How to unlock the A Stormdog's bond achievement in Earthlock: Festival of Magic - Definitive Guide

The achievement is unmissable and will unlock after fighting the boss in the burning desert region.

The fight itself is not that difficult, especially compared to some of the other boss fights in the game.

I used the following set-up:

Amon lvl. 7 with his blaster stance (bring enough water ammuntion)
Gnart lvl. 7 use his regen stance or bring enough healing Balm+.
Ive lvl. 7 use her electro lance ammo as much as possible.

How I managed to fight the boss effectively was to use Gnart simply as a health booster with healing balm+ potions, while Amon and Ive were firing away with water and electro ammo.
It definitely helps if you used the ammo master perk on Amon's and Ive's talent tree, but it is not necessary. The fight is easy enough

If you prefer a video guide, you can use the one below. A different set-up is used in the video but I think it might be helpful as an additional orientation. Jump to 33:11 to see the fight.

There are some achievements that don't unlock if you don't complete parts of other missions. I'm not sure that's the case here. Mine unlocked right after I fight the boss.

Story related, cannot be missed.

Taika is a stormdog and the pet of Ive who has gone missing after seeking help for her master. When you make it to the Burning Desert, Olia will temporarily leave your party. The Burning Desert comes with a new mechanic while you're traveling through it. You need to move quickly from structure to structure to get into the shade and recover from the heat of the desert. If you're out in the hot desert for far too long and don't make it to shade in time, you'll pass out and respawn from the last checkpoint. Don't worry too much about this though since your party won't take any damage from passing out.

As you travel through the hot desert, you'll eventually make it to a save Frog Statue where a cutscene will trigger. A goblin named Gribelnek and a monster, Quadragon, will have Taika captured in a broken down wagon. Gribelnek wants your party to scram and get lost, but that's not going to happen. Quadragon on the other hand breaks free from his chains, kills Gribelnek and attempts to kill your party. Simply kill the Quadragon which is a basic monster and not really a boss fight. After the battle, Taika is reunited with Ive as she'll join your party and the trophy will unlock.
