Introduction
This guide for Jump Space Achievements includes the achievement icon, name, and description, as well as how to complete each achievement. They are sorted by type, and presently (as of 9/22/25) there are 12 achievements in 4 categories. Feel free to comment and ask myself or others for guidance.
Story Achievements
Survivor

Complete the Prologue

When booting up Jump Space for the first time, the first option for finding a game should be "Play Prologue." Simply play through the prologue to complete the achievement. If for some reason the achievement did not trigger upon completion, when returning to the menu the third option is "Play Prologue."

Joined the Coalition

Complete Chapter 1
Main goal given by Iris

Progress the main story until you reach the mission "Answer the distress call." Upon completing it the achievement should fire as you will have completed Chapter 1.

Level Achievements
Explorer

Reach level 3

You should be reaching level 3 after the first few missions.

Recruit

Reach level 5

Similarly to level 3, it shouldn't take too long to reach level 5. After a few hours of content you will likely hit level 5.

Soldier

Reach level 7

Level 7 will take a bit longer, I believe personally I hit it around the ~20-25 hour mark. It depends on how much you play, and which missions you play. I found that the quickest way to get levels is to play Distress Call missions. Though it states they take roughly an hour, if you use safe jumps as skips it's closer to ~45 minutes. I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you are looking for a steep grind, as it will take repeating this mission upwards of 10 times consecutively to gain ranks.

Sentinel

Reach level 10

Reaching level 10 should take roughly ~50 hours (I reached it at approx. 50 hours, which includes a bit of idle time). As stated before, if you want to rank up quicker, prioritize high XP but quick time-to-complete missions, like "Distress Call." A Very Hard distress call or cargo raid mission gives you 1400 XP if you do all of the bonus objectives. On distress calls this is just repairing the shields fully each time and on cargo raids it means picking up the 3 bonus cargo.



Suit Achievements
Atiran Citizen

Unlock the full Standard Space Suit set

Standard Space Suit and Standard Space Helmet

These two items are the default for your character.

Explorer Helmet
Bring home 200 credits worth of salvage
Favor asked by Bozze

The easiest way to do this is to pick a longer mission (1-1.5 hours) and save up on items. Anything you bring on the ship (with the exception of mission items like Cargo or Radioactive Fuses) counts towards credits. However, make sure you do not disassemble extra items, or they will not count toward the credits. If you can find a jump with a credit vault in it, it would likely be worth 200 credits alone.

Trader Helmet
Perform 3 "Vault breach" missions in Icarion Reaches
Favor asked by Bozze

Go to Icarion Reaches and pick the lowest difficulty "Vault breach" mission available (should be easy or moderate). You can quickly run past all the enemies and go to the teleporter. You can grab anywhere from 1-3 pieces of cargo (if you have nothing besides the multitool in your inventory you can grab all cargo and get all bonus XP and credits). Then, run back to the start as the mission objective states with or without killing the enemies. If you do it quickly, it should take no more than 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Jump Space Engineer

Unlock the full Engineer Space Suit set

Engineer Space Suit
Earn 10 Materia Ingots by completing missions
Favor asked by Berit

Prioritize corvettes and high-ingot missions to complete this quickly. Or, simply play the game. After 3-4 missions you should have earned enough by mission rewards alone.

Welder Helmet
Disassemble 200 Materia worth of items
Favor asked by Buddy

Though it says "items," Materia canisters count towards this goal. You can target ships and collect their Materia, which can then be disassembled and put toward the goal.

Salvager Helmet
Bring home 3 ingots worth of salvage
Favor asked by Buddy

This can be done in one mission. The "Cargo ship raid" mission on easy yields 3 ingots from mission rewards.

Overseer Helmet
Upgrade 3 components to Mark 3
Favor asked by Berit

This achievement is one of the longest to complete out of all 12. It takes a collective ~70 ingots to get 3 components to Mark 3. It is advisable to upgrade components you actually need rather than the cheapest to upgrade, but it seems that engines are the cheapest by ingots. The quickest way to acquire ingots is to once again run "Distress Call" missions (usually Moderate to Hard difficulty which are doable solo). Your secondary objective should be to target corvettes, which have a guaranteed ingot (component). If each mission gives out 2-3 ingots, and you find 2 corvettes (typical of these types of missions), you have 4-5 ingots per mission. I have gotten anywhere from 4-9 ingots during a mission, especially longer ones like the 1.5 hour "Cargo ship raid."

Reactor Diver

Unlock the full Hazard Space Suit set

Hazard Space Suit
Bring 10 artifacts back to Vosk
Favor asked by Vosk

There are two ways to complete this. The first is to fill your artifact slots fully (all 5) and then complete the mission and return, then repeat once more. However, there is an artifact called the Telmarian Stabilizer that allows you to make jumps without artifacts dissolving. If you install this artifact, you can just hoard the remaining artifacts and complete the mission.

Hazard Helmet
Upgrade 10 artifacts
Favor asked by Vosk

To do this, either fill your artifact collection and upgrade all 5 once, or simply upgrade any combination of artifacts a grand total of 10 times. It helps to get more artifacts quickly if there are artifact vaults available on your way to your main objective.

Flame Helmet
Put out 10 fires
Favor asked by Bozze

This achievement, in combination with the next, will require a few steps to be done, but both can be done without even leaving the first jump. Either of them can be done organically (i.e. just letting a ship take damage and fixing repairs or putting out fires normally), but with this it can be done in less than 5 minutes.

Note: to do this you must be using the C-3 Catamaran ship, which features the drink bar and pizza station. Upon mission start, disassemble the materia canister. Then, go to the scanner and search for the yellow outline of a ship on an asteroid (likely right in front of your ship). Exit the ship and navigate to the crashed ship. You will find a gnome named "Nisse," which is worth 30 Materia. Sadly we must disassemble him for the achievements.

To get the Flame Helmet, go to the pizza station next to the bar where Buddy is. Hold F until the cursor reaches the red part of the cue. The pizza station should start 3 nearby fires, and you'll be able to put them out. You should have 55 materia, which is more than enough to start the 10 fires you need.

Note: Once you complete the achievement, and if you are still in the first jump, you can just press "Return to Hangar" without any penalties and without losing weapons or items in your inventory. Thanks to Eastvy_Witzy for letting me know about this method of starting fires.

Rad Helmet
Put 10 units of radioactive material in the disassembler
Favor asked by Berit

Again, you can complete this achievement by just letting the ship take damage and fixing radioactive leaks on the ship. However, they are extremely uncommon and even in ~10 hours of multiplayer gameplay and ~45 hours of solo gameplay, I have yet to see it appear on either the C-3 or the Dart. This method is much easier and quicker.

Assuming you have restarted a mission, disassembled both the materia canister and Nisse, you're ready to go. Go to the drink bar where Buddy is, and hold F until the cursor reaches the red part of the cue. Radioactive rods will be ejected each time you do this. To get the achievement, simply repeat this process 10 times. You should have 5 Materia to spare by the time you finish, which can be used for the Jump Shi* achievement mentioned later.
Suit Achievements (cont.)
Dangerous Elite

Unlock the full Combat Space Suit set

Combat Space Suit
Disable 3 jamming stations in the Krynn region
Favor asked by Ander

In order to unlock Krynn, be sure to prioritize sectors/areas which still have map fragments. It will tell you how many more you need to unlock it when you look at the area on the map. It has mostly Hard or Very Hard missions. Jammers that you find on the way to the main objective will count toward the goal. Doing a 1 hour mission with 4 jumps between the start and the main objective will likely contain enough sections with jamming stations to complete the goal.

Sniper Helmet
Destroy 20 flying drones by landing a critical hit using the Marksman Rifle
Favor asked by Vey

The hardest part of this achievement is finding a Marksman Rifle in the first place. Look in cubbies and next to buttons on most missions to find one quickly. The critical area for flying drones is almost always the red eye in the center.

Assault Helmet
Kill 30 heavy on-foot enemies
Favor asked by Rikter

Prioritize doing Hard or Very Hard missions, as they have a high spawn rate of heavy on-foot enemies. Some drones which take more than 1 hit tend to count towards the goal, others do not. Occasionally, if Buddy delivers the killing blow to a heavy enemy it will not count towards the goal. F**k off buddy.

Specialist Helmet
Destroy 10 ships using hand held Rocket Launcher or Rail Gun
Favor asked by Rikter

The Rocket Launcher is currently a 1 hit, no aim kill on all ships excluding the corvette. After developing a surplus of Materia (160) you will have enough for 4 rocket launchers, which will be needed since each has 3 shots and cannot be refilled by on-foot ammo. Approach a group of ships and exit onto the deck of the ship, and when in range (seems to be ~0.8km) lock on and fire. The rockets travel to the target and kill in 1 shot, again excluding the corvette.
Misc. Achievements
The Only Way

Dispose of a radioactive rod by flushing it down the toilet

As a continuation of the Rad Helmet mission, either use your last 5 Materia from completing that mission, or just 5 Materia in general. Go to the drink bar and hold down F until the cursor reaches the red part of the cue. The drink machine will spit out a radioactive rod, which you can then take and run behind you to flush down the toilet.

Jump Shi*

Survive a Jump by sitting on the toilet

This is the only achievement out of the 12 that requires another player to be completed. You must also be using the C-3 Catamaran ship. One player must pilot and another must find the toilet, located ahead of the bar on the right hand side of the ship (when facing the front). Simply sit on the toilet and go through a jump, and the achievement will fire.

@nenwhe
Ahhhhh, i havent had any galaxy-map missions in a while. Time to focus on those whenever I see them again.
Thank you for the info :)

@Wilmaster1 Negative. After upgrading 3 components to level 3 you'll need to unlock more of the map to get more favors. I had to unlock the rest of the map before I started getting new missions because Ander asks you to disable jammers in the furthest available sector. The only solo favors that you really need the catamaran for are the ones where you need radioactive rods or to start fires. Besides that, I was always using the Dart too.
Wilmaster1 6.10. klo 12.57 
Is it correct that most of the suit missions are only possible with the catamaran?
I am already level 7, but have been playing solo using the dart most of the time, and I havent received any requests by the crew after upgrading 3 components to level 3

@_[BFG]_ Пожалуйста!!!
_[BFG]_ 4.10. klo 5.25 
Спасибо за гайд !!!
Eastvy_Witzy 3.10. klo 19.41 
@nenwhe Burning pizza causes three nearby fires, so you can resolve it by consuming just 20 materia.
This idea came from someone who posted on the bulletin board saying, “I saw a fire after burning pizza.”
I'm glad this serves as a simple guide for this achievement.
nenwhe  [tekijä] 3.10. klo 7.26 
@Eastvy_Witzy thanks for that! I'll add that one to the guide and credit you. Makes things a whole lot easier for solo players.
Eastvy_Witzy 2.10. klo 7.06 
Consume five Materia to make a pizza, then hold down until the gauge turns red to burn it, creating three fires. This method allows you to complete the quest more quickly.

really thanks for the tutorial for the hazmat suit very thanks you :steamthis:
Dragon 28.9. klo 19.57 
@Towzer dont know if i understand you correct so i just say what i think is correct. you need to sit on the toilet while someone else makes the jump so you need a second person for that.
