-event, and mining jade nodes.
