Introduction
This guide is a walkthrough to get all the achievements in Divinity: Original Sin Enchanced Edition with minimal spoilers. Read it as you play and don't jump too far ahead or some plot character names will be revealed.

Divinity: Original Sin Enchanced Edition has 54 achievements. The achievements are not the same as in Divinity: Original Sin even though few overlap. Two of the achievements are difficulty based. If you want 100% achievements I suggest you start with Tactician Mode and when you know the game and the difficult encounters by heart you can tackle the much much harder Honour Mode. There are plenty of guides for both difficulty levels.

  • Tactician Mode
    Start and finish the game in Tactician Mode. Tactician Mode adds new enemies, gives enemies extra items, spells and skills and occasionally increases the amount of enemies per encounter. To see the difference try the first fight in Classic Mode & Tactician Mode.

  • Honour Mode
    Honour Mode is the same as Tactician Mode but you have only one save file and if both of your main characters die you have to begin from the start. Honour Mode = Ironman mode. See the end of the guide for more.

There's only few things you need to keep in mind. One is to grab Pet Pal talent on one of your main characters so you can talk to animals. Also there are binary traits in the game so you need to be sure you are Forgiving instead of Vindictive and Independent instead of Obedient. These all are requirements for certain achievements.

There are two achievements linked to skills. You will likely get the full skill tree achievement naturally late in Part II or in Part III. Try to remember to save 1 unspent talent point when you are very late game (you get one @ lvl 19) and don't pick up Glass Cannon talent.

  • You've got that something special
    After you max one of your skill trees to 5 (This will cost you 15 skill points total) you need to buy 6 novice skills, 4 adept skill and 2 master skills. Once you have done that the achievement will pop.

  • Wolfpack
    Be sure you have 1 unspent talent point at the end of the game on one character after beating the final boss. After you have beat him with your party of 4 just use the talent point on Lone Wolf one and the achievement will pop once you finish the prologue. You only need to have it on one character. I used the talent point when I had killed the last boss and was given the congratulations praise. If you forgot to save 1 talent point you can respec your characters in End of Time for a small price. Doing that will unfortunately lose your acquired skills so you need to get them back again so it's better to just save the 1 talent point that you got from level 19 level up.
Companions
There are 4 companion achievements in Divinity: Original Sin Enchanced Edition. They all are simple quests though Madora's is quite tricky one so read that one carefully. You can grab all the companions after you get in Cyseal. You can switch between the companions easily once you have picked two Star Stones (Both can be acquired in Cyseal) and the quicktravel skill. I highly recommend you pick Madora as soon as possible in King Crab Inn because she has two missable dialogues early in the game.

  • Sister of Mercy (Madora)
    People say this is a tricky one but I found it easy. You need to have Forgiving trait on both of your main characters. Basicly you need to keep Madora in your party all the time and when she has something to say you need to confront her to be more open minded. That's it. Always try to make her see that giving someone a second chance is a good thing. These talks come occasionally after bosses, big events or quests during Parts I and II. I think you need to 'complete' at least five of these confrontations before you talk to certain orc in Hunter's Edge during Part III. You'll notice that you have enough successes when Madora starts to second guess her initial reactions and commenting on those.

    Just in case you are unsure you can also consult these guides: _biggoodeeny's guide and Daelus1's guide[www.trueachievements.com]


  • That Voice Again (Wolgraff)
    You need to follow the A Voice in the Wilderness Quest. I guess you can skip talking to the four or five mute animals but it's nice to update the quest from the beginning so during Part I you need to talk to the mute rabbit just before the area transfer to Luculla Forest (Part II). Mid way during Part II you need to talk to a sad deer North of Goblin village portal. During Part III in Hunter's Edge talk to a downcast dog. Lastly you'll find a boar near Thorny Roots waypoint in Phantom Forest. There's also a pathway down close by. Talk to the boar and go kill Imal the Squealer at the end of the path. Pick up Voxwood. You might've noticed The Temple of the Dead map marker already. Get in (Hint: use the pyramid teleporter ) and pick up Bottled Voice in the Alchemist's Lab. Combine Bottled Voice and Voxwood and give the elixir to Wolgraff and the achievement is yours.



  • Father Lucifer (Bairdotr)
    During Part II. You must have Independent trait on both of your characters. After completing the Immaculate trials go to Sacred Stone. Once there go inside the cave behind a waterfall and talk to the man inside with Bairdotr in your party.



  • The Deal (Jahan)
    This quest is called The King's Dark Deal. It starts when you start clearing the Source Temple North West in Luculla Forest. You need to have Jahan in your party. You can start it also in Part III when you speak to Greal in Phantom Forest after Hunter's Edge as part of main quest chain. You will find Demon Balberith in a hut North East of Phantom Forest and after you deal with him the achievement will pop
Part I - Inner Cyseal
After the first fight you will soon see two drunken guards. Don't talk to them yet but instead do a little detour along the beach.
  • Shell shock
    You will meet a talking shell called Ishmashell. Do what you want with it and the achievement will pop.


  • Caught in the Game (missable)
    When you see the two drunken guards guarding the small bridge save your game. Go talk to one of them with your other character and use your other character to attempt to walk past them. They will turn hostile and the achievement will pop.

Once in Cyseal quickly use a rain spell or scroll at the burning ship and talk to the three unemployed sailormen at docks and promise to try to find jobs for them. Now save your game as there are two ways to finish this quest and one cancels out the other. Now either find Captain Jack at the Cyseal Market or Mendius by the King Crab Inn door and ask work for the sailormen. Once you return the good news to sailors the achievements will pop. Just reload and do the same again with different employer. Btw you should join the Fabulous Five when talking to Mendius.

  • The world needs guts (missable)
    Mendius as the employer



  • Captain Jack (missable)
    Captain Jack as the employer



In the Cyseal Harbour you will find a storage area and two guards arguing about a charmed orc. Do not speak with them unless you have Madora with you. You will lose one dialogue opportunity otherwise. Instead go pick her up right now. She's in the King Crab Inn. Speak with the guards when you have Madora and consult the Sister of Mercy achievement guide for more info.

If you explore Cyseal in clockwise direction you will find a graveyard. If you want, go pick up 'The Philosophy of Death' from Mayor's house upstairs since there will be questions related to that.
  • The mind is a terrible thing to test
    In the graveyard read 'The Philosophy of Death' book if you have it and find a shovel and dig up a grave that reads 'Here lies Nemris, Master of Philosophy'. He will ask three questions: 1: Of course not. 2: Not entirely, no. 3: Your salvation.

Continue the main quest and after your special trip you will get a red teleport pyramid from Arhu.

  • Trick bag
    Use the pyramid you got from Arhu and you will teleport to somewhere unexpected. Pick up the other pyramid and the achievement is yours.


Return to the murder scene in King Crab Inn to continue your investigation. The three next achievements are kind of linked to that quest chain.

  • Suspicious minds
    This will unlock when you have found three condemning items blaming Esmeralda. 1) Letter from the Duke of Ferol inside the chest found in the murder scene. 2) The Perfect Murder book inside Esmeralda's house (Use the backdoor. Key is upstairs). 3) Bloody Dagger from Esmeralda's basement. (Use the button behind a ham). Go confront Esmeralda.

  • Memory Motel
    While rummaging Esmeralda's upstairs for her key you probably found a pair of undergarments. Nice.


  • The one that got away (missable)
    Even though you might have your suspicions go talk to Aureus and accuse Esmeralda with the evidence. This will not have long term effects. You will continue your investigation with Evelyn and ultimately free Esmeralda but we need to let her rot in the jail for a while.


You should have 8/54 achievements
Part I - Outer Cyseal
In the meanwhile we will continue with some side quests in the West and North Cyseal and explore the lighthouse.

  • The mirror inside
    You will find two trapdoors quite close to each other in Northern part of West Cyseal. Split your party in half and descent. In both dungeons you will find four elemental pillars and an order which they must be pressed. Use the pillars in the right order in one dungeon and be prepared for a fight in the other. Do the same in the other one. Pick the amulets that drop and descent even further until you can use the amulets on pedestals to disable a forcefield which will unlock the achievement.


  • Fabulous Disaster
    You have a quest from Fabulous Five to destroy Arhu's failed experiment SparkMaster 5000. You should pick an universal controller & instruction book from Arhu for the fight. This can be your first actually difficult fight so be prepared. Tips: Damage SparkMaster with Air magic as it does extra damage. On your last character before SparkMaster's turn use the controller to discharge the SparkMaster (Angry-Angry-Sleepy). You can also knock the robot down. You can also swap the controller between characters. Once SparkMaster 5000 is dead return to Mayor Cecil.

  • Is anyone home?
    After killing SparkMaster 5000 you have access to NW of Cyseal. Top of the hill you will find four watcher statues. Use damaging spells/scrolls of same element for each statue to spawn an elemental and kill it. Once you have killed all four the achievement and a cave door will pop.

Continue with the murder investigation in NW Cyseal.

  • I walked with a zombie
    You will get this achievement once you beat Evelyn in her lair.



Once you have beaten Evelyn return to Aureus and have him set Esmeralda free. This will unlock the 'The one that got away' achievement. Now is time to enter the Black Cove for four achievements. Be sure to grab the talking head from Cyseal and talk to the cats Sam & Maxine before you venture forth.

  • Push it
    Inside Black Cove there is a pirate's office with a trap door. To open it you need to press a button behind a painting. After descent there will be a puzzle room with multiple buttons. Push the one labeled 'Unlocked switch' for the achievement to pop. It's close to the center.

  • Keelhauled
    After you pushed the correct button, the Blood stained switch, in the previous puzzle room you open a doorway to Pontius Pirate. Kill him and the achievement is yours.


  • You and me
    You need to have the cat quest for this one. Once you have returned from Pontius' lair back to the pirate's office you have a key that can open the black ominous door. Open it and go pass few dead dragons and prepare for a fight. You will fight a big crab boss. It felt like a DPS race so fight accordingly. The boss will drop Sam's collar. Once you return it and watch the cutscene the achievement will pop.

  • Hey Hey Do The Zombie Stomp
    Return back to the pirate's office. You will see a locked gate and a key behind it. Teleport over and make your way down the trapped path and destroy the pulsating Fire totem with ranged attacks. Once you are through the poison vents you will soon meet Nick on a boat. Give the talking head from Cyseal to him and you get a powerful summon & achievement.

We have only one achievement left in Part I and that is to kill Braccus Rex. This will be your hardest fight so far so be prepared for it. Stack fire resistance as you soon will need it. You should have killed all three minibosses: One near the lighthouse, one near the imp's workshop in the East and one inside the burning grove. Once done clear the church and enter it.

  • Live Undead
    Under the church you will find newly reincarnated Braccus Rex. He will taunt you and one-shot your party on tactician mode if you are not prepared. Start the fight with just one character while the rest are waiting in the doorway. Use all your fire resistance skills and items on that person and use him to trigger the fight. The meteor shower might leave him alive. Then just rush back towards the others and wait until the minibosses swarm the doorway and kill them. Braccus just waits patiently in the middle of the room. After the minibosses are gone take your time and remove the void totems and deal with the big baddie. After he is no more return to Selenia the Legion Lieutenant and the achievement is yours.

Before you leave Cyseal make sure Wolgraff is with you and speak with the mute rabbit right next to the area exit to Luculla Forest. Also you should've already met the two undead legionaires in the ruined watermill North of Cyseal and received a Blossius' will for someone called Marisa. Do not alter the will or you will lose an achievement.

You should have 18/54 Achievements now
Part II - Luculla Forest
Inside Silverglen go to the tavern for two achievements.

  • Mister nice guy
    Downstairs you can find Marisa the barmaid. Give her husbands will to her and you'll get the achievement. If you missed her husband, he's in the ruined watermill North of Cyseal.

  • Leave my girl alone
    In the tavern upstairs open the door where Bicky the Bomb is harassing a woman. Speak to Bicky with one character, switch characters and teleport Bicky away from the woman. Easy.


Once you're done exploring Silverglen go free the White Witch

  • Peace Sells
    Walk south of the barrier and talk to the Mushroom Icari. Answer three riddles to get a scroll that removes the barrier. 1) Ear of Corn 2) Stone 3) Butterfly Use the scroll to get the achievement.

In Hiberheim you just need to follow the main quest

  • Into the void
    You will get this when you follow the Northern path in Hiberheim to some sort of fortress. Leandra will taunt you inside and you'll get an achievement. Hint: you can actually steal that Blood Stone with a bit of cunning and teleportation. It's a fun challenge but certainly not necessary to complete the game.

  • Forged in fire
    After you kill the King Boreas you get an Elemental Staff. Drop it in the Elemental Forge to get the achievement. The forge is where you met Leandra.


  • Find the White Witch
    Once you destroy the Elemental Staff you get a Fire Rune that you can use to summon a big fire elemental. Summon the elemental in Hiberheim prison to free Icara.

After you return from Hiberheim go explore the caves. Be sure to grab some Tenebrium ore or Tenebrium bars while inside the caves. You get the item to store the Tenebrium from Brandon's quest while talking to him inside Silverglen.

  • Escape
    You'll get this one after you return from the caves.



Return back to Silverglen with your Tenebrium haul and save your game. We're going to do two achievements here.

  • You keep me rockin (missable)
    Talk to Brandon and say that you will keep the Tenebrium stuff yourself.



  • Truth be told (missable)
    Talk to Brandon inside Silverglen and give you Tenebrium stuff to him. Note that you can pretty much keep most of your Tenebrium stuff if you send everything except one bar or ore to your Homestead inventory.

At this point be sure to carry at least one Tenebrium weapon. Once you explore the very Northern West part of Luculla Forest you'll come to a place full of lava and some strange Void creatures. Zixzag will teleport and tell you that homestead is under attack.

  • Gimme Shelter
    You need tenebrium weapon for this one. Inside Void Temple either go sneaky sneaky with one character through the middle path or follow the left path with your party until you see a mirror. On the left path after the mirror separate your party's best sneaker, give the Tenebrium weapon to that person and sneak through until you see a Blood Stone. Do not try to fight any of those Void monsters. Shatter the Blood Stone with your weapon and the achievement will pop.

After the Void Temple you will soon notice a Goblin Village pretty much center of Luculla Forest. East of the Goblin Village is a waypoint and you'll hear a troll patrolling nearby. Avoid talking to the troll as we need to make him a king for an achievement. Do however grab Wolgraff to your party and talk to the sad deer near Archibald the Troll.

  • Kingdom Come (missable)
    You need to kill the Troll King for this. Do NOT talk to Archibald the Troll before you have done this or you will miss the achievement. To kill the Troll King you need to deal with Maradino and grab his notes. Maradino's hidden lair is just north of Goblin Village next to a tree and a cliff. Explore the lair until you find Maradino's Secret Files. Use the acquired book in a mushroom circle outside Troll King Lair and go inside to do your dirty deed. The achievement will pop after you have killed the king and talked to Archibald.

At this point you should have access to Sacred Stone where you can finish Bairdotr's questline and achievement. After exploring Sacred Stone head to the Immaculate Cathedral where you will get

  • Sacrifice
    You will get this when you meet Mangoth inside Immaculate Cathedral.



  • Time to kill
    After you grab Leandra's Vial of Blood inside Immaculate Cathedral combine it with Leandra's Spell to create a new skillbook. You will get an achievement for that.



  • Headlines
    You will get this after you get Leandra's Notes inside Immaculate Cathedral and travel to End of Times to talk to Icara.


After Luculla & Hiberheim you should have 33/54 Achievements (+1 if you already have maxed a skill tree)
Part III - Phantom Forest
When you enter Phantom Forest, just follow the Southern path and you'll soon see Hunter's Edge.

  • Sleeping village
    When you enter Hunter's Edge you will pop this achievement.



  • Whisky in the jar
    For this achievement you will be helping Hershel to acquire some whisky but first you need to grab a instruction book from Glen's House basement. Follow its instructions running around Hunter's Edge (water = bucket of water). For the aging part teleport to End of Time and speak to Zixzax. Finally give the Whisky to Hershel for the achievement to pop.

Upstairs in Orc Tavern you'll meet Norok. This is where Madora's Sister of Mercy achievement pops. You need to have changed her behaviour to more forgiving through at least five different dialogues and you need to have forgiving trait on your both characters.

Once you have followed the main quest you will enter the Phantom part of Phantom Forest. Do note that you can destroy certain lich's bones but save your game before you do that. There is a branching achievement that you might miss. We will do Western Phantom Forest achievement wise first and then Eastern swampy part second.

  • Feeble screams from forests unknown
    You'll get this achievement after acquiring Zandalor's amulet and when you walk through the spectral mist guarding the area.


  • Baaaah.
    North of Thorn Grounds waypoint is a path downwards. There's a tree with runes imbued on it. Throw a stardust herb on the ground before the runes and you'll get this achievement.

  • To hell with the devil
    You'll get this when you burn Cassandra's bones in Temple of the Dead and go kill her. Do note that this is a branching achievement. Save your game before you burn the bones.

You can now finish Wolgraff's companion quest. You don't need to have Wolgraff with you. Go kill the voice-stealing Immaculate at the end of the path North of Thorny Grounds waypoint with lots of thorny roots and pick up Voxwood. Next clear the Temple of the Dead and you'll find Bottled Voice. Use craft menu to combine these two and give the elixir to Wolgraff and you'll get your achievement.

Next up is Eastern Phantom Forest and finishing Jahan's quest. Go to the hut in the North Eastern part of Phantom Forest with Jahan in your party. Under the hut you will meet demon Balbereth. Speak with him and kill him and you'll get the achievement. Pick up Stasis Fern from the imprisoned forest spirit.

  • Wicked young man (missable)
    After Balbereth you can buy Stasis Fern from the forest spirit and give it to Cassandra.


  • Stray Cat Strut (missable)
    After Balbereth you can buy Stasis Fern from the forest spirit and give it to Arhu.



You probably have already found Bellegar and his three barrels in the middle part of Phantom Forest. Now in South East part of Phantom Forest you will find a huge pile of gold. Click it for Bellegar to appear again and he will give you his maze waypoint. Travel there.

  • Amazing
    Solve Bellegar's Maze. You get the waypoint from interacting with Bellegar's illusions inside Phantom Forest.


The next achievements are gained just by following the main quest line. Be sure to have one unspent talent point on either of your characters for the Wolfpack achievement.

  • Grizzled Finale
    You will get this achievement once you enter the Source Temple in Phantom Forest.



  • Skull Crushing Finale
    You need to finish Trial of Ascension. If you are stuck here are some minor hints: 1st Trial: Air Gate is the last one you go to. 2nd Trial: You only need to use the candles inside the circular stone.

  • The Wizard
    You will meet Zandalor after the Trial of Ascension. Just talk to him and you will get your achievement.


  • King Crab
    Just follow the main quest to the End of Time. You will eventually get this achievement.


  • The Glimmer Twins
    You get a choice to reunite the two sister after a big battle. Do it and the achievement is yours.


Now there is just the final battle and prologue left. Once you have beaten the final boss and given the congratulations speak pop your unspent talent point on Wolfpack. You only need one character to have it. It will also get rid of your companions but you don't need them for anything anymore so it's fine.

  • Grand Finale
    You will get this after you beat the prologue.



You should be at 53/54 achievements. You only miss one and it's by far the hardest one.
Honour Mode
Now that you're almost done with your achievements you have a choice to make: Do you pursue the hardest one or forget about it.

If you're willing to put yourself through the game again with a chance that if you fail you will need to restart from the beginning, good luck! There are plenty of guides how to survive Honour Mode. Read them all and put use your own knowledge.

If you don't have the time to spend on another much riskier playthrough I have good news for you. You can play through Honour Mode in one sitting. Steam user Chrest wrote a brilliant guide how to basically skip everything and kill any boss with cunning tricks. Link to the Fast Honour Mode guide by Chrest.

I used the said guide and got my achievement on second try. Then I put some effort to it and recorded a speedrun of me running the game in Honour Mode under one hour:

As you can see from the video: The run is not that risky nor is it that hard and even you can do it! It's fun actually.

Thanks for this amazing guide, you're a life saver

Thank you for the guide, it helped a lot. P.S. in Honor Mode, you can also use chests as weight not only barrels, chests have 50 weight, water/poison/oil barrels 60, i got to 7300 weight at the end, it took 2 hits to kill the dragon, also it's a good idea to get adrenaline in case you want to escape a fight or miss with the chest because of the hitbox not being where you think it is.
Alpha Epsilon 12 Feb, 2023 @ 6:11pm 
The guide to grab the Wolfpack achievement easily does not work anymore, but I found a workaround. You do NOT receive the Wolfpack achievement if you buy the lone wolf talent AFTER killing the final boss as written in the guide, no Wolfpack after epilogue or credits neither. Now you have to buy the lone wolf talent BEFORE landing the killing blow on the final boss. During end credits the Wolfpack achievement will pop.

You are my hero for enduring this slog of a game. I had gotten lost multiple times each act and am on my way through Hunter's Edge now. Kudos to you!

About stealing the Blood Stone on Into the void

Have Madora - or another character with high STR - throw the Blood Stone as further as you can so you wont get stunned by Leandra; it will break the scene when Leandra tries to conjure demons though and she will just stand there, immortal
