Hello!
(Image courtesy of Ludosity and Paradox Interactive.)

I suck at descriptions and spelling. (Well I am a good speller it is just I am typing fast and don't care much.... I will fix spelling issues after I am done with the basics.)

I am here to tell you how to get some of the achievements and secrets for this game!

I know this won't be the best achievement guide anymore now that Trapfly is making a guide...

SPOILERS EVERYWHERE! I did NOT hide the spoilers!!!
Critical Existence Failure/Atomic Backstab
To get this achievement

Be on hard mode.

Have the "Testosterone Robe" on.

Once you have these things checked go into any level.

Have you health at low levels.

Douse yourself with water.

Self cast cold to become frozen.

Now self cast Rock + Rock + Rock + Rock while you are still frozen and you should EXPLODE!
(If you did not explode try using different staffs.)

Atomic backstab is the same except 1 person gets frozen while the other player shoots a charged powerful rock spell in "Testosterone Robes".
"Whoops"
Simple.
Kill someone in multi-player.

If you don't have friends that play this game use the "Quick play" option in the multi-player screen.
"Supernova"
Lightning + Life + Shield + Fire!
Interactive Paradox
This is a RANDOM achievement however it shows up most often when:

You are in normal mode.

In certain levels.


That's all I can tell you... this achievement is annoying!
Black comedy gold
Simple. Cast oil rain (Which you get for beating the final boss.) when you are fighting Seagals.
The easiest place to find Seagals is the Goblin Beach-Party area in the first stage.
Paranoid
Self cast a Water + Life + Rock shield.
Badbutt
Go to the first level on normal mode.

Kill everything WITHOUT using Life and not dying.

Some good spells to use....

Lightning (x2) + Fire (x2)

Rock + Rock + Rock + Rock

Spamming Fire + Rock a few hundred times.
Badass
This is very simple to get.


Go to the first level on normal mode.

Kill EVERYTHING with a spell containing Life + Lightning (x3) and you should be able to beat the level.


Update: eGO says that another simple method of getting this achievement is holding every enemy in the air and using lightning on them.
Whack-a-shark
Simple. All you need to do is freeze a Land Shark (To slow it down.) and cast thunderbolt when there are no other enemies.
Knock your block off
Sudden Demise/Spectacular Demise/Legendary Demise
Simple.

You will most likely get the first achievement by playing through the game on hard.

I got the others by fighting the last boss on hard mode.

The last boss uses a arm attack where you get crushed to DEATH!

That attack does 9999 damage. (Make sure you are not using anything that makes damage less effective!)

(Sorry)
Finding "Grampa The Grey".
I can't show you this because I have to keep a secret. Sorry! :(

I will give you a hint though! Look on the floor for hints.

PS: If someone else finds out how to find Grampa and shows how to find him to everyone I will update the guide and post the information on finding him.

UPDATE: I don't have to keep a secret anymore!

To find Grampa....

Go to the first level of the final world.

Look on the floor for this...

http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=194208227

Now go step on the arrow and go backwards to the start of the level.

Now move around for a few seconds.

If you did that you should see this text box...

http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=194208241

Now beat the level and you will unlock the area where you can fight Grampa!

Fighting "Grampa The Grey" in Single-player
If you did not find Grampa don't read this.

The best method to defeat Grampa is to...

Use a keyboard... this fight is so fast paced that you need one to survive and cast spells without dying. (If you are not using one use one!)

Wear the "Contaminated Robe".

Use the "Barrier Staff".

Self cast Lightning + Fire shields. (Make sure the shields do not run out!)

Attack him with Life + Lightning (x3) or Life + Fire (x3)

Self cast Life at RAPID speeds! (This is important! You WILL die many times if you don't!)

With this method I beat him WITHOUT dying on HARD MODE with no familiars.

Here is a screenshot...

http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=193168183

You may have noticed the reward for beating him in the picture... the reward is awesome!

(Note: In Multi-player you would fight him like any other boss.)
That's all for now!
I will post more information soon!


(Note: PLEASE don't rate the guide until it is finished!)

(Note2: Constructive criticism is allowed.)

(Note3: If you want a walkthrough go to the guide made by Trapfly.)

UPDATE: I am still messing with my new computer so it might take a day or two to start on the guide again.

I know it's an old guide, but here is how i got the Party Trick achievement:
Hard mode (First Level)
Testosterone Robe + Basic Staff
Kill the first wave
Selfcast Rock+Rock+Rock+Rock
Selfcast Water
Selfcast Ice+Ice+Ice+Ice
Selfcast Rock+Rock+Rock+Fire
And the achievement will hopefully pop up :)

Great guide! Adding to favorites. :D:

For some reason, I can't get the achievement "Party Trick". I've used blade staves, deliberately zapped myself on low health with no barrier in "Goddess's Indignation", and gotten squashed by Helsdottir innumerable times. Is there a certain way to die that lets you do this? Or is it just luck from a particularly strong hit?

i defeated him on normal mode with out familiars and i won Arcane and Bearded Robe! Thank You So Much!
Laid  [author] 16 Nov, 2013 @ 6:33pm 
It is either a glitch, or the devs don't want you using familiars. Post this problem on the forums!

i defeated grampa, but i don't have Arcane ( I defeated him in hard mode with a familiar ) :redwizard:

Oh. Well, I'm going to give up for a few hours or so.
