How to unlock the Gate Hacker achievement

  • Removed Gamer
    Gamer has been removed
    When you have an option to bash a gate, door, or chest, bash it. If you select the lockpick or spell options, rather than bash, you will miss this achievement.

    A few doors don't have a bash option. Don't worry, if you don't have the bash option, it's ok to open it via another means.

    You do not need to go out of your way to hunt down all the gates, doors, and chests. Just use it on the ones you were going to interact with anyways.

    If you've followed these instructions, the achievement will unlock immediately after

    Brainiac427Reading this prior to playing the game was very helpful. All I did was bash. Thanks!

    Kugarea small note: intelligence give you extra turns for the bash mini-game, but maybe you don't wanna spent a single point for that skill... and you don't have to raise your intelligence, because you can bash every door even without a single intelligence point - you just need some more luck for the harder ones.
    but there is a small trick, that make the mini-game just a little bit easier.

    if you have an accessoires that raise your intelligence, go to the blacksmith in verloren and upgrade it... upgrades raise the skill points... now just keep the item in your inventory and only equip it, just before you bash through a door and unequip it afterwards. (except you wanna wear it all the time for some reason)

    I just made this achievement. This achievement appears after killing the final form of last boss (Gorgon) !! (NOT AFTER BASHING LAST DOOR ! ) if you bashed through every door,gate or chest in the game. Last doors to bash are after entering the Burning Walkway ( Sealed Doors )

    Just while playing through the game, kill every enemy, loot every chest, use RB to look on the map where is the dark spot so you know where you weren't. I had whole map fully discovered before i went to the final boss.

    Hope it'l help you :-) ( sorry for my english, was writing in a hurry xD )

    Edit: It has been verified by multiple TA members that you do not have to bash every door, gate, chest in the game. Just make sure to always choose the Bash mini-game on any you encounter when Bash is an option.

    For those with low intelligence (in the game), i find this strategy to be useful in being able to bash without running out of turns:

    Try to avoid using up turns by matching doors directly. Instead focus on matching up gems around existing doors, and allow them to match up as a side effect of matching others.
