How to unlock the Forbidden Shield achievement in Army of Ruin - Definitive Guide
The no movement achievements are best attempted towards the end of the game when you have a good amount of upgrades unlocked.
Some recommendations are:
Damage - 10
Fire rate - 10
Pickup range - 10 (max)
Luck - 10 (max)
Health - 10
Regen - 10
Weapon cap/ trinket cap/ projectiles - 2 (max)
Favorites - minimum 2
A few rerolls and banishments to help with the rng.
Best character:
Selina heal active ability, thorns passive, very useful starting item Necromancer Gauntlets.
Favorite trinkets:
Armor of Thorns (earth) - try to max it out
Soul contained (dark) - extra lives, ensures you can kill the boss, upgrade to at least 3
Weapons to pick:
Mighty Punch - try to evolve this and Necromancer Gauntlets
Sparksword - aoe
Toxic Stench - aoe
Wolf's Fang - aoe
Homemade Explosives
(Promethean Flames)
Trinkets to consider:
You need wind so Enchanted Harp (pickup range) or Spark Belt (Aoe damage)
Buckler (ice) - very good when upgraded
Anything that increases your DPS - Heavy Greaves (earth) is a good choice
Seal of Purity (earth) - damage to bosses and elites, plus heal on killing them
Emerald Ring (light) - if you want to infuse light it allows you to cast the Heal ability more often
A setup similar to this will allow you to collect all the xp stones as well as the mini-boss chests as they will die right above you. (this is why thorns is essential). Some mini-bosses on Shrine 1 might run past you but thankfully you only need to reach 10 mins there.

Same as your other guide, this says no damage not no movement. Still, followed your basic setup and got this no problem, only used one resurrection in the end.
