This Fatal Claw guide only covers achievements that require a specific method to unlock. I don’t go into detail about achievements that unlock naturally during normal gameplay.
One important thing before starting like for the blue walls and Black Spirit Husk, I need to equip it, go to White Mire, and talk to White Spirit Kurtz. After upgrading it to White Spirit Husk, I can break the blue walls.
Specific Methods
Curiosity Killed the Cat
Uncover the secret hidden in the Mirror Chamber. “Curiosity killed the cat. But… a cat has nine lives.”
After drinking Adrian’s Tea from Lara in Aurora Village, I go to the Mirror Chamber and kill myself while the tea effect is active.
He Was an Excellent Assistant
Collect all Aisare’s Stone Shards, deliver them to Iedart, and help complete her research.
There are 8 shards marked on the map, but 2 of them are held by NPCs.
- I talk to Isaac on the left side of The Wolf Gate.
- I defeat Sneak at the station on the right side of Transport Dock.
If I don’t remember where they are, the red markers on the map show the NPC locations.
The End of the Illusion
Defeat Sorron and put an end to his long-held ambitions.
After delivering all 10 shards, the locked door in Black Spirit Spring below The Wolf Gate opens. I just follow the story from there.
What Remains
Restore the damaged Silver Claw using the brooch left behind by Grande.
I return to Origin Laboratory, follow the story, and restore the Silver Claw in the Restoration Chamber.
Where the Black Current Ends
Reach the Aphotic Marsh.
The path to Aphotic Marsh opens after I restore the Silver Claw.
The End of the Black Calamity
Use the Silver Claw to seal Kurtz once more and cut off the source of contamination threatening the underworld.
I defeat Kurtz.
Only Available After a Return
Memory Collector
Obtain a total of 20 Memory Fragments.
The End of a Long Mission
Purify an infected hero using the power of the Silver Claw.
After defeating any one of Mirkam, Irbes, Sommar, or Saemo, I purify them.
The Light Has Faded
Reach the ending where Kisha loses all hope.
I defeat Odz without defeating Kurtz and without defeating Cain in the Hydraulic Engine Room.
Note: This ending does not trigger a Return. It sends me back to the main menu.
The King’s Shield
Use Ortrinde to protect the fallen Kisha from the infected.
I defeat Odz without defeating Kurtz, but I do defeat Cain in the Hydraulic Engine Room.
Note: In this easter-egg mode, the Return happens automatically, and I cannot collect other items along the way.
Time to Rise Again
Cure someone using the Infection Cure.
After a Return, I defeat Murant, which seals him. I can then craft AZSR-01 by using Jibanam Tree Sap at the machine in the left room.
I use it to cure any one of Ain, Nia, or Carbo.
Note: If I’m going for 100% achievements, I don’t recommend curing anyone immediately. I take the second Jibanam Tree Sap, marked as a treasure chest at the top of the Jibanam Tree, Return again, and only then cure someone.
Heroes’ Repose
Purify Mirkam, Irbes, Sommar, and Saemo in a single playthrough.
After obtaining the restored Silver Claw, I defeat and purify Mirkam, Irbes, Sommar, and Saemo.
If I don’t remember their locations, the red markers show them on the map.
Recalibration
Reset the Claw to recover the Kannium you’ve used.
I pay 20 Memory Fragments to Skyle in Aurora Village.
Gatorware Rookie
Deliver information collected from the Archive to Max 4 times.
After purifying Mirkam, Irbes, Sommar, and Saemo, and learning that Iedart is Enma, their information gets added.
After that, I simply kill every enemy I encounter until their analysis is complete.
This Settles My Debt
With Cain’s help, open the path to Sorron’s Archive.
- I first defeat Cain in the Hydraulic Engine Room. The battle in Strigine Shrine does not count.
- After delivering all 10 shards and learning that Iedart is Enma, the locked door in Black Spirit Spring below The Wolf Gate opens. I go there to trigger the scene where Enma imprisons Cain.
- I equip the Black Spirit Husk, go to White Mire, and talk to White Spirit Kurtz to obtain the White Spirit Husk. I then break the blue wall upward in Black Mire to rescue him.
- I complete an ending where both Ortrinde and Cain are present, which puts me into easter-egg mode.
- I talk to Cain at the front gate, then go to Sorron’s Archive to trigger the story.
- After completing that character’s route, I meet Kisha again.
The King’s Return
Reach the time guided by the Clockhand Stone.
I obtain the Blue Clockhand Stone in Sorron’s Archive, then go to Shrine of Ancestors and inspect the Wheel of Fate to insert it.
I attack the new lever to switch timelines and Return to that timeline.
Note: This only triggers a special ending, not a full playthrough. To save time, I enter this ending directly to fill the “Another Name” section of the in-game Stone of Narrative, then return to the main menu and continue normally.
Only Available After Two Returns
Leave No One Behind
Cure Ain, Nia, and Carbo in a single playthrough.
My carried items persist, so I need to make sure I didn’t cure anyone during the second Return and save them for the third Return.
I obtain the third Jibanam Tree Sap, marked as a treasure chest at the top of the Jibanam Tree, then turn all three into AZSR-01 at the Origin Laboratory and use them to cure Ain, Nia, and Carbo.
Note: Nia requires me to unseal any 2 sanctuaries before she can be cured. One is not enough, while three will cause her to die.
If I don’t remember their locations, the blue markers show them on the map.
