Deadliest Warrior is an old school arcade style fighting game based on a T.V. show which pits history's greatest warriors against each other to determine who is truly the deadliest warrior. This game expands upon that, giving you 8 different warriors from across history for you to battle with. From the ancient battle tanks that were the Spartans, to the terrors of the seas know as Pirates. They each have unique play styles, so pick your favourite and lets jump on in:

 

Step 1: Arcade Mode.

 

Here you will want to go through Arcade Mode with each of the warriors. When you get to the Knight, Ninja and Viking, be sure to set the difficulty to "Deadliest" beforehand via the options screen. You can have it set on any difficulty you want for the other warriors. This will earn you "Whose Deadliest Now?". While you are playing though, try your best to accomplish the challenges within Arcade Mode. This will take a fair chunk out of "Deadliest Arsenal", as well as possibly earn you some of the various trophies for doing random tasks.

 

Step 2: Deadliest Arsenal.

 

Now you will want to focus on completing the challenges within Arcade Mode for each character to unlock their alternate equipment. See "Deadliest Arsenal" in the guide below for more information. This will also possibly net you a few more of the random task trophies.

 

Step 3: Online

 

In this step you will head online and tackle "Tournament to Kill", which requires you to win 10 online tournaments. If you would like to boost this head on over to the boosting thread here: Trophy Boosting Thread. Or you can get it the normal way. See the guide description for "Tournament To Kill" trophy for more tips and info on this step. This also may get you a few of the various random task trophies.

 

Step 4: Clean Up

 

This is the most time consuming of the 4 steps. Here you will go after any of the various task trophies you may have left such as "Pin Cushion", "Flesh Wound", "Black Knight".... etc.... These can all be done in a Local Match with a second controller or if you don't have a second controller, they can be done online with a friend, or in any of the single player modes. They are by far easiest in a local match, however. At some point, head on into Survival Mode for the "Against All Odds" trophy. If you have been following this roadmap and guide, you should have 100% of the trophies after this step.

Trophy Guide

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/01.jpg A Head of the Competition (B)

Decapitate 100 enemy warriors as the primary player.

 

There are a few different ways that are most effective for decapitating an enemy. The easiest I have found so far is to use the Spartan equiped with the default sword, run instantly up to the enemy and press :square:, which will make a strike to your opponent's neck. Press :square: until the enemy either dies, or loses his head. Don't continue the combo by pressing :square: again, that may hinder the decapitation. Press it once, then wait and press it again. Another easy way is to use the Pirate, weaken the enemy, then throw a bomb with :triangle: and :square: at the same time. This will almost always decapitate the enemy.

 

A few general tips:

  • Fight against an enemy with little to no armor. This makes the Apache the perfect target for decapitations.
  • Play against yourself. Go into a local match and turn on a second controller, and have the other warrior just sit there while you attempt to decapitate him. Each match has 2 rounds, and after them, simply hit rematch.

This trophy will take a while, but it is by no means difficult. You will probably get a few of these in your time spent in Single Player, but you most likely won't get even nearly 100, so this will take a little bit of grinding.

 

You can check your progress on this on the statistics page via Options-->Battle Statistics.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/04.jpg Pin Cushion (B)

Stick 4 projectiles in a single opponent as the primary player.

 

This is a very, very simple trophy. There are 2 incredibly easy ways to do this:

 

1) Start a local match against another controller and just leave him sitting there. (Preferably as an Apache, due to its lack of armor.) Choose the Samurai for yourself. As soon as the battle starts, walk over to the Apache and press :circle:. This will make the Samurai shoot an arrow from his Yumi bow and the odds are, this arrow will stick into the enemy. You have 5 arrows, stick 4 of them into the enemy and this trophy will unlock.

 

2) Start a local match against another controller just like in the previous strategy (against the Apache again) but this time, choose the Apache for yourself. He has a bow as well so pressing :circle: will fire an arrow into your enemy. Stick 4 arrows in the enemy and this trophy is yours.

 

You may very well get this just by playing through single player but if you don't, then it can quickly be gotten in local play.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/02.jpg Against All Odds (B)

Defeat 25 warriors in Survival Mode as the primary player.

 

This one is actually pretty difficult. Survival Mode is just like it sounds. You choose your character and then have endless enemies sent in one after another until you die. You can unlock it by beating Arcade Mode with every warrior. You need to kill 25 enemies before you die to unlock this trophy. Make sure the difficulty is set to normal as well if you want this to be as easy as possible.

 

You should pick whichever warrior you are best with but I personally recommend using the Spartan. He is able to take a lot of damage, strike with a lot of power and move pretty quickly. If you get a combo in before the enemy has a chance to hit you, you're pretty much set, so strike quickly using the :square::square::square: combo a lot. If you do this after unlocking better equipment for him, this will be even easier.

 

The best tip I can give, is to pick a warrior with a shield so you can block poison arrows and blowdarts. You get hit by one of those, your health will continue to drop every second. You will be dead much sooner than you will be able to kill 25 enemies.

 

If you are having trouble, refer to the general tips in Whose Deadliest Now?

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/06.jpg Flesh Wound (B)

Perform a final strike on an opponent after your arm has been sliced off as the primary player.

 

You will possibly get this in your time in Single Player but if you didn't, then simply set up a local match. This one can be kind of tough. You need to play on the second controller and slice of an arm, then quickly switch over to your main controller and kill the enemy with a final strike before you bleed to death. Once you have a dismembered limb, your health slowly depletes so you have to be quick. I recommend using a more heavily armored warrior so he doesn't take as much damage, meaning you can get more strikes at the arms.

 

The Viking has a nice downward slash by using :triangle::triangle: which has a decent potential to chop off arms, so I recommend using that. It can be done with any character using middle attacks (:square:) but it's easier with the Viking in my personal experiences.

 

A very important thing to do first is to weaken the Viking or whatever warrior you are using to cut off the arm, so that you can dispatch him quickly. Once you manage to get the arm cut off, you need to get the kill with a "Finishing Blow". Just killing the enemy the standard way isn't enough. The final blow is done with different buttons for most warriors, so press :start: and go to your moves list if you don't know what it is. It will be the very bottom attack and always involves pressing 2 buttons at the same time. If it lands, you will kill your opponent, and the trophy will unlock.

 

As I said, this one is a bit difficult, so it will likely take quite a few tries, but keep at it and it will happen.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/07.jpg On Death's Door (B)

As the primary player, kill and opponent while at critical health, with your leg and arm injured.

 

You will most likely get this by playing through Single Player. If not, you can easily get it in a local match.

 

Start as an Apache so you have little armor, and choose whomever for you opponent. Control your opponent and run up to the Apache and use low attacks (:cross:) to damage the Apache's leg. 2 hits should suffice. Then switch and attack the arms using middle attacks. (:square:). 2 or 3 hits and the arms should be sufficiently damaged. Now switch back to the other conrtoller and finish off your enemy. If the limbs were damaged enough, the trophy will unlock.

 

If the trophy didn't unlock, then the odds are you didn't damage the limbs enough. You can see visible wounds on the limbs that will tell you whether the limbs are hurt enough. Also, look at how he walks. If he is hobbling, you should be damaged enough on the legs at least. If one of the arms go limp, it is damaged enough as well, so look for these key details to make sure you will get the trophy.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/08.jpg Right on Time (B)

Perform only perfectly timed strikes to defeat an enemy as the primary player.

 

This one is also best gotten in a local match, although it will most likely come from just playing the game. Perfectly timed attacks mean every strike hits the opponent, and the combos are timed correctly. Playing against yourself in a local match ensures that the enemy will do nothing but sit there so you don't have to worry about them moving or blocking. Simply run up to them and hit them with a combo of :square::square::square:, then wait for the opponent to recover, then hit them with the combo again. Rinse and repeat until your opponent is dead. If all of your attacks hit the enemy at the right time, the trophy will unlock.

 

I got this trophy without even trying, so it will probably come naturally, but if you don't get it by playing through Single Player, it can easily be gotten in local matches.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/11.jpg Shishkabob (B)

Remove an enemy's head with a projectile and stick it into a wall as the primary player.

 

Again, you may get this by playing through single player but if not then we resort to the trusty Local Match. There are a few ways to do this that I found the most effective. Both of them involve going against the Apache.

 

The first, play as the Spartan and use the heavy throwing lance (this must be unlocked, it is not a default weapon). Throw it straight at the Apaches head from a fairly close distance. If the lance goes through the enemy's head and decapitates him, the trophy will unlock. You don't need the head to actually stick to a wall or anything - if the head comes off, the trophy will unlock. The default throwing spear will work as well but your chances are better with the secondary spear.

 

The second method is virtually the same, but you use the Viking. Once again, you will have to unlock his secondary projectile weapon, the double spear throw. Same as before, get semi-close to your enemy and throw the spears. If it sticks through the head and takes the head off the trophy will unlock. If not, kill him and try again. Just like before, the head doesn't actually have to stick to the wall. The default projectile (single spear) will work as well but it's easier with the double spears.

 

This trophy is not difficult, but getting the projectiles to work like you want can be a little annoying and it may take quite a few tries to actually get it to work.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/12.jpg Who's Deadliest Now? (B)

Defeat Arcade mode on the Deadliest difficulty as the Ninja, the Viking, and the Knight.

 

This one is very self-explanatory. Switch the difficulty to Deadliest from the main menu, then begin and finish Arcade Mode with the Ninja, Viking and Knight. If you lose a match, then you can retry so you won't have to start from scratch if you die so it isn't too bad but it can be difficult.

 

Gerenal Tips:

  • Don't forget about your projectile weapons! If your opponent is across the battlefield, why not send a few projectiles their way? Sometimes they will land, giving you some nice free damage on them! Also, sometimes the projectile will stick through the enemy's head and instantly kill them. Bonus!
  • Don't forget you can change weapon in the middle of the battle. Pressing :l1: will switch to a different weapon with a different range. If you're having difficulty getting close enough to use your close range weapon, switch to one with a little more length.
  • Use your finishing blow attacks. You can see what these are through the moves list. These pack a very powerful punch, so take advantage of any breaks in your opponent's guard and use it. They don't need to be in critical health, it still does a lot of damage, but if they are in critical health it will perform a nifty execution.
  • Blocking is absolutely key. If you aren't attacking, I recommend always having your block up with :l2: or :r2:. You still take damage while blocking but it is significantly less. Blocking is the difference between a win and a loss in this game. Don't forget to use it! You'll be surprised how big of a difference it makes.
  • The right stick (:rs:) allows you to dodge roll, or sidestep. This is almost as essential as blocking. It allows you to roll out of the way of an incoming attack, and leaves your opponent's back open to a strike of your own. You can dodge roll away from the enemy if you are in critical health. There's no shame in pulling out (that's what she said). Backing away from the enemy will give you time for your stamina to build back up, allowing for better attacks, blocks and sidesteps. A good dodge will can save your life and know when to pull out.
  • Your opponent not letting their guard down? Throw a leg sweep or shield bash! Press :r1: to sweep the ground/smack them with your shield to knock your opponent of his feet or break his guard. This can give you precious time to strike.

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/05.jpg That Was Sparta! (S)

Kill 300 Spartans as the primary player.

 

This one will take a long time. You will likely get a decent amount of Spartan kills through Single Player but not anywhere near 300 so we turn to our good friend the Local Match. Set a match against the Spartan and be whichever warrior you like, it doesn't matter, then kill the Spartan in the first round and again in the second round to end the match. That adds 2 kills to your total. Now click rematch and keep on grinding this out. It will take a while but it's mindless work and not difficult at all.

 

You can check the statistics to see how many you have killed via Main Menu-->Options-->Battle Statistics.

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/03.jpg Tournament to Kill (S)

Win 10 online tournaments as the primary player.

 

For this trophy you need 2 tournament fight wins in a row to unlock the final, then win the final for it to count as a tournament win. If you lose a tournament fight, then you will need to start your 3 win streak over. This means you will need to win 30 matches, in sets of 3 in a row. The easiest way is to boost this since the online is so dead but if you want to get it the real way, refer to the tips in Whose Deadliest Now? If you want to boost this trophy, go to this thread here: Trophy Boosting Thread

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/09.jpg Black Knight (S)

Remove all four limbs from the Knight during a single match as the primary player.

 

There is basically one way to do this. The only weapon with enough "boom" to get this done is the Pirate's bomb. Start up a match against the Knight and pick the Pirate for yourself. To use the bombs, press :triangle: and :square: at the same time. Make sure to be pointing in the general direction of the Knight or the bomb won't hit him and the odds are that the first bomb won't kill him but you have infinite bombs so just keep on throwing them until your opponent gets blown up. If he lost all of his limbs (which he almost always does) then the trophy will unlock. See here for a video Guide (credit to nelo ornelas):

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/768/10.jpg Deadliest Arsenal (G)

Unlock every weapon and armor available for every warrior as the primary player.

 

Every warrior has 4 unlockable pieces of equipment, which are unlocked by doing challenges. Challenges are done in the Arcade Mode. The challenges are:

 

  • Pig Carcass Challenge (unlocks main weapon, requires you to chop down a few pig carcasses in a certain time).
  • Fight Against Yourself in Arcade Mode (unlocks armor).
  • Limb Removal (unlocks secondary weapon, requires you to kill the enemy in a short time period, each strike removes limbs).
  • Beating Arcade Mode (unlocks projectile weapon.)

Arcade mode can be done multiple times if you don't manage to complete the challenges the first time, so don't worry. Once you have unlocked all 4 pieces of equipment for all of the warriors, this trophy will unlock.

 

If you are having trouble, then refer to the general tips in Whose Deadliest Now?

I cant do shishkabob and flesh wound :(

Both of those took me quite a while. They involve alot of luck because most of the time, the arm or head wont come off. The best advice I can give is to use the Heavy Lance for the Shiskabob and body strikes or the downward strikes if your using the Viking. Both take alot of patience and ALOT of tries.

You weren't kidding the one for taking off the arm was a pain had it once but didn't realize there was a special move so had to start over. Shiskabob though I got lucky just threw a spear while trying to get the other one and boom head came right off.:D

Easiest way for 100 decapitations is to use the pirate and on the final bomb to kill your opponent make sure you are close enough so that your bomb hits you as well. This negates the final blow cut-scene which sometimes happens instead of the blowing your opponent to pieces and getting your decapitations. I was having a hell of a time getting them with the spartan and this way it is 100% effective. Blowing up Spartans and getting my decapitations at the same time.

But sometimes it's a hit & miss. I tried that method several times, but no good. Only 1 out of 5 times I got my opponent in pieces.
