*You will need to progress the campaign to complete this achievement. 4 of the 10 journal achievements are obtainable before progressing through the campaign. It will take several weeks to unlock this doing dailies. It will take longer if you go for the new weapons first.

This achievement is similar to the "Drizzt Do'Urden's Ally" achievement from the Maze Engine DLC. You will need to complete 10 in-game achievements that take place in the instanced chapter quests in the Cloaked Ascendancy story. The first 4 story chapters are the only chapters available without advancing the campaign. The achievements required are listed below. Along with the chapter it is unlocked in.

______________________________________________________
-These achievements task place during Chapters 1-4 when gaining access to the River District
-You can replay these quests by talking with Lord Neverember. There is a 15 minute cooldown on a quest each time you complete it.
______________________________________________________

Water Weight
-Hit a training Dummy with a water balloon at the ceremony
--This is in Chapter 1 at the spawn. There is a box with balloons and dummies right behind you.

Hope Over Experience or Experience Over Hope (You only need 1 of these for this step)
-Hope Over Experience
-Experience Over Hope
-- Do or do not open Nostura's chest at the end of Chapter 2

Kind of A Big Deal
-Talk yourself up to the door guard
--In Chapter 3, talk to the door guard and choose all the white text options until there is a special option that says "I'll show you a thing or two"

A Great Person, A Good Person, or Just Alright (You only need 1 of these for this step)
-A Good Person - Kicked the door guard only once
-A Great Person - Took the high road with the door guard
-Just Alright - Kicked the door guard too many times
--You must follow the steps for "Kind of a Big Deal" entering the hideout first to get these achievements. If you do not say "I'll show you a thing or two", you will not have the option to talk to the door guard at the end of the quest.
On your way out of the hideout, the door guard will be in the last group of enemies. Talk to him after he is defeated and pick one the options to get one of these achievements.

______________________________________________________
These achievements require at least the investigate options in the campaign to complete.
These Quests are collected from Kavatos and can be replayed using portal stones.

Better By Leaps and Bounds
-Completed the most challenging leaps in Gyrion's plane
--Complete the "Investigate Gyrion" objective in the campaign and start the new quest from Kavatos
---There will be 2 jumping sections in this quest. At the end of the 2nd jumping section, there will be 3 more platforms to the left going down. Go down these platforms to get the achievement.
*You need to jump normally and press X when you get a target area show up on the next platform. It may take a few tries, but you can start at the boss door and turn around to try again.

Part of the Party
-Unofficially added to the party of adventurers
--During the quest to investigate Kabal, you must stay at the start of the level and listen to the adventurers conversation in full.

Too Hot to Handle
-Survived Kabal's toughest challenge in his trial
--During the quest to investigate Kabal, you will will reach a bridge full of enemies. Turn left at this bridge and complete the jumping section.

Fey Marked
-Avoided the dangerous runes racing to Nostura's Fey Castle
--You get this during the quest "The Fey Castle" for completing the "Investigate Nostura" campaign task.
*- You need to press X to get past the runes if you jump over them. The first one is the only one that needs to be jumped over. There are 2 others I jump over in the video but you can go around those.
**This Achievement my be buggy/harder in a group. Anyone getting hit may void the achievement.
**You can have 1 person that can get through to the fey castle without being hit and the other people can stay at the start and defeat themselves and skip forward to the castle when the one flawless runner makes it through.
*POSSIBLE GLITCH* It seems recently this achievement won't pop normally. If you have trouble, change character in the menu while on the stag mount and log back in. This will let you run the course on foot/with your mount and should unlock the achievement when done. You will have to jump the log left of the first rune, as there is no way to walk around it.
See the video below:

Highly Skilled
-Avoided Getting hurt by Nostura's dark magic spheres racing to her Fey Castle

This achievement requires the investigate and confront options in the campaign for all 3 bosses to start Chapter 5 and complete.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Nostalgic
-After killing the boss in the chapter 5 quest, your objective will be to go to Protector's Enclave. Instead, look around the area for a barrel laying on the ground. Activate it for a very short cut scene and your last achievement.

*Progress for this achievement is tracked under the quest achievements in your journal. The "Far Realm Denier" achievement will not show in your journal until about the time you unlock the daily quests. You may start work on this achievement before that time though as the individual achievements are in the journal with the exception of "Nostalgic."

better by leaps and bounds comes from the gyrion part of the campaign. there will be two sections where you get a jump spell and must traverse gaps to the next marker. the achievement is in the second section and comes from the part where you reach the end platform. if you look to the left you will see 3 more platforms. reach the third and this achievement will pop.

By SedateRial on 15 Apr 2017 20:01

I can confirm what SedateRial said, and I get the feeling Nostalgic is in the same area, and that Part of the Party is from Kabal's.

By Breadly Weapon on 16 Apr 2017 09:08

Is it part of the investigate campaign task or confront? I won't have enough evidence for investigate until today when I get back home.

By Fuzzmeister J on 16 Apr 2017 13:34

Investigate, after you complete the campaign task you get a quest, and it's repeatable by using portal stones.

By Breadly Weapon on 16 Apr 2017 17:44

Maybe I got a bug...and I have not unlock achievement while finish MSP too...

By MIXHONG on 06 Jun 2017 16:08

You do not need any boons for this achievement.

By Fuzzmeister J on 05 Jun 2017 17:12

Thanks for all the input. The guide is now updated enough to have information on all the achievements. I will update the guide as I get through the campaign and can add more information or videos to it.

By Fuzzmeister J on 17 Apr 2017 11:35

one part i forgot to mention with the toughest leaps one, most of the platforms will start to disappear when you land on them but the first of the three platforms you need to leap on to, to get the achievement, does not disappear.

By SedateRial on 18 Apr 2017 01:13

I think some more guidance on the dark fey castle would be helpful, I haven't investigated Nostura yet but got into it with some randoms and it took everyone failing a few times to realize you have to boost over the gravity well things

By Breadly Weapon on 19 Apr 2017 01:09

Updated. Thanks. When I can get a group for Gyrion I'll make a video for that one.

By Fuzzmeister J on 19 Apr 2017 01:12

I've made it through Nostura's Castle 3 times now without taking damage or triggering a rune, but it still hasn't given me the in game achievement. 3 possible explanations:
I was with a group all 3 times, and on each time another player was hurt by a rune or orb. It's possible that if anyone in a group gets hit, it voids the achievement for everyone.
I was never the first person to the end. Maybe it only unlocks for the first person there?
I don't actually have Nostura unlocked; I just joined with other people who did. Perhaps this achievement is only unlockable by players who have completed the task.

I'm inclined to think it's the first situation, as I've completed both of Kabal's achievements and don't have that one completed in the campaign either, and I can't imagine that getting there first or last would make any difference.

By Larkias on 23 Apr 2017 07:02

I have a friend who has had issues with the achievement as well. I got both solo on the main quest version you can back out of. I've tried going forward perfectly and letting my friend skip that part and it didn't work either.

Thanks for the info. I'll make note of the buggyness of it.

By Fuzzmeister J on 23 Apr 2017 10:56

I found that with Nostura, if you get hit once by an orb (don't know about Rune), you will not be able to just die and retry. you will need to start the entire quest again via portal stone.

I had got tagged once on my second run and died to retry the section. after completing it, the achievement did not pop. only after i left via signpost and started up a new quest for the place did it unlock after completing the requirements.

By SedateRial on 24 Apr 2017 20:26

I just tested and you can have 1 person that can get through to the fey castle without being hit and the other people can stay at the start and defeat themselves and skip forward to the castle when the one flawless runner makes it through.

By Fuzzmeister J on 24 Apr 2017 21:24

Accurate guide ty +1

By God64 on 25 Apr 2017 13:02

Just finished it and nostalgic isn't during a flashback, after you beat the boss it's lying there, just examine it before you leave, which causes the flashback.

By Breadly Weapon on 05 May 2017 03:37

Just confirming everything Fuzz has is accurate and correct. I did the opposite and didn't do any of the in-game achievements for testing purposes and just completing the campaign and chapters does not unlock the achievement. You must complete all in-game achievements to unlock the Xbox achievement. Fuzz I posted your vids in my guide on XBA.com. Thanx

By Xenolith666 on 08 May 2017 20:18

Good to hear all is well. I took a detour to get the fey weapons on my cleric, so the last step is about 2 weeks for me. There will be a screenshot or video if needed for the last achievement when I get to it.

By Fuzzmeister J on 08 May 2017 22:54

I finally got the achievement (enjoying the weapons!) and added correct information and a screenshot for Nostalgic.

By Fuzzmeister J on 16 May 2017 12:04

For Part of the Party in Kabal's demi-plane, you're incorrect; you just have to sit there and listen to the ragtag group of adventurer's dialog, and you're added to their group when the dialog finishes.

By Shadow 00 Fox on 21 May 2017 18:57

Odd, it popped for me later on in the area. I'll update the guide.

By Fuzzmeister J on 21 May 2017 18:59

You must have been still close enough to them to trigger the dialog. :-) Also, maybe make a note that you can take advantage of a trick for the Fey Castle stupid achievements. You can start the stag ride part, then change character, come back in, and you aren't on the mount anymore and are much smaller/easier to avoid the spheres.

By Shadow 00 Fox on 21 May 2017 19:32

If you're in a group for Kabals, if one person stays back to listen to the adventurers, everyone in the group will unlock the achievement; that's how I got it.
It's possible that whoever said to get hit into the lava also had someone listening, and just happened to unlock it as they got knocked in.

By Larkias on 29 May 2017 08:09

^^ Yep, I found it kind of funny that the solution said to do what the one adventurer tried. lol

By Shadow 00 Fox on 29 May 2017 16:28

I have 100% of THE CLOAKED ASCENDANCY. I need to finish 4boon to unlock this achievements?

By MIXHONG on 05 Jun 2017 16:56

awesome thank you

By MISS DAYUM on 24 Jun 2017 11:27

The fey marked in game achievement won't unlock for me. Highly skilled did. Have done 4 seemingly flawless runs. No idea why it won't unlock. This was solo, for reference sake. Anyone else had probs. ( this is the Runes achievement)

By FirstParasite on 03 Jul 2017 17:07

If you hit a rune (which you can go around all of them) you have to quit and start the mission over for it to unlock. Respawning just keeps the run counter up.

By Fuzzmeister J on 03 Jul 2017 17:16

Nope, started again. Definitely didn't hit any though! Used new portal stones each time! Guess I have a personal glitch!

By FirstParasite on 03 Jul 2017 17:22

Don't think you can go round the first one though you can use x to escape. Anyway I didn't take any damage on it.

By FirstParasite on 03 Jul 2017 17:25

I have jumped the log to the left of it. It's a little tricky, but is doable.

By Fuzzmeister J on 03 Jul 2017 17:28

I'll give it a try!

By FirstParasite on 03 Jul 2017 17:42

Not sure where you jumped it. Doesn't seem to work

By FirstParasite on 03 Jul 2017 18:07

Do the glitch of change character and come back in without the elk mount? If that still works. I was able to jump/run around the first rune on the left side quite easily without the elk mount.

By Shadow 00 Fox on 03 Jul 2017 18:31

That worked. Cheers Shadow. Thanks for the Guide too Fuzz!

By FirstParasite on 03 Jul 2017 19:28

Glad you got it!

By Fuzzmeister J on 03 Jul 2017 19:31

By Shadow 00 Fox on 03 Jul 2017 22:05

Definitely suggest adding Shadow's tip to the solution. Struggled like hell to get it to register on the stag, but got it first time with the 'change character' trick.

By The Globalizer on 16 Jul 2017 03:57

Guide updated.

By Fuzzmeister J on 16 Jul 2017 04:02

Without credit.

And not very helpfully. You didn't explain it right.

By Shadow 00 Fox on 16 Jul 2017 19:23

Thanks so much! Just used Shadow's tip and it still works as of today May 30, 2018. Much easier doing it without the stag. I tried numerous times with the stag and it always screwed up. Switch character and then change back and you're good to go.

By Shadow 00 Fox on 31 May 2018 17:19

Hello, I'm looking to have this achievement "Part of the party -
Officially added to the adventurers party -
During the quest to investigate Kabal, you must stay at the beginning of the level and listen to the adventurers' conversation in its entirety. "

I make it stuck to them but nothing falls at the end of the discussion, why?

By KingDrygons on 21 Sep 2018 08:11

Shadow's tip still works as of December 18th, 2018. I did it numerous times on the Stag to no avail, and even did it on foot a few times as the guide suggests. It was only after reading the comments here and seeing I needed to jump that first one to the left that I realized what I apparently was doing wrong. Popped the first try after making the adjustment. Please adjust the solution to better reflect Shadow's advice. Otherwise a very helpful guide.

By JAMES T EVANS on 19 Dec 2018 04:27

By JAMES T EVANS on 20 Dec 2018 07:43

Had to use the change character tactic and run on foot to get this achievement. I was able to jump over the rune towards the left side of the rune and not get sucked in or "trigger" it. I wasn't able to jump over the log on the left.

By firehazardcs on 04 May 2019 01:19

I can't get the Change Character glitch to work. That very first rune seems to get triggered no matter what I do. Anyone have any other tips or tricks?

By DeadShade 84 on 14 May 2020 23:16

By DeadShade 84 on 15 May 2020 00:23

Seems to be a way to jump over it without activating the rune. If you jump over the left side at a specific angle it doesn't trigger.

By DeadShade 84 on 15 May 2020 18:02

I think the change-character-glitch is patched now. Just as DeadShade 84 said.

By SneezeSomeMilk on 10 Sep 2020 12:44

Jumping the first tree worked first time. Great tip thank you!

By KiRRAYNE on 14 Jan 2023 04:36

Did you do everything under Far Realm Denier in the achievement section of the journal like the guide says? Or are you confusing this with another achievement where you complete campaign tasks/boons for an achievement?

By Fuzzmeister J on 06 Jun 2017 17:09

nostalgic, from what the arc forums have stated, is a barrel found in the fifth chapter that you get from Neverember

By SedateRial on 16 Apr 2017 19:24

Thanks for the info. The guide has been update for Gyrion's quest and I just did Nostura's quest and made a video those those two as it would have been hard to explain where to run.

Where do you use portal stones to repeat the quest?

By Fuzzmeister J on 17 Apr 2017 01:47

In the River District, close-ish to where they have their respective rituals. I think when you accept the quest from the stone it gives you a marker. And according to post on the Arc forums: "Flashback: In Chapter 5 of the campaign, touch the barrel on the beach. (Chapter 5 only unlocks after you do all 6 tasks with the wizards: investigate/confront each wizard. So lots of people haven't reached this yet, don't be worried that you missed it.)

Kabal's zone:
Part Of The Party: Get blown into the lava.
Too Hot To handle: Before the bridge full of enemies, go left off the cliff. There's a jumping puzzle."

By Breadly Weapon on 17 Apr 2017 04:56

Yeah, it's not a problem with the achievement not unlocking, but the instance lag and general responsiveness of the controls can make it hard to get the stag to a) jump the ward, and b) sprint away before getting pulled onto the ward. (It invalidates even if you don't take damage.) It's just much easier with Shadow's tip as you can literally walk next to the ward without triggering it, whereas when you jump the ward it will trigger almost every time.

XboxAchievements

You must earn all relevant "in game" achievements to earn this achievement! (credit: Littlejay)

You are able to replay chapters at any time (once you've completed them at least once) by visiting Lord Neverember in Protector's Enclave.

Chapter 1: River District Unveiling: Water Weight: Upon entering the River District for the first time, if you turn around you should see a sparkling box; this allows you to pick up some water balloons (you do not have to equip them). Directly behind that, towards the water, are some targeting dummies. Throw a water balloon at them by pressing , and you'll receive the in-game achievement and a new title.

Chapter 2: A Crown for the King: Hope Over Experience or Experience Over Hope: You only need 1 of the in-game achievements. At the conclusion of the chapter you will speak to Nostura; after the conversation ends (choice of dialogue does not matter), a chest will appear as she leaves. If you open the chest you'll receive 'Hope over Experience' and a new title; if you leave through the gate on the left you'll receive 'Experience Over Hope' and a new title. Either way you choose you're going to get an in-game achievement.

Chapter 3: Going Undercover: Kind of a Big Deal: When you approach the door to infiltrate the hideout, the guard will tell you to get lost. Select either yellow text option to get the next speech option. Do not select an orange speech option! Select the white speech option that reads: "Out of curiousity, you sound like you don't believe in (player name)". The DoorMan goes on and you should choose: "I wouldn't doubt (player name's) power, Ive heard all the legends are true". You'll then see two more speech options and you should choose the orange/blue text option that reads: "I'll show him a thing or two later; Yes, I'll come in". Upon selecting that option the 'Kind of a big deal' in-game achievement will unlock.

A Good Person, A Great Person, or Just Alright: You must complete the previous step to earn this next in-game achievement; you only need to earn 1 of the 3. Progress through the chapter until you have to fight through the recruits and escape. When you reach the last group of recruits, the door guard will be the last enemy you fight. When you defeat him, you'll be able to speak to him, do so and you'll have a couple of options. (Leave the bouncer be) will grant you 'A Great Person'; (Kick the bouncer) once will give you 2 more options of (Leave the bouncer be) again, which will grant you 'A Good Person' or (Kick the Bouncer one more time) and then (Leave the bouncer be) you'll get 'Just Alright'.

Chapter 4: The Missing Link: None

River District: Upon completion of chapter 4 you'll be able to explore this new zone. There are many things to do and see, including delving into the new 'vaults', upgrading guard towers and new Heroic Encounters.

Currencies: You'll now need to start earning those campaign currencies. You can get them multiple ways and there are daily missions given by Ostaram Copperwise.

Mercantile Missions: daily quest, you can earn 25 EoE and 4 SoMS
There is a secondary daily mission, there are 6 to choose from; they are: The Departed, Hidden Cache, Magic Recovery, Heirloom Weapons, Family Heirlooms, and Secure the Area. Most of these require you to plunder a vault. Make sure you loot the alternate chest!
You'll eventually be able to complete a weekly quest given by Kavatos Stormeye that will net you 20 more EoE.

Abandoned Treasures: Earn these from vault clears or Heroic Encounters in RD.
Evidence of Evil: Earn these from daily and weekly quests and Heroic Encounters.
Secrets of the Many-Starred: Earn these from daily and weekly quests; but they are only used for boons.

You must complete the following Campaign tasks to further the story!
Heir Apparent: 36 Abandoned Treasures, 30 Evidence of Evil

Investigate Kabal: 48 Abandoned Treasures, 120 Evidence of Evil
Confront Kabal: 56 Abandoned Treasures, 120 Evidence of Evil

Part of the Party: Unofficially added to the party of Adventurers: When you first enter the zone and jump down a few platforms you'll come across a group of people on a platform. One guy has a fire protection spell and he decides to test it. Needless to say it doesn't work out so well. After his misfortune and the party gathers near the edge; listen to their conversation and you'll be "added" to their party. This will unlock the in-game achievement.

Too Hot to Handle: Survived Kabal's toughest challenge in his trial: Once you pass the last of the flamethrowers and reach a campfire, you have the option to cross the bridge to confront Kabal. Instead, go left from the campfire and discover another set of platforms you can jump across. Make it to the end and earn the in-game achievement.

Investigate Nostura: 48 Abandoned Treasures, 120 Evidence of Evil
Confront Nostura: 56 Abandoned Treasures, 120 Evidence of Evil

Fey Marked: Avoided the dangerous runes racing to Nostura's Fey Castle: You must avoid all the glowing runes that are along the track on the ground. Utilize the Stag's speed boost by pressing to jump them if you have too. You might be better served attempting this solo.

Highly Skilled: Avoided Getting hurt by Nostura's dark magic spheres racing to her Fey Castle: You must avoid the pink spheres that come flying towards you, or travel across the track. You might be better served attempting this solo.

Investigate Gyrion: 48 Abandoned Treasures, 120 Evidence of Evil
Confront Gyrion: 56 Abandoned Treasures, 120 Evidence of Evil

Better by Leaps and Bounds: Completed the most challenging leaps in Gyrion's plane: After the second set of jumping puzzles, and you are about to confront Gyrion for the final time, go back out of the room with the camp fire. On the outcropping, look to your right and down and you should see another platform below you. This will be tricky, because you'll have to jump and then use the leap ability to reach the platforms. But should you die, you'll be right at the last campfire. Reach the final platform and earn the in-game achievement.

These campaign tasks will take at least 30 days to complete. You might be able to shave off a day or two with the weekly quest as well as farming Heroic Encounters for Evidence of Evil.

Chapter 5: Ascendancy's End: Nostalgic: Upon the defeat of Gyrion, inspect the sparkling barrel nearby; this will trigger a flashback of sorts and netting you the in-game achievement and a new title.

You can track your progress by visiting your Journal, tab to achievements, scroll down to the "Quests" sub-section and look for "Far Realm Denier". It will list all the in-game tasks you've finished and what you're missing. When you finish everything, you'll receive the Far Realm Denier and Ascendant Triumph in-game achievements as well as the Xbox achievement.

Chapter 5 - inspect the barrel after killing the boss, a great achievement.
