How to unlock the I Know Guitar Techniques achievement in Rocksmith 2014 - Definitive Guide
I recommend not going for this trophy until you spent a fair amount of time in the game as you automatically make progress towards this trophy without trying. These can be done either be hitting the technique in a song or by going to Lessons and play through the practice tracks there. You only have to hit every technique once, so you can mix between playing songs and playing technique challenges. This is why you want to wait with this trophy; you will do 90-100% of the techniques when playing through the game normally, if you haven’t got the trophy after spending some time into the game, go to the technique challenges and look for techniques that you still haven’t played in the game. For example, you don’t need to do techniques like chords, sustains, power chords as you know you have already played these. A technique that is easy to miss by just playing songs is harmonics, I would recommend starting with that.
"Pinch Harmonics" is missing in the technique challenges, you will have to play that technique in a song. This can easily be done by opening riff repeater and start the last section of "Cemetery Gates" by Pantera (lead) and set the difficulty to 85. Thanks to Blazikiller for this info.
If you want to do this by doing the technique challenges here are some details that might come in handy:
- You do not need to watch the video, only play the practice track.
- Difficulty does not matter.
- Percentage does not matter (you will probably have to hit one "technique-specific note" though).
- You can completely ignore the challenges that does not have a practice track.
Potential glitch:
For some players the technique-trophies seems to be a bit glitchy and not pop when they should, but rather at random times later. If you are struggling, just keep playing songs, technique challenges and the guitarcade games
