http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/01.jpgHumble Beginnings (B)

Story related. Just run through the tutorial and this will pop.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/02.jpgZombie Hunter (B)

Story related Act 2. Defeat Zulac. Make sure to let him activate 3 spells during this battle for an award.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/03.jpgBasilisk’s Bane (B)

Story related Act 3. Defeat Iriki.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/04.jpgGiant Slayer (B)

Story related Act 4. Defeat Arokk.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/07.jpgSkillfully Done (B)

Train any one of your Hero's skills to 25. You'll get there eventually. The fastest way to get there is by training at the "Training Center" in the last map of Act 2. You'll unlock it by obtaining the holy cross for the villiage priest.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/08.jpgDungeon Delver (B)

Unlock 10 dungeons. If you unlock all dungeons as you go, you should get this the second time you take over a ship (First map of Act 3, IIRC).

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/10.jpgDog Trainer (B)

Train you Warhound to level 25. This can be done during Act 3.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/11.jpgCraftsman (B)

Craft 10 items. This can be done the first time you unlock a crafting statue. Just make sure you have 10 different low-level items, two of each (or 20 of the same item). Get this done on the map you first find a market (Second Map of Act 1), as there are only 2 maps until the crafting statue. You can go back to the market if you forgot.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/05.jpgStory’s End (S)

Story related. Finish the game. Defeat Horned Daemon. Make sure to exit to the main menu before this fight, change the difficulty to "Deathbringer," and defeat him for an Award.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/06.jpgConquering Hero (S)

Win 15 ranked online matches against another player. Easily done, if you can connect. Click here for a Boost.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/359/09.jpgFinder of Secrets (S)

Unlock one secret boss. Can be done on the first map of Act 1. Just defeat a monster in an unlocked dungeon in under 2 minutes.

 

Deathbringer (G)

Complete all 60 awards in one playthrough of the game. There is a menu with a list of Awards. Press :r1: and highlight the villiage icon to see the list. Some rely completely on luck, and can be time consuming. I will add a list when time permits.

 

Note: If you missed the awards for Zulac, the Final Boss, or your Warbeast, you can go into Quick Battle from the main menu, find the boss, and still obtain the awards! Thanks to Blood Sky (and Struwel) for the excelent tips!

 

See here for a complete list of Ultimate Gear.

I didn't read the descriptions to all the awards before I started, so I missed out on the Zulac in-game award.

Can you go back and fight Zulac again to get the award? Or did I screw myself out of the Deathbringer trophy?

 

You must do both boss awards in one play. There is no way to re-fight a boss once you have already defeated them.

 

Awards do not carry over to a new game, either.

Fortunately this is not the case. I thought this game was like all other puzzle games, where quick battle was just against a random opponent. Luckily, however, you can choose to re-fight ANYONE (even the final boss) in "Quick Battle". So you can go back and get the Zulak award in quick battle.

You can even get Award #51 (Win a boss battle without using your warbeast) and award #15 (Defeat the horned deamon on the hardest difficulty) in quick battle.

So thankfully, it looks like you can get every single award in one playthrough. None are missable.

 

Read below, in the spoiler tags, for how to get Award 15 in quick battle. It contains slight story spoilers, however. You have been warned.

[spoiler=1988]Select Single Player. Choose your hero that you have completed the story with, and then choose "Difficulty". Now choose the hardest difficulty, titled "Deathbringer" (the one that awards 50% extra gold for battles). Now, press :cross: to confirm your change. After the game saves, go up to "Quick Battle". Now you can choose ANY enemy to fight against. Keep pressing :l1: or :r1: until you get to Malvedor. After you have defeated Malvedor, you should be taken back to the Single Player menu screen. This is where your award should pop up.

 

 

[special thanks goes out to Struwel for messaging me over the PSN and bringing the fact that you can quick battle bosses to my attention!]

No problem, I'll try to help out as much as I can. If you decide to make a Deathbringer/Awards guide, feel free to use my tip on how to get award 15 in it. Assuming the person did not follow your guide or forgot to change the difficulty before fighting the Horned Daemon.

 

Anyways, solid guide so far. Keep up the good work!

for me, one of the longest was the "Destroy 500 Green Power Gems" Award.

if this is taking you a while too, the best setup i've found is to have the following equipped:

Helm - Helm of Darkness (increases chance of blue & green gems by 10%)

Accessory - Corruptor Harp (turns 10 blue gems to green)

Ring - Serpentine (turns 10 random gems to green)

Familiar - Zichrie (top right fairy) (25% chance of green gems)

 

the other one that's taking me a while is to get all of the Ultimate Weapons. i'm putting together a checklist that might help and will post when that's completed.
