The Blood of Dawnwalker

Steam Achievements and Practical Routes

Use Steam’s requirement list alongside practical routes for equipment, progression and selected story achievements.

Achievements cover exploration, combat and story choices

What is in the Steam achievement list?

Steam tracks 46 achievements for The Blood of Dawnwalker. The list covers combat techniques, exploration, equipment, progression and story choices across Vale Sangora.

The tables preserve the public text shown on Steam’s global achievement page. 23 entries have hidden requirement text. The practical routes below add help with selected achievements while keeping that advice separate from the Steam descriptions.

Planning a completion run? Story and choice achievements can belong to different outcomes. Keep a separate save before a major decision and use the quest directory to follow the related characters and locations.

For Smuggler, earn 1,000 denarii by selling silver. The Silver Trader guide covers the Svartrau shop, the clue or Infamy requirement and the nine silver valuables you can bring.

Turn achievement requirements into a plan

Ultimate perks: Master of Arms, Arch Warlock and Creature of the Night

Swordmastery and Witchcraft require 35 points invested in ordinary perks of their respective trees before an Ultimate becomes available. Vampirism uses Corruption 15. Reserve four skill points and two time segments for the chosen Ultimate, and check the nine-perk comparison before committing.

Arbiter’s Blade and Arbiter’s Regalia

Arbiter’s Blade asks for St. Mihai’s sword restored to its former glory; owning the Broken version is only an early step. Follow A Monk and a Saint and the later Forge It Anew. For Regalia, collecting ordinary armour pieces is not the full requirement: consult the relic and Arbiter armour guide for their enhancement choices.

Smuggler and Miser count different things

Smuggler counts 1,000 denarii earned by selling silver; Miser asks you to accumulate 5,000 denarii. A profitable non-silver sale can help your coin balance without advancing the silver-selling objective. Bring the valuables listed in the Silver Trader guide and check his shop unlock before making the trip.

Selfish: sell fish to the fishmonger

Find the daytime fishmonger in Svartrau’s market and sell her a fish consumable. A Dried Fish bought from her can be sold back for this transaction. Check the interaction name: a Food Vendor map label alone does not identify every merchant as the fishmonger.

A daytime market visit is a useful point to handle this before further Court progression. The Court and edict guide explains the wider progression.

Story achievements and Together Forever

The Folk Hero, The Knyazmaker and The Turncoat relate to different outcomes around Brencis. The Manumit instead concerns Crake’s optional secrets. Use the ending-route comparison to identify the departure task and save before committing.

Together Forever route — early-ending spoilers

Home Sweet Home begins through the door at the top of Silts Tower. Continue through its repeating return to Coen’s family to reach the early ending. The early-ending notes explain the repetition and the save to keep if you want to resume the main campaign.

Uphill Battle and the family deadline

Keep the Duelist preset throughout the run and save Laslea’s people, as Steam’s requirement states. Complete optional preparation before departure, then continue through the ending’s remaining journal tasks. Keep your pre-assault save for alternate outcomes after the difficulty run is finished.
