How to unlock the Lightless achievement in Ori and the Will of the Wisps - Definitive Guide

Edit: The patch appears to have solved achievement issues.

WARNING: Taking the FREE map from lupo in Willow's End appears to void this, since it has a spirit light "cost" (even though it is zero).

The patch to fix achievements has been released.  However, it disables fast travel from the map without purchasing the ability, which *could* impact trying to combine lightless, shardless, and look at the time (speedrun).  However, I do firmly believe you can speedrun the game in under four hours without fast-travel from map. My speedrun using this feature was 2h20min. Not being able to fast travel at any time wouldnt add more than another hour to my run.  I *believe* you can still fast travel from spirit well to spirit well without buying this, as well. Just not from anywhere. A user below already did a 3h20min run without buying the fast travel upgrade.

For this one, do not spend ANY spirit light. Not just at shops, even buying a map will void it. And anytime you buy something the game saves so just avoid talking to any sellers at all.

It works on easy. Either Xbox Live issues or today's 4.9gb update broke the game completion achievements. I popped shardless and lightless on Easy myself.

Just stop right before the final boss fight on speedrun and hard mode. Once they fix things you can then just do the final boss and pop any of the game completion achievements (including this one). Dont delete your save file for this one!

I just beat the game post-patch on Easy in 3h20min. I started the playthrough after the patch was released, and beat it without buying the fast travel upgrade. The only things I bought were the glade well using ore and the "free" map for the willow's end area. I did not get the achievement.

I'm not sure which of these cause it not to trigger because neither actually cost me any light. My suspicion is that buying that last map is the culprit. I just wanted to add that data to the pool.

Yes buying that map counts as a light transaction even though it is free. Spendi g gorlek ore does not impact this achievement.

Doing the long sidequest unveiling the map items doesn't count against I would assume?

Nope the sidequests do not preclude this achievement.

Know this might be dumb, but spending Gorlek Ore does not void the Lightless/Shardless achievements right?

Even after the patch, this is very doable when following the video. I could not teleport at will, but you will be running to get to shines to warp less than 10 minutes. I was too careful and saved too often worried about re-doing things and I should not have stressed that much. I am not supremely talented at the game and just finished less than 2:40.

I just beat the game on hard without equipping the shards and so I thought spirit light but I didn't get the spirit light achievement. Guess I'm gonna have to try that again on easy my next playthrough ugh.

I started the playthrough after the patch and I 've just beat the game. I bought the map in Willow's End and It cost some Spirit light. Even though in the end the achievement was achieved, although It has not pop up.

*MISSABLE*

This is recommended to be combined with "Look at the Time", especially when the difficulty is set on Easy because Ori will have no access to many powerful abilities and Spirit Shards.

The last map sold by the cartographer Lupo in Willow's End, despite it costing no Spirit Light, is considered a purchase and is reported to void this achievement.

At the end of the game, in a location with infected hearts, you have the opportunity to receive a free map of this zone. Don’t take it, although it’s free, the achievement doesn’t drop.

The above tip is not correct at all, here you need to complete the game without wasting LIGHT, orange lights, without buying anything (cards too, as well as teleport, and yes, you have to run around, so get used to it! And even when you buy, the game is saved, so be careful, don’t buy Nothing,

My tip was that even a free purchase counts as a waste. Can you build wells?
