How to unlock the Trigonal Elven System achievement in Styx: Shards of Darkness - Definitive Guide
To unlock ultimate skills, you must acquire enough skill points to unlock all pre-requisite skills within a skill tree and have a quartz. Quartz are part of the story line and the first one you will acquire will be at the end of Mission 3. If you have unlocked all gold insignias by the end of Mission 3 then, when you return to the hideout, you will have enough skill points and one quartz to unlock whichever ultimate skill you wish. Ultimate skills can be forgotten and relearned just as with normal skills. The trophy will unlock immediately as you unlock your first ultimate skill.
Ultimate skills are powerful abilities that will enhance Styx's skill set in unique ways depending on the talent tree involved. For example, the ultimate skill in the Cloning talent tree allows for either a stealthy clone, which grants Styx invisibility when controlling his clone, or a lethal clone, which allows the clone to sacrifice itself in a deadly explosion once it grabs an enemy.
The earliest you can obtain this achievement is after completing Mission 3, as this is when you are first given access to pure quartz (a necessary item to unlock an ultimate skill). You will also need to have unlocked all the skills leading up the an ultimate skill in order to learn it. Each talent tree has its own unique ultimate skill and once you have unlocked at least one of them, the achievement will be yours.
