Hello and welcome to the trophy guide for this awesome game! I really recommend to clear all maps and get the trophies all by yourselves without using any guides, however, for the "in hurry" people, I decided to make this useful guide. Hope I will help you.

 

Road Map:

 

Overview:

-Estimated trophy difficulty: 5/10 (without a guide), 2/10 (with a guide) (Trophy Difficulty Thread)

-Overall number of trophies: 12

-Offline: 12

-Online: 0

-Approx time to 100%: 3-4 hours with guide, 9-12 hours without

 

Where should I start? (For normal players)

First, start collecting the 10, 20 and 30 wave trophies, you can get them all by completing 1 map. After getting those, complete all maps in all worlds to get the world trophies. While completing the maps, you can use the guide to do a perfect game, without losing any crystals, which will earn you one more trophy. After 10 completed maps you should earn 50 000 points in total, that will give you a silver trophy. So now you've done all the easiest trophies, time for the tough ones! The two remaining trophies are Four-Star Strategist and Good Samaritan. I would go for Good Samaritan first, by using the guide I have written below it should be a piece of cake, but a bit annoying because you will need to run from your computer to your PS3. And finally Four-Star Strategist, I would recommend you doing as the last trophy. Just improve your highest scores and you will get it!

 

I really need those trophies! FAST! (For crazy trophy hunters)

If you really want it fast without even enjoying the game, then prepare a piece of paper and a pencil, because you will write a lot of stuff! So in the beginning, you can get 5 trophies at once, choose Kthilli Sands in W2 and watch the video mentioned in my guide at the Good Samaritan trophy, you can write all the turns on a piece of paper. So just copy the turns of the player in the video, and you get 5 "tadah" sounds. Then you will have to wait a little untll next trophy wave will show up, complete all maps in the game, but get over 9000-10 000 points on each (easy if you use the guide), so you get Four-Star Strategist faster! So after you cleared all maps, you will earn 7 more trophies, and that's all! You got all trophies in 2 steps!!!

Trophy Guide:

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/000.jpg Novice Defender (B)

Clear wave 10 on any single map.

 

You will get this after you successfully finish one map (each map has 30 waves). Try the first one in W1, if you have trouble with it.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/001.jpg Seasoned Defender (B)

Clear wave 20 on any single map.

 

Again, you will get this trophy after completing 1 map so use the DevPlay feature.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/002.jpg Expert Defender (B)

Clear all the waves on any single map.

 

This is the third trophy you will get by completing 1 map. Easy. No need for further information.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/003.jpg W1 Defender (B)

Clear all the maps in W1.

 

You need to complete 4 maps in W1 for this trophy. You can use DevPlay or these videos to help you complete the whole W1.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/004.jpg W2 Defender (B)

Clear all the maps in W2.

 

You need to complete 4 maps in W2 for this trophy. You can use DevPlay or these videos to help you complete the whole W2.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/005.jpgW3 Defender (B)

Clear all the maps in W3.

 

You need to complete 4 maps in W3 for this trophy. You can use DevPlay or these videos to help you complete the whole W3.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/006.jpg Crystal Hoarder (B)

Clear a single map without losing any crystals.

 

You need to complete 1 map without losing any crystals. If you need help with it, see the videos I posted in the W1, W2, W3 Defender trophies, they also show you how to complete every map without losing any crystal (1 map will be enough though).

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/007.jpg Champion Defender (B)

Clear all 12 maps.

 

Simple, no explanation needed. If you have trouble with any map, use the videos I posted above.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/008.jpg Veteran Strategist (S)

Accumulate a total score of 50,000 points.

 

See Four-Star Strategist

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/009.jpgOverachiever (S)

Clear a map with more than 10,000 points.

 

For this one, you need to clear a map with 10,000 or more points. You get the most points for the remaining money (Gils), so try to save them, but also don't let the monsters take any of your crystals!

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/010.jpg Four-Star Strategist (S)

Accumulate a total score of 100,000 points.

 

You need to get 100,000 points in total score. Only the highest score on every map counts, for example your high score on a map is 10,000 points, then you decide to play the same map and you achieve the score of 11,000 points, your total will be 11,000 now, not 21,000!!! This is a very important note! You have to keep "upgrading your score" so the total of all highest scores on each available map is 100,000 points. Just play the maps where your highest score is low, try aiming for 10,000 points on each map.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/110/011.jpg Good Samaritan (G)

Clear a map without deploying a Thief or losing a single crystal.

 

After completing W2 (if I'm not mistaken) you will unlock the second page of DevPlay, there is a hint (showing 15 waves of how you should deploy your units) made especially for this trophy. Remember, you can't deploy thieves and you also can't lose any of your crystals.

Well without guides I would give it a 5/10 or a 6/10 of difficulty rating, but it's more fun though when you clear the map all by yourself! :) And no problem mate, happy that the guide came in handy. :)

Thanks, it's a nice guide it will come in handy I've only done the first map so far.:D

 

It took me about 5 tries to clear that map!

 

The game is great, this guide will need some work though. For the first three trophys you can state that they are stackable, and point to the video which is in fact below rather than above your text. For the "Champion Defender" trophy could you state the names of all of the levels. A roadmap at the start of the guide would also be useful, more info on roadmaps here

 

A guide/ roadmap needs to be directed toward someone who has never played the game before. It's a good start to a guide and with some improvements it will be stickied and if submitted can be linked to the main site.

 

EDIT: Guide Stuck

Good Samaritan trophy video guide is failing at Wave 22.

Followed the video 100% accurate and still I get owned by the fuckers at Wave 22 7 times in a row.

 

Edit:

Also, I get less money then the player in video despite I dont loose any crystal until wave 22. In my rounds so far I lack these upgrades before wave 22:

1 Red Crystal + L upgrade (50+100 gold)

Soldier upgrade from 5 to 6. (150 gold)

Archer upgrade from 4 to 5 (100 gold?)

 

approx 450 gold, where do he get the extra money ?

the video is in kthili sands but i found it easier to do in melby point, it's easy follow the devreplay until 15 then try to upgrade a lot and also use mages and chrono-mages (dunno in english, game is in french) cause their your best friends, speed crystals are very good also cause you do even more damage like this

i will try to put my replay on youtube so i can show it to you

 

i need only one more trophy, the 4-star strategist... it kills me just to think that i have to get even bigger hi-scores

 

sorry for my bad english i'm from switzerland

Same here, I wish the video uploader would just pause to see all the level status like he did on the first two of the W1 guide... Plus, I'm getting owned on W2 Kthill Wave 22 even I have followed everything he did and it failed.

 

Someone need to fix this mess to make it more understandable..
