WILL UPDATE TO FULL GUIDE & ROADMAPWHEN LIST IS AVAILABLE
Taming The Storm
Gale Sanctum is the second and final level of the Howling Peaks DLC. It is recommended to complete this on Adventure IV difficulty(recommended power level: 51), as this is the easier difficulty; however, you will get better gear drops and chests for playing on Apocalypse difficulty (recommended power level: 86+). This level is straightforward with a simple boss fight at the end.
For the boss, you should notice two poles with a square of light around them. Ignore the boss, it doesn't move or really attack you at all (just dodge it's lighting attack), and stand inside one of the squares to cause minor mobs and squall golems to spawn. keep defeating them until the pole is no longer lit. Rinse and repeat at the second pole. The boss will now enter a stunned animation where you can do major damage. When it's stun ends, simply rinse and repeat defeating the minor mobs and completing the poles to stun the boss until you defeat it.
Rampart Rampage
Colossal Rampart is the secret level in the Howling Peaks DLC. You will need to unlock it by finding the hidden scroll in the first level of the Howling Peaks DLC, Windswept Peaks. After unlocking the level, playthrough it on whatever difficulty you want to earn this achievement.
See video below on how to unlock the Colossal Rampart secret level.
Whirlwind Warrior
The Tempest Knife is a new weapon that can be dropped by mobs or found in chests on any Howling Peaks DLC level. You'll need some RNG to get a Tempest Knife, though the drop rate is pretty high for this weapon, so it isn't as annoying to unlock as some of the other weapons. It is also possible to unlock this as an end of level reward or to purchase it from the merchants at camp. Also it must be the base Tempest Knife, not a unique variant.
Mountaineers are a new enemy mob that can also be found on any Howling Peaks DLC level, they wear hooded jackets and carry pickaxes. I recommend playing on Windswept Peaks on the lowest difficulty, Default II (recommended power level: 4), and gathering a large train of Mountaineers. Now, with your Tempest Knife equipped, start to defeat your train of mobs within 10 seconds to unlock this achievement. There are plenty of them in the level to try this multiple times in one playthrough.
See the video below for more information.
A Taste of Their Own Medicine
The Updraft Tome is a new artifact that can be dropped by mobs or found in chests on any Howling Peaks DLC level. You'll need some RNG to get an Updraft Tome. It is also possible to unlock this as an end of level reward or to purchase it from the merchants at camp.
Wind Callers are a new enemy mob that can also be found on any Howling Peaks DLC level, they wear green clothing with a tall hat and carry a staff similar to a Shaman.I recommend playing on Windswept Peaks on the lowest difficulty, Default II (recommended power level: 4).Luckily, the Updraft Tome is simple to use. When you activate it, you will notice a circle appear on the ground surrounding you, anything inside the circle will get tossed into the air. So, once you find three Wind Callers, lure them close to you and then use your Updraft Tome to hit all three of them.
See the video below for more information.
Wooly Wisdom
The secret llama chamber can be found in the second and last level of the Howling Peaks DLC, Gale Sanctum. After finding a gold key and using the wind to open some doors, you will enter an open area with a waterfall. The entrance to the secret llama chamber can be found in this area. Inside, you will need to push a couple of buttons to cause the wind to knock a wheat block into a grinder, which will award you witha chest and your achievement.
See the video below for more information.
Giant Slayer
This is way simpler than it sounds, but requires more of that sweet RNG. Load up Gale Sanctum on an easy difficulty and progress to the third area of the level. Your objective will be to activate some beacons and doing so will wake up the Squall Golems in the room. The RNG needs to be on your side so that at least one Ravager spawns among the random enemy mobs roaming this area. Find one and lead them to the Squall Golems and defeat both of them within 5 seconds of each other.
See the video below for more information.
Herd Mentality
This requires that you have unlocked and equipped the following:
Tasty Bone artifact (Wolf)
Wonderful Wheat artifact (Llama)
Golem Kit artifact (Iron Golem)
Enchanted Grass artifact (Enchanted Sheep)
Soul Lantern (Soul Wizard)
Cave Crawler/Mystery/Spelunker armor (Bat)
Beenest/Mystery/Beehive armor or Bee Stinger weapon or Buzzy Nest artifact (Bee)
With all 4 of your pets equipped and active, defeat the Tempest Golem on Gale Sanctum. Be aware that your pets can die when summoned through an artifact, so you may want to play on an easy difficulty, Default IV (recommended power level: 16) or only spawn them all in once the Tempest Golem's health is low. See Taming The Storm for a strategy to defeating the Tempest Golem.
Post Post-Apocalypse
Apocalypse Plus difficulty is a new difficulty setting that has been added with the Howling Peaks DLC. You will need to gear up and head back to Obsidian Pinnacle, the final level of the main game, and beat it on Apocalypse Plus 5 difficulty (recommended power level: 120).
Dress For Success
You will need to unlock and equip Emerald armor, through the same RNG and means that you unlock any other piece of armor in the DLC. Then you will need a Daily Trial III to be available. The daily trials rotate, so a Daily Trial III is not available everyday. Now, simply play through a Daily Trial III on any difficulty with you Emerald armor equipped.
See the video below for more information.
Repeat Customer
You will need to unlock and equip armor with the Death Barter enchantment. Next, level that enchantment to max level, costs 9 enchantment points. Head into any level on a challenging, but not impossible difficulty for your power level.
You should notice an emerald counter in the top left corner of the screen. This keeps track of the emeralds you have collected and can use toward Death Barter. At max level, using Death barter will cost 50 emeralds. So, collect enough emerald sand then allowthe mobs to kill you. On the last hit, instead of dying, Death Barter will automatically use 50 emeralds and replenish your health. Rinse and repeat one more time in the same playthrough to earn your achievement.
See the video below for more information.
