How to unlock the Weigher of Souls achievement in Cult of the Lamb - Definitive Guide

I am fairly certain that you HAVE to use the Sacrifice Ritual for progress towards this. I am also pretty certain that you only need to do it ten times, not twenty. (Playstation and Steam are both 10 not 20).

Make sure you work on this throughout your playthrough! Sacrifice older members of your Cult before they die naturally, if you want to affect the day to day the least. If you save this for the end of your playthrough you will spend a lot of time standing around managing the Cult just waiting for days to pass by. From what I noticed, it takes about four days for the Sacrifice Ritual to recharge.

If you need to waste time, don't forget to hold Y to speed up the passage of time while you are in the base! It's still not SUPER fast, but it's better than the alternative.

Does ascend follower ritual count? Or any other way?

Yeah another guide said everything counted. Have you had any lucky with the other sacrifice methods?

Can confirm other sacrifice methods do not count towards this. Great tip on holding Y as well.

This popped for me after only doing 10 sacrifices as well

Can confirm this achievement only requires a sacrifice of 10 followers. When this achievement popped for me, the achievement description had also been modified to reflect that it's for sacrificing 10 followers now

To check how many sacrifices you have done, you can check the number in the church under doctrine.

Anyone knows if the "sacrifice to Midas" also works?

This achievement is cumulative, but note that the Sacrifice Ritual is NOT the only thing that counts for this achievement. The following also contribute to the 20 Followers needed:
 
  • Sacrificing four Followers for Midas to get his Talisman shards (explained in Transmute (30G))
  • Sacrificing three Followers for Death to get his Talisman shards (also explained in Transmute (30G))
  • Using the Ascend Ritual on a Follower
  • Sacrificing a Follower once you have the ability (from using a Bishop heart in the Crown menu in your Temple) to sacrifice a Follower upon dying to continue your Crusade run
So assuming you're going for the completion, you're guaranteed seven while going for the Fleeces. You should definitely be using the Sacrifice Ritual often early on, because it gives you a ton of points for more Sermon Upgrades.

Once you're done with most other things in the game though and you want to grind out this achievement, the fastest way to grind this out would be to continually start Crusade runs, let enemies kill you, sacrifice a Follower, then return to your cult and repeat until this unlocks.

Only those victims who were killed through the “Bloody Gift” ritual are counted.

It is not done in the village, but during the race, when you die, you choose whose life you will exchange for from your charges.

On the console itself, the trophies require you to sacrifice 20 followers. Sacrificed in the camp and during the passage of locations. But when he beat the trophy because of the open strategist, he made 9 offerings which were not enough, but in the end 20 were needed.

Contrary to the previous commentator, it is done exactly in the village (the ritual of Sacrifice is given by the one-who-is-waiting)
If after 10 sacrifices it doesn’t work, it means there’s a bug.

Perhaps it counts both in the village and at death - then the fastest way is to enter the forest, die, be reborn at the expense of a follower, teleport back and again until victory
