Baba Yaga: Attempt any Wicked Vale Score Attack

How to unlock the Witchcraft for Beginners achievement in Rise of the Tomb Raider - Definitive Guide

You get this as soon as you load up a score attack for either of the Baba Yaga levels. There isn't any more to it than that. If you even try to get gold on one of the levels, you will get this.

I just cannot get this to unlock. I've got the other two Wicked Vale Score Attack achievements. I even tried uninstalling it - nothing. Any ideas?

Did you try visiting the xbox.com achievement list? That seems to knock loose achievements now.

Doesn't work for me either :/ And it's not stuck at "Unlocking..." in the achievement list.

It seems some of the dlc achievements are glitched after the new dlc was released.

Has anyone tried to delete their save game and try this achievement again? I can't get this to unlock either.

@Hitman9800 I see you finally got the achievement. What did you have to do to finally get it to pop?

Forums say to delete your save file to start unlocking achievements.

This seems to be working fine now. I got the achievement right after the countdown to start the score attack ended. Not sure if it mattered, but I added one card before starting.

@Fuzzmeister J : do you mean that as soon as you delete save files the achievements would unlock, or more that you need to delete your save game to reattempt?

@Z Squared91 : was it bugged for you previously?

Delete your whole save and start over is what forums are saying. maybe try going offline, delete the local save and try it, then sync back after you try again. I got these all at launch of the DLC so it's hard for me to test it.

Confirmed that deleting the save and re-running the game finally got me to a place where I could get the achievement.

I’m inclined to give people the benefit as I myself have gotten unwarranted hate in solution-writing. I started the first Wicked Vale score attack, Voice of God, and it didn’t unlock. So I tried the second chronological map, Return to Wicked Vale, and it unlocked on cue. Maybe it’s been patched but there’s at least still a hiccup.

This hasn't popped for me, but I did get the achievement for completing every wicked vale with a gold.

This did not pop for me on Return To The Wicked Vale but did pop on Witch's Cave. Changed the difficulty from Survivor to Adventurer too but not sure if that mattered.

Did not pop for me either on both maps. Tried it multiple times on survivor difficulty. It finnaly popped on Return to the Wicked Vale, after changing the difficulty to adventurer, as Gamerjnb925 hinted.

For those of you like me who didn't get this achievement the first time through and you're unable to get the achievement to unlock, you will need to delete your save file. You'll need to delete it persistently: see this guide - https://support.xbox.com/en-US/games/game-setup/cloud-game-s... - you'll need to select "delete everywhere", otherwise the game will pull down your broken save file each time you start it.

You will need to complete the Baba Yaga DLC in order to unlock score attack for the two Baba Yaga levels Return to the Wicked Vale and Witch's Cave - I confirmed just getting into the vale in the game won't open these areas for Score Attack. If you run through the game on the easiest difficulty and don't complete challenges or collectables, you will need about 4 to 5 hours to get to this point. Assuming that you haven't hit the same bug again, the achievement will unlock a few moments after the first score attack begins.

If you have a second xbox (XBox B) you could try pulling down your save file to that one and keep it offline while you complete this re-run. After you unlock the achievement perform the same "delete everywhere" command on the xbox you ran this second run through (XBox A), then turn it off. Xbox Cloud Save logic may say that Xbox B has a save file where the cloud doesn't and will resync it to the cloud. This is not confirmed, though.

Simple achievement, go to expeditions and choose Return to the Wicked Vale or Witch's Cave, you get this while going for "Witch Trials."
