How to unlock the Mostly Flesh and Steel achievement in Dishonored Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

It is best to work towards this achievement on your low chaos playthrough.

Essentially you are unable to purchase any powers at all using runes. You also CANNOT upgrade blink.

However you can upgrade your mask, weapons, equipment and use bone charms. Just dont purchase any powers and you will get this achievement

When was this supposed to pop? I completed the game on low chaos no kills detections and such, and whilst through it never spent a single rune! (However I did collect most of them)

Edit: Phew! It did unlock, it just ninja popped (as I like to call it) I.e. it never actually ‘pops’, it unlocks silently

It ninja popped for me as well. Though showing as unlocked it didn't even show up on recent achievements.

You can get Ghost, Shadow, and Mostly Flesh and Steel in a single playthrough but you're setting yourself up for save/reload hell because of the alerts. I disagree with the solution's advice to do Mostly Flesh and Steel in a Low Chaos run unless you want to do at least 3 play throughs because Ghost/Shadow and High Chaos don't mix. Best do the no powers run for High Chaos and the others for Low Chaos.

No you don't start with dark vision. Sadly I just finished playing through the whole game with blink only, but I didn't know you can't upgrade it. Well at least I know the best routes to take to do a blink only/Low chaos/Speed run.

Also, if you are looking for a really good walkthrough to get Ghost and Clean Hands on one run, use the videos from WikiGameGuides. He explains what he's doing and what to look out for. Just search it on YouTube. It was really helpful.

I've gotta disagree. The stealth is made much easier and more enjoyable with powers. The game requires 2 playthroughs anyways for all achievements and powers arnt too helpful for killing people, trusty pistol and sword is all you need really.

Flesh and Steel + High chaos is much easier than low chaos

The only thing you cannot do in a flesh and steel playthrough is use your runes. Everything else is allowed. This includes:

-Weapon upgrades
-Equipment upgrades
-Bone charms

The wording on this guide had me puzzled. Using runes is prohibited but anything else is allowed.

This trophy is basically for never using runes to upgrade the Outsider Powers.

Using non-upgraded Blink will not void the trophy. And it does make getting around a lot easier.

Tips:
• Use this method during your Low Chaos playthrough.
• Also make sure to take out all targets by non indirect means
1) Branding the Overseer
2) Following Slackjaws first side quest to eliminate Pendletons for you
3) Using the Political broadcast to take out the Lord Regent.
4) Following the side quest from the Lord in the room furthest on the left to deliver Lady Boyle unharmed to the boat.
• Do not kill anyone, only choke out or use sleep darts.
• Use save files for every five minutes. Have one save before you start the mission and every checkpoint you pass should also have its own save. Making sure that during the save files YOU ARE NEVER SPOTTED.
• Take the highroad as often as possible
• During Kaldwin's Bridge climb to the top and crawl along the top to avoid all enemies on the Bridge. This also earns you a trophy, so you Know when you're as high as you can go.

Doing all these tips will also nab you four extra trophies.

Be aware: purchasing the upgrade to Blink will negate the trophy.
