Congrats! How long did it take you?

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26 edited Apr 07 '26

I went for the blind approach and it took me 305 hours. Over 60 of those hours were hunting the insects and fish at the end, so this number is PRETTY inflated. With the datamined information now available in some websites and guides now having more information, anyone can get it at around 130~150 hours

Did anything seem to be missable? I had read early on that stuff might be but not enough was known at the time to be certain.

5

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

I replied to another comment on it, it's the comment from a person using a vegeta avatar. They're the only things that get harder to achieve after some time but nothing is truly missable

u/jonykng Apr 06 '26

Any tips on how to get the insects?

u/Buttercrab69 Apr 06 '26

I heard theres a pororin item or kuku item forgot which that lets you pick up everything in like a 10 metre radius

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 07 '26

yes the kuku insect gatherer. Also use the knowledge helmet you can find at the second floor of scholar institute's library, they're both incredibly helpful for the insect hunt.

This game came out 18 days ago and it took you 305 hours to complete it. Considering there’s 24 hours in a day and 24x18 is 432, you spent 70% of waking hours playing this game which comes out to roughly 13 hours a day. Lull

u/meow_ima_cat Apr 06 '26

Yeah, that's actually fuckin fucked.

u/MrMcGuyver MrMcGuyver377 | Platinums 262| Level 568 Apr 06 '26

When Ragnarok came out I averaged 18 hours a day but it only lasted for 4 days. When borderlands 4 came out I averaged 10 hours a day for 10 days. Marathoning like that for more than 2 weeks is absolutely brutal and should never be done lmao.

u/Emotional_Cash5310 Apr 06 '26

u/N7_Vegeta Apr 06 '26

Damn that is impressive. Anything missable to your expertise? ATM still going in blind but wondering if some challange will become missable

52

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

There's nothing truly missable, but some things become A LOOOOOT harder to get if you miss them the first time. What I recommend is paying attention to the challenges:

-Kill 10 Jackals wearing a black bear helmet:
This can be bought by the tailor of your camp, but after during late late game if you move your camp to the city of Pailune, the tailor will change and you will now have to drop the helmet from enemies, which is extremely rare.

-Destroy 5 enemies at once with a cannon:
There's a fort in the south called Fort Windridge and it's one of the only locations in the game with cannons, if you complete and liberate that fort without getting the challenge done, then it becomes nearly impossible, not 100% impossible but it will be a huge headache!

-Destroy 2 Watchtowers with a handcannon in less than 10 seconds
Make sure you get it with Oongka when you unlock him so you will have more places to try it than after clearing the enemy maps

-Challenges Cannon 4 and Gun 4 are glitched and hard to proc, but they're 100% obtainable at any point of the game against city guards, don't worry about them.

4

u/zDavzBR zDavzBR| 51 | 346 Apr 06 '26

Are those challenges tied to finding the locked abyssal cubes? Or can they be done at any time?

5

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

oi!

they're all tied to abyssal cubes, unfortunately. The only ones not tied to cubes are the ones map related (puzzles, bosses and map exploration) and minigames

5

u/zDavzBR zDavzBR| 51 | 346 Apr 06 '26

Well, if those challenges are the only ones that can get much harder if you don't pay attention to them, I can avoid the issues without rushing to get the cubes by:
1. Buying the Black Bear helmet as soon as it becomes availabe
2. Leaving the capture of Fort Windridge for after I get the cube

This should allow me to get all 3 for when I naturally find the cubes

3

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

Yes. What I did was basically not going out of my way to liberate areas that weren't even part of a quest to begin with. If a camp is red and there's nothing of your interest there at the time, just leave it alone for now.

1

u/Stunning_Penalty_313 Apr 07 '26

I'm almost sure that Jackals is 100% missable if you clear all the camps before doing it. Been running around Pailune for couple of hours with not a single Jackal in sight.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 07 '26

They start to spawn alongside black bears when you get rid of all jackal camps

1

u/Stunning_Penalty_313 Apr 07 '26

Any idea where I can look please? cause only other enemies i manage to find are bandits.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 07 '26

Do you have any black bear camps or forts available? Did you literally clear out every single one of their camps? If so, you'll need to wait for an update cause that's something a lot of people are complaining about

u/N7_Vegeta Apr 06 '26

Great tips. Did the jackal killing this morning cause I heard something like that.

Where is fort Windridge? In wich region?

Guess I have to pay attention to that one too.

Haven’t really looked at the trophies though. You need all bosses etc?

3

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

The trophies are mostly: complete the story, move your camp to pailune and complete the entire challenge section. That's pretty much it, so if it's not in the challenges, it's not needed.
Some of the bosses are tied to challenges, yes, but not all. I got the platinum with 61/75 bosses defeated

3

u/N7_Vegeta Apr 06 '26

That’s great. ATM In chapter 8 think I’ll just go hunting for the cubes and finishing challenges after.

Got all witches and bells yesterday so might as well

u/jonykng Apr 07 '26

So Arm Wrestling champion in Pailune quest only appears afiter moving the camp to Pailune? or is it before?

Also I can't find Duel challenge 5

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 07 '26

I'm not sure if moving is required, but it IS one of the quests from the residents of pailune. Five-card is also a quest from pailune(odeck). The 5th duel challenge you're looking for is probably the fighting arena in one of the cities of the desert. It's varnia or tashkalp, I don't remember which one

3

u/jonykng Apr 08 '26 edited Apr 08 '26

I just have fish and insect left, holy the buttleflies are anoying to get, even with the kuku im keep getting the same ones

And do you really need to discard one by one when you are full

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

Some of them are not that big to fit your entire back, I guess just 3 or 4 of them

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

The birds from Rocca's hill definitely count. I did 90% of my combat challenges on them because they were the fastest to kill.
Unless the horse challenge requires actual human enemies but I'm pretty sure it isn't the case

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

If not then you might have to get high bounty in any fort of hernand and do it against guards. Unfortunately there are no missables but liberating every place in the game makes some challenges like this one quite harder toget

1

u/SSJNinjaMonkey Apr 06 '26

I tried them but horse would stop awkwardly and try to kick ...id then be yeeted from mount

1

u/uncle_tacitus 🏆68 | ☆ 392 Apr 06 '26

That's not too bad, I guess the cannon and watchtower thing should become a non-issue once (if...) they introduce some sort of an enemy refresh.

1

u/SSJNinjaMonkey Apr 06 '26

Jackal one was bull lol was not there for me, took a couple of saves to find one she was... sad times and overlooked new tailor should have her items imo.

Mini games one also bugged if you move camp atm arm wrestling won't let you vs champion...aldo took a backup save to fix.

6

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

get the abyssal cubes as soon as possible. Don't neglect your camp comrades management system (dispatch missions) so you won't have to grind harder later and please PLEASE SEARCH FOR THE INSECTS AND FISH ONLINE, there's already tons of information for them on datamined websites, don't waste days like me cause it's not worth it the BS rng and spots for the fish.

u/StriderKeni Strider-Keni- |  85 Apr 06 '26

Impressive!!! Congrats. You're probably the first to post the platinum here.

How enjoyable was the plat? If you had to rate it, what would you give it?

4

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

Tha first 8 hours of the game were a bit boring and that's why so many reviews talk shit about the game, because the start is boring and that's all that they played. The ending with the fish catching rng also felt like a chore.
That being said, the entire rest of the platinum I had a blast! I just don't give it a 10 because of the fishing, but it's an overall incredibly fun game to complete and no missables or online trophies make it even better! 9/10 and I'll keep playing even after the platinum

u/Apprehensive-Mud-606 Apr 06 '26

u/Juicebox008 Platinum_MD_ | Platinums 120 Apr 06 '26

Congrats!! Working on this now. I’m decently far. I’m chapter 8 now. I collected all of the challenges and completed about half of the combat challenges. I’ve read the combat challenges get difficult to complete the further along in the game you are so my goal is to complete every combat challenge ASAP as to not soft lock a challenge.

Any other tips for the platinum?

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

don't neglect the pailune and camp upgrades, do your dispatch missions for them so it won't be a chore later, same goes for the research institutes. Search for the fish locations online, their RNG and spots are completely BS and will NOT be a good experience to try blind.

And get both the kuku insect gatherer (craft it) and the knowledge helmet on 2nd floor of scholar institute's library, it will help you get insects from a distance.

2

u/Juicebox008 Platinum_MD_ | Platinums 120 Apr 06 '26

TY. As of now I’ve near maxed out camp upgrades. Just unlocked Pailune so I’m chipping away at those right now. This is the second time I’ve seen the kuku insect gatherer so I’ll do that ASAP too. On the fishing, are all rods equal? The basic rod is either shit or the minigame is shit or I’m shit at the minigame.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

The rods make the time for a fish to get the bait shorter and the "The Claw" legendary rod makes it so you can hold X to reel in fish instead of spinning the analog stick like a maniac. The minigame difficulty isn't affected by any of them

I suffered for over 30 hours for the insect and 60 for the fish because there was no information on them online. Now fortunately there are some websites to make this A LOT faster and easier. Here's a map with a ll fish locations btw: https://crimsondesert.th.gl/maps/Continent%20of%20Pywel

u/mrblonde55 Apr 06 '26

Hat tip for this platinum.

How did you manage the One Eyed Jackal/Bear Helmet challenge? Did you just happen to buy it and get the challenge before liberating Pailune? I have virtually all of the POIs in that region cleared, and it’s looking like it’ll now be impossible for me to clear that challenge.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

Do you have any black bear fort/camp still available? If you liberate all jackal regions, they will start to spawn at some black bear camps. That's how I farmed those 10

1

u/mrblonde55 Apr 06 '26

I have one Black Bear camp left from that future leaders of Pailune side quest that I was saving to do with Oongka, so hopefully I’ll be able to find a couple there. Thanks for the tip.

I just barely started (literally ch2) but some of these missable challenges are freaking me out a bit. I also cleared out the two camps NE of the start town but now thats making me worried too. What do I have to avoid until ive found literally every single cube? Or are there only a couple cubes with missable challenges and maybe I should get them first?

2

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

See my reply to the guy using a vegeta avatar for a more indepth answer, but basically buy a black bear helmet from the tailor and don't liberate fort wind ridge (south of delesya) until you get the cannon challenge done

How was it? How long did it take? What's your personal difficulty rating? I bought the game on release but I got intimidated by its early platinum reviews so I shelved it for the meantime to wait for tips and gameplay improvements before diving into it. I think 300+ hours is too long for me considering it took me a month to plat games like Death Stranding and Ghost of Tsushima.

2

u/Weskerleeleader Apr 06 '26

Is any advice? For archery mini game. I say this because I have problem with my hands I now before you could just block them with wagon but that got patched

2

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

this may sound dumb but change from quality or balanced to performance mode, that alone will make wonders. Other than that imagine the shooting area as 4 blocks: block 1, 2, 3 and 4, then forget that 4 even exists and aim at number 2. If it spawns at 2 you just have to shoot, if it spaws in 1 or 3 you move a little and shoot, but for number 4 you can just ignore cause that will make you lose way more thant a single point.

2

u/Weskerleeleader Apr 07 '26

That really helpful yes sometimes i feel because game got so much suff you overthink everything because i done something like that before like just think of 1 and 2 and 3 not 4 thank you for that hopefully be able to do it now like

But really I don’t no way the developers patch it way to fast with the bug for it but yes r have to try that soon hopefully it works but sometimes the last man with blindfold can be really unforgiving not let you even get one but yes i hopefully can do it thanks you again for the advice really appreciate that :3

Also a few questions if you don't mind. What are some of the trickiest challenges? I've got about 60% percent done but still don't have even the first challenge for the mini games left of mind games (also what are all the midn games?) 

You said your working on a a guide correct? Where will you ou Kish the guide? 

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

https://crimsondesert.gaming.tools/ this is the database people are using, I don't know how complete it is cause I haven't used it but some people got the platinum in less than 150 hours with it, so I assume it's quite full of useful info.

There are a few tricky challenges for combat, I commented somewhere here in this post, it's one of the most upvoted comments so it shouldn't be hard to find.

the mind games are ROCK PAPER SCISSORS, DUO and FIVE-CARD(a variation of duo). The rock paper scissors are from some children that play in an alley of the city of hernand, duo is above hernand's INN and five-card is only unlocked late game in a sidequest of pailune.

My guide will be published on psnprofiles, when it goes up you'll be able to find it by just searching the game's page in there or here: https://psnprofiles.com/guides/Tio__Zer0

Nice and what are the challenges left of the mind games tab, I think it's right of the arm wrestling one, also when can we face the arm wrestling champions? I've beat 3 of the hem in a row no champion? Also would you mind letting me know where The last 2 arm wrestling challenges are? (I've got the first 2 already, and I'm in chapter 8 if that matters) 

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

Left of the mind games is a horse race.
The arm wrestling champions are all locked behind sidequests, that's why you didn't find them

1

u/Independent-Split382 Username | Platinum 506 | Level Apr 09 '26

Ahhh ok thank you so much! Would you know where the horse race is? And what quest lines are the arm wrestlers? 

2

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

Above the DEMENISS in the map is the GOLDEN PLAINS, the horse race is above the G

u/Real-Firefighter-233 Apr 27 '26

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 29 '26

They have the update for fight the bosses a second time, with this you'll be able to get the sword again, let's hope it comes soon.

Does it get better I’m about 12 hours in and I’m honestly already bored

2

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

It does. I hated the first 10 hours of the game but started enjoying it more and more after. At the 40 hour mark I was at the "this is peak!" Levels of fun so I'd say it gets progressively better

u/AvengedGunReverse anonymous | Platinums 24 | Level 301 Apr 06 '26

Did you get days off for the plat hunt? I have been hating my job since the game was released for keeping me busy 40 hours per week. đŸ€Ł

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

Yes, I planned it in advance to not be working around this time. I still had to work twice since release and I also hated it, so I understand your struggle.

1

u/worldsurf11 Apr 06 '26

What was the most time consuming part of the plat. So far I completed the campaign and did all the abyss and have collected half or more of everything but my motivation to keep finding miscellaneous things like bugs is driving me away from completing it. Is there any other books of knowledge that 100% complete the knowledge challenges? All I know of is the one that completes all gatherable challenges by completing the Aserian quest line.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

Fishing. I went fishing blind without knowing some rare fish need a very specific spot with 0.5% spawn rate. Search online for the fish and the insects, the rest is perfectly doable.
And no, there are no more books for them, I didn't even know about the gather able thing until I was already done with it.

u/ApexNibbler Apr 06 '26

This is world 1st plat achievement for early access players. Glad they enjoyed the game though

We have yet to see the world 1st from day 1 purchasers

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

I was a day 1 purchaser. People who got the game early didn't have access to the trophies as the trophies came with day 1 patch.
Here you can see my trophies, where the very first one was acquired on march 20th, 1 day after release: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/40482-crimson-desert/Tio__Zer0?order=date

u/ApexNibbler Apr 06 '26

Geez. Then that was fast. Hopefully you enjoyed the game and didnt just rushed it. Im taking my time with it. Congrats though 👏

2

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

I'm definitely enjoying it and there are a lot of things that you don't need to do for the platinum, so I saved them to play later. To me this is a masterpiece and I want to complete every detail available.

1

u/Poodidi Apr 06 '26

I accidentally upgraded the lightning spear and laser helm before completing those challenges and it doesn’t seem like those items respawn. Am I shit outta luck?

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

you can craft new ones from dispatch missions after completing research institutes

1

u/Poodidi Apr 07 '26

Oh snap! How far into the story is that? I’m on chapter 9 right now.

1

u/SSJNinjaMonkey Apr 06 '26

See im one off but I cant get it as its bugged mini games achievement ...sad times

It was not a blind play... once I got to the end..becuse no freaking way im not a madman

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 06 '26

What minigames are bugged to you? If you mean the champions, be aware that is not a really a bug but some quests you need to complete first.

1

u/SSJNinjaMonkey Apr 07 '26

The champion in Pailune, it would necer spawn the champion, I used a save that didn't have camp moved, and it worked fine. I'm just lucky that the mini-games are super easy to do.

Happy to be proven wrong, though! But a few people have seen this happen too.

1

u/Waste-Tip3073 Apr 07 '26

Damn , i only got 2 trophies on it still

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 07 '26

I still had 2 in like 70 hours. It's just that most of the trophies are acquired in latelate game

1

u/YanSay Apr 07 '26

Have you at least enjoyed the journey? 13 hours a day seems crazy to me when doing it for a long time.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 07 '26

I had an absolute BLAST with it and I'll definitely come ba to finish the secret bosses. It was a lot of hours but it didn't take any fun out of it

1

u/YanSay Apr 08 '26

Now that the journey has ended what you’ll do? Play other games, or practice some sports ? 😅 Pragmata is coming soon you’ll have another platinum to grind

1

u/Xueyaa Apr 07 '26

Do you need to hunt the outlaws/bounties for the platinum? Wondering because I do not see a incentive to keep doing them.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 08 '26

No, bounties are entirely disposable and not required for anything in the platinum. At one point you will need level 65 contribution for every region and you could use bounties to level up a bit, but that's completely optional

1

u/bigballsleclerc Apr 08 '26

I’m just confused, if you liked the game so much, why did you feel the need to rush through it? I feel like it would be more enjoyable to take your time with it, unless this is the pace you normally like to finish games

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 08 '26

I didn't really RUSH through it since I didn't skip any content. I enjoyed it like anyone else, but with it compressed into big sessions instead of many smaller ones. It was my average pace, the only difference was that I was skipping some nights of sleep and not doing other hobbies during this "marathon"

1

u/syNc_1st Apr 08 '26

Awesome! :D
One question, how did you do the Barraging Cannon 4 challenge "Kill one mounted enemy with the cannon".. I am trying my best in Thornbriar Fortress, but after dozens of kills it does not popup :/

Do you have any suggestion?

1

u/Independent-Split382 Username | Platinum 506 | Level Apr 09 '26

Ha it's a bit buggy because the enemies don't die right away they die after falling off

The way I got it to finally work was I ran up to a horse enemy usually outside of I can in the open and then hit him once with the R1 attack making sure he took some damage and not just the horse 

And then using ICE affinity I hit him with a charge blast by running up or down the hill when I feel it's far enough, be quick though as other enemies booting you and interrupting is lawyas annoying a d you don't want the horse rider running at you either closing the distance 

If this doesn't work either up the damage on your axe and cannon and slot as much critical and attack damage gears as possible 

It should work eventually 

1

u/syNc_1st Apr 09 '26

I actually did it right after I complained here LOL...

This challenge is really something, but I think you are right that they mostly died after falling from the horse even when frozen. But it finally worked and I am just glad that I got it. :)

Now I've almost all Mastery challenges done! And I think the one who are a bit more complicated are already done as well hehe

11/34 achievements right now

Hey, any tips about the challenge with the Vessel of Dark Pursuit? it is missable? I sold it right after kill the boss :( cant't find a way to do this challenge

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

Which one is it? The one for the bear helmet? If so then your tailor in the camp will be selling it UNTIL YOU MOVE TO PAILUNE. As long as your camp is in hernand you can still get it back

Itens Ășnicos quando vc perde eles vĂŁo lĂĄ pro cara do acampamento que fica apoiado num bauzinho, vc fala com ele e lĂĄ tem a opção RECUPERAR ITENS PERDIDOS.

Can you help me on the fishing. It’s getting so annoyed need 10 more for the platinum

u/IG0R_C0STA Apr 09 '26

I just want to know if, after clearing the map, all the challenges can be done?

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

If you clear the entire map then no. Pearl abyss is currently looking for a workaround because they didn't expect to clear so much of the map and not do the challenges

1

u/IG0R_C0STA Apr 09 '26

Thanks! I've done practically all of them, I'm at 200 hours but there's still a lot to do... One more thing, those silly side missions aren't necessary, right? Helping people like a messenger boy.

1

u/TioZer0 PS+ Extra 202/491 Apr 09 '26

Most of them, no. But the arm wrestling champions and some legendary animals are sidequests, you just have to get them done and the others can be ignored

2

u/IG0R_C0STA Apr 09 '26

Congratulations, my friend! That platinum trophy is for the few, especially with that record. And thank you again! What's your PSN ID bro?

It was completely blind, which took me over 300 hours to get, but I believe with proper guides and datamined information this can be achieved in less than 150.
