Missable Achievements & Trophies in Dawnwalker
The short version: the ending achievements are the main missable set, and one manual save at the finale protects all of them. Everything else is either progression-locked or still being confirmed.
Quick answer
- Ending achievements: the four full endings and two early endings each have achievements; Time Runs Out does not.
- One save protects them: a manual save at the finale lets you reload and see every ending branch without replaying the campaign.
- Main achievement: finishing the story at all (including early endings) unlocks the main completion achievement.
The ending achievement set
| Achievement | Requires |
|---|---|
| The Turncoat | Take Brencis's deal in the finale |
| The Folk Hero | Fight Brencis alone in the finale |
| The Patricide | Complete Lacra's line and fight with her |
| The Knyazmaker | Complete Crake's line and fight with the Manumits |
| A Hero They Deserve | Leave Vale Sangora via the Coward's Path (early ending) |
| Together Forever | Stay with your family via the Home Sweet Home loop (early ending) |
| Main completion (The Blood of Dawnwalker) | Finish the story by any route — no separate requirement |
The one-save plan
- Before the finale, finish both ally lines (Lacra and Crake) so every full-ending option exists.
- Start the final mission and create a manual save immediately.
- Take the deal → The Turncoat; reload, fight alone → The Folk Hero; reload, fight with Lacra → The Patricide; reload, fight with Crake → The Knyazmaker.
- Treat the two early endings as separate short routes (they sit right after the prologue), not as finale reloads.
Watchlist (community-reported)
- Low-Infamy trophy: launch-build players mention an achievement tied to staying unobtrusive in Svartrau; treat the exact conditions as Needs verification.
- Difficulty completion: community reports say the top difficulty expects saving Laslea's people in a full run; the official wording is unconfirmed.
- Progression-locked achievements: most non-ending achievements track quests and systems — no special missable behavior is confirmed yet.
