This achievement is awarded for fully upgrading your suit and every weapon in the game. There are 189 Power Nodes required in total but there are only 67 to find in a single playthrough, therefore, you will need to complete the game at least twice (required anyway), or possibly into a third playthough until you have enough Power Nodes. This must be done on New Game Plus to retain your progress.
Depending on how you play and whether you would like to play New Game Plus again for fun after gaining this achievement, you can sell everything for credits and purchase extra Power Nodes.
Despite being awarded additional Power Nodes and credits for each completion, it will still take time. This is what you are required to do:
- Find every weapon in the game and receive the Full Arsenal achievement. These are found in Chapters 2 through to 6 and are not easy to miss. For a full location guide, please see the achievement Full Arsenal: Credit to MrWilliamThor for the guide.
- Complete the side mission, ‘You Are Not Authorised’ and receive the Full Clearance achievement. This will give you access to all restricted areas of the USG Ishimura required to find every weapon upgrade. Please note, if you gain access to all areas and fail to find all weapon upgrades on your current playthough, you need to do this again on the next playthough. For a full location guide, please see the achievement Full Clearance: Credit to Vexxol for the guide.
Edit: November 2023. After completing a new playthough, gaining the master clearance and then starting a NG+, the access to restricted “Master” areas was retained. I still didn’t have access to rooms above my clearance level but could enter master areas. Likely part of a recent MOTIVE update. Anyway, you can check your clearance on the RIG.
- Find every weapon upgrade and receive the achievement Built to Order. As mentioned above, you will need Full Clearance to gain access to all areas. For a full location guide, please see the achievement Built to Order: Credit to ThePoopGhost for the guide and HarryNinetyFour for the video.
Purchase all suits. Each new suit you purchase will open more RIG upgrade options at the Bench. The final suit is the Level 6 suit, which is a USM Valor, white military suit and is available in the Store after completing the game for 99K credits.
You cannot buy the final ‘Level 6’ suit until you have purchased all the other suits before it, you have to purchase them all in order. Doing a New Game Plus from your Impossible playthough and using the Burnished suit, will not allow you to bypass buying all the suits either.
Below is a list of all suits if you have not found them already:
- Level 1 suit is the one you are wearing at the start of the game.
- Level 2 suit is available in the Store after completing Chapter 1 for 10K credits.
- Level 3 suit requires a Schematic which is found in Chapter 4. It is located in a side room called the EVA Prep Room on your way to the ADS Canons, where you need to go outside of the USG Ishimura and calibrate the Canons. Once you load the Schematic in the Store, it is available to purchase for 20K credits.
- Level 4 suit requires a Schematic which is found in Chapter 7. After speaking to Nicole at the end of the gondola, it can be found in the Equipment Workshop where the SOS Beacon is located. Once you load the Schematic in the Store, it is available to purchase for 35K credits.
- Level 5 suit requires a Schematic which is found in Chapter 10. At the start of the Chapter, you will need to enter the Zero-G Basketball area (fancy a game?), to collect the Power Cell and activate the elevator. Hopefully on your way to it you will have passed through the Standard Bathrooms but not, it is directly ahead of you as you leave the Zero-G Basketball area. The Schematic is on a bench in this room. Once you load the Schematic in the Store, it is available to purchase for 60K credits.
- Level 6 suit is available in the Store after completing the game and starting a New Game Plus playthough. It costs 99K credits.
If you would benefit from a visual guide to the Suit Schematics, please see the Merchant achievement. Credit to Darth Tigore for the guide.
The Premeditated Malpractice side mission must also be completed to gain this achievement. Completing the mission will give you the Prototype Stasis Module upon completion. You will only need to complete this mission once, regardless if it is your first playthrough or New Game Plus. Please refer to the achievement Final Regeneration, which I have a guide for.

This bit you mentioned I find confusing, can you please clarify further?
‘You cannot buy the Level 6 suit until you have purchased all the other suits before it. This includes doing a New Game Plus from Impossible difficulty and gaining the Burnished suit. All suits must be purchased in order.’
This sounds like you are saying we need to complete Impossibile difficulty and gain the Burnished suit? Is this what you mean?
I’ve completed a Normal playthrough, I’ve started NG+ and I have bought the Level 6 White suit. I think I just need to max everything out for this cheevo, or do I need the Burnished suit that you mention too?
My plan was to do NG+ Plasma Cutter playthrough, max everything out and then sell the game. I will save the Impossible playthrough for when the game hits Game Pass Ultimate via. EA Play. Certainly not keen on 3 playthroughs back to back.

I have reworded it for clarity. If you already have the Level 6 suit, you don’t need to do anything more on this section, just upgrade the RIG to max at the Bench.
You cannot complete the game on Impossible Difficulty and then wear the Burnished suit to max out your RIG; some people have suggested you can, but you can’t.
The Burnished suit does not affect this achievement and is not required.

I would suggest keeping the force gun in your inventory for the ammo stacks. A full stack is worth 6k I just sold these constantly during my plasma cutter run. I had 680,000 credits at the end of chapter 11 and bought 68 nodes to finish upgrading my weapons.

To help with this process, Polygon found an infinite money glitch: https://www.polygon.com/guides/2023/1/30/23577908/dead-space...
The more concise runthrough is as follows:
The more concise runthrough is as follows:
- Shoot as many grenades as possible without reloading and then convert them to ammo using RB (by default)
- Add another node to the Pulse Rifle’s capacity in the Weapon Bench, which will automatically refill the existing magazine.
- Repeat previous steps until you’re out of nodes or out of inventory space
- Sell newly created ammo at Store. Having all CAP nodes maxed out should net you 23,750 credits.
- Reset the Pulse Rifle’s node tree with X to repeat the process.

For those curious, this still works as of 10/12/2023. Increasing capacity also refills other weapons, but Pulse Rifle is the only one to allow converting stored ammo into ammo pickups which can be sold

This achievement is a pain. Always look for blue and yellow cases on the wall, each one has a power node guaranteed. Do not sell your weapons, you will lose all upgrades you bought for them if you do - I had to find that out the hard way after wasting 35 nodes on them. You will need to do multiple playthroughs on the same save. You can buy power nodes at the store for 10,000 credits each too, so be sure to save up your money. Concentrate on stuff you need first then move on to weapons you don't use after. When you want to upgrade, go up to a work bench and press 
, then select what you want to upgrade and start popping in power nodes for each upgrade slot. 155 Power nodes are needed in total. You do not have to waste them on the empty slots. Try and go around them.

There is basically no way to do this on a single playthrough of Dead Space. Luckily, we already need to do a New Game+ playthrough to get the Trusted Contractor (50G) achievement, but it’s still not totally assured, so here is our best advice on how to approach this.
Firstly, you’re going to want to keep your eyes peeled for as many Nodes as you can find. They are typically found in side rooms, down dead end corridors, or in rooms that you can backtrack to when you get a higher security clearance. They are also dropped by defeated Brutes, and unlocked when you install a weapon upgrade at the Bench (see Built To Order (30G)).
As per our Achievement Guide & Roadmap, the best way to approach this is to collect as many Nodes as you can on your first, normal playthrough, as well as the weapon upgrades and suit upgrades.
Then, when you start a New Game+ playthrough, pick Story difficulty, and only use the Plasma Cutter. Make sure to buy the Level 6 suit ASAP (you’ll need this to be able to fully upgrade it) and then spend literally any excess money you have on Nodes from the store.
Because of the ease with which you’re dispatching enemies, and Isaac’s auto-generating health, you can sell any excess health items, stasis packs, O2 canisters, and even ammunition, at the Store, to raise more sweet credits to spend on Nodes. Additionally, make sure to pick up every Node you find along the way. Even without any late game backtracking, you should be able to fully upgrade all of your weapons and your suit by Chapter 10 of NG+. If you don’t, there’s still more Nodes to be found by using the Master Security Override, and a few in Chapter 12 down on Aegis VII as well. Just keep selling things and buying Nodes until you’ve upgraded everything.

They are typically found in side rooms, down dead end corridors, or in rooms that you can backtrack to when you get a higher security clearance. They are also dropped by defeated Brutes, and unlocked when you install a weapon upgrade at the Bench (see Built To Order (30G)).
As per our Achievement Guide & Roadmap, the best way to approach this is to collect as many Nodes as you can on your first, normal playthrough, as well as the weapon upgrades and suit upgrades.
Then, when you start a New Game+ playthrough, pick Story difficulty, and only use the Plasma Cutter. Make sure to buy the Level 6 suit ASAP (you’ll need this to be able to fully upgrade it) and then spend literally any excess money you have on Nodes from the store.
Because of the ease with which you’re dispatching enemies, and Isaac’s auto-generating health, you can sell any excess health items, stasis packs, O2 canisters, and even ammunition, at the Store, to raise more sweet credits to spend on Nodes. Additionally, make sure to pick up every Node you find along the way. Even without any late game backtracking, you should be able to fully upgrade all of your weapons and your suit by Chapter 10 of NG+. If you don’t, there’s still more Nodes to be found by using the Master Security Override, and a few in Chapter 12 down on Aegis VII as well. Just keep selling things and buying Nodes until you’ve upgraded everything.

One hint mentioned a glitch with duplication, but it duplicated (I think) 5000 credits. And you can duplicate the Peng treasure (30,000 credits). Here is a video guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aPL0Kq7944
Of course, it takes a lot of time, but it's still faster than going through the whole game again.

Now about the statuette.
And indeed, as vsezabito said, it is better to put it near the door (you will save a lot of time), BUT! as BRAIAN noted, it really does disappear, mine disappeared after 26.
Also keep in mind when selling figurines! The maximum amount of money you can have is 999,999, sell more than this amount and you will lose credits!
And so, having all the goods that I listed above and 22 statues (4 I sold over the Max Credits and they were sold in vain) I had enough - BUY the missing weapons, UPGRADE all the equipment and all the weapons; and there is still some left! Plus in Chapter 12 you will find 2 more Power Blocks and items that can be sold! That is, you do not have to collect 50+ of these statues to upgrade... well, that's it

Don't run to the statue as shown in the video clip, you can pick it up near the gate, it will save time, find the maximum distance with kinesis and drag it over the fence with kinesis, you'll still have to get through.

Do not run to the figurine as shown in the video clip. You can pick it up near the gate, it will save time, use kinesis to find the maximum distance and use kinesis to drag it through the fence, you can climb through anyway.

Yes, this is the easiest and fastest way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aPL0Kq7944
I piled up a bunch of 50 pieces - nothing was buggy. True, you can significantly speed up the process: When you take out the figurine from below, do not carry it immediately into the room, leave it in front of the first doorway after the bridge (the opening where the doors are open) without moving the threshold (threshold line, of course you can further away from him, but the closer, the more convenient) Then, as in the video, open the door, run into the room, open the next door and run a little to the right around the corner along the corridor until you hear a certain sound - come back. Now the figure will be duplicated in the place where you found it put - Just open the door, use kinesis to drag the figurine into the room (no more running across the bridge and waiting for the door to open), well, as described and as in the video, open the door again, run around the corner, come back, open the door behind which the figurine is, pull it into the room with kinesis , and repeat again until you get enough When you can safely grab them into your backpack (but not before, because if you take them, a new figure will stop appearing) You don’t have to carry them on the elevator either, the main thing is to throw them from the first room behind the door to the corridor in front by the elevator (if you leave it in the room, the figures will disappear while you go down the elevator) They won’t disappear from the corridor. You can, in principle, transfer everything from the backpack to the safe and carry them from the corridor in batches of 25 pieces to the store. I think it will take about 20 minutes to upgrade all the weapons.
Note: to receive a prize, you need to pump up to the maximum not only X, stasis, kinesis and the 4 weapons you have with you, but also the 3 weapons that are in the safe. Do not sell weapons because along with the weapon you are selling all the upgrades for it. Empty nodes can be bypassed, although if you use this method you may not save money)))

This method does not work entirely correctly, but it works as soon as you train 20-25+ figurines. The figurine that is duplicated in front of the doorway disappears and that’s it. This is the end. You will either have to reload the saves or use the old method, which is the most proven. Let it be longer.

There is a glitch! But not critical.
You just need to run a little further - out the door. Go through the door. Let it close completely. Then come back out and hear your sound.
