Introduction:

Warhammer: Chaosbane is an isometric ARPG in the same style as Diablo. You have difficerant characters that are better at certain things than others but can all be built to fill any roll while killing monsters for better and better loot to help you fight stronger monsters for even better loot. The campaign with dialogue is about 8 hours long, and if you skip the dialogue it is around 5 hours.

The game can be played entirely in co-op online or with a second controller, but keep in mind that if you are not the host several trophies seem to have some issues tracking properly, specifically the Side Activities in the Relic Hunts do not count for you, and if you disconnect from your partner it can mess up the Act trophies unlocking properly.

If you own the Slayer Edition or Witch Hunter DLC you will need to do a 6th run of the campaign with Haidar, the Witch Hunter for Happily ever after... , and if you complete any of the DLC Acts those bosses will be added to the requirements of Chaos hunting .

Walkthrough:

Step 1: Complete the game with all Characters and Full Set of Equipment

Run through the game with all of the characters playing on the highest difficulty you can. Can more than likely start with Hard or Very Hard with each character depending on their skillset. Recommend starting with the characters that have trophies tied to them (Empire Soldier, High Elf Mage, Wood Elf Scout, and Slayer), then complete the game with the Dwarf Engineer and if Happily ever after... didn't unlock the Witch Hunter. Progressing through the story the first time will slowly unlock features that will automatically be unlocked for all other characters you create.

Step 2: Relic Hunts, Side Activities and Blessing Items

After beating the game you will unlock Relic Hunts from the Collectors' Guild. You do not have to add any modifiers to the map for it to count towards the 50. Pick your favourite character and start doing relic hunts, going up in difficulty when you can to get better and better gear to allow you to challenge the boss on Chaos 5.

Step 3: Boss Rush and Cleanup

Boss Rush will put you in the arena with the boss of the act, you will just need to defeat them for the mission to end. Will need to defeat one on Chaos 5 or higher and the other three on Chaos 2 or higher. Then all that is missing is trading 50 gems with the Collectors' Guild and you have your platinum.

Kill all bosses in Boss Rush on at least "Chaos 2" difficulty
Boss Rush is unlocked after defeating the Great Unclean One in Act I but you cannot do Chaos difficulties until post game.

In the lap of the wrong Gods

Kill 1,000 cultists
The cultists are the humanoid enemies, if you are killing most enemies you come across this should unlock during Act II.
Horror of horrors

Kill 1,000 Ungors
The Ungors are what the game's NPCs refer to as "Beast Men". They are the least common of the basic enemies. If you kill most enemies you come across this should unlock during Act III.
Daemon slayer

Kill 1,000 daemons
The daemons are the most common enemy type. If you kill most enemies you come across this should unlock during Act I.
Scourge of Chaos

Kill 100 champions
Champions are enemies that have the longer health bars and drop loot when killed. The first mission in each Act will have no champions, then each mission will get progressively more as you go throug the Act. If you kill most enemies you come across this should unlock during Act II.
Death to all abominations

Kill a Jabberslythe
Story-related and cannot be missed.

You will encounter the first Jabberslythe in Act I during the mission The Hidden Path. It is a mini-boss whose healthbar is at the top of the screen. You will want to keep moving as it will summon small AoEs under you that do continuous damage, along with a tail slam that radiates out in a cone that will stun you. After defeating it the trophy is yours.
The urge to purge

Kill a Mutalith
Story-related and cannot be missed.

You will encounter the first Mutalith in Act I during the mission The Eye of Argoth. It is a mini-boss whose heathbar is at the top of the screen. It will summon small AoEs under you that do continuous damage, along with firiong an attack that has a bit of knockback on it. After defeating it the trophy is yours.
Coordinated

Complete your first set of equipment
Each type of gear has a set bonus for having 5/5 of that set equipped on you at the same time. You will need the Head, Chest, Arms, Legs, and Feet equipped with the same set, they do not need to be of the same rarity. Hold onto gear at the start until you unlock this.
Battle-ready

Be fully equipped
Simply have a gear item equipped into each equippment slot. The game will auto equip items into slots that are empty, so it will come naturally.
A shining example

Be fully equipped with rare or heroic items
Equip Rare (yellow) or Heroic (red) items into all your slots. This will come naturally as theses gear items have more bonuses on them than the others, so in time you will have these equipped in all slots.
Divine emissary

Buy all rewards available on the God Skill Tree
The description is a bit misleading as you will not get enough points to unlock every node on the God Skill Tree. Instead, once you reach level 50 and spend your 50th point in the God Skill Tree the trophy will unlock.
Kind soul

Donate 100 items to the Collectors' Guild
There is no option to sell items in the game so other than dropping them the only way to get rid of them is to donate them to the Collectors' Guild. Increasing your rank will unlock more passive skills and get you gold and fragments, along with unlocking the cosmetic for the items you have donated.
Hallowed be the gear

Bless your first item
See Possessed for more information.
Possessed

Bless a heroic item 50 times
At some point in the story you will get the ability to bless an item. First you will want to find a heroic item (red) then in the equipment screen press on it to enter the Bless screen. It will take 50 Fragments of a colour to bless an item, and you can repeat the bless on the same item over and over 50 times for the trophy if you wish. If you obtain a green drop item this will also count as a heroic item for blessing.
All that glitters...

Collect 100 Fragments
Fragments are occasionally dropped by enemies when kills or 100% chance dropped by enemies killed using Bloodlust. Pick up a total of 100 for the trophy; you will more than likely get this without even trying.
Deep pockets

Collect 1,000 pieces of gear
Collect a total of 1,000 pieces of gear; it does not need to be on the same character.
Treasure hunter

Find 100 rare or heroic pieces of gear
You will need to pick up Rare (yellow) or Heroic (red) gear for this trophy, it does not need to be on the same character.
Eyes on the prize

Find your first heroic item (not a quest reward)
Heroic gear is red and there will be a red dot on the map to indicate that one has dropped. Playing on Hard or Very Hard, the first Heroic I was found was during Act III. If you do not find any during the story playthroughs then doing Relic Missions for better gear on Chaos difficulties will for sure give you some Heroic gear.
Veni Vidi Vici

Kill a boss on "Chaos 5" difficulty
(1)
Once you have good gear and can handle Relic Hunts on Chaos 5, do a boss rush against the boss you find the easiest. The Great Unclean One is probably the easiest boss to do, but you can defeat any of the bosses that you want.
Curiouser and curiouser

Open 50 chests
In missions you will come across chests; open a total of 50 to unlock this trophy. If you are playing in co-op, only the person who opens the chest will have it count towards their total.
Opportunist

Complete a side activity
See Completionist for more information.
Completionist

Complete 50 side activities
While doing relic hunts there occasionally will be an activity that will pop up at the bottom of the screen. There are a total of four different side activites (Hunting, Invasion, Tracking, Altar Destruction). The activities need at least 1 of their task completed for it to count towards the 50 total. 2-3 can appear during a relic hunt so you should have this at about halfway through the 50 relic hunts.
Good strategist

Kill an elite with a build made from at least 90 Skill Points
As you progress through the story and level up you will get more Skill Points; the most Skill Points a character can have is 100. You will need to have a collection of skills that totals 90 or higher (10 or fewer points remaining) and then kill an elite, the enemies with longer healthbars.
Filthy rich

Acquire 100,000 gold pieces
You will need to have a total of 100,000 gold pieces. As gold is only used for paying for revives and for adding challenges to Boss Rush and Relic Hunts you should easily accumulate enough gold during a single playthrough of the campaign. If you do not, gold is shared between all your characters and it will unlock during subsequent runs of the campaign.

Get your feet wet

Finish the Prologue
Story-related and cannot be missed.

Starting a game with any character will take you through the prologue, will teach you the basics for your character and characters in general.
Drenched in vomit, but victorious

Finish Act I
Story-related and cannot be missed.

Act I takes place in the city of Nuln and the sewers beneath the city, the Act concludes after a fight with The Great Unclean One.
A worthy adversary

Finish Act II
Story-related and cannot be missed.

Act II takes place in the city of Praag, the Act will conclude after a fight with Bloodthirster.

Bloodthirster Slam Attack
The only boss attack in the game that doesn't have the most intuitive way to avoid the damage, when he flies up into the air and a red ring appears on the ground it will get smaller heading to the middle of the arena. When he slams back into the ground he does a arena wide AoE that deals massive damage, on higher difficulties it will just one shot you. To avoid this you need to stand on the small raised platform where you entered the arena.
Resist temptation

Finish Act III

Act III takes place in the Forest of Knives; the Act will conclude after a fight with the Keeper of Secrets.
