How to unlock the Infused with Greatness achievement in BioShock Infinite - Definitive Guide

I've made a text and video guide in the thread below:
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43...

The guide will show ALL 142 collectible items in the game, in chronological order, broken down by chapter. Timelinks are available next to each collectible for video reference. If you have the season pass, and picked up all 5 of the infusion upgrades near the beginning of the game, you will unlock this achievement early.

Please view the notes at the top of the guide for additional information.

Note: I have linked to the thread for formatting reasons.

@bmlx5867, if you got the 5 from the season pass, you will get the achievement if you collect 19 infusion upgrades during the game.

I said that in the solution....

@ MAK91 commenting bmlx5867 you clearly did not read what he wrote so don't seem like a smart ass and say.....He is asking what would happen if he bought the season pass after the beginning of the game. To answer him I think it wouldn't work, looks like you get the upgrades at the very beginning of the game.

@gamerboyTHXtss, No, you missed an infusion because you didnt keep track of things. They are all there, nothing to be missed. 10,000+ have used this guides through the game, your the first to complain.

Great guide. Thanks.

Yes, you can restart a checkpoint. You can even restart an entire chapter from the select mission menu. I missed an infusion in Monument Tower but could not go back for it because the doors lock behind you as you go up and a checkpoint had been triggered. So I chose to restart the level and continued on from there and popped the achievement when collecting the last infusion.

I can confirm that with the season pass bonus/complete edition, the 5 additional Infusions you get in the bar at Comstock Rooftops count toward the achievement.

Bioshock Infinite has 25 Infusion Upgrades. The first one get you automatically so you must yourself collect 24 Bottles.

Are you owner of the Seasonpass, you start with 5 Bottles and the Achievement unlocked when you collect your 20th Bottle and not at the 25th.

Seasonpass Owner finished the Game with 29 Upgradepoints, all other with 24.

Your must collect all 25 Bottles in ONE Playthrough, you can not reload a "Chapter" aka old Save to collect an missed Bottle. This doesn´t work!.

In the Video you see below the overall Counter for each collectible Categorie and what i currently collected is BOLD marked. At the Top you see the "big" Chaptername, not the little one particular.

When you Click a Item, a new Window open and the Video starts from this Time / Item. Otherwise you can watch the Video below the Missions and click manually to the Time.

The Video shows ALL 142 Collectibles sorted by Storyprogress, i link here only the 25 Infusion Upgrades.

I can confirm that you CAN go back by reloading a chapter to get the one that you missed and still get the achievement as long as don't finish your playtrough. I missed the one at Beggar's wharf and realised i'd missed it when i was at finkton docks,so i've quit the game loaded Beggar's wharf and continued on from there and the cheevo popped and i do not have the season pass!!

getting the season pass after you start your playtrhrough doesn't work. I played for 3 hours. got the season pass later that day then played through the game and I was short 2 infusions. I was very thorough. I only missed 1 sightseer and 2 voxs with no guides on anything. cheers!

For the last one maybe but not when you miss as example the 5th or 10th because you load only a savegame not really a Chapter.

Great guide. I also used with this:

http://www.ign.com/wikis/bioshock-infinite/Infusions

Also I do have the Season Pass and when the achievement unlocked I had 24 infusions collected. I've collected every single one the last one I got was in "Emporia". So if you have the Season Pass this is where you should get it if you have gotten all the Infusions up until this point. Just a tip :}

Also to add, if you miss one along the way and try to reload a chapter later on, just getting the one you need won't net you the achievement. I had 24/25 and missed the one back in Zeal Plaza with the cipher. I realized it when I was near the end, and when I tried to reload the checkpoint and obtain the infusion, the cheevo didn't unlock. Looks like I'll have to get them all on 1999 mode...:(

Bioshock Infinite has 24 collectible Infusions disregarding the initial shield Infusion in the Blue Ribbon Bar that you cannot miss. These need to be gathered in a single playthrough unlike the Sights and Voxophones for the Sightseer and Eavesdropper achievements, respectively. Follow the two videos below to find all the Infusions.

Hey Guys, Just Wanna Share A Little Wisdom, Expand On What The Previous Solutions Have Said.

In The Achievement Description It States To Collect Every Infusion Upgrade In A Single Game.

When I Went Through, I Followed IGN's Text Based Guide: http://au.ign.com/wikis/bioshock-infinite/Infusions

I Completely Missed The Port Prosperity Infusion, Continued With My Game Until Just After I Picked Up The Memorial Gardens Infusion. When I Realised, I Exited My Game, Chapter Selected Through Port Prosperity, Picked Up My Missed Infusion And Continued Playing From There, I Replayed All Of Port Prosperity And Memorial Gardens And Kept Going On With My Game. At The End, Achievement Unlocked!

So If You Miss, One, You Can Chapter Select, As Long As You Are Willing To Continue From That Chapter, Don't Collect The Missed Infusion, Then Chapter Select To Where You Got Up To (I Haven't Confirmed That This WON'T Work, But If Anyone Can, That'd Be Great).

Hopefully This Will Help A Couple Of People Who Were A Little Worried About The One Playthrough.

*** If Anyone Is Going To Downvote This, Can You Please Leave A Comment Or OM Me As To Why, Always Trying To Improve. Thanks.

Not a full solution, just a warning.

If you pick up an infusion and die before an autosave, make sure you go back and look for it again.

Lots of stuff you pick up stays in your possession after a death, but not Infusions. Two playthroughs and I still didn't get this Achievement, so while trying again I noticed that #12, in the jail cell, was there waiting for me to pick up even though I'd gotten it earlier.

A similar thing happened with the Sightseer Achievement, where I'd used a telescope but not long enough for it to register, and only because I was retracing everything trying to find what I'd missed did I stumble across it...

[MISSABLE] There are 25 Infusion upgrades (including the unmissable Shield upgrade given to you at the beginning) located around Columbia that are required for this trophy. When you find an Infusion, you have the choice to upgrade Booker’s Health, Shield or Salts. Each attribute has 10 available upgrades, for a total of 30. The remaining 5 Infusions left over are available with the Early Bird Special Pack DLC, which comes free with the Season Pass. These will be given to you upon entering the Blue Ribbon Restaurant at the beginning of the game and they do count towards this trophy, meaning that you can afford to miss 5 of the ones dotted around Columbia (thanks to CODEx Vip3r for confirming this).

Once you use an Infusion you cannot reassign it, so I recommend filling out all ten Shield or Salts (depending on your play style) slots first to ensure that you do not miss Raising the Bar. All Infusions must be obtained within a single game. Therefore if you miss one, you can go back to the one you missed in Chapter Select, but you will have to play through to the end of the game from that point and collect all 25. You cannot, for example, get 20 on one playthrough and then pick up the 5 you missed on a second playthrough. Furthermore, this is the only collectable trophy that doesn’t notify you with an in-game progress-tracker as you go along. Therefore, I fully recommend using PowerPyx’s collectable guide to ensure you don’t miss any.

You can miss the trophy

The point is that all 24 bottles (except for the story bottle with a shield) must be collected in one playthrough, unlike voxophones and picture tubes. The trophy should be given after the last upgrade. If you missed something, you will have to replay from there and almost until the very end.

There is information that the additional five bottles from the season pass also count here and you will have to collect less.

This is where you need to go back before the turnstile opens, otherwise you will lose the opportunity.

For those who missed the bottle and don't want to go through the whole game. There is a 100% method (if you haven’t gone far) personally tested at your own peril and risk. In the ps3 menu, go to the ps3 saved data management utility and delete the last save points (from top to bottom) to the one you need and continue the game!)) in this way received it earlier. Ps. Attention!! Trophies are cumulative as 200 robberies are reset. killings in different ways (some) will be reset!!!

You should not rely on the video guide. The author omits some items. So by following his video, you won't collect all the bottles.

without a psn connection it doesn’t fall out! Even if you missed one and a half rubles, you can watch a video of how much it should be at that time and compare it with your progress, and start collecting it not from the very beginning! CHECKED PERSONALLY

The game has at least 2 more cans than required to get the trophy (fully raised the shield and up to 9 health and salt). You just need to farm more master keys in the Hall of Heroes, without farming you will have to miss a couple of safes to open doors to banks. For each solved cipher they also give you a jar.

If you miss 1 infusion, the Load Chapter function will not help you get the achievement. For example, we missed the infusion at the very beginning. We select to load chapter 3, take the missed bottle and replay the entire game from this point )
