How to unlock the Gemologist achievement

    You need all the following colored cards in order to unlock this achievement:

    Gold
    Emerald
    Sapphire
    Ruby
    Amethyst
    Heat Check
    Diamond
    Pink Diamond (95-96 OVR)
    Galaxy Opal (97-98 OVR)
    Dark Matter (99 OVR)

    Dark Matter cards are usually the hardest and most expensive to get when they first are released (which as of 2/23/22, there's 3 available in packs and 1 available if you collect over 3000 cards). However, over time more and more will be obtainable, whether it's through packs or in game challenges or locker codes.

    EDIT: Season 5 has packs with Dark Matter cards and the Level 40 reward is a dark matter card.

    Quick note if you are already going for the achievements in both games:
    If you obtain a Dark Matter card (or any 1 type of card that you're missing) on the Xbox Series X/S version, you'll unlock the achievement there but it will not auto unlock on the Xbox One version. If you want to unlock the achievement on the Xbox One version as well, move the card out of your collection to your auctions on the XBX/S version. Then, load up the Xbox One version and go back to your auctions and add the card back into your collection. The achievement should unlock then. This should also work vice versa if you get it on the XB1 first.

    drownedLTspeirsJust to add a random bit of info, I logged in today and the achievement popped randomly. Took me a minute to realize Kyrie Irvings dynamic rating card got boosted to a 99 overall dark matter (he scored a career high 60 points in yesterdays game)and that counted for this achievement. I checked the auction house and his card is selling for way cheaper than any other dark matter currently available, so just a possible way to get this cheevo now for anyone interested.

    mossfan563You're missing something then because you should unlock it after you get the last type of card you need.

    Supastar1980It auto unlocked for me when I installed the Xbox One Version after I got the achievement for the Series X/S version without having to move my Dark Matter card or any other card in fact it was the 1st achievement I got when I started up the game
