Fallen Hero Rebirth Achievement Walkthrough Guide

This guide has the specific choices to make sure you get the achievement you want. I do recommend using other guides first, and once you’re done with those and there’s a complicated achievement that requires a specific stat% or something, and you don’t want to code dive, then check this guide out.

You don’t have to read the explanations in the achievement guides. I decided to put those just in case some people get curious why you need to pick certain choices and to explain my thought process when writing the guide for the specific achievement.

• I slowly raise the gun towards my mouth.

How It Should Be

Explanation: You need at least 35% daring, but you can’t have more than 65% daring. I accounted for all the choices that affects the daring%, both the ones that increases it, and the ones that reduces it. Like in chapter 09, for example. If you picked the “destroy the museum” debut choice in chapter 05, you could end up going overboard by chapter 09 because there were options there that increases the daring%. That’s why I made you pick “destroy the Sidestep exhibit” instead. Throughout chapter 01 – 07, my focus was increasing the daring%, and by chapter 08 – 09, that’s when we’ll start reducing the daring%.
Where It Unlocks: Chapter 09.

Chapter 01

• I shake my head vigorously. This is no time for memories.
• I focus on protecting the box with my own body.
• I smile threateningly; he should be afraid of me.
• I let him attack and wait for an opening.
• And yet, I can’t quite resist lingering inside her brain.
• What do I care? It’s not even my body.
• This is too important; I will go and collect it myself. It’s been years since I was in the paper, and I wore a mask back then.
• I pause to listen in and look at the devastation like everybody else.
• I will telepathically push him to escalate this confrontation further.
• This could easily escalate into a riot if I play my cards right.
• This was easier than I thought it would be.
• …who would have my back in a fight.
• …our fighting styles mesh very well together; we’re a formidable team.
• I’m a better fighter than I am a tactician, but…
• I risk myself to draw his fire, and Ortega can wait until ${he} has a chance for a clean attack.
• …l wish Ortega had been there so I could have beat ${him}.

Chapter 02

• “I just didn’t expect it to have anything to do with the Rangers.”I got too comfortable, and stopped hiding.

Chapter 04

• Nervous—there are so many things that could go wrong.

Chapter 09

• I will shut them down hard with a telepathic command.
• I play into their fear, making them cower before me.
• I will manipulate them into smashing all the exhibits. Hero hate is always useful.

(Herald Fight)

• I won’t tell him who I am—let the papers make up a name.
• He’s a hero, and I’m not. I’ll use that against him.
• No time to waste—I’ll just knock him out.

(Ortega Fight)

• I rely on speed—I should be faster than ${him}.

• This is dangerous. I will change the subject to Dr. Mortum instead of me.
• I am a bit curious to see if ${mhe} will kiss me or not.

Looking into the Abyss

Explanation: This is going to be more technical because I genuinely don’t know how else to explain it. You need to go to the scene “armorfighta”, which you do by not having either speed or strength as the suit enhancements. And then you need > 75% subterfuge (Subtle Manipulations).

(Lady Argent Fight)

• Better use this time to prepare an ambush.
• I want to see if I can fight her.

In the Name of Science

Explanation: You need the suit enhancement “strength” so you can take the sample, and the suit enhancement “telepathy” will make sure you manage to defeat Lady Argent. You also need it so she doesn’t catch up to you and gain an advantage in the fight.
Where It Unlocks: Chapter 09.

Unbreakable

Explanation: You need the hidden variable “win” set as true in the fight with Lady Argent. That requires > 70% daring and fighter instead of tactician.

• I feel great—I won, after all.

(Lady Argent Fight)

• …fight you for real.
• Even so, I will be slow and careful.

Scarface

Explanation: You need the hidden variable “facial_scar” set as true, which you do by messing up the fight with Lady Argent in the sewers and robbing the gala, so you can have the hidden variable “money”, which is also needed, since that’s the only way Lady Argent slashes your face, by going back to try and grab the money when you attempt to flee the fight with her.
Where It Unlocks: Chapter 10.

Chapter 01

• I’m a better tactician than I am a fighter, but…

Chapter 05

• …enhanced speed and jump jets.

• Robbing the gala will give me the funds I need.

Chapter 09

• I fill the bag fast, no time to waste. I want to get everything.

(Herald Fight)

• I’ll make this painful; I want him to suffer.

(Ortega Fight)
[MULTIPLE CHOICE]
If you have > 50% daring, choose this:

• I’d better be cautious—don’t want to risk moving in too fast.

If you have < 50% daring, choose this:

• I’ll press my advantage, moving in fast and hard.

[END MULTIPLE CHOICE]

• No—it is too risky. I’ll keep this as an ace in the hole.
• I need to end this fast.
• I let the ${ortega_gender} say what ${he} has to say.

(Lady Argent Fight)

• I can’t draw this fight out—it’s all or nothing.
• Even so, I will be slow and careful.
• No way. I worked too hard for this!

Damocles

Explanation: In the scene where you go into Lady Argent’s head again, there are two ways the “try to stay aloft” option can go. Either to the scene “fly” or “rend”. We need to go to “fly”, but for that, either you have > 60% subterfuge (Subtle Manipulations), or > 30% argent_friendship and < 20% villany. I decided to go for > 60% subterfuge stat instead because I already wrote a guide in an earlier achievement for that. I didn’t want to have to code dive again and write a guide for < 20% villainy.

Voyeur

Explanation: In the scene where you go into Lady Argent’s head again, there are two ways the “dive deep” option can go. Either to the scene “amf” or “water”. We need to go to “amf”, but for that, either you have > 60% force (Strength of Mind), or > 30% argent_friendship. Getting > 30% argent_friendship is way easier, so I went for that instead.

Unscrupulous

Explanation: In the scene where you go into Lady Argent’s head again, there are two ways the “try to stay aloft” option can go. Either to the scene “fly” or “rend”. We need to go to “fly”, but for that, either you have > 60% subterfuge (Subtle Manipulations), or > 30% argent_friendship and < 20% villany.

Chapter 09
(Lady Argent Fight)

• I will hurry up in order to get out of here fast.

Spoils of War

Explanation: You need the hidden variable “argent_cape” set as true in the fight with Lady Argent in the sewers. There are three ways to do it, but the easiest one (for me to write because I already have the guide for the needed stat of it) is setting the hidden variable “argent_ace_used” as true, which you do when you set an ace when going inside Lady Argent’s head (long story short, you need > 60% subterfuge [Subtle Manipulations] for that).
Where It Unlocks: Chapter 11.

• I will hurry up in order to get out of here fast.
• Better use this time to prepare an ambush.
• I will use my telepathy to bring her down.

Nemesis

Explanation: You need to have “impressed” as your villain relationship with Lady Argent at the end of the sewers scene. To do that, you need > 69% on a hidden variable called “argentfight”. From what I can see, you need the hidden variable “win” set as true because it gives +20 argentfight, which you do by having > 70% daring and the “fighter” variable instead of “tactician”.
