to unlock Plague Knight (Plague Of Shadows)
Defeating Tinker Knight
Attack Tinker Knight with the
Mobile Gear during the first phase of his battle to immediately win.
Extorting Mr. Hat
After paying off the
characters inside the Armor Outpost's hat shop, you can chase Mr. Hat around
the outpost to get your money back. Immediately after winning the battle inside
the shop, go outside to find Mr. Hat standing on top of the shop's sign. Use
the airship to get on the rooftops and jump over to him. He will give you 1,000
gold and run off. Return to the airship to find him again for another 1,000
gold before he jumps down a hole. After the two-way catapult on top of the
airship is available, go there to find him again. He will pay you the final
1,000 gold before catapulting away.
Regain lost money
After falling and dying in a
pit, you can return there and use the Fishing Rod to drop a line into the pit.
It will collect any floating bags that were dropped upon death.
Bomb Jump Blitz -
Achievement / Trophy Guide
You must defeat an Order
Knight without damaging it in any way other than the splash damage from the
standard bomb burst. Bombs can be thrown, but none should cause any damage to
it. Arcania can be used, with the same limitation, and do not cause any damage.
Berserker Brew should not be used because it damages enemies on contact.
However, Smoke Bomb is useful. You also cannot damage any of the Boss's
destructible shots with anything other than the bomb burst. For example, when
facing King Knight, you cannot allow your bombs damage any of the falling confetti.
Creep - Achievement /
Trophy Guide
Complete the King Knight and
Specter Knight stages and you will be brought to Mona's lab. Mona will be
dancing to music. Remain idle until "Creep" is earned".
Defend the Lab! -
Achievement / Trophy Guide
Use Lob Casing, Short Fuse,
and Bullet Burst. Do not throw the bombs directly into a wall and they should
never fall on the bricks. Do not constantly toss bombs at Shovel Knight. When
he is low on health, he will begin shoveling your own bombs back to you, and
they will fall and break bricks. Instead, aim Bullet Burst directly at the
horns on Shovel Knight's helmet. He will always jump up into the shot. Bullet
Burst will not break the bricks below you; also use it while you are standing.
The Staff of Surging, can also help with some extra hits. If you break a brick,
allow Shovel Knight to kill you and try again from the checkpoint. After
respawning, collect the red potion in the blocks to the left. If you die
frequently, save five red potions and use them all during the same attempt.
Get Out Of My Room! -
Achievement / Trophy Guide
In the Explodatorium, do not
drop down to the Shovel Knight battle. Instead, throw bombs at the far wall
across the pit to open a secret passage to Plague Knight's room. Once inside,
blow up a shelf to uncover some of Plague Knight's masks.
Hall Villain - Achievement
/ Trophy Guide
Complete the Hall Of Champions
normally to become locked out. The knight at the entrance will ask for 500 gold
for reentry and to test your might. Note: To clear it fully you must destroy
all paintings and defeat every boss. This can be done easier with the following
bomb ingredients and abilities:
- Casing: Lob
- Powder: Sparkler
- Fuse: Any (short fuse
recommended)
- Ability: Big Bomb/Rush
Sparkler has a good area of
effect that destroys in an "X" pattern in a 3x3 area, quickly
destroying paintings. Lob results in an arc that can hit the high paintings in
the rooms. The Big Bomb ability can eliminate most of the enemy guards easily.
If you get short on time use the Rush ability to sprint to other parts of the
hall.
Poor Oolong - Achievement
/ Trophy Guide
Collect enough Cipher Coins to
unlock all of the upgrades that Mara has for sale. Purchase all of the powders.
Oolong is found to the far right of the underground black market. He lets you
listen to the sheet music that you have collected. Go to Oolong, then jump and
throw one bomb of each type on top of his head.
Kickstarter campaign

- Give Music Sheet #23 to the
Bard in the Village and he will say "My first publicly performed lair
theme. You might say it Kickstarted my career!"
- Enter the Hall of Champions
and look at the portraits on the walls. Each of them represents someone who
donated at least $200 to fund the game's Kickstarter project.
- During the ending sequence,
you can see five enemies grouped together under the name "the Wandering
Travelers". These enemies were actually created by five people that
participated in a "Director for a Day" reward for contributing at
least $1,000 to the game's Kickstarter project. They are the "Liquid
Samurai" enemies, Reize, the Phantom Striker, the Haberdasher and Mr. Hat
Boss, and Baz.
