Introduction

The Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Maps & Characters pack contains eight brand-new characters, including many G1 fan favorites and three new character skins. A new expert campaign difficulty has also been added for players wanting an additional challenge. Trophy difficulty here is mainly going to focus on two things. First, expert difficulty. If you played through the entire campaigns before, you are likely to have an easier time here knowing all the maps and bosses to get through the campaign. You'll be focusing on earning all the upgrades you can get rather than working toward platinum medals like you had to do in the core game. The second part is you are likely going to have to rely on a trusting boosting partner to earn the online trophies. As the online community is practically non-existent now. See the boosting thread to locate a partner with this DLC for an easier time with those trophies.

Roadmap

Step 1: Playthrough the Autobot and Decepticon campaigns on Expert Difficulty

Your main focus here is replay both campaigns with a new expert mode save. Go through all the main path missions and if necessary any side missions along with getting all possible upgrades to work towards a 75% completion rating. At the end of this step you should unlock the following trophies:

The Autobot Run
Megatron's Master Plan

Step 2: Online Trophies

You will need a boosting partner as the online community is non-existent. All of the online trophies can be boosted in ranked matches with just one partner. As you can use the in-game invite system for a seamless boosting session. Follow the trophy guide for the specific versus matches you will need to setup in your session to unlock the following trophies:

Quest for Survival
The Ultimate Weapon
Prime Target
Jazz Hands
Soundwave Superior
Sideswiped
Everyone has a Weakness
Carnage in C-Minor

Trophy Guide


The Autobot Run
Complete the Autobot campaign on expert with a 75% completion.

You will have to start-up a new Autobot campaign and select the expert difficulty for this trophy. Be advised you might want to backup your current normal campaign save if you still want to keep that progress from getting lost. If you got through the normal difficulty campaign, you likely won't have a problem here as you'll know all the mission objectives and enemy placements. Completion percentage is not only based on completing missions in the campaign but also on several additional factors:

• Unlockables
• Upgrades
• Medals

It is recommended that you focus and acquire all upgrades and obtain all unlockables while going through the campaign to completion, not only to make yourself stronger and the missions easier. That way you don't have to make-up so much in percentage by working toward higher levels of medals, which can be more difficult. The total upgrade cost is the same as in normal difficulty at 2,445,000 energons for all upgrades. With this in mind, you should get close to 75% with a silver medal average across all the main missions. You can also always replay missions for better medals to increase your completion percentage. I would recommend using Iron Hide as much as possible for this campaign run for the best balance of damage and HP regeneration.


Megatron's Master Plan
Complete the Decepticon campaign on expert with a 75% completion.

You will have to start-up a new Deception campaign and select the expert difficulty for this trophy. Be advised you might want to backup your current normal campaign save if you still want to keep that progress from getting lost. If you got through the normal difficulty campaign, you likely won't have a problem here as you'll know all the mission objectives and enemy placements. Completion percentage is not only based on completing missions in campaign but also on several additional factors:

• Unlockables
• Upgrades
• Medals

It is recommended that you focus and acquire all upgrades and obtain all unlockables while going through the campaign to completion, not only to make yourself stronger and the missions easier. That way you don't have to make-up so much in percentage by working toward higher levels of medals, which can be more difficult. The total upgrade cost is the same as in normal difficulty at 2,445,000 energons for all upgrades. With this in mind, you should get close to 75% with a silver medal average across all the main missions. If you still need to improve your percentage, you can always replay missions for better medals. I would recommend using Long Haul as much as possible in this campaign run for the best balance of damage and HP regeneration.


Quest for Survival
Win a match on ANY game mode on each new map

You will need to win an online match in any mode in each of the following new maps included in this DLC:

The fastest method for wins is to play Control Points matches with the setting on one-round, and with a one-minute time limit. You can also work on the multiple versus trophies during your runs for this to save some time. If you need assistance, see the boosting thread to locate a boosting partner with the DLC.

Carnage in C-Minor
Win a match as each new character

This online multiplayer trophy will require you to win using each Autobot and Deception Transformer that is included in the DLC pack. It is possible you can change bots mid-match, but you'll want to start and finish each match with the same character you selected for each one to count towards the trophy.

• G1 Megatron
• G1 Starscream
• G1 Sunstorm
• G1 Sideswipe
• G1 Ratchet
• Stealth Bumblebee
• Soundwave
• Sideswipe
• Jazz
• Jetfire

This trophy will unlock upon winning the match with the last character left on the list.

I know it's an old(ish) guide but just wanted to add a few things.

1) In the Everyone has a weakness description you have the same info given in Sideswiped.

2) For Carnage in C-Minor (at least in mine and gharvs666 case) we won with all characters posted but no trophy. However if you also win as
G1 Colors Sideswipe, Stealth Bumblebee and G1 Colors Rachet it pops.

Other than that, brill guide. Very useful.

Excellent. Funny enough I actually did have those G1s on my list. I'll get those updates in. Glad to hear it was useful and thanks for the confirmation! I ran through these trophies a long time ago. Thanks again!

Anyone know if I can tackle the online portion of this game first? Is anything from the new expert campaign unlocked and required for the online trophies?

You can tackle the online stuff immediately, just like with the core game. Expert mode becomes available from the get-go once you install the DLC and starting it is not required for online.

Thank you kindly. Now, I have to muster up the courage to play the game.

You don't need to win the match for any of the kill "*" with "*" trophies. You just need to get the kill asked for. I jumped into a 20 min TDM, chose G1 Megatron, fired his cannon (killing a G1 Optimus) and the trophy popped within 20 seconds of my joining the match. If boosting, you can easily get all the mentioned trophies in one match. Just ensure every required character is being represented in that game.
