Unaware of the myth of The Baconing, the hero DeathSpank, on a boring day in Spanktopia, decided to try on all of the undergarments at once. Much to his surprise, the result had nothing to do with chafing or wedgies, but rather the summoning of an evil incarnation of himself, the AntiSpank. Balance can only be restored to the world by entering the Fires of Bacon and destroying five of the thongs. Now, DeathSpank travels the lands to find a sizzling solution to vanquish the AntiSpank and bring about peace once again to Spanktopia. (Source: The Baconing) Roadmap Step 1: Complete the game on any difficulty The game is very linear and quests are straightforward this time around, and there are no missable trophies. Play and enjoy the game normally and you'll unlock the following naturally by the end of the game. If you need help with the puzzles, do refer to Game Over Man! for solutions Tea, Earl Grey, hot. Blade Ruiner Stay On Target. Game Over Man! These trophies below will require a bit of work either by repeating an action in combat or completing sidequests, but none are even remotely close to difficult. Bashing Success - Shield Bash 1000 Times. Never tell me the odds - Perform a 10x attack chain. Who Wants to Live Forever? - Become a God. [sidequest] Reflectology - Reflect 100 Ranged Attacks. Are you not entertained? - Become the Tournament Champion.[sidequest] Take a #3 - Find all 41 Outhouses. Predator - Kill 2000 Enemies Step 2: Complete the game on Insane difficulty There are no noticeable differences between Insane and the rest of the difficulties (), and you'll already know what to do this time around. Just complete the game again for Death Blossom Edited March 1, 2015 by yewjhin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yewjhin Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/01.jpg Tea, Earl Grey, hot. Program a Replicator. This is your main objective after you’ve started the game and shortly after come across Doorphan who gives you the quest. The Replicator machine is the next to Doorphan, and can only be operated by inserting punch cards #3, #5 and #4 in that order. You’ll be automatically given Cards #3 & #4. For #5, you have to follow the path leading east all the way to the end where there is a “Hole Punch” machine, next to a Weapon Vendor. Insert a blank punch card into the machine to create Card #5. Go back and use the Replicator machine. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/02.jpg Bashing Success Shield Bash 1000 Times. To Shield Bash, you have to hold until Deathspank flashes, then release it when enemies are around him to bash them away. You can farm this on any group of melee enemies, even at the start of the game, by cornering them and repeatedly performing this action as it does no damage. You can check your progress by using the “Book-O-Stats” in the Inventory tab. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/03.jpg Never tell me the odds Perform a 10x attack chain. You perform an attack chain when you mix up attacks from different weapons. An example is to alternate between two melee weapons ( … ) until you build up 10 hits, which is a 10x attack chain. This can be done on multiple enemies though its easier to do on large enemies with long health bars and bosses so you can always lock on to them by holding . Alternatively, ghosts (near Ghostly Outhouse in the starting zone) are good targets to try this on as normal weapons can't hurt them, but your hits still register and you can still perform an attack chain. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/04.jpg Blade Ruiner Kill 100 Cyborques. Any defeated enemy whose name starts with “Cyborque ….” counts for this trophy. You’ll get it naturally as you progress because the many areas are full of them and the game is pretty linear. You can check your progress by using the “Book-O-Stats” in the Inventory tab. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/05.jpg Who Wants to Live Forever? Become a God. [spoiler=god]You obtain this trophy by completing Zeus’ sidequests “First Labor” “Second Labor” and “Twelfth Labor” in Valhalla Heights. Despite the titles, you only have to perform 3 feats, which are: First Labor - Clear out his garden of hostile plants Second Labor - Lure the Thorsian goats in the southeast of his estate to the back his estate and let them attack the Goat Thistles there Twelfth Labor - Defeat Berabus in Hels Half Acres (north of Smelly Outhouse) Edited September 22, 2011 by yewjhin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yewjhin Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/06.jpg Reflectology Reflect 100 Ranged Attacks. To reflect a Ranged Attack (Arrows, Energy Orbs), hold until Deathspank flashes, then release it just as the projectile is about to hit you to reflect it back at the originator, which causes damage. You can check your progress by using the “Book-O-Stats” in the Inventory tab. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/07.jpg Stay On Target. Reach Level 20. As long as you are diligent in completing sidequests given and killing every enemy in your progress to the next area, you’ll max out at Level 20 around the time you enter Hel’s Half Acre, which is the last zone of the game. Otherwise, just grind kills in this zone until you hit Level 20. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/08.jpg Game Over Man! Beat the game on any difficulty. Beat the game once on any difficulty, which will unlock Insane difficulty. Fake Ballot Name Puzzle [spoiler=ballot] District 4 - Edgar Van Hinklestink District 3 - Todarian Krommentoner District 2 - Ballamarr Higglewiggins District 1 - Sherkwalk Mollybarner Colored Cartridge-Bridge Puzzle [spoiler=bridge] North Pole - Insert Red, Purple, Green. After getting 1st half of the code: Remove red, insert Yellow, defeat the enemies and open the chest for another Cartridge South Pole - Remove Green, Insert into Blue and move to the south. ZIMON Color Memory Puzzle [spoiler=color] Red, Blue Yellow, Red Blue, Green, Blue, Yellow, Blue Red, Red, Yellow, Blue, Green, Red, Red Green, Yellow, Green, Green, Yellow, Green, Yellow Random Barnacle Lake [spoiler=lk] Sail east to Wellspring lake, enter the Cave of the Bucket and defeat the Wellkeeper. He drops an Empty Bucket. Interact with the well and use Barnacle Spores, then use the Empty Bucket to obtain "Well Bucket with Barnacled Water". Sail north to Talking Stick Peninsula, enter the cave, interact with the Empty Glass and use "Well Bucket with Barnacled Water" then talk with the Wellkeeper and ask him to have a drink. Talk to him again to obtain the "Talking Stick". Use "Barnacle Spores" then "Empty Bucket" on the well here again. Sail south-west to Overripe Fruit Island. Give the Wellkeeper the Talking Stick, and tell him the statue is dirty. Use "Barnacle Spores" on the well, and tell him to have a drink. Obtain Overriped Fruit from him afterwards. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/09.jpg Are you not entertained? Become the Tournament Champion. The Arena is located in Forbidden City in the Forbidden Zone. There are 20 Matches that you must pass before you are crowned Tournament Champion. Each match is an individual sidequest that is undertaken from the Tournament Announcer at the entrance. A Weapon Vendor and Potions Vendor are located to his left so you can replenish any items you want conveniently. Matches 1-5 can be done while you’re at Level 5 Matches 6-13 can be done while you’re at Level 10 Matches 13-20 are best undertaken when you’re at Level 19-20. Bring along Orbs of Invulnerability and plenty of Health Potions. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/10.jpg Take a #3 Find all 41 Outhouses. Once again, another trophy for finding all Outhouses in Deathspank. This time, the Outhouses are all in plain sight and are almost impossible to miss as you progress through the game. Make sure to activate them by going up to the Outhouse and press to enable teleportation. A map is shown below which lists each Outhouse in the order of which you'll encounter them: [spoiler=41]http://i.imgur.com/WaiFhDc.png The First Outhouse Research Outhouse Spanktopia Outhouse Locksmith Outhouse Ghostly Outhouse Forbidden Zone Outhouse Big Game Hunter Forbidden City Arena Outhouse West Canals Outhouse North Canals Outhouse South Canals Outhouse North Adept Outhouse South Adept Outhouse Outhouse of Tomorrow Ima Outhouse Dick Outhouse Garden Outhouse Elroy Outhouse Chastity Outhouse Rainbow's End Outhouse Casino Outhouse Toxic Outhouse Barnacle Lake Outhouse Alien Vacation Island Outhouse Well Spring Island Outhouse Charmed Island Outhouse Talking Stick Island Outhouse Overripe Fruit Island Outhouse Cyborque Beach Outhouse Cyborque Camp Outhouse Valhalla Heights Outhouse Zeus Outhouse Country Club Outhouse Pro Shop Outhouse Par-4-Ever Outhouse Thor Outhouse Follow The Clues Outhouse Smelly Outhouse Hades Outhouse Hollow Outhouse http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/11.jpg Death Blossom Beat the game on Insane difficulty. Insane difficulty is unlocked after you’ve beat the game once on any difficulty. There is no New Game+. Reloading your last completed playthrough and changing the difficulty won't work either. As far as I can tell the game plays the same and there is no noticeable difference in damage received and dealt by you even when compared with Downtrodden (Very Easy) difficulty. You are advised to pick the Health and Damage upgrades each time you level up to give yourself an easier time, instead of picking the other less beneficial upgrades. Stock up on Health Potions and Invulnerability Orbs before the final battle because you'll need them. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1036/12.jpg Predator Kill 2000 Enemies You can check your progress by using the “Book-O-Stats” in the Inventory tab. It needs to be 2000 kills in a single save file, not across multiple save files. Upon completion of your first playthrough you’ll likely be somewhere in the range of 1400-1600 kills. Reload the same save file and grind the rest of your kills in the early zones such as Forbidden Zone and Forest of Tomorrow where you’ll overpower enemies easily with your current level. Killing neutral critters (chickens) using weapons count, but environmental kills (via exploding barrels etc..) do NOT count.

yewjhin Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 I'm stuck on the casino bacon fire... I can't defeat the opera guy :S tips Stay away from the Spotlight, the Conductor will chase you but his only attack is a lightning zap from time to time. While he's not attacking you can run around eating food to heal up yourself, or use range attacks. If you are feeling confident, or are strong enough, use an Invulnerability Orb and melee him until the orb expires. A Nature or Death/Unholy weapon will come in useful. When he summons musicians and other goons, defeat the musicians first as they heal him when they play music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yewjhin Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 how can i beat him? it's jun run? What's jun run? You either run and gun (hold while moving and fire your range weapon), or melee him while staying out of range from the spotlights that damage you.

Xan Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) Glad to see I'm not crazy when I noticed practically no difference in the damage dealt/taken on Insane compared to my first playthrough (on Downtrodden). The only difference I've been able to notice is that enemies don't seem to drop much cash, if at all, compared to the easier mode(s). Golden keys seem to be a bit rarer (I only seem to have about 3 on me at any one time compared to about 6+ on Downtrodden) but that could just be based on luck anyway and perhaps I was luckier in my first run. Nice job on the guide/roadmap, yewjhin. If I may make a suggestion, perhaps you could list some of the simpler but otherwise time-consuming puzzles/quests in the Game Over Man! and/or Death Blossom section to save some time. Like the names of the 4 dead citizens of Forbidden City for the ballot-tampering, or the solutions to Z.I.M.O.N.'s memory puzzle. Just little things like that to save some time for those that have or haven't completed the game seem like they would be of great help.

Blaze Naruto Shippuden Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 That was fast. I still never played and finished the first two games even though i brought them.

Brandon_2535 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Can you free roam after completing the story, or should I make an effort to go for all the missable trophies on the way? Yes, you can free roam after completing the story. Better yet, the stats from all of your game saves will count if you're going for stat-related trophies or whatever. So, if you have 10 kills on one game save and 10 kills on a different game save, you will actually have 20 total kills towards the kill-related trophy.
