Preface
A simple achievement guide for the game. No solutions for quests or locations of items provided, only overall requirements to unlock each achievement.
3 achievements (Welcome To The Underlands, Cartographer, Master Cartographer) used to be bugged but should now get unlocked retroactively if you qualify.
Yes. There are two sets of mutually exclusive story achievements, multiple mutually exclusive achievements tied to side quests, and an achievement that requires to reach a certain point of the game without dying.
Two. Or one, if you backup your savefile at the right points (which you probably should do either way, considering the amount of bugs in the game).
I. Just Don’t Die LoL
Iron WillMissable!
This achievement requires to reach a certain part of the game (the second encounter with Vela in the Underlands) without ever dying before. This is easier to achieve than it might sound, as enemies in the game barely deal any damage. If you happen to die it definitely won’t be in combat.
Keep Return Home spell equipped to be able to save yourself from fatal falls, make sure not to stand directly below any descending elevators, and maybe also occasionally backup your savefile – in case floor collision decides to take a break from its job.

II. Story Achievements: Missable
If you want to get all four in one run then don’t pass the Charm skill check in the Underlands (or you’ll get permanently locked out of an achievement), then backup your savefile before the final encounter.
