Tribes of Midgard Trophy Guide

You can earn the “Back to Asgard” trophy in both Survival Mode and Saga Mode, but you’re guaranteed to earn it in a solo Survival Mode Playthrough.

If you’re playing with friends, you will need to make sure you land the killing blow on this boss. If you fail to do so, don’t worry, as she’ll respawn at her arena after a few in-game days have passed.

The Thunder Jotunn is the first boss you need to fight for the Survival Mode’s prologue sequence and will be marked on your map when it’s time to face her. She is weak to Dark type weapons and attacks.

You can earn the “Back to Múspelheim” trophy in both Survival Mode and Saga Mode, but you’re guaranteed to earn it in a solo Survival Mode Playthrough.

If you’re playing with friends, you will need to make sure you land the killing blow on this boss. If you fail to do so, don’t worry, as he’ll respawn at his arena after a few in-game days have passed.

The Fire Jotunn is the second boss you need to fight for the Survival Mode’s prologue sequence and will be marked on your map when it’s time to face him. He is weak to Ice type weapons and attacks, and you’ll need significant heat resistance to be able to reach him.

You can earn the “Back to Jötunheim” trophy in both Survival Mode and Saga Mode, but you’re guaranteed to earn it in a solo Survival Mode Playthrough.

If you’re playing with friends, you will need to make sure you land the killing blow on this boss. If you fail to do so, don’t worry, as he’ll respawn at his arena after a few in-game days have passed.

The Ice Jotunn is the third boss you need to fight for the Survival Mode’s prologue sequence and will be marked on your map when it’s time to face him. He is weak to Fire type weapons and attacks, and you’ll need significant cold resistance to be able to reach him.

You can earn the “Back to Niflheim” trophy in both Survival Mode and Saga Mode, but you’re guaranteed to earn it in a solo Survival Mode Playthrough.

If you’re playing with friends, you will need to make sure you land the killing blow on this boss. If you fail to do so, don’t worry, as she’ll respawn at her arena after a few in-game days have passed.

The Dark Jotunn is the fourth boss you need to fight for the Survival Mode’s prologue sequence and will be marked on your map when it’s time to face her. She is weak to Thunder type weapons and attacks.

To unlock the “Common Crafter” trophy, you simply need to craft any common-grade tool, weapon, armor, construct, shield–anything you can craft, really! Common items have a gray background and are, well, very common! You should naturally earn this trophy in a Survival Mode playthrough very early on.

You can also earn this trophy in Saga Mode by having a Villager craft you something of Common grade.

Uncommon items have a green background, you will unlock Uncommon Crafter the first time you craft any item of this grade.

In Saga Mode, you would need to have a Villager craft an uncommon-grade item for you.

Rare items have a blue background, you will unlock Rare Crafter the first time you craft any item of this grade.

In Saga Mode, you would need to have a Villager craft a rare-grade item for you.

Epic items have a purple background, you will unlock Epic Crafter the first time you craft any item of this grade.

In Saga Mode, you would need to have a Villager craft an epic-grade item for you.

Legendary items have a gold background, you will unlock Legendary Crafter the first time you craft any item of this grade.

Legendary-grade items are by far the hardest to craft. They’ll typically require rare resources that you’ll sometimes need to farm from Jotunn bosses, and your crafting equipment will need to be upgraded as much as possible.

For example, I made the “Elivagar Bow” which required Golden Horns and crowns from powerful Helthing creatures to craft on a Level 5 Weapon Furnace.

In Saga Mode, you would need to have a Villager craft a legendary-grade item for you.

You will unlock the “Surthrival” trophy when you reach Day 100 in any Survival Mode playthrough. You can see which day you’re currently on in the upper-right corner of the HUD, above where it also tells you the current in-game year.

The most frustrating aspect of this trophy is that there really isn’t 100 in-game days-worth of content in Survival Mode.

My friend and I had maxed out our crafting equipment and defeated all 9 bosses in just 43 days. When I returned to our save to continue the grind to Day 100, I’d done every Quest by day 50. Only to find that the quests respawn after a few in-game days so that was kind of pointless too.

There were still 50 in-game days ahead of me. Honestly, I just started leaving the game running in the background. Things are relatively safe near the Seed of Yggdrasil so I didn’t need to worry about getting attacked or killed. Annoyingly, though, if you don’t at least come back and wiggle the thumb sticks every now and then, you will get kicked for inactivity…

A day in Survival Mode is an excruciating 20 minutes long. Meaning that 100 of these days will consume a whopping 33 hours of your time. If you fancy it, you could play some Saga Mode now and leave the rest of this grind until later, it’s up to you.

You can earn the “Like Svaðilfari” trophy in Survival Mode and Saga Mode. In Saga Mode, your best bet is to use the Warden Class and then acquire the skill that allows them to craft constructs on the fly. Then, in a spare moment, you can litter the ground with floor tiles and ramps and whatever else you want to throw down until you eventually reach 100 constructs crafted.

That said, I find it more sensible to approach this in Survival Mode, since you have a lot of time to kill. Gathering the resources, crafting constructs, and then placing 100 of them will help you kill… maybe an hour, probably less.

I recommend placing them near the Seed of Yggdrasil because they won’t get attached and destroyed there.

You’ll first want to craft a Construction Bench and then place it in the world. From that, you can then craft floor tiles, walls, roofs, doors, pillars, fences, stairs, the list goes on. There’s never really any reason to use any of this stuff and my friend and I beat the game without ever using these constructs.

If you want to kill some time, maybe take the time to build yourself a complex base with dedicated areas for crafting, storage, sleeping, etc.

Or just craft 100 of any item and then litter your base with it just to get the trophy over with. I won’t judge.

The “Friend in Need” trophy is the only trophy for which you must play with someone else. Be that a friend you invite, someone you meet up with in-game, or some random dude you begged on a forum to help you out.

You can actually earn this in Saga Mode too but, again, you have a lot of time to kill in Survival Mode, so why not subject a friend to joining you.

Basically, you just need that friend to get downed by an enemy. Any enemy. Just have them stand still until they’re downed. Once that happens, run up to them and then hold until they’re revived.

Make sure you’re quick, though. They have a small pool of health when downed and if they continue to take damage, they will fully die, and you’ll no longer be able to revive them. You can, of course, just try again immediately, though.

So, I’m sure that at some point this was a tricky trophy to earn. You probably had to save up Golden Horns or spend your own money on Platinum Coins to then purchase a pet from the in-game store and then, with it equipped, load up a Survival or Saga mode game and finally pop the trophy.

However, it seems as though everyone now starts the game with a free Raven pet, which is equipped by default. So you should earn the Paw Paw trophy naturally and unavoidably from the very first time you start a Survival or Saga mode playthrough.

When you select Saga Mode from the Main Menu, you’ll see an option at the bottom-left of the HUD called “Tutorial.”

To earn the “A Viking is Bjorn” trophy, select this option and then complete the short tutorial sequence. It should only take 10 minutes or so and introduces you to the way things are done in Saga Mode.

The “Quests” mentioned in this trophy’s description does not refer to the Side-Quests you can acquire from Quest Boards. When you interact with the Santuary at the start of a Sage Mode playthrough, you will be able to select a main Saga Quest to take on. There are 5; one of which is a prologue and does not count towards this trophy, and then four others each tied to a Saga Mode boss, such as Fenrir, Jormungandr, Surtr, or Hel.

To unlock the Ragnarök trophy, you must beat any one of the four boss-focused Saga Quests.

They are not easy, finding each boss is a chore, and if you don’t do it quick enough the Blood Moon will rise, and you’ll be stuck in an eternal night, constantly defending your village from attacking Helthing forces. The easiest one is obviously Fenrir, and it’s even easier to accomplish with a team of friends.

However, you will need to deal the final blow on the final boss to unlock Valhalla Can Wait, which is obviously a bit trickier if there’s more than one of you.

To unlock the “Valhalla Can Wait” trophy, you’ll need to reach any boss at the end of a Saga Quest (see Ragnarök) and then deal the finishing blow on that boss. This is obviously not too difficult to pull off if you’re playing solo, but if you’re playing with friends you’ll need to co-ordinate with them to agree who gets to finish the boss off.

In Saga Mode, at night, Helthings will come to attack your village. If they get in through the gates of your village (or you open the gates and let them in), the villagers inside will help you fight them and keep them away from the Seed of Yggdrasil at the center.

To unlock the “Villager in Need” trophy, you’ll first need one of your villagers to get downed by an enemy Helthing (or Jotunn, if it comes to that).

When this happens, you can approach the downed villager and hold to revive them, unlocking the trophy when they’re back on their feet!

To unlock the “Dragonchild” trophy, you need to be holding at least 10,000 souls at any point in a Saga Mode playthrough. This can be tricky to accumulate because you’ll constantly be using your souls to upgrade the village facilities and keep the Seed of Yggdrasil alive.

However, if you take the time to build the nearby quarries in your playthrough, you’ll have a steady supply of resources being sent direct to the War Chest in your village each day. If you collect all of these resources (preferably when you’re done with your Playthrough and ready to leave via the Bifrost) you can then take those resources to any of the various merchants (marked as a blue coin pouch on your map), you’ll be able to sell them all in exchange for more souls.

Sell absolutely everything in your war chest, and you should be able to accumulate 10,000 souls pretty quickly.

You will unlock the “New Viking” trophy at Valhalla Level 2. See New Einherjar.

You will unlock the “New Hersir” trophy at Valhalla Level 5. See New Einherjar.

You will unlock the “New Jarl” trophy at Valhalla Level 10. See New Einherjar.

You will unlock the “New Konungr” trophy at Valhalla Level 25. See New Einherjar.

Your Valhalla Level is separate from your character level and is tied to your account as a whole, rather than individual playthroughs. You will earn Valhalla EXP as you play in both Saga and Survival Mode, so you should naturally be progressing this trophy as you work on other trophies.

The maximum Valhalla Level is 50, so you will need to continue collecting Valhalla Level until you reach Level 50, at which point the New Einherjar trophy will unlock!

The “Make it Rain” trophy will unlock when you’ve spent a total of 10,000 souls across all Survival and Saga playthroughs. This is cumulative so you don’t need to try and attempt it in a single playthrough. You will need to spend one million souls for the Make it Hail trophy.

The “Make it Pour” trophy will unlock when you’ve spent a total of 100,000 souls across all Survival and Saga playthroughs. This is cumulative so you don’t need to try and attempt it in a single playthrough. You will need to spend one million souls for the Make it Hail trophy.

The “Make it Hail” trophy will unlock when you’ve spent a total of 10,000 souls across all Survival and Saga playthroughs. This is cumulative so you don’t need to try and attempt it in a single playthrough.

In Survival Mode, there is not much to spend Souls on, as most things cost resources instead. However, farming souls in Survival Mode isn’t too difficult as everything you do will earn you souls. You can also sell your equipment and resources to Sindri’s Foundry once you unlock it by defeating Fenrir and then talking to Eira Foot-Crushed back at the sanctuary.

Once you’ve racked up some souls, you can go to any Sorcerer and purchase Soul Potions for 700 Souls. Drinking them will return 500 souls to you. This is obviously a long-winded way to go about it, but it’s an effective way to kill time for the Surthrival Trophy!

Alternatively, as Saga Mode involves spending a lot of souls on a lot of things, you could just complete multiple Saga Mode playthroughs until you’ve spent enough souls. You can monitor your progress via the “Challenges” tab in the pause menu and main menu.
