Roadmap

Step 1 – Playthrough One – Honourable Way
During Playthrough one you will be getting yourself used to the combat mechanics of the game and will be aiming to get most of the available trophies.

This game does not have an autosave feature, so you will have to remember to save often, especially as the game has been known to glitch slightly and cause NPC characters to disappear. The only fix I have found for this is to reload a previous save file.

This playthrough will be played the honourable way, so make sure that whenever you talk to either Death or Benedict, your choice of answer should always lean toward peace and love etc… Also try not to solve any mission by fighting. Sometimes this is not possible, but if given a choice always choose the honourable outcome. You will also want to let Death kill the final boss.

There are six trophies in this game that relate to joining and completing quests for a certain guild (two for each guild). As there are three guilds and two different endings you will be playing this game a total of 2 and a half times (I will explain the half later). For this playthrough when given the option of which guild to join, I suggest you join the ‘Order of the Holy Seal’.

Also during this playthrough I suggest you aim to get the No Drugs trophy, which is awarded for completing the game without using healing items. This is not as hard as it sounds. Check the trophy description for more details.

You will also want to aim to complete any optional quests during this playthrough so that you can unlock Quest Master; see the trophy description for additional information.

Apart from the above, just play through the game normally taking care to note the missable trophies.

Step 2 – Playthrough Two – Villainous Way
Start a new game and again select easy as your difficulty.

This playthrough you will be concentrating on completing the game the Villainous way. Therefore whenever you talk to either Death or Benedict always choose the option which discusses vengeance/revenge. Also whenever you complete quests/talk to NPCs, always choose the threaten/fight option rather than the more friendly version. You will also want to kill the final boss at the end of the game yourself.

When you get to the quest where you have to choose a guild to join, you need to do two things. Firstly make a save, which you will use as part of step 3; so do not over write this save. Secondly you need to choose a guild. I suggest you join ‘Net of the Mask’.

You should have all the missable trophies/gameplay trophies from your first playthrough, but if you are missing any I suggest you get them during this playthrough as step 3 will only be a part playthrough.

If you just worry about the main story quests during this playthrough, you should be able to complete this step within 10 hours.

Step 3 – Playthrough Three - ½ a playthrough.
Remember the save file you created during step 2? Reload this…
Now when you select your guild, join ‘Hooded Wings’.
Just complete all quests for the Hooded Wings and when you complete the final quest for them the final trophy and the platinum will unlock.

[PS3T would like to thank paultsmith1980 for this Road Map]



Master of Venetica
Earn all Venetica trophies to unlock the platinum trophy 

As always, just unlock all other trophies to unlock the platinum.

The End
Game completed 

STORY RELATED UNMISSABLE
Once you face and defeat the final boss at the end of the game this trophy will unlock.

Victor is quite easy in his human form as all you have to do is remove the curse from the Doge and then attack him. Repeat this three times to then face Victor in demon form. All you have to do is roll with to avoid the energy balls and then attack when you get close enough. Repeat this until you defeat him and he returns to human form. Again just roll away from his attacks and then attack when you see the opportunity.

No Drugs
Game finished without consuming any healing items 

MISSABLE TROPHY
This sounds a lot harder than it actually is especially if you are playing on easy difficulty.

You can still heal yourself by sleeping or visiting a doctor, just do not use any healing items at all. I found it safer to just sell any I collected as soon as I could, just to avoid any risks. If you accidentally use a healing item, reload a previous save file and carry on from there.

First Chapter Complete
Chapter 1 completed 

STORY RELATED UNMISSABLE
This trophy will unlock after you defeat the first boss of the game ‘The Mistress’.

Firstly she will be jumping around on platforms above you. Just run around the arena and destroy all five wooden supports with your hammer, until the platforms fall and the mistress falls down to the floor. Now is the time to attack her. Just hit away at her with , using whichever weapon you are comfortable with. Once she is defeated you will then face her demon form. This again is a very easy fight. Just avoid getting hit by the tentacles and when one of them rolls inwards, just attack it until it is destroyed. Do this five times for all tentacles and then attack the head.

Second Chapter Complete
Chapter 2 completed 

STORY RELATED UNMISSABLE
This trophy will unlock after you defeat the second boss of the game, ‘Hector’.

Hector cannot be defeated using weapons, instead you need to use the environment to destroy his human form. Firstly run to the back of the room to destroy his Urn and then stand near one of the columns in the middle of the room and wait until he attacks you. Roll out of the way using and he should destroy the column. Do this to both columns and you should defeat his human form. His demon form can be attacked by weapons. Just attack his right leg until he drops and then attack his back. He will eventually fall onto his belly. This is the point where you attack his head. It should only take a few attacks on his head to kill him.

Third Chapter Complete
Chapter 3 completed 

STORY RELATED UNMISSABLE
This trophy will unlock after you defeat the third boss of the game, ‘The Princess’.

The human form of ‘The Princess’ is very easy to defeat. Just avoid the skeletons and attack the totems that she summons. After you have destroyed four of these her human form will be defeated and then you will face her demon form. ‘The Princess’’ demon form is a large bird which fires laser beams at you. Just roll using to avoid these beams, until she drops on the floor where you can attack her beak. Once you do this she will drop a shield and spear, which you need to equip to use to reflect the laser beams back at her. Hit her four times with rebound laser beams and she is defeated.

Legendary Hero
Level 32 reached 

As you kill enemies and complete quests you get experience points which allow you to level up. Just reach level 32 to unlock this trophy and the one for reaching level 20 True Hero

You may reach the end of the game without reaching this level. If you do, head to Africa and speak to Gero to enter the tournament. Equip the Harvester Weapon, which you find whilst digging for treasure in Africa, and keep killing the enemies in the tournament and you will reach Level 32 in no time.

To complete the training you have to avoid Brawler’s hits and counter attack five times using the button. If he hits you twice the training is over and you have not passed. If this happens walk away and then return to speak to him again. The option to train will reappear.

After you leave your village on the road to Venice, you are attacked and forced to enter the Windmill Tavern. After you defeat the enemies inside the tavern and then free the prisoners held hostage in the store room, speak to Yngvar (the soldier in armour) and ask him to teach you combined attacks.

Leather Style

This will come naturally during the game as a few enemies carry Leather Mail (Unfitting) which you can get when you loot their bodies after you defeat them.

Once you have this go to a Blacksmith, either Mattheo in San Pasquale or the blacksmith in the Venice and have them customize the armour to your size. This will cost you 500 Ducats, but once paid your defence will increase and the trophy will unlock.

Just crack ever lock you come across; doors, chests etc, and once you have gained 1200 experience, which will be sometime during act 3, you will unlock this trophy.

High Esteem
Earn 2000 reputation points 

MISSABLE TROPHY
When you play through the game you will gain reputation points whenever you complete certain quests, so as long as you are completing all the side quests you should get this by the end of the game. I have created a quest list which shows the quests which give reputation points. This can be found HERE

The reason this trophy is missable is because the game does not give you reputation points if you find the quested item before you receive the quest… For example. If you kill the Gripper Queen before getting the quest. This is a problem as there only seems to be a small margin of error with regards to reputation in this game.

Bright Views
