How to unlock the Danger is My Middle Name achievement in Wizard of Legend - Definitive Guide

This requires you to take a random cursed artefact in 4 separate stages.

Cursed artefacts give you some form of bonus but at a cost.

HOWEVER, this is entirely RNG. I've made it to 3-3 multiple times now and never once gotten it.

The reason for this is that there are three "stores" per non-boss stage but those are random from a list of 8.

1 - Relics and potion
2 - Arcana
3 - Pinata
4 - Card swap
5 - Relic buyer
6 - Med bay
7 - Clothing merchant
8 - Cursed Relics

Each floor will have a Green, Purple, and Red shop, denoted by the color of the portal that appears in the shop. The green will always be Artisan Andres, and the purple will always be Virtuoso Iris, but the red portal will be a random one of the other NPCs.

So per run there are only 6 chances to get the cursed relic shop, you only have a 1/6 chance to get it each time, AND you have to get it on 4 separate stages as you are only allowed to take 1 of the 3 cursed relics each time.

Below is a list of all 27 Cursed Relics and their effects.



Good luck, you'll need it.

UPDATE [21/8/19]:

There have been a number of patches since submitting this solution that have made it much easier to get this achievement.

- In the area where you start your run, there is now a cursed Relic shop in the top-left [north of the relic collection chest, left of the dungeon portal.] In exchange for crystals you can buy 1 of 3 relics to start your run with and increase your chances of getting all 4 that you need.

- New Relics were added to the collection pool, including NPC tokens that will make the specified NPC spawn as one of the three in the dungeon. This includes one for the cursed relic seller, so entering the dungeon with this and starting with a bought cursed relic will get you half-way there at the start. [NOTE: I've not actually used these tokens myself so do not know if they are single use, automatic, or if they have to be dropped to spawn the NPC.]

- They also added at least 1 more NPC, maybe more, a guy who will give you all his crystals for all your gold. So now there's an even lower chance of getting the cursed relic NPC to spawn per non-boss dungeon floor.

Update: There is a small chance that a cursed relic will drop.

At this time I am not sure if it is from an enemy or a chest.

The relic seller at the top left of the hub sells cursed relics that count.

Thanks for mentioning that.

At the time of posting, that shop didn't exist.

At present the chances of getting this achievement are much higher as you are able to start your runs with 1 cursed relic [bought with crystals from the top-left area before entering the dungeon,] as well as the inclusion of shop tokens in the artefact collection that will cause their specified shop to spawn inside the dungeon [if you can get it.]

Opportunists should watch for Nox the Unfortunate to offer an item called Nox's Cloak. It replaces all non-cursed relics currently equipped with random cursed ones. If you have at least four non-cursed relics, taking Nox's Cloak will instantly unlock this achievement.

This is clearly super random. I got lucky and got four to drop by level 1-2! One room was the pinata guy but it wasn't- it was a present box with four relecs, one of which was cursed and the other three gave bonuses based on cursed relics. 1-1 and 1-2 had the guy that gives a cursed relic and one more dropped randomly.

The name of the cursed relic referenced by ManiacBoy is called Nox's Cloak.

Cursed relics can be obtained from Nox the Unfortunate who gives one relic for free or by defeating enemies inside the Chaos Trials. Note that enemies and bosses drop the relics very rarely, thus your best bet is to find Nox inside the Trials. These relics are extremely powerful but they debuff the player as well. I suggest doing this at the same time as Gotta Go Fast. Get your hands on the Pathfinder's Map relic and get inside the Trials. Press :r3: to view the map and see if the NPC is there. If he is on the map, get to him and take a cursed relic with you. If he is not on the map, then go straight for the mini-boss and so on. He looks like this (credit to the official wiki):
