How to unlock the Simple ways achievement in The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III - Definitive Guide

From the game's main menu, select single player or multiplayer, then "Scenario" as game type.

Be sure the game's difficulty is "Fearless". You can choose the difficulty while setting up the set of scenarios, or by pressing cn_X anytime while you are in the set of scenarios itself to do a set "reroll".

The Powerup is a skill's upgrade that, well... power's up the skill itself with various effects such more damage or inflicting vulnerabilities to enemies.

You use powerups by pressing cn_RSl, cn_RSr or cn_RSu to activate the corresponding powerup and spending Rage Points, or cn_LB to activate the 3 powerups at the same time. See image below

This achievement requires you to complete a scenario WITHOUT using any Powerups.

There isn't a scenario type that works better than others, so it's completely up to your playstyle. If you built a character heavily depending on Powerups damage, I'd personally suggest to avoid scenarios with time limits or domovoy escape (domovoy on fearless can be quite annoying to kill, due to the upgraded hit points, and they escape through portals more easily).

Once you successfully completed a scenario without using any powerups, the achievement will unlock.

WARNING!

1. Some people reported this achievement as "bugged": it didn't unlock even after meeting the described requirements, unlocking later in the game while playing another scenario, or unlocking while meeting the requirements for another scenario achievement, such as
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing IIITough as a Coffin NailThe Tough as a Coffin Nail achievement in The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III worth 178 pointsComplete a Scenario without dying on Fearless difficulty.


2. EDIT: should your achievement bug out, try the following:
2.1. respec your character and keep only basic skills (0 powerups)
2.2. run a treasure hunt map without killing anything (thanks to Lvl 1 Cactuar and DEN EDDY for pointing this out in the comments)

3: EDIT: please, do not downvote without telling me what is wrong in the solution. It doesn't help anyone :)

4. If you are going for the "Monster Hunter Extraordinaire" achievement on your first playthrough
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing IIIMonster Hunter ExtraordinaireThe Monster Hunter Extraordinaire achievement in The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III worth 338 pointsFinish the game on Fearless without changing the difficulty throughout the Story.

I strongly suggest to AVOID playing scenarios until you actually completed the main storyline on Fearless difficulty. The "Monster Hunter Extraordinaire" is known to be buggy in various ways and trying to complete the scenarios' achievements may void the MHE unlock.

This achievement wont pop for me, even though i’ve Done it a few times. I dont even touch the right stick, or even any of the buttons at all, going thru a fearless scenario with just my right trigger, as an Elementalist using only Stream of Bolts, so it shouldn’t be activating the power up as far as i know. So annoying. So I guess i wont bother with my hardcore run or the tower defense achievements if i cant get this one to pop.

Literally ran through 10+ fearless scenarios on my Hardcore char without using any rage and this achievement still wont pop. Oddly enough my first Fearless scenario run for the deathless run awarded me the achievement for not wearing the equipment. Game is beyond bugged.

Edit: I respecd to 0 power ups on any skills and ran a treasure hunt map without killing anything, finally popped.

I was only able to get this if I re-rolled a map and completed on the first scenario. I did not get it when I completed a scenario one fearless that was not the first scenario played. I had the same issue with the Tough as a Coffin Nail achievement.

The game is unfortunately quite bugged, so the achievements itself may pop later in the game, while playing another random scenario or while tryin to pop another scenario related achievement (as happened to me on my dummy account's run).

Did you accidentally hit the LB button?

You can respec your character and exclude all Powerups from your abilities. "Better safe than sorry" :)

I got the hardcore achieve to pop without problems and the tower defense ones have been fixed, so you can go for them without problems. The game is a buggy mess, but 100% is obtainable with a little patience.

Hey everyone, Eezore here, and with this video I show you how to get this achievement. This is a tricky one to get if you don't know what your doing. The biggest thing to note: Powerups is the Rage mechanic. So if you don't use any rage mechanics, you'll get this no problem. The only other thing you need to do is play on fearless, and you'll get it. Hope the video helps!

For this achievement you must complete a map without using any of your power ups, only basic attacks. Power ups are fueled by rage, so make sure you don't have the "auto-powerup" setting on, as that will use a powerup immediately when you have enough rage, thus voiding the achievement. You can still use special skills as much as you'd like, just not the extra abilities linked to them (these are what use the rage).

Just don't touch the right stick, which consumes rage.
