Introduction:

Welcometo Arc System works Blazblue: Calamity Trigger, This game has a totalof 50 achievements which requires the use of every character and alotof training not for just ranked matches, but for character specific achievement and a Score Attack Mode that goes beyond Hell.

Ifyour not a common gamer of the Fighting genre then this game could bequite a challenge for you as opposed to the veterans of 2D fighter whomare fighting against time to get all the achievements.

Breakdown:

This can all be done in any order you choose, its all about how fast you can complete them

Practice:

Itis recommended you practice the basics at the very least for acharacter or two before you start anything else. If you practice long
enough you can also get "Your the Best! Around!" but thats highly unlikely on your first training session unless you have complete focus. There are 5 misc achievements you can earn in Training:

• Cat-a-pult
  
• Devil's Advocate
  
• This Is Important...
  
• Its Over 10,000!
  
• Activate Termination Protocol
  

just read the method under the guide


Story Mode:

Story
Mode begins with 10/12 of the Character Stories that you can play, Once youve cleared all of them you will unlock Nu's and Hakumen's Story. Finally complete their story to unlock the True Ending Story Mode. Look under "Dun Dun DUNN!" for more info. You can have everything set to easy for this

Arcade Mode:

You can two tasks while in Arcade Mode

• Clear ARCADE on Hell difficulty
  
• Unlock Everyones Astral Finish
  

Get "Dante" out of the way first, you can use continues for this achievement so don't worry if it becomes to troublesome for you. Afterwards you must clear Arcade mode with everyone with the exception of: Ragna, Nu & Rachel

Score Attack:

This will by far be the worse part in your journey to hit 100% on Blazblue. Score Attack is much harder than Hell difficulty and changing the difficulty wont affect it at all. You fight all the characters in the game with 4 of which in their Unlimited forms. Go in using your best character, or spam Jins easy specials to do this.

Set the versus rounds in your options to 1 and plug in another controller so when your about to lose you can save yourself by pressing start on the second controller.

Xbox Live:

Every online achievement is easily boostable, if you dont want to waste to much time then it is recommended that you find a good boosting partner. You dont have to win any matches however you need to get to level 30 and spectate 20 player matches which can easily be boosted. Also you need to play against every character and complete a couple other misc. achievements To boost ranked matches have one person wait after clicking Custom Match and have the other search for that partner when they click Custom Match.

Clean up:

Now you can finish up any character specific achievements you didnt get during the last couple of tasks as well as any other misc. achievements in versus mode

Conclusion:

Blazblue isnt that hard of a game to hit 100% in, they are all just very time consuming which is alright since you have to get 25 hours of
gameplay on it anyway. The only actual achievements to give you trouble are V13's 60 hit combo, Hakumens 10,000 damage combo, and the god forsaken Score attack mode. Blazblue however is a fun game so you may find yourself playing even after you get 100%.
