Does anyone know if this can be achieved on multple playthroughs with the same profile? Ive completed two of the tracks, but now finding it difficult to finish the last 2 on Story Plus so was thinking of starting a new game on the easier setting to clean up the two Im missing. Would that count for this one?

:+:Context:+:
- All Initials are either Challenge track name or District name
- don't have patch installed with digital or remove the save data if own disc
- if patch not installed, SV #15 can be done in three separate fights instead of forced into a single fight: no dmg; 15+ variations; x50+ combo

- notes GP #15 - did lower 3 districts, then SP, counter-clockwise 4 districts, back to left side of bridge (next to SP), waited, clear out mid (can cause issues between which mob ends the CiP), fly to container on west side of SP, wait for CiP to pop--takes 3-5 mins--in front of your character, drag last one or two mobs southeast to small area next to fence/bridge where district/area name changes to Pioneers Bridge then take them down in that spot
- open up Deadshot's pred room when available (save for WN #9)
- failed completing WN #10 in all three places: during Deadshot side mission, pool area in Hotel, and didn't count during Black Mask's side mission--it should have worked in Hotel pool, but I messed up.
- For WN #10 - 15 to complete within a single playthrough: do #10 by/at hotel pool; #11 anywhere; #12 for Black Mask church mission; #13 outside Steel Mill; #14 Firefly first pred room; #15 Firefly second pred room

WARNING: MISSABLE ACHIEVEMENT

These four Dark Knight tracks are unique challenges that must be completed during your time in the Story Mode portion of the game. Each track has 15 challenges that get progressively skill-oriented the further you climb the track.

The Shadow Vigilante challenges focus on technique variation, gadget usage, and counters during combat while the Gotham Protector challenges focus on stopping crimes in progress and performing different gliding techniques. The Worst Nightmare challenges – which are the most difficult of the four – see you utilizing stealth as you take down unaware enemies with different combat techniques and gadgets. Lastly, the World’s Greatest Detective challenges are strictly related to completing a certain percentage of the game’s “database” entries by finding collectibles and solving crime scenes around Gotham City.

It's highly suggested to start working on the challenges as soon as possible on your first playthrough. Your primary focus should be on the Worst Nightmare track. Since enemies in predator rooms and/or certain predator encounters do not respawn after clearing them out, you may miss some chances on finishing this track in a single playthrough, thus making this achievement, along with Worst Nightmare and I've Got This partially missable if you do not finish them on your other two playthroughs.

In order to view these Dark Knight tracks, press and scroll over to the third tab using the button. Here, you can see all 60 challenges in the game and even take a peek at little hints that are provided for each individual challenge. You can tell which specific challenges you have already completed at any time by referring to the checkmark box near challenge’s details. If you need help with any general tips for any of the tracks, you can visit THIS THREAD for more information. For specific strategies for the Worst Nightmare challenges, utilize THIS THREAD instead.
