How to unlock the Challenger achievement in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic Elements - Definitive Guide

Just got this last night, in the longest session I have ever been in.

First of all, you'll need 10 people to start a Ranked Blitz.

You'll want to do this in Rank Blitz on the map Deep Forest like Wallace has said, but to speed it up a bit, have the team who is not winning, simply kill each other, so the winning team wins by default pretty much. That can save anywhere to a minute and a half, to around 2 minutes a match in time.

Have each member of the losing team be a mage, and have them all group up, so that one of them can cast Meteor Storm, killing them all. If done fast enough, you can end a round in about 15 seconds or so. Deep Forest is the best map, since it's so small, that the winning team can still run over, and kill the losing, if one of them happens to survive the Meteor Storm. Mages also have Burning Finger, which they can kill themselves with by pointing it at their own feet.

I doubt many people will see this, this game is not easy at all to boost, since you'll need 8 people minimum to start any kind of match, and you'll need 10 people to play Ranked Blitz. But I figured, this will really save time for people who will try going for this.

Sorry Z, can't really help you there, maybe you hit a glitch? Oh are you 100% sure all of those 27 matches were in ranked?

I'm pretty sure I wad in ranked. I'm now 8th on the All Time Rank Deathmatch Leadboard, have 280 rank point, and had played 28 games. Everytime I won the game I got 10 rank point, so I'm sure I already had 28 wins. I was also being the host everytime, sometimes my dummy accounts were droped out or forzenz but as a host I finished the match everytime, never crashed onCE before. Now I'm gonna try that my dummy account being the host, see if I can get the achievement...cry

Yeah, I was there with him that night. 12 hours to get all multiplayer done. I just want to mention that even though killing your allies gives you negative kills on the leaderboard and all menus, it does not effect the kills required for the 666 kills achievement. However, it makes it harder to figure out how far you are in kills using the leaderboards if you don't note how far negative you are at the start of your kill session.

Playing on Ranked Blitz in Deep forest is the fastest to get the wins as long as you are in the winning team. This achievement can be gained along with Local champion, just by hosting.

Adding to the above helpful tips. Just some clarification regarding Ranked and player achievements.If someones game freezes and they are kicked from the game, all progress toward achievements, for all players in the game will still count.

If a player is kicked they will still get certain achievements if they had unlocked them during that gameExample. We had a fella who needed the survivor achievement. He gets his 7 kills without dieing and then he is kicked form the game and his achievement unlocks.

That's a great tip, really wish I could up vote this, but since I have made another guide for this, I can't.

TA should really let people who make guides for the same achievements at least still be able to up vote others.
I understand not letting them down vote, but not being able to up vote? Why not?

I think its just to stop people voting on their own guides.

Still, you'd think they could program it to stop you from voting on your own guide, no down voting others, but still letting you up vote others.

Note: As of 2022, the Online Game Mode for this game is still working. But I would suggest you get the Online Achievements done for this game, sooner than later.
The Online for this game is Dead, so your going to need to Boost It. It is highly suggested that if you have Dummy Accounts & Extra Copies of the Game and Consoles, to bring them in as well.
This game is Not Backward Compatible on the other XBox Consoles. And the game has a bad habit of Freezing your Consoles on regular occasions.
Finally, it is recommended to install the game to your Hard-Drive if you are playing the game with a Retail Disc. It takes 6.8GB's.


This Achievement has to be done in a Ranked Match.

You will likely need 10 Players, to get the Achievement. It could be done with 8 Players. But having 8 will mean you will likely have to choose a different Game Mode, that will make the Achievement take a lot more time to unlock.

To get this Achievement. You need win a total of 20 Ranked Matches across all of your Games played. Chances are, this will likely be an Achievement you will save until a later stage into your Boosting, with your Group. So you will all have to do less than 20 Matches, to get the Achievement.

The best Game Mode to get this achievement on, is Blitz. The reason is because you all can speed this Game Mode up, to get this Achievement done for everyone faster. The downside is that you will need 10 Players to start a Blitz Game Mode.

Whilst you can get the Matches done by capturing the Flags as quickly as possible. There is another Method you can apply, which might be easier.

First you need to decide who is going to Host The Ranked Match...

They need to Create a Blitz Match on a Map of their choosing. Personally I would choose Deep Forest...

Now once the Lobby is Created, everyone then needs to search for it and hope they can successfully join...

Now here is the Important part towards this Method. As there are 10 of you in this Lobby. You need to split everyone in Half. So I suggest putting 5 of you on the Human Team. 5 of you on the Undead Team. At the same time. You need to decide who is going to Win or Lose. Whomever is Losing, needs to choose a Mage as their Class. Make sure they choose the Elemental as their Attack Formation. The Winning Team doesn't matter...

Once everyone has chosen their Teams & Characters & Ready Up. The Host can press the cn_X button to Launch The Match...

OK, so for the Team that's Losing as the Mages, everyone needs to gather round and Jam Pack yourselves together. Like a Tin of Sardines. This will also get rid of your Invulnerability for Idling. The next thing you need to do is have one of you press and hold the cn_X button, then press it a couple more times to cause a Meteor Storm. This will damage the User & anyone surrounding them. It should Kill everyone on their Team and end the Round. Rinse and repeat until all 3 Rounds are done.

If for some unknown reason, someone on that Team is still alive from the Explosion, either get them to Kill themselves solely by making them look down and holding the cn_RB button. Or have someone on the winning side run over and quickly get a Kill.

Once all 3 Rounds are done. The Match will be complete, and the winning Team will get a Point towards the Achievement. Whoever is the Host will need to back out and Re-Host the entire Match & Lobby and repeat everything as described above. Rinse and repeat until everyone on one Team get's the Achievement. Swap over roles and let the other Team take the Wins until they get the Achievement.

With all this in mind, everyone should get this achievement along the way...

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: ElementsBlitzkriegThe Blitzkrieg achievement in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements worth 73 points[Ranked] Complete a map in Blitz mode in a ranked match in less than 8 minutes.


And if the person who is the Host is Winning the Matches as well. They will get progress towards this Achievement as well...

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: ElementsLocal championThe Local champion achievement in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements worth 179 pointsWin 20 matches hosted by yourself. Requires at least 8 players.


Tip: To reduce the amount of time, needed to get this Achievement as well. I suggest you Swap Hosts, rather than letting the same Host Win & Lose, all the Matches needed to do, towards the other respective Achievements your going for.

Hope all this helps. Good Luck!
