How to unlock the Foehammer achievement in Baldur's Gate 3 - Definitive Guide

**The guide below no longer works due to being patched in the latest update patch 6 but I will test if the save still works **

** The save loading at the end no longer works, it requires the host to long rest**

So the easiest way of doing this achievement is having someone who has a save at the end of the game and finishing it with them, thanks for meep3rmanXD for helping test this. (not sure if you needed 2 tavs through out the game tho)

but if you want to play through the acts then feel free to use the guide below.

For anyone struggling with this achievement and just wants to get it done, it’s possible to use the speedrun pc tactics to clear through honour mode only real advice I can give is to save scum if you attempt this run.

Act 1 -

Act 2 -

Act 3 -

Good Luck 👍

Just takes patience unfortunately, just mashing the up and A button and just standing where I did, if you still have bad trouble doing it hit me up and I’ll run you through it, but you will still have to do the cat brain jump

I can confirm you need two Tavs in your party before the boat to the final mission, otherwise a coop partner cannot join (requires a long rest so joining player can create a new Tav which does not work in the final mission).

If anybody has a save and can help me out I’d really appreciate it. I still have another two playthroughs to do to mop things up and don’t really want to play through for a 5th time 😅

@blackstockc make sure you talk to Withers in camp at the end to initiate the final cut scene

Followed the speedrun guide, have made it all the way to the final boss, but everytime I try to detonate all the fireworks it turns my Xbox off. So close to finishing it’s unreal

Either the patch worked for me, or remembering that I can turn performance mode off worked, one of the two

Just a minor note that might help some. You can still "save scrub" in Honour Mode. You just hit the home button and exit the game. Then reload it and load the save. As long as you haven't wiped and gotten the prompt to end the playthrough it works.

I don't know what's happened. I completed my Honor run today.

But when I hit the end, the Tactician achievement popped but the Honor one did not?

I reloaded the save and re-did the final fight again but still no Honor pop?

I notice there's a bug when you are on the main menu and hover over the "Continue" option, it says the save is in Tactician mode.

But when you go to manually load your save it says it is an Honor mode save file?

Is anyone else having this issue?

@Reelbiggerfish that's discouraging - I noticed this display bug as well after I started my honour run. I hadn't even left the Nautiloid but from main menu the "Continue" option says tactician, load game file says Honour. :3

I ended up doing an entire new run again and even though the menu bug was there again still, the achievement did pop luckily for me the second time

I just had the same thing happen, did honor mode and only Tactician popped :(. The load for the game says Honor, but the continue says tactician...horrible bug

Another thing that may be causing it not to pop.

If at any point during your run, your main character is downed, obviously the run is not over because you can just use one of your other characters to revive your main.

But I think the achievement is voided if your main is downed at any point.

@Reelbuggerfish Why do you say that? Makes no sense at all. Of course it might be a glitch, but still makes no sense since getting your character down is something incredibly mundane in the game. If it was a proper death it would make more sense. Would still be a bug obviously, but would at least make some sense as to why it might glitch the achievement since you have to go over an entire procedure to revive a character.

All I know is that I completed Honour Mode once and the achievement didn't pop, but I honestly can't remember if my main died at any point.

The second time I did it all again, I made sure my main character never was downed at any point ever, and the achievement popped!

So it is possible that's what is causing it not to pop for some people 🤷‍♂️

Wanted to add for anyone curious, completing the game on Honor mode earns the Achievement for doing so, as well as for Tactician. Just did this myself.

Can confirm what ViolentSavuor said above. I hit the dashboard to reload on some rough fights. But never waited until I saw the game over screen. I always did it before my turn was over. Still got the achievement at the end.

The bug on the main menu is always there from the start. You want to check in-game instead. Load up a save, hit start, and check the difficulty there. If it still says Honor Mode you should be good. If it says "custom" it means you hit a game over screen at least once and that run can't be used anymore.

Also want to mention that you can skip the final fight and get the achievement by:

I had a flawless run at this and as soon as my sorcerer opened the door to the brainstem and the cut scene began it immediately popped up that my party had died.

Messing up and getting killed would be one thing, but everyone was alive and near full health. Only thing I can think is I was half the stairs ahead with my sorcerer and the distance somehow caused a bug. The same level of distance was fine on my first play through.

Really don't want to go through it all again only for another glitch. If some kind soul has a save I'd appreciate it.

If you get a party wipe, (so all of your party member dies) your save will be "marked" (but the game won't tell you) and you cannot get this achievement. (even you you replace your "marked" save with an ealier save)
One workaround for automic saves (The game does these when you try to Alt+F4 or close it with Task Manager)
I found is "Sign out" on Windows.
If you ever get into technical trouble (for example a gamebreaking bug), just select Sign out from the Start menu.
(Be careful because this will close all your applications and will sign out of your PC account.)
Sign back in and you can load your last save.

In order not to start the game over again in case of death in battle, realizing that death is inevitable, we exit the game; when continuing, there will be a last save without resetting valor.

Backup saves. Help came from unexpected places. From Larian. In the main menu, register an account with Larian. Multi-platform transfer of saves is becoming available to us. It is included in the menu. Before a difficult battle, turn it on (IMPORTANT!!!: do not forget to turn it off immediately after, like autosaves), saves are saved to the Larian server.
In case of a failure, we delete saves from the console. NOT through the game menu, but through removal from the console menu. We turn on the multiplatform, the saves are loaded.

I completed the game on valor this way. Closed the game when there was a risk of a wipe. They didn't give me a trophy. The difficulty in the game itself was "Valor", and in the main menu - "Tactics"

I also closed the game a couple of times, it crashed several times, and Tactics was in the menu. But the achievement fell

If you did not manage to close the game before the death of your squad and saw a corresponding message in the game. Feel free to start playing again, changing saves will not help. To check whether valor has disappeared, load a save, press pause and select “difficulty” from the menu. If it says “valor” then you are lucky, you closed the game on time. If not, you will see a "selectable difficulty" menu.

In order not to start the game again if all the characters die, you can divide the squad and always keep one in the camp, so if the main pack of 3 characters dies, they can be resurrected from the withered one for a small fee. Difficulties can only arise on bosses. To pass bosses, purchase as many healing potions as possible. To ensure that healing potions always restore the maximum amount of health, buy a necklace from the merchant in front of the Gith manger.
