Lord of the Ley Dance (1AP)
Avoid all ley-hazard damage during the first trial.
During the first trial, avoid both the orange circles and telegraph around Aurene while standing in Aurene’s circle until she completes absorbing the magic. If you go in a party, sometimes they don't spawn where you are at.
Branded-on-a-Stick (1AP)
Pierce four or more Branded with a single use of the Dragonsblood spear.
During the second trial, use the Dragonsblood spear to pierce four or more Branded mobs. After grabbing the Dragonsblood Spear, Branded mobs will spawn. Line them up and use the special ability!
Power Player (1AP)
Charge three crystals with the magic of veteran Branded foes.
During the second trial, everytime you charge a crystal to half bar, one veteran mob will spawn. Make sure you kill that one veteran mob inside the circle. There is only ONE veteran mob for each crystal.
Try to kill the regular Branded foes outside the circle so that you won't accidentally fully charge it with just the regular mobs.
When I was doing this, for some reason I thought that it would disqualify the achievement if any regular mob was killed inside the circle (which was why I tried to pull them ALL out of the circle lol). Fortunately this is not the case! You just have to make sure that the veteran mob charges the crystal.
Trial By Fire (1AP)
Avoid getting hit by Branded Aurene's breath attacks.
Avoid getting hit by the big rectangular attacks from Branded Aurene, as well as the tornadoes.
Conquer Your Fear (1AP)
Execute a powerful and cooperative strike on Branded Aurene with Aurene.
During the final trial, stand close to Aurene when Branded Aurene is grounded. Break the bar and a special ability key will appear. Spam it!
Bunker Buster (3AP)
Destroy 10 Branded creatures by using the Resonating Blast skill inside the auditorium.
During the part where you have to channel Aurene’s magic through the overcharged resonance crystal, use the special action key on the crystal and it will kill all the branded in the room. You may need to repeat the instance.
Stubborn (10AP)
Complete the Crystal Dragon without accepting aid from the weaponsmith, armorsmith, or chef.
Do not accept the optional objectives to eat nourishing food or buff your weapon or armor.
Electrophobia (10AP)
Complete the Crystal Dragon without taking damage from environmental hazards.
Watch out for the branded lines on the ground as well as orange telegraphs.
Crystal Circuit Race (10AP)
Finish the attack on Kralkatorrik in under 15 minutes.
Recommended to do in a group so that you can charge the crystals faster. Remember to use the Dragonsblood Spear to break bars. Only the instance owner will get the achievement.
Appropriately Hyped (hidden) (1AP)
Hype up a Pact soldier, but don't push it too far.
Talk to Pact Soldier Varren & hype him up! He is right by the optional food supply buff table.
