How to unlock the Salva Veritate achievement in Sine Mora EX - Definitive Guide
This trophy will pop after fulfilling the following requirements:
Promoted to Master Sergeant: Fulfil the requirements for Tempus Neminem Manet .
Destroy Siriad: Siriad is the last boss of the game. You will get this done upon clearing your 1st playthrough in Story mode. The boss isn't hard in Story mode (especially on Normal) and you can make use of your capsule and subweapons for an easier time.
Continue 100 times:: Although this requirement can be ground out, I suggest to keep playing the game and move on with higher promotions' requirements as you will likely Continue more than 100 times before you have completed everything else.
If you want this done right away, load up Arcade on Hard and crash into the 1st enemies and bullets to quickly suicide. After using the last Continue, restart the level via the pause menu and repeat the process until you are done.
Survive for 200 seconds without getting hit: Level 1 in Story mode on Normal difficulty or level 1 in Arcade mode on Challenging are your best bets for this one. I actually prefer Arcade mode because you can use the Reflection capsule without voiding the requirement (whereas you are forced to use the Speed Up capsule in Story mode). Remember that if you get hit and you have a Shield on you then it will count against you, therefore use your Reflection capsule and bullet-negating subweapons if you are about to get damaged.
Finish any stage with an S rating: See the Lex Talionis trophy if you need to know how your rating is determined. You will likely get at least one S rating when you get used to the game and when you are working on the later requirements, however an easy way to get it would be to go into Boss Training on Normal, choose Matouschka, the GE-22 Liberator with lv.7 firepower, a Reflection capsule and any subweapon you want (I highly recommend not to use any subweapon during the fight though). Rely on the primary weapon only and use the capsule if you are about to get hit. It is a wise idea to reach the last phase unscathed and destroy all of the turrets except one and keep shooting away from it to spend as much time as possible in A rank. When you are about to run out of time, destroy it and you should get your S rating with minimal effort.
Cut down every leg of Kolobok: Kolobok is the 1st boss of level 1 and this requirement can only be fulfilled in the 2nd phase of the fight, when it shoots with its legs. The easiest way to do this is to reach it in Arcade on Challenging mode (this requirement cannot be fulfilled in Story mode and Boss Training) with at least 1 Punk Spirit left. As soon as the 2nd phase starts, get among its many legs and use the subweapon. It should destroy most or all of its legs right away and you can easily dispatch of any legs left with your primary weapon.
Destroy 10 enemies with their own bullets: You have to play on Arcade or Score Attack and have the Reflection capsule equipped. Use the capsule to reflect the enemies' bullets right into their face and make sure you don’t shoot at all while working on this. Bigger enemies are obviously easier to hit with reflected bullets.
Finish any stage on the highest rank: Select Arcade mode on Challenging, with the GE-22 Liberator, a Reflection capsule and any subweapon you want. You need to end the 1st level while the rank gauge on the top-left is on A. Keep shooting the whole time, try not to get hit too much, use Reflection when needed without abusing it and this should be very easy to accomplish.
• Receive the rank of Master Sergeant
• Destroy "Siriad" on normal difficulty (story mode)
Despite the fact that this is, in fact, a condition for passing the game, the criterion is counted after level 6 during the flight to the final boss.
• Use continuation 100 times (in any mode)
• Survive a total of 200 seconds in a row without getting hit (in any mode)
You can't catch hits, i.e. when time is short, if you have a shield, you can safely take bullets on your chest. In story mode on "normal" in the 2nd half of the 2nd level it is completed without problems.
• Complete a level with an "S" rating or higher (any mode)
What the rating at the end of the level depends on is described above; The easiest way to get it is in training mode.
• Destroy all tentacles of the boss "Kolobok" (arcade or speed attacks)
Performed in the second half of the battle, one or two sub-weapons of the Ronotra Koss pilot cut off all tentacles.
• Destroy 10 enemies with their own bullets (arcade or speed attacks)
Performed with the "Reflection" capsule.
• Finish any level at the highest rank (arcade or attack speed)
When playing in an arcade, training or speed attacks, a scale appears under the score counter, which has 3 ranks - C, B and A. On the one hand, this is an important element of gameplay - the higher your rank, the more points you get for killing enemies, but even so enemies fire more bullets and at a much higher speed. But on the other hand, the rank will only drop below "A" if you die.
