How to unlock the Adventurer achievement in Hand of Fate - Definitive Guide
After failing a couple of attempts on the first levels I actually earned this achievement naturally on the Queen of Plague Level.
You should have built a varied deck by now. Remove difficult encounter cards and insert cards that you earned from the easier levels. In Deck Builder pressing Y will tell you what the card gives, try to avoid cards which have combat written on them.
While luck has a lot to do with this achievement I honestly believe I earned it because of the deck I chose. If you use automatic deck builder the computer chooses the more difficult encounter cards, so make sure that you tinker with the deck and avoid inserting cards which have 3 failures to 1 success. Insert cards such as Maiden, Mr Lionel, Helpful Priest. Also remove cards which only have 1 chance of success and 2 failures.
There are also other tactics you can follow, find the quickest route to the exit, if you have the opportunity to flee, sneak or avoid encounters make sure you do. By adopting these tactics and manually creating your own deck you will earn this achievement in no time.
If you do enter into combat try and keep away from large groups, make sure you have a shield equipped and as soon as the counter icon appears make sure you counter. As soon as a red icon appears roll out of the way. By removing combat cards youll improve your chances though.

+1 for recommending Queen of Plagues. Super easy when setting all cards to harmless and dodgeable encounters.

I've done this multiple times in Story and Endless (on Normal and Hard difficulty), completed even 4 levels, and it's still not unlocking. Anyone know what I'm missing here? Do I need to delete my save file?
Edit: Started over and completely deleted my save file from local/cloud and finally unlocked it.

This one is rather simple to do you need to not take any damage for the first three levels of a deck and its kinda involves alittle luck too depending on what you get. best done early on as you can like at the jack of skulls. my best tactic would be counters ALOT and if you dont think your gonna get the counter off dodge roll alway quickly and taking on one a time curtainly helps. Also be aware of cards that will damage you its your best bet to skip the ones that give you a weapon at the risk of taking damage rather then taking a chance at taking damage as well. also its come to my attention that some people are saying that you need to avoid battles as much as well.

Do you have any suggestion as to a method (tactic) to nab this on the first go?

Like Hunter pointed out it takes a bit of luck. Mainly try getting to the exit for each level quickly and redo your deck taking out things like ambush and any others that lead to battles. That will increase your chances of getting lucky!

I would recommend trying to do this with the very lucky achievement. I suggest this because the game does not save until after each card has completed its action so, if you dashboard it after flipping a card you do not like you are able to go to the dashboard, quit the game and then relaunch it at the point prior to picking the card you had selected this works well with chance based cards where you need to get lucky to not receive damage or in some cases fight a reduced number of enemies. You can also use this trick to restart a battle if you do take damage. In my experience it will always be the same enemies so you won't be able to try for different or fewer enemies but you'll be able to give it another go.
Complete the first 3 levels of any game without taking an damage (so from entering it until leaving it by the stairs, boat, ladder, forest path etc.). I recommend doing this after your first playthrough then play against the Jack of Skulls with your own created deck. Get loads of boosts in there or card that do nothing if you decline and you'll be fine. Again, I don't recommend doing this in Endless mode.
