How to unlock the Wail of the Banshee achievement in Trials Evolution - Definitive Guide
There is not really a 'solution' to this achievement. It's down to you, watching replays won't really help. You need to be good enough to 0 fault a hard track the majority of the time, if it takes you many tries to 0 fault any of the 5 tracks in this tournament then you need to practise some more.
The tracks in order are:
Nature Calls
Bazaar Run
Backwaters
Overpass Action
The Dome of Doom
Start with practising all these 5 tracks to the point where you can:
A) 0 Fault it 60-70% of the time
B) Know where every obstacle is off by heart
Then you want to tackle the tournament, give it a go and if you fault keep going until you finish it, then re-try it over and over improving each time until you finally reach 0 faults. This will take many many attempts. My first go it took me 15, then I got it down to 7, then 5, then 2, then 0. But I didn't just have 5 goes at it, it was more like 30-40.
Take it slow, one obstacle at a time. My time ended up being about 6 minutes which is almost double the time of the top riders.
That's pretty much what I did, sorry I can't put more here but like I said it's down to you to practise. Unfortunately you cannot watch replays of a full tournament run either.
Good luck with this achievement everyone

I'm at 5 right now after a few tries, which is heartening. Also nice is the fact that the two hardest levels are the first two. If I can get a run where I get past the first two with 0 faults, I think I might be ok for the rest of the run.
Mostly, the ramp in the middle of the first level (which I'm learning to deal with) and the last jump of the second level are the big obstacles.
I've tried a few things that I thought might help with the last jump of the bazaar:
- hitting the ramp fast and bunny hopping off (i.e. what was intended),
- stopping at the top of the ramp, doing a quick stoppie and then bunny hop (which only works like half the time), - and getting the bike up on the ramp, letting it roll backwards as far as you can without your back tire losing grip, and then gunning it, which seems to work even less than the second option.

Hey guys! I have posted some of these in other achievement guides, but here are detailed walkthroughs of mine about these 5 tracks. They are guides to help you go through with no faults and improve your time. Please check them out, I also have many other Trials track guides if you need help with other tracks. Thanks!
Feel free to neg vote but please tell me how to improve :)
edit/note: I just wanted to let you guys know these videos are some of my first, so the mic quality isn't as good as recent videos, but it's at least ok I hope!

For those looking for any inspiration. I FINALLY got this achievement after a 2 year break since getting the Platinums in Big Sands. Here's the basic breakdown of my progress. (For reference, I would try and spend 10-30 minutes practicing each time I played before stopping for the day)
- First completed run, no faulting on only nature calls —- 38 faults total
- Second completed run, no faulting on only nature calls —- 17 faults total
- Third completed run, no faulting on only nature calls —- 15 faults total
- Fourth completed run, no faulting on only nature calls —- 8 faults total
- No faults on Nature Calls and Bazaar run. Flopped on Backwaters but then no faulted the underpass one as well. Then messed up on the Dome of Doom
- Jul 30th, 2023 (started logging dates for whatever reason). No faults on Nature Calls, Bazaar Run and Backwaters. Faulted once on Overpass Action (Dumb mistake) and twice on Dome of Doom (dumb mistake / carelessness). 3 Faults total
- August 19th, 2023 - No faulted nature calls, Bazaar Run, Backwaters, and Overpass. Fumbled on the beginning of Dome of Doom
- August 22nd, 2023 - No faulted everything. Faulted on the last checkpoint on Dome of Doom. (Yes, it hurt my soul)
- August 27th, 2023 - DONE. Got it on the first run of the day that had made it to Dome of Doom. Once I made it past the barrels I knew I had it
