How to unlock the Boned achievement in Castlevania: Harmony of Despair - Definitive Guide

To be in 'skeleton form', a player needs to die in a multiplayer game. Once they die, a grave appears where they fell, and the player continues on as a skeleton until revived and some time is shaved off the timer. The players who are skeletons can die, but come back again at the spot where their graves rest and shave off more time. If all players become skeletons, it's Game Over.

So, to do this, you'd need 6 players, one of which would stay alive. Easiest way to do this is the first boss, Gergoth. Just weaken it till it breaks the ground and you all fall to the first level of the tower. Then, 5 of the players kill themselves by running into it, getting hit by attacks, etc. After they're all dead, just procede to KO the enemy. Easy-peasy, and all involved get the achievement.

To add to this comment. You can run the player who is still alive off to the right and jump to safety while the skeletons fight. You can die as a skeleton multiple times as long as 1 player is still alive.

hexblade - not really... every death takes time off the timer, and the skellies do virtually no damage. Much better to let the living character finish off Gergoth.

actually i would have the skeletons go to safety and have the last living guy fight. assuming he got potions to heal himself.
this boss is tricky in hard mode, but in normal setting he's a joke.

I was wondering if you, or anyone who gets to read this, would know if you have to be the person alive to get the achievement? Or could you be one of the skeletons? I think I can answer it myself, but I'm not sure. Do to the "killing Dracula" achievement and how if you were in a group of people, I doubt only the person with the final blow on him gets the achievement, but if anyone could clarify this it would be a great help, and might answer it for future persons as well. Thanks.

Hm, good question. With the sliding achievement, only the one who gets the final blow gets the achievement...so, not sure.

I can confirm, as I just got this achievement tonight, that it doesn't matter if you're one of the living or one of the dead. You just need to be in a six player game and have one left standing when you finish. I was one of the dead ones, so that should settle it.

No Chrono, I don't believe it's possible locally.

There are connection issues right now, likely related to the server overload from GWG. We had 5 Americans and 1 EU, and just kept trying until it worked. Took about 20 mins of switching hosts and stuff. All 6 ppl need to see each other on the lobby screen otherwise it’ll kick u out when it loads up

Keep in mind that every time you die and turn into a skeleton the timer loses time. Also, when you are a skeleton you have 100 HP and can die again quickly- making the timer go down more. Make sure that the person who is designated to stay alive has plenty of potions to keep from turning into a skeleton and failing. Good luck.

excellent note... i wish people understood this in multiplayer in general. to add to you comment, when you die after you are already a skeleton, it takes exactly 3 minutes off your clock. so, if you have 3 to 5 noobs just kamakazing themselves into the boss, you're going to run out of time in about 8 seconds.

The easiest is Chapter 1 boss. This trophy must be gotten online with five other players. When you reach the boss, have five of the players die intentionally by the boss. Now just simply have the final character kill him, but make sure the final character can kill him.

Easiest to do on Normal in the first chapter. You beat the boss until the floor begins to collapse, then five of your party members quickly die and the 6th finishes him off.
But everything depends on the “pumping” of you and your companions; calculate your strength so as not to kill the boss ahead of time.

It’s a little different, five should die, but the sixth finishes it off.
