How to unlock the Master Craftsman achievement in Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords - Definitive Guide

3 runes are required in order to craft a Godlike item.

The runes I used were:

Rune of Axes (Base Rune - Weapon)
Location: Blackhoof - Runekeeper: Lv25 Minotaur King

Rune of Poison (Power Rune)
Location: Snake Fang - Runekeeper: Lv25 Giant Wasp

Rune of Gods (Modifier Rune)
Location: Valley of Kings - Runekeeper: Lv40 Arkliche

Once you have all 3 runes go and craft the item at your citadel (you must ensure the item name has the term "Godlike" in order to earn the achievement).

It will be extremely tricky to craft a Godlike item so expect to take a few attempts at it.

Good luck!

Thanks for the tips, it really helped to save me time. However you're not wrong about it being tricky! It's so frustrating getting 75% of the way there only to fail.

Yeah, same here. What I did to keep myself sane, is limit myself to how many attempts I'd make a day. I made my max 5. If I didn't get it within those 5, I'd stop, and move on. It took me about 4 days. But I kept my sanity (I tried like 15 times in a row the first day).

Thanks for the info about where to get the runes. Looking for the right ones would have taken ages.

Thanks for this guide, made the achievement real easy. Found the runes right before killing Bane and it only took about 20 minutes (damn enemies liking to walk the same paths!!)

Only took me three tries to forge the item. It's a shame that I have better items (in my opinion) to use than that.

Positive vote from me, great guide.

It took longer to get the runes than crafting the item. Got it on my first try :)

You might think you have to wait until the end of the game to be able to get this achievement, but it can actually be done before rebuilding Sartek

Did it! My advice is just take it slow and think about all your moves thoroughly before you make them

Forging the godlike item can be somewhat easy if you use these tricks. I got it on my first try without really thinking what I was doing.

1- Always match the highest gems on the board. That way, you'll have a lot more time to get the anvils at the right place. That works because by playing at the top of the board, you won't disrupt the lower gems. And once you match some lower gems, there will probably be new matches to be made on the top.

2- Try not getting out of your way to match anvils. If you see you can easily make a match, go for it. Otherwise, just do as the first tip says.

3- There's no problem if you catch a single anvil with a +5 skull or with a 4-in-a-row. That goes to your total and the new board will extend your life span.

4- Don't think too much. You don't need to. Just match gems the highest on the board you can. Soon enough, there will be enough anvils on the board the easily match them.

5- Stay calm, even if you lose with one anvil to go. Becoming angry will simply hinder your skills and make you lose more, which will make you more angry, which will...

Good luck!

Tip#1 was the best advice (apart from finding the Runes) given for this achievement - thankyou, my nightmare has gone:)

I usually used the 5+ skulls, it was actually my main source of completing this. Although I did get lucky after one of them to get a 4 of a kind anvil set up shortly after.

Good guide, maybe a suggestion of adding some possible examples of Godlike weapons just a thought.

You must be one lucky son of a bitch because I've tried this achievement for a week straight with the same strategy and haven't come even close yet.

That plan worked amazing! I used the runes from the guide above but used your tips about staying at the top of the board. Got it first try! THANKS!

Perhaps the most difficult trophy in the game:

1. You need to buy a forge in the citadel. There are usually no problems with this - we buy for gold.

2. As we progress and open the map more, we will come across all sorts of houses, tents, turrets, caves and other small buildings, almost each of which contains runes, guarded (not for free) by the corresponding Rune Keeper. We defeat the guards and accumulate runes into the collection.

3. Items are created in a mini-game by connecting three runes: main, guide and power. Each rune brings some properties that add up. We mark the three runes of interest with a square, look below at the resulting complexity of the object - and go ahead, connect the hammers. Light items are nothing special, but they are quite easy to obtain and can then be sold (runes do not disappear from the collection). Trophies for light items (checked personally) are not given. More complex objects require the connection of more hammers and... nerves. For complete creativity - a list of runes in Russian:

- MAIN RUNES -

Rune of Daggers (weapon) +1 damage when dealing 3 or more damage (Forge)

Rune of Swords (weapon) +2 damage when dealing 3 or more damage (Skull Fortress)

Rune of Crowns (helmets) Adds +3 to your morale (Syria)

Rune of War (miscellaneous - flags) Adds +3 to your combat skill (Gork)

Rune of Thoughts (miscellaneous - tomes) Adds +3 to your cunning (Barthel)

Rune of Flight (armor - cloaks) Adds +3 to your air proficiency (Elenia)

Rune of Roads (miscellaneous - shoes/leggings) Adds +3 to your Earth Mastery (Ruins of Artum)

Lava Rune (Armor - Belts) Adds +3 to your Fire Mastery (Northern Kor)

Serpent Rune (miscellaneous - jewelry) Adds +3 to your Water Mastery (Tyrian)

Rune of Staves (weapon) Adds +1 to your Fire, Water, Earth and Air (Pike) proficiency

Rune of Spheres (miscellaneous - spheres) +1 to all your mana pools when an enemy casts a spell
(White Skull)

Rune of Axes (weapon) +3 damage when dealing 6 or more damage (Black Hoof)

Rune of Music (miscellaneous - tools) +1 to all your mana pools when you collect a combination of 4 or 5 stones (Hornburg)

Rune of Jewels (necklaces (head)) +1 damage per full mana when dealing 3 or more damage (Blood Moon)

Rune of Shields (miscellaneous - shields) Deal +1 damage to the enemy whenever you receive 6 or more damage (Ar)


- GUIDING RUNES -

Rune of Craft - Basic guiding rune. Does not affect item properties (Forge)

Rune of Mastery - Adds +2 to the ability of the Primary Rune (Blizzard)

Goblin Rune - Adds +1 to Primary Rune ability and +25% to Power Rune ability
(Bone head)

Dwarf Rune - Adds +2 to Primary Rune ability and +50% to Power Rune ability
(Hammer Pass)

Rune of the Magi - Adds +100% to Power Rune ability (Tower of Eldros)

Chaos Rune - Reduces the ability of the Main rune by 1 and +150% to the ability of the Power rune
(Labyrinth of Sartek)

Elven Rune - Adds +1 to Primary Rune ability and +75% to Power Rune ability
(Alfland)

Rune of the Giants - Adds +3 to the ability of the Main Rune and reduces the abilities of the Power Rune (Great Path) by 50%.

Rune of Dragons - Adds +4 to Primary Rune ability
(Valley of Dragons)

Rune of the Gods - Adds +3 to the ability of the Main rune and +100% to the ability of the Power rune
(Valley of the Kings)


- POWER RUNES -

Rune of Fire - Gives +2 red mana at the beginning of each battle (Forge)

Earth Rune - Grants +2 green mana at the start of each battle (Skellheim)

Rune of Air - Gives +2 yellow mana at the beginning of each battle (Agarian Pass)

Rune of Water - Gives +2 blue mana at the beginning of each battle (Bone Bridge)

Troll Rune - Gives +8 to max. health at the beginning of the battle (Teyra)

Shell Rune - Adds +4% to water resistance (Ragnar's Shore)

Rune of the Caves - Adds +4% to earth resistance (Gornakov failure)

Rune of Glass - Adds +4% to air resistance (Ice Keep)

Rune of Ice - Adds +4% to Fire Resistance (Sea of ​​Ice)

Rune of Poison - Gives a 20% chance of causing poison upon dealing damage.
(Snake Fang)

Rune of Plague - Has a 20% chance of causing disease on damage.
(Werkrs)

Rune of Greed - Gives +20 gold for each victory in battle (Gildor)

Rune of Life - Adds +20 to experience for each victory in battle (Lake of Blood)

4. To obtain a Godlike item as required by the trophy, the difficulty status of the complete item must be "Godlike" . This does not bode well for anything, but only nerves and a wild number of attempts to knock out 21 hammers!

Some advice from an "experienced":
- After receiving one or more hammers, the board is updated
- Try to leave one move at the bottom “in reserve”
- When “Skull+5” explodes near a hammer, the hammer is destroyed
- When connecting any 4 stones in a row/column, this row/column is completely destroyed, including the hammers. Great opportunity to get hammers!

After the 131st attempt, he still connected the Rune of Axes + Rune of the Gods + Rune of Poison. There was a lot of swearing at the developers, but the result was a weapon that adds 6 when dealing 6 damage and plus a 40% chance of poisoning the enemy every turn.
