    • Caught a Coolfrog

    While exploring Item Dreams you have a chance of triggering floor events.

    One of these events is a GoldFrog floor where the floor is full of goldfrogs and coolfrogs.

    Coolfrogs look exactly as how this achievement icon looks like: a Goldfrog with shades.

    Make sure to always have at least 1 space open in your corral and keep exploring item worlds until you find this event.

    Try not to kill the coolfrog, use offensive items like caltrops or flame cocktails, if you have low STR, you can use your fists to whittle down the Coolfrog's HP.

    if you have unlocked the beastlake park bonus, you need only need to bring the HP down to 20% instead of 15%.

    Read more about that here: https://tangledeep.fandom.com/wiki/Beastlake_Park

    You can read more about Coolfrog here:https://tangledeep.fandom.com/wiki/Coolfrog

    Good luck!

    • Fabled Tamer

    The Eidolon is a creature that can be found in The Realm of the Gods area, I found mine in Floor 5 of the Realm of the Gods.

    The Realm of the Gods can be unlocked by finishing the game and also finishing the wanderer's (fishing guy) first tutorial realm.

    To unlock the wanderer you must have the DLC installed and must have defeated the first boss.

    Like the coolfrog, you need to find the Eidolon and whittle its HP enough for you to use a hammer, then avoid him dying from other enemies attacks until you can portal back to town and deliver it to the corral.

    Make sure you have defeated most enemies around the Eidolon then whittle its HP with soft attacks, using cocktails or grenades or your fists if you do weak damage with them.

    The Eidolon looks exactly as the achievement icon.

    Cheers!

    • The Ultimate Challenge

    The Tower of Ordeals is one of the tales you can play with the wanderer (fishing guy).

    It can only be unlocked after finishing the first tutorial tale.

    The Tower is made of 50 floors and its a real challenge if you dont master your class since you start at level 1 without equipment, pets or skills. (practically from zero)

    If you die in the Tower, you will be expelled and you will keep nothing, but your normal stuff will be returned to you.. still, it will be a waste of time.

    Here are some tips that might help you overcome this scenario:

    Pick a job you are comfortable with, you wont be able to change jobs while in the tower, so make sure you can bring a job unique potential.

    I used summoner because the summons help as decoys and meat shields plus I can still use spells.

    It might be too late but at the beginning of the story, you can pick 2 feats and several advantages or penalties to make the game easier/harder.

    I picked Toughness and Fast learner, these helped me in the Tower too along with the advantages (regen outside combat, etc)

    Clear every floor and find the merchants, you need to equip yourself and get enough money for the best stuff.

    I would suggest you dont go further until you are decently equipped, remember that monster will constantly spawn and drop loot.

    Clearing an entire floor will also level you up.

    Never go up a floor if the floor you are in says Hard. Try to avoid moving on if it says Tricky and only move when it says Easy just to be safe.

    Be patient and grind a while.

    Champions are super dangerous, train in fighting them in the normal floor or Item Dreams first, each champion has one or two unique attacks and you should know how to handle the situations.

    If you can, get weapons with elemental effects, some champions are vulnerable to certain attacks.

    Same goes with spells, if you are magic-based.

    Use and buy consumables, they are there for a good reason and help lots in sticky situations.

    You will get a lot of chances at campfires, cook your meals and get the good stuff (66%HP heal food item or Total Energy recovery Item)

    After Floor 30, it gets rough and you will need to learn when to fight and when to run, this is where summons come in handy.

    Do not take on 3~4 enemies at once, try to bait them to divide and conquer.

    Dont forget your healing flask, there will be a lot of fountains here.

    Good luck!

    • A Lady and a Scholar

    Use 10 runes to gain special abilities.

    Runes can be found inside the fisherman (wanderer) tales.

    Monster dont drop them, I personally bought them off from merchants along the way, I never found 2 runes in a single rune in shops, however.

    Maybe The Memory King in the Tale might drop one instead of a relic, but Im not too sure, I do know a shop will always have one for sale in a single run.

    You might not be able to bring the rune out from the tale with you, but thats ok, the moment you use it, the achievement counter will go up.

    This also counts for duplicate runes, I think I used the same rune twice and it still counted.

    I not 100% sure, but the counter might remain intact through several different lives, meaning, you dont need to use 10 runes with the same adventuress.

    So, in your wanderer tale run, always clear the complete map to make sure you dont pass a shop, once you buy the rune, you can just rush to the finish.

    I grinded Hall of Champions for some hours until I got them all, getting cool relics along the way.

    Cheers!

    • Frog Dragon Conquered

    This achievement requires Dawn of the Dragons DLC.

    Horatio is the Frog Dragon and the first dragon you need to meet to unlock the rest of them.

    He can be found in Frog Bog which is a hidden area in the game.

    Hidden areas are always available if you look for them in certain parts of the dungeon but if you are having trouble finding one, you can talk to the rumormonger in town, she is next to the campfire and hope you get the rumor about the Frog Bog.

    About 1 or 2 new days, she gives out new rumors and there is a very high chance that she has a new rumor about a new hidden area, keep trying.

    You can use tents to pass a day or some item dreams also let you pass day (usually, an item dream that matches your level).

    Once you unlock Frog Bog, you need to clear the area free of monsters for the hidden staircase to appear.

    Then you need to clear 3 floors full of mud of special frogs to get to the Boss fight: Frog Dragon, he is immune to poison.

    If you are already level 20 and are equipped with your best relics and abilities, he is not that hard to beat.

    Beating Horatio will unlock the Frog Magic crafting system needed for the achievement Fantastic Frog Friend.

    Horatio will also unlock and tell you the location of the other 3 dragons (although he tells you the location in freaking riddles).

    Cheers!

    • Fantastic Frog Friend

    This achievement needs Dawn of the Dragons DLC.

    To unlock frogcrafting you need to beat Horatio the Frog Dragon.

    Read my guide on how to do this here: Frog Dragon Conquered

    Once you unlock frogcrafting, you only need to craft 10 items with him.

    The simplest recipes involve 3 common items of the same type (3x weapons, 3x armors, 3x shields/books).

    Pretty easy once you unlock this feature.

    Cheers!

    • Tyrant Dragon Conquered

    This achievement needs the Dawn of the Dragons DLC installed.

    The Tyrant Dragon can be unlocked after defeating the Frog Dragon and talking to him about the location of the other dragons.

    To find the Tyrant Dragon go to Beastlake Park and climb the Vine you find there.

    The following several floors will be a base defend style game where you will need to defend vinelings from wave of monsters.

    I suggest playing a ranged build here or a build with lots of mobility.

    Certain champion monsters will spawn and they will have to be your priority, specially the champions that summon other monsters.

    Summoning Eggs, Scrolls of Teleportation and Chalices to heal the vinelings will help here.

    Once you reach the top floor, you will be faces with the Tyrant Dragon.

    He is Immune to Fire and has high physical and fire attacks.

    Once he drops to around 20% HP, he will go berserks, dodge and try to use your ranged attacks unless you are a Tank.

    Have your healing items handy, its a good fight.

    Cheers!

    • Bandit Dragon Conquered

    This achievement requires Dawn of Dragons DLC.

    The Bandit Dragon can be found through a special staircase found in DirtBeak's Den (6F).

    You can only unlock the stairs after talking to the Frog Dragon about the other dragon's locations after defeating it.

    The stage is tricky since you need to press pressure plates to open gates and in the first floor, you need a Knight's Shovel to open up a wall to find the hidden staircase to the second floor.

    Upper floors will have you defeat powerful champions called Gatekeepers to open the central gate which houses the staircase to the next floor.

    The Bandit dragon himself is the weakest of the extra dragons and his with physical and throws caltrops around that cause bleeding.

    Have anti-bleeding measures in place.

    In this floor, the pressure plates will open gates that will have enemy reinforcements. Avoid opening these gates by avoiding the plates.

    Its a nice little fight overall.

    Cheers!

    • Echo Dragon Conquered

    This achievement requires Dawn of Dragons DLC.

    The echo Dragon can be found in a item dream, inside a red portal.

    This portal will only appear if you talked to the Frog Dragon and asked about the other dragon's locations.

    I personally found the portal in my first try in the Item Dream of a Relic.

    The Gimmick of these special dragon area stages are blessed pools.

    In order to avoid having to defeat very hard versions of the hard monsters already in here, you must deliver the final blow to a monster inside water.

    I personally left my pet back in town for this to avoid my pet killing a monster outside water.

    In the final floor of the dragon's domain you will finally be face to face against the Echo Dragon.

    This boss has two main mechanics:

    1)You can only beat him over a Pool of Water, making his Dodge stat go nuts, make sure you have good accuracy for this fight.

    Also, a melee build is recommended to fight him over water and have better accuracy.

    1. He has two forms, a spirit form and a physical form, he will switch between these.

    In this physical form, he is strong against elemental attacks but open to physical attacks.

    In his spirit form, he is strong against physical but open to elemental attacks.

    Echo Dragon attacks with all elements except lightning and also physical.

    His most dangerous attack is shadow breath, make sure your shadow resistance is up to par.

    You might want to portal out before the final fight and get your pet to help you fight the boss in the last floor.

    It was a great fight overall, hope you have fun with it too.

    Cheers!

    • Jelly Dragon Conquered

    This achievement needs Dawn of Dragons DLC installed.

    Once you talk to Horatio, the Frog Dragon, after defeating him, he will tell you the location of four other dragons.

    The Jelly Dragon can be found in the Hidden Area known as jelly grotto.

    Jelly Grotto is probably the first hidden area you have found, so you will need to backtrack into the lower levels to find it.

    If you havent found Jelly Grotto, Talking to Erin near the town's campfire might trigger a rumor that will unlock it for you.

    Check every one or two days with her to see if you get the quest.

    It is also possible to find the hidden areas just by exploring the levels. I think.

    The Gimmick of the areas leading up to the Jelly Dragon is Tower defense/attack.

    Basically, you have towers in the area, you start with one tower and Jelly Allies.

    Your allies will rush towards neutral or enemy towers and try to capture them.

    Your job is to defeat enemy jellies while destroying the dark shadow ground they leave behind.

    You will meet the Jelly Dragon at the top floor of these areas.

    The Jelly Dragon is one of the easiest of the bunch and he only attacks with physical.

    However, he summons jelly troops regularly as reinforcements and these have a varied methods of attack.

    All in all, an easy fight once you are maxxed out.

    Cheers!

    • Where Did That Come From?

    To breed a monster, you need two captured pet monsters fall in love with each other.

    To do this, you need to COOK a special food with the Rose Petals as a Spice Ingredient.

    Once you have 4 or 5 of these foods, go to the Corral and choose the option to have a Monster Romantic Dinner.

    After several Dinners, your monsters will breed but only if you have enough space for the offspring.

    Once the offspring hatches, you will get this achievement.

    • Distant Dream Dimension

    I asked around the forum and the Dev got to me very quickly telling me the following:
    "It's 5% chance per day. You have to talk to the Dreamcaster to see if the option has appeared. You must also be level 13 or higher."

    And after a few tries, I did one item dream, a hidden area clear and five tents, I finally got it.

    • Dragon Dawn Defeated

    Once you defeat the final dragon AND the final story boss, you will unlock the location of the Dragon Dawn when visiting Horatio the Frog Dragon, get ready for some intense fights and bring your A-Game.

    In the mechanical stages you are about to face you will fight a lot of robotic enemies, some are very fast and have the neutralize skill which SEAL your abilities, so bring something to counter that or just use your weapons on them.

    Some other enemies will cast black holes which will root you to a spot for 4 to 6 turns, its super annoying but you can use your move abilities like Wild Horse to get out of the black hole and kill them, of course, if your abilities are sealed.. well, you better have good defenses while you wait.

    You will also notice that the enemies drop parts to some kind of eggs and once you pick the right amount and combination, they will self-assemble. These eggs are like grenades you can throw at the colored cubes that act as walls to some of the passages and the egg explosion will break those colored cubes, the color matters to the grenade you throw.

    There are 4 floors in total and at the top, the Robot God Dragon awaits.
    If he was alone it would be a hard fight but with all the turrets and bomb materializers nearby behind colored cubes, its a challenge.
    You have to distract the boss long enough for you to go around the room destroying the barriers to get to the turrets and other enemies so you can fight the boss in peace.
    Summons help with the distraction and choco bars will give you extra turns every 8 turns to throw egg grenades around, use brews of rapidity to also gain extra turns quicker, elixirs and health potions will keep you alive while Balsams will help you remove nasty debuffs, bring everything to this fight.

    Anyway, once you defeat the last dragon, a conversation will happen and after that conversation is over, the achievement will unlock.

    Cheers!

    Good luck!

    • Corral Caretaker

    To get a letter you must release a monster pet with 10 happiness (Joyous) then, you have 10% chance of receiving a letter at the start of a new day.

    The chance will go up by 10% every consecutive day up to a maximum of 50% chance in the 5th day after you released the creature.

    You will see the letter as an item on the floor as soon as you enter the new day. So be on the lookout for it.

    The best way to increase your chances is to release a lot of pets, although you can only receive one letter per day, your chances will improve.

    If you breed 2 joyous happiness monsters, the offspring will also be joyous, you can farm letters this way.

    Breed 2 Joyous monsters, release the offspring, repeat.

    To breed 2 monsters you to create a dish with rose petals as an ingredient as then give them to them at the corral until they fall in love, one more dish will make them breed and give offspring.

    The letter use is to give one of your pet one of the letter writer's abilities. This is a good way to create an ultimate pet by breeding good stats onto them then customizing their abilities through letters.

    Cheers!

    • Ace of Armaments

    You need to spend a lot of JP (Job Points) to get all the abilities of a single weapon, the problem here is that you need to learn an Ultimate Move to completely master a weapon. To learn an ultimate move you need to buy all the previous upgrades and then kill 25 non-trivial champions with the weapon you want to master in your main hand.

    You can only learn one ultimate technique per adventuress.

    This means that if you learn the ultimate technique for swords, you wont be able to get the achievement. Whip It Good which requires the whip ultimate.

    So yeah, if you want to unlock both achievements, choose Whips to sink your JP into.

    Cheers.

    • Whip It Good

    In town, the elk will teach you abilities for a certain weapon.

    You need to spend a lot of JP (Job Points) to get all the abilities of a single weapon, the problem here is that you need to learn an Ultimate Move to completely master a weapon. To learn an ultimate move you need to buy all the previous upgrades and then kill 25 non-trivial champions with the weapon you want to master in your main hand.

    You can only learn one ultimate technique per adventuress.

    So, plan ahead and make a Whip build for this or not, ultimates are good but not necessary to win the game.

    The Whip is a new weapon that requires Dawn of the Dragons DLC.

    Cheers.

    • The Iron Chef

    Standing next to the campfire in town and activating it will give you access to the cooking interface.

    By using tup to 3 ingredients, you can create several foods.

    You can buy ingredients from a bear nearby, their stock refreshes every new day.

    You can also find them as loot in the dungeons.

    You can find a table with the recipes here: https://tangledeep.fandom.com/wiki/Meals

    • Vanquisher of Nightmares

    To enter a item nightmare, one must first acquire a Nightmare Orb and use it on the dreamcaster to enter an Item.

    To get a Nightmare orb, you need a few red orb shards to craft one which can be acquired by defeating Nightmare Princes while doing Item Dreams.

    To find a Nightmare Prince, there is a chance of their lair spawning on the final floor of an Item Dream, defeat the prince and you can get a shard.

    I felt the chance is higher, the higher ranking the item is. Legendaries and such.

    The boss of an item nightmare is a nightmare queen which has a special invulnerability mechanic and you can read this page to find out how to beat her:

    https://tangledeep.fandom.com/wiki/Item_Dream

    Here is the part you want to know:

    The Queen spawns next to the player at the start, following and attacking every turn. She is initially invulnerable to damage, forcing the player to advance forward.

    Each floor contains a Nightmare Crystal. Destroying all three of these crystals will transport the player to the center of the third floor, where they have a chance to defeat the Queen, who will be accompanied by two Nightmare Princes. Shadow Turrets may also spawn. Defeating the Queen yields loot with nightmare affixes, alongside the item forfeited to enter the nightmare.

    Cheers!

    • Shadow Slayer
    • Gear Set Match

    The Casino is the fastest way to complete a gear set, since it has a very high chance of spawning a set gear each day.

    Be sure to check the casino every new day for this.

    I personally like to bet on BlackJack to get tokens but threads Ive read say the slot machine is way better for this.

    Once you equip 3 gears of the same set, this achievement will unlock.
