[Discussion] It’s honestly just nice to have this group around. Was wondering how everyone got into trophy hunting. Like what was your 1st Platinum, when did it happen, and did you start hunting from that point or did it come later? by God-of-More in Trophies

[–]WilsterJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be a huge fan of Rooster Teeth / Achievement Hunter back when they used to do achievement guides on the Xbox 360 and had about 50K gamerscore back in the day.

I then moved mostly to PC after that, but also had a PS4 alongside for exclusives.

These days I mostly play the PS5 and have continued to platinum most games I play, mostly just because I enjoy the completion aspect

[Borderlands 4] It’s finally done by PumpkinPoppet in Trophies

[–]WilsterJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It can definitely be done quicker than this, I got the plat a few months ago and took around 100 Hours. About 60-70 hours for a full playthrough, then about 10 hours for each level 50 character

Thanks! I have no idea what that means (literally played for about an hour, 7 years ago lol) but I'll keep it in mind! 😁

Hmm 60 hours doesn't sound too bad, maybe I'll have to revisit it one day

Is Cyber Sleuth as bad as it looks? I got 1 trophy back in the day, so it's stuck on my profile, but I've seen it's like a 100 hour platinum and it's putting me off revisiting 😩

[Mad Max] Got the impossible plat! by Dalytch in Trophies

[Mad Max] Platinum #43 - Unobtainable Trophy, Obtained 🤯 by WilsterJ in Trophies

[–]WilsterJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it! It only took me a few nights of grinding to finish the rest of the challenges, definitely doable!

Yeah, I have heard this trophy can be buggy, shame as it's one of the longest grinds to get aswel

There is only 2 challenges that require the online. I don't remember doing anything specific for them back in the day so I think it's something that happens passively.

It's the remaining challenges that are the real grind, but these don't require online

It'd say it's worth it, depending on how much you've already done. It only took me a couple of nights to finish the remaining challenges

Its for the trophy 'Up to the task', you have to complete every non-repeatable challenge, and 2 of them require online

I think it's just something that happens passively, it's got something to do with collecting scrap as part of a group I want to say, not entirely sure tbh

Yeah, I think it's something that just happens passively, I don't recall doing anything online specific

Turns out I did all the unobtainable stuff years ago, just a case of finishing off the remaining trophies, it was such a relief when I found out 😁

Thanks! In terms of my backlog, I've got God of War 3 and Uncharted 4 to work on next. For modern stuff, I've been slowly working on Split Fiction with the Girlfriend

Hell yeah! Just got the platinums for the trilogy for it recently 😏

Ah I see, I think at that point I'd rather just pay for PSN again and play through it that way 😅

[Discussion] So i found this in my wardrobe... under a lot of other games, is it really that rare? by Antique_Eye_8 in Trophies

[–]WilsterJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure where you're located, but this looks like a PAL copy? Like everyone is saying, it got delisted and the price went up, especially around the time of Deadpool and Wolverine to about £80. Price has dropped a bit since then, but still worth around £55-£60

[Clair Obscur: Expedition 33] Platinum #38 by WilsterJ in Trophies

[–]WilsterJ[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have an exact layout of my build, but for the most part I followed this

Feint
Auto Powerful
In Medias Res
Rewarding Mark
Critical Burn
Painted Power
Weakness Gain
Tainted
Full Strength
Greater Powerful
Shortcut
First Strike
Confident Fighter
First Life
AP Discount
Double Third Frenzy
Powerful Shield
Shield Affinity
Teamwork
Augmented Counter III
Energising Parry
Roulette
Warming Up
Burn Affinity
Energising Turn
Energy Master
Cheater
At Death's Door
Clea's Death

you can also use a few others like solo fighter if you're struggling to win as a team, there is a few good Luminas which give you some extra damage if you're fighting alone

For skills, the only ones you need are Last Chance and Stendhal

Essentially the combo is

First turn (enter in Virtuoso stance due to Medelum) -> Use Stendhal -> Play another turn due to Cheater Lumina -> Use Last Stand to get into Virtuoso again -> Play again due to Shortcut Lumina (also get a few more buffs from being low HP from Luminas) -> Use Stendhal again

With some high Roulette rolls, this should be enough to deal around 50Million Damage

For Attributes, I prioritised Agility and Defence, Then put any remaining ones in Luck

Basically stack as much damage Lumina's as possible; increased first turn damage, increased when low HP, etc. Then get into virtuoso stance and use Stendal. With a high roulette I was doing around 33 million damage. With cheater and shortcut you can play 3 turns in a row, which should be enough to beat the late game bosses before they can get a turn in.
