How to unlock the Mercenary achievement in Bound by Flame - Definitive Guide

You will get this achievement for completing 20 sidequests in the game.

You can get sidequests from characters you meet in different chapters. You can also get personal quests from your companions which also count as sidequests.
Always go around your current mainbase and talk to everybody and offer them your help. The quests are straight forward - find someone, find something, fight something, collect something, ...)

After starting a sidequets you will get a marker on your map (sidequests are marked with "2" - main quests with "1"). Simply follow the marker to complete your objectives.
Those sidequests will earn you a good amount of XP - so it's a good way to level up your character.

The achievement pops after finishing your 20th sidequest - for me this unlocked around the beginning of Chapter 3.

If you have any info on how to improve this solution feel free to comment!

You could mention how many side quests there are possible in the whole game because I have been searching the net and not found an answer yet. This would help let us know if we need to worry about missing a side quest or two or three.facepalm

Hey! Sorry but it has been three and a half years since I played this so I don't really remember much about the game. As long as you keep talking to people you should be fine. I think there are more than the needed 20 sidequests.

There are only about 25 of them, we leave the trophy for the second playthrough for a female character on easy difficulty!
this way we will lose less time than going through them all and dying a lot, or going through unnecessary paths on Hardcore! Don't worry about playing on hardcore difficulty without extras. I upgraded the quest to level 25
