How to unlock the Ultimate Enlightenment achievement in DRAGON QUEST XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Guide
The Wheel of Harma is a set of challenges unlocked after completing the story events in Angri-La during Act 2. You can access them by speaking to the High Lama at the Field of Discipline. These challenges require you to select which party members will participate in certain rounds of a multi-round battle. You will be awarded a prize for completing each challenge as well as up to three additional prizes by completing it within a certain amount of actions.
To unlock this trophy you need to complete all five challenges. You will not have access to all of these until Act 3 (Post Game). While you do not need any of the extra prizes awarded for completing them in a set amount of actions for this particular trophy there are some recipes for Dedicated Follower of Fashion that will require you complete them quickly. For this reason it is best to leave at least the final challenge, if not all of them, until you've reached level 99 on all characters (see Next-Level Luminary for tips on levelling). As far as tactics go, the easiest way to overcome these challenges is to make sure you have at least one character with strong AOE attacks in each round to try to finish off multiple monsters at once lowering your actions taken. You should be able to blitz through the first four rounds but the final challenge in particular is the most difficult as not only are the enemies tougher, you will have an NPC that summons adds continuously throughout the rounds extending the turns you will have to use. There are many methods to obtain this but if you're struggling I've included my setup below.
- Round 1 - Rab and Sylvando. Rab should use Kamikaze and hopefully will kill all three at once. Sylvando can clean up if need be or flee and try again.
- Round 2 - Hero and Hendrik. I had them both with greatswords using Unbridled Hit on the main enemy. When adds are summoned and main enemy goes down Hero can use Quadraslah and Hendrik can use pretty much anything else to help clean up.
- Round 3 - Jade and Erik. Jade uses Multifeet and Erik uses Divide then Critical Claim on the main enemy. When adds are summoned Jade can use Pink Tornado while Erik cleans up.
- Round 4 - Veronica and Serena. These two must be pepped up prior to starting the challenge. Use the Mighty Magic Burst pep power to one hit both enemies.
