Notes
Except for Pinnacle achievement, all achievements can be got playing in the Training tab, playing against bots and it's a effective way to grind. Achievements' progress can be tracked under the Awards tab on your profile screen.
Well Trained
This should be your very first achievement in the game. Whilst at the main menu, press play. You'll then see 4 tabs options: Quick Play, Ranked, Training and Custom. Go to Training, then Tutorial. During the tutorial you shall be learning the basic game mechanics and playing as Viktor. Upon completion of said tutorial this achievement will unlock.

Well Trained
Complete the Paladins Tutorial.
Untouched
This pertains to the points scored for completing objectives, not enemy kills, and can only be obtained in the Siege game mode. A Siege match is won when the one team scores four points. Points are scored for capturing the objective and delivering the payload; however, a point can also be scored if the defending team can stop you from delivering the payload. With that in mind, your team will need to both capture the objective and deliver the payload two rounds in a row. Do just that and the achievement will unlock at the end of the match.

Untouched
Win a match where the enemy team scored no points.
Counter-Air Defense
To obtain this achievement you will need to be playing against an enemy team than contains either Drogoz, who has the ability to fly using Thrust, or Androxus, who can take to the air using his Accursed Arm ability. I suggest using a high DPS character to give you a better chance of landing the killing blow before they start to fall back down to the ground. Just watch for them to take flight and unload on them when they are as high as they can get to ensure they are above 100 units. If you land the killing blow while they are high enough, the achievement will unlock.

Counter-Air Defense
Kill a player in the air who is over 100 units above the ground.
Not Like This
This achievement should come naturally whilst playing throughout the game. It's really tricky to be able to get a kill whilst at 50 health as that stacks up to about 2-3% of an average character health. With most characters that means certain death.

The best way to earn this is with Skye. Run into the flank or an objective point with Skye whilst actively shooting the champions on the point. Whilst low on health drop your smoke bomb, this will turn you invisible, hopefully you'll be at critical health and be able to kill the champion. It is very situational but will happen a lot more than you realise.

You could also use Tyra or Viktor with the grenade abilities. Fire into a point whilst standing out into the open. When you reach a moderately low amount of HP throw your fire bomb ability (Tyra) or Viktor's standard grenade and hopefully earn a kill.

You'll also earn this if you get From the Grave achievement , because 0 health is less than 50!

Not Like This
Kill an enemy player while you are at or below 50 Health.
I Like Big Numbers
For this achievement, you will want to use a Champion with either high DPS like Ruckus (a Frontline class but still great for this) or Viktor, or Champions with high damaging abilities like Kinessa or Sha Lin. Stay on the outside of team fights, try to stay alive as much as possible, and don't be afraid to let the opposing team capture the objective for a round. The longer the game, the greater of a chance you have to unlock the achievement. Remember this is about overall damage, so if chasing a kill is likely to get you killed then back off and just keep attacking from a distance. Depending on where the fighting is occurring on the map, dying could lose you up to thirty seconds of time.

I Like Big Numbers
Deal more than 100,000 damage during a match.
Hard Carry
This is not as hard as it sounds. Pick a high DPS class like Damage or Flanker and just go all out; focus on mopping up kills from a distance and don't be afraid to let the other team capture the objective while you just focus on racking up the kills. You have to deliver the killing blow for it to count towards this. Anytime you see the message "Slayed [X]" on the screen, it will count to your total for the match.

Hard Carry
Kill more than 20 enemy champions in a single match.
Give 110 Percent
At the end of every round, except the final round, the screen will turn grey and the game will slow down. During this time you can continue attacking. Try to aim for an enemy on low health; if you can land a killing blow before the start of the next round, the achievement will unlock.

Give 110 Percent
Get a killing blow after the round has ended.
From The Grave
To unlock this achievement, you are going to want to use a Champion who has an ability with delayed damage, such as grenades or bombs. Here is a list of the Champions I would recommend to obtain this achievement, along with a suggested method.

  • Viktor - Grenade: Probably the method most akin to traditional from the grave kills: get into a firefight, do some damage with your primary, launch your grenade, let the enemy finish you off, and hope they get caught in the blast.

  • Bomb King - Grumpy Bomb: The Grumpy Bomb is the only bomb that will explode without you have to manually detonating it using the Detonate ability. As you get into firefights, launch your Grumpy Bomb into the crowd before you die and hopefully it can take out the player who killed you. This method is a little trickier than Viktor's Grenade as the Grumpy Bomb is really obvious and it takes three seconds to go off.

  • Skye - Time Bomb (Ultimate): Skye's ultimate ability, Time Bomb, allows her to plant a bomb that will do massive damage when it explodes. It even has the ability to 1-shot some of the lower HP Champions from the Damage class. Use the Hidden ability to make your way into the center of group of enemies. A good time for this is when they are escorting the payload, so activate Time Bomb, let them kill you, and hope your killer is caught in the explosion.

  • Barik - Turret: Barik has the ability to drop two Turrets that will automatically attack any enemies in their line of site. Try to lure a single enemy into a one on one fight around your planted turrets, do some damage using your primary, let them kill you, and hope your turrets can finish the job for you.

  • Sha Lin - Long Bow: Sha Lin is probably the most unorthodox pick in this list. Long Bow is his primary ability, but the time it takes for the arrow to hit your target from when you make the actual shot can work in your favor. Try to get into a firefight with a Champion who can kill you from range, like Viktor, Kinessa or Sha Lin. Now fully charge your shots and let them fly. If you die before your arrow hits and kills the enemy you will unlock the achievement.

  • Skye - Poison Bolts: It will deal 10% of the target's maximum health per arrow over five seconds. This can also be used to obtain this achievement but her ultimate has a better chance.

From The Grave
Kill an enemy champion after they had already killed you.

Boom Headshot
It's easier to get this achievement using a weapon with rapid fire rather than go for precision headshots with someone like Kinessa or Sha Lin. I highly recommend either Viktor or Ruckus for this; Viktor's Assault Rifle has a high rate of fire and he has the advantage of being able to use Iron Sights for a little more accuracy. On the other hand, Ruckus' Miniguns have an incredibly high rate of fire, with a shot going off every .04 seconds, which allows you to just aim at an enemies head and let the bullet fly.

Boom Headshot
Land 5 headshots in a row without missing.
Send Off
To kill a player using an environmental hazard you need to knock them off the edge of the map using an ability that has a knockback component. Look for enemies flanking on the outside edges of the maps and try to hit them with a knockback to take them off the edge. Here is a list of champions that can apply a knockback along with the required ability.
  • Cassie - Disengage
  • Sha Lin - Impaler Arrow
  • Makoa - Shell Spin
  • Bomb King - Poppy Bomb
The absolute best map to go for this on is Fish Market; the whole right/left side of Fish Market is an open dock area, which means you can knock an enemy off any point of this side of the map to score an environmental kill. Once the payload is in play, it travels right down that edge of the map.

Send Off
Kill a player with an environmental hazard.
Gone Spelunking
All you need to do is jump off the edge of the map without an enemy having hit you first. If you have taken any damage from another source, the achievement may not unlock. Just head for the closest edge of the map as soon as you spawn and jump off.

Gone Spelunking
Die to an environmental hazard.
Questions Later
The preferred methods for this is to use a champion that can damage enemies from range, like Kinessa, Sha Lin, Cassie. Stay back and pick off each enemy with one shot as you spot them. Just take one shot and move positions, try not to draw enemy fire or allow yourself to get into any kind of firefight. Try to be patient and you should be able to unlock this achievement after a few tries.

Questions Later
Deal damage to every enemy champion in a match before any of them damage you.
Unstoppable
This only requires a 20 elimination streak, not a 20 kill streak. So, you need 20 kills and assists for this achievement. As for how to get that, I would recommend any character that you are good with, but flanks are likely the easiest way to get this.

Unstoppable
Reach a 20 kill streak in a match
This is My Style
To create a custom loadout, go to the Champions tab, select the champion you'd like to create the loadout for, scroll over to the Loadouts tab, and then hit Create New Loadout.

Loadouts are created and customized using cards. You select the five cards you wish to use, then you can adjust the potency of each card with the + and - sliders. Altogether, a loadout can't be any more than 12 points. So you'll have five points automatically from the cards you chose, then you have seven points you can distribute however you like. The descriptions on the cards will adjust as you move the sliders, so you can see the different effects each one is giving you. It won't let you approve the loadout if you don't have five cards or you have less than 12 points.

Once you're done, hit Save and Exit and it will pop.

This is My Style
Build your own custom loadout
Master Collector
The achievement now works like this: you need to unlock 60 talents. Talents are a unique ability for your champion that are chosen before the start of the game, which were previously craftable cards. Talents can be very useful especially when tailored to your personal playstyle. Each character has 3 of them.

Unlocking talents happens as follows:

All characters have 1 unlocked by default. Upon reaching level 2, another is unlocked. Then reaching level 8 will unlock the last one, however to use all 3 you will need to be at level 8 or higher. The default unlocked talent doesn't count towards the achievement.

This means you will now have to get 30 characters to at least level 8 or alternatively get 15 characters to level 8 and the remaining 30 to at least level 2, which is a huge grind. Especially if you haven't unlocked all the characters from buying the unlock pass, You must grind for gold in matches to buy and use locked characters. This is also on top of levelling each character adding to the grind.

Master Collector
Unlock 100 Cards.
Survivor
Whilst the trophy states to survive 'battles', this can be achieved by dealing damage to yourself sitting just outside spawn and letting your health regenerate. The fastest method if you have Drogoz or Pip is just sit outside your spawn and aim directly at the floor until you get yourself under 10% health. Once under 10% health stop firing at the floor and let yourself revive health. Simply rinse and repeat until you receive the achievement.

Survivor
Survive more than 50 battles with less than 10% health.
Witness to History
The description is fairly self explanatory, you must have a Paladins account that get over 1 year old.

Witness to History
Have a Paladins account over 1 year old
A New Challenger
To unlock ranked, you must be at least account level 15 and own at least 12 champions. When you meet these requirements, the achievement will come.

A New Challenger
Unlock Ranked
Big Spender
Credit is the form of currency that is earned in-match and does not carry over between matches. So spend them or lose them!

You can use Credits to purchase in-game cards that offer temporary boosts to a variety of categories (defense, attack, etc.). You can turn on Auto-Purchase so that you don't have to think about it or turn off to buy by yourself.

Big Spender
Spend over 100,000 Credits in the item store over all your matches
Sniper
It's hard to gauge just how far 300 units is, but to give yourself the best chance, there are specific champions abilities that can do the trick like Torvald's, Evie's and Jenos' ultimates. Sniper rifles are a good try too if you get a good position.

Sniper
Kill an enemy player from over 300 units away.
Citizen of the Realm
Despite the login bonus being removed, this achievement is unlocking even before the 7 days.

Citizen of the Realm
Get a daily reward 7 days in a row
Bullet Sponge
There is the free champion named Ruckus with his Emitter that can shield yourself for up to 2000 damage for a brief time and if you build a deck to improve this ability, you will increase your protection. There are plenty of other characters that protect and you can do this with. Most front lines have shielding abilities like Makoa, Ash, Fernando, Barik and Torvald.

When the game starts, run directly to the objective and get your shield to protect you and your allies, rotating your direction if need be. Keep at this for the entirety of the game, mainly staying on the objective and attempting to block enemy shots and abilities. You might go 0-15, but this is about shielding, not getting a nice KDA.

Bullet Sponge
Shield over 100,000 damage in a match
Surgeon General
One of the champions unlocked by default, Seris, is great to do this achievement. Build a deck putting all your points into her heal ability and get the Mortal Reach talent. Then sit at the back line and heal away. If an enemy comes for you, use her escape ability to get away. Try not to engage. The less conflict you're in, the more likely you remain alive. Which means more time capable of healing. Obviously some luck is involved. The longer the game, the more likely you will get this.

Surgeon General
Heal over 100,000 health in a match
Bounty Hunter
This trophy can be made simple by letting a single bot kill you and your team in the bot training mode. Once a single bot has a 15 killstreak, proceed to kill them. Boosting this with 5 others will be the best way to unlock it via the method above.

This achievement is more than likely going to be one of your last achievement, if not the very last one you need. Getting an enemy player to have a 15 kill streak requires you to purposely feed the enemy champions kills. As getting a 15 kill 'slay' streak is very rare.

What makes this trophy even harder is there is no on-screen prompt for the enemy killstreak and you have to rely on the in-game sound cues. There is another issue though, because sometimes the in-game sound cues won't trigger unless you are near a champion. This in turn means you have to either take a chance on killing an enemy streaking or hope that you are close enough for the game to trigger the cue. Alternatively, this can be boosted with a group of 10 people, searching for each other via public lobbies in 2 groups of 5.

A good tactic that will be easier to setup is to play as a group of 5. Create a party and queue for a siege match. Once into a game capture the first objective as quickly as possible. Once the payload has been captured chose an enemy champion to feed kills to.

Champions that are not a viable idea to feed to are tank characters like Torvald and Fernando. This is because they will kill you before you kill them making the achievement even more difficult. After allowing the enemy champion to get streaks you'll start hearing the announcer call out streaks.

The cues are:
  • Killing Spree - 3 slays
  • Ramage - 5 slays
  • Unstoppable - 7 slays
  • Savage - 9 slays
  • Immortal - 11 slays
  • Godlike - 13 slays
  • Annihilating- 15 slays

Once you hear the cue or think they have reached the level of slays required you all hunt down that hero. Once the hero has fallen the achievement will pop for the player who then played that hero. Rinse and repeat as required.

Bring up the scoreboard in-game using the TAB key, it will also show you the hero's killstreak, indicated by the fire symbol and number within it. It doesn't signify slay streaks but it does give you a general idea if the sound cues have not triggered.

Bounty Hunter
Kill an enemy player who is on a 15 killstreak or higher.
Beta Player
The Paladins closed beta started on 17/11/2015 and launched out of beta on 8/5/2018. If you started playing after the beta, this achievement is unobtainable.

Beta Player
Reach level 30 during the Paladins Beta.
Battle Thirsty
When you finish your 300th match, this achievement will pop up.

Battle Thirsty
Play over 300 matches
Last One Standing
This is the most luck-based and situational achievement in the game mainly because each player has in independent respawn timer. This means that when anyone on your team or the opposing team dies, they will be on a twelve second timer to respawn. To unlock this achievement, you need to get into a team fight with the enemy team, hope they kill all four of your teammates while your team takes out as many as they can at the same time, and then you will have to mop up any remaining enemies and all the deaths will have to be within 10-12 seconds of each other. Alternatively, if you find yourself in a nice group or playing with friends, you can try to eliminate the other team together then quickly have the rest of your team jump off the edge of the map killing themselves.

This achievement can also be boosted with other players if they combine to kill themselves after kill the enemies or if you get more, with the two teams helping each other.

Last One Standing
Be the only player alive in a match.
Pinnacle
Ranked is a system in Paladins designed to provide higher quality matches for competitive players. There are seasons that are divided into splits. Each split has a duration between 3 and 4 months. Each tier, from Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum to Diamond, is divided in 5 divisions. Earning 100 TP will cause the player to be promoted. After the last diamond's divison, there is the ranking we are fighting for this achievement, the Master. When you play ranked for the first time, you will be placed according to your percentage of victories. After that, good grind for you!

Pinnacle
Reach Master in Ranked

Mastery 5
Reach mastery 5 with 10 champions. Mastery is another way to describe a champion's level. This is separate to the actual profile level. To get a hero's mastery level up and progressing, you must be actively using them during matches. The amount of XP received varies between each match and how well you perform.

To earn the most xp for the champion playing them in their role position is crucial. As an example, you choose the flanking champion, Skye. To earn the most experience you must be flanking to the enemy spawn and getting kills from behind, using her per the class descriptions. A full list of classes and their heroes is described bellow. Each bot match will net you around 30,000 XP.

  • Damage dealers: As the position states these champions are the main source of damage for any team. Some are made for straight up attack whereas others are made for sitting back and dealing damage from a short range that is both safe and less harmful to the health bar.

  • Frontline: These are the tank like heroes. Capable of taking a lot of damage and average amounts back. They are as per the title always found at the front line, holding down objectives and stopping the enemy team from progressing easily or as quick as they otherwise would due to their sheer amount of health and shield points.

  • Support: Support hero's are a crossover class. They are best played on the front line, just behind the tank champions. Supports play a major role in objective capturing and team survival. If played correctly they can be just as powerful as DPS (damage per second) heroes.

  • Flank: Flank champions are the stealth heroes. Flanking is a technique where you travel around the main point of attack and into the enemies territory. Flankers normally have a stealth ability & a quick escape ability. The only downside to this class is the health points of the heroes are fairly low and can die extremely quickly if surrounded. It's best to use this class once you've learned the maps efficient enough to get in and out quickly.

The achievements should pop upon completion of the match your champion has levelled up to Mastery 5.

Champion Mastery I
1 Champion at Mastery 5.

Champion Mastery II
2 Champions at Mastery 5.

Champion Mastery III
3 Champions at Mastery 5.

I don't know, but you can check if the progress is raising in the achievements tab inside the game.
Aviator Fae 23 Aug, 2021 @ 7:06pm 
Can you do the 250 hours played on bot matches? and the same with 100 matches with a party?
Wolveruno  [author] 24 Jun, 2021 @ 12:50pm 
I'm giving up on this one too. In casual, I destroy, but when it's time for ranked, the silvers are better than casual players. The Paladin's matchmaking is very broken.

My final achievement is just to get to masters but I don't think I'll ever get there lmao
