MrTacoNinja Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Once upon a time you had to beat all 16 Chapters on Apocalyptic difficulty AND Wicked K to pop the platinum. With the recent patch (patch 1.03) they excluded the Wicked K requirement. However, if you fight him during your first playthrough it still counts as a chapter being completed on Apocalyptic (because that's the difficulty it defaults to when you fight him and you can't lower it). What does this mean, exactly? It means that you can skip whichever regular chapter or boss chapter (boss chapters are 6, 9, 10, 13 and 16) that's giving you the most trouble and still get the platinum. Because of this I never had to fight the final boss on Apocalyptic (thank god) and my shiny new platinum unlocked when I beat Chapter 15, War Machine. Again, pick whichever regular chapter or boss chapter that's causing you the most trouble but make sure to find and unlock all Trickster keys and doors so you can fight Wicked K during your first initial playthrough of the game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grifteskymfning Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Apocalyptic is too easy to begin with, but everything that makes something trophy related somewhat easier gets a point in my book. And yes, I got the in-game bonus for killing Wicked K without getting hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltTangerine Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I fought Wicked Killington first (I think it was still on Casual but apparently all his fights are on Apocalyptic Difficulty) and then I went through each level in order on Apocalyptic and my trophy popped after Level 15, before I had to fight Moloch. I'd definitely skip Dagon, the Level 13 boss and finish everything else first. Because on Apocalyptic, he is a bit frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightblade76 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Thanks for pointing this out, I'm just missing the arena related trophy and the hard/apocalyptic ones. Any other tip to be aware of while playing on apoc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
