Frequency: First time for myself, but have seen multiple reports of the same issue.
World name: Phoenix
Character name: Djessica Taimi
Retainer name: None
NPC name: None
Monster name: Nybeth Obdilord
Class/Level: Scholar 60
Party or solo: Solo
In-game time: Not recorded
Area and coordinates: Palace of the Dead, floor 100
Housing: None
Steps:
- Enter Palace of the Dead solo with existing save on floor 91. No prior deaths have been recorded on this save.
- Clear floors 91 until floor 99 and reach floor 100.
- Engage Nybeth Obdilord and complete the duty.
- Instead of earning the achievement Pal-less Palace II, earn Pal-less Palace I instead.
note: When clearing floors 1 through 50 without failing the duty, I never earned the achievement Pal-less Palace I. Most likely that isn't working properly either.- Aware of this issue possibily happening, the advise was to record a score on floor 101 or higher.
- Enter Palace of the Dead solo with recently updated save on floor 101.
- Finish floor 101 and proceed to floor 102.
- Trigger a landmine on floor 102 and be defeated by an enemy.
- A score is recorded on floor 102 but no achievement is earned.
Below is a small transcript of the events and the timeframe of the above steps.
[12:30]The Palace of the Dead (Floors 91-100) has begun.
...
[13:07]Floor 100
...
[13:11]You defeat Nybeth Obdilord.
[13:11]You earn the achievement “Pal-less Palace I”!
[13:13]The Palace of the Dead (Floors 101-110) has begun.
[13:13]Floor 101
...
[13:16]Transference initiated!
[13:16]Floor 102
[13:17]The landmine is triggered...
[13:17]You are defeated by the deep palace sprite.
[13:17]The Palace of the Dead (Floors 101-110) has ended.
The achievement descriptions are:
Pal-less Palace I
- Clear the 1st through the 50th floors of the Palace of the Dead
solo and record a score on floor 51 or below.
Pal-less Palace II
- Clear the 1st through the 100th floors of the Palace of the Dead
solo and record a score on floor 101 or below.
In this scenario, I expected to earn Pal-less Palace II and not Pal-less Palace I, as the criteria had been met.
Not earing the Pal-less Palace II achievement basically forces me to run the entire thing from floor 1 to 100 again, which is absurd.
Either the wording in the achievement is wrong or the achievements still aren't being flagged correctly as completed.
