Hard Achievements
These ones are all achievable on any difficulty.


On the Edge
Survive the night with 1 Max HP at the end.
I recommend Darkness 1. (For extra XP)
You can also try and get "Nimble" in the same run and aim to survive without getting hit.
I recommend using Hina with shotgun and make sure to select "Tome of speed" and "Tome of power" to reduce your max health.


Nimble
Survive the night without getting hit.
As mentioned above, you can do this in the same run as "On the Edge".

Hina's dash is good to avoid hitting enemies.
The best builds will typically either prioritise Summon Mastery or Mini Clip. Grab 'Holy Shield' because it will block a hit when it's active and still counts.


Gotta Catch 'Em ALL
Survive the night with 8 summons at the end.
You can use Shana to get the "Specialize" upgrade from one of the three mini bosses. This will triple the effect of the next upgrade you take. Then use Specialize on a summon such as dagger, ghost, dragon or bug, then gradually unlock the rest normally.

You can also cheese it and just survive as Lilith as her spirit ability counts every spirit as a summon. The runes "Seismic Ward" and "Gun Glyph" also count.


Pacifist
Survive the night without firing your gun.
I recommend Hina with grenade launcher. (Her right click clone will do as much damage as the gun you pick.) Prioritise dragon first. Then daggers, ghost, magic lens, glare, movement ect.
See below for ideal runes. (You don't need to be maxed, just level what you can.)


Reckless
Survive with Abby and Grenade Launcher using only Abby's special ability to fire.
Prioritise gun and reload upgrades. Bullet speed upgrades also increase grenade distance, helps prevent suicide.
Build into Death Rounds and Gun Mastery and get Tome of Rage as soon as possible.
Note: Abby's ability is random directions but purchasing the Splitfire upgrade (Shooting a bullet behind you) will give you one bullet to fire where you want. Good early game.

Use Dasher to get to darkness 15
And use summon builds which auto kills the entire screen for every class
Enjoy

@Nebula Caster is correct. This guide should recommend Dasher for "On The Edge", that RNG was a pain.
Nebula Caster 2 Nov, 2024 @ 8:03pm 
For "On The Edge", I found this one easiest with Dasher. She only has 2 max HP, so you only need to rely on RNG for one of the tomes that knocks off one max HP. She also is indestructible while in her deer form, which makes it way harder to kill you for a good chunk of the run.

Tried this after failing to get both tomes for several runs with Spark and other 3 health characters, but got it on the first run with Dasher. Thought I would share for anyone else having the same problem.

Another tip is when going for Reckless or Pacifist - summons do not count as guns and can be used for both cheevos.

I just want to leave some tips for the future people who come here.
Watering Gun is without a doubt, if not the best, one of the most best guns you have in-game.
Diamond is also, one of the best characters of the game (for ME the best).
Mix both, and you can easily get some of the achievements.

This is considered a 'guide'? A copy paste of the achievements themselves? Crazy.

thx mate

For Reckless, it's also a good idea to run Blast Shield in Temple, since not only does that give her immunity to her own explosions, but it also makes her immune to both exploding enemy types' explosions (contact damage can still occur though)

Just wanted to add that with the Deer character, it still counts as pacifist.
