How to unlock the Close Shave achievement in Hand of Fate - Definitive Guide

The best way to do this is to get into a battle, take down all but one guy and let him take you down to less than 5 health. Best to do it early on in story mode because once you get past the first three dungeons, the bandits get stronger and can start throwing knives that can make it more difficult to win.

The main thing is once there is one guy and he has gotten you down to the required less than 5 health, keep dodging by pressing Y whenever the bandit is about to attack to avoid taking any more damage.

You can also check out my solution for

Hand of FateVery Brave or Very StupidThe Very Brave or Very Stupid achievement in Hand of Fate worth 39 pointsEnter a combat with less than 5 health remaining.


These can be done at the same time, just follow the solution for very brave or very stupid and if you do not have this achievement it you will get it following that solution.

Just a note: I finished a battle last night with EXACTLY 5 health and got no achievement.
MUST BE LESS THAN 5.

Ouch, I will change that last sentence since it isn't 100% accurate. Good luck to you!

Did you do it on the easiest difficulty? After I wrote these they included an easier difficulty that removed the ability to get some (or all) of the achievements.

Hmm, that would explain why I've only been able to get that 1 random achievement in the game so far. I'll have to look into it. I didn't notice a difficulty option though. Thanks

You have life and when you get hit, you will lose life so win a fight with less than 5 life for the trophy to pop. This probably will happen over time; if not then make sure you fight a weak enemy as stronger enemies hit harder so it's more difficult to end on 1, 2, 3 or 4 health without dying. Fight some skulls, kill all but 1 and let it hit you until you get below 5 then kill the last enemy, and it will pop.

You just need to win the battle so that you have less than 5 lives at the end. There is no need to start the battle with health less than 5. I performed it on plague-ridden rats.
