Hi, this is my first complete guide, hope it helps you! I really enjoyed this game, so I tried to share some of my personal experience here too!

This is a guide for the people trying to get all Thymesia achievements! I put an amount of time writing this to try to help people, if it is/was helpful to you! Rate this guide!! Thank you!

Good luck!

A Helpful tip

You can press CTRL+F and type the name of the achievements you still don't have it, and press ENTER.

• Test Ride (1/12)
  Reave a plague weapon for the first time.
  
  Just hold RT (the claw button) to steal enemy plague weapon!

• Take a break (2/12)
  Rest at the beacon for the first time.
  
  Click in the first beacon you found in the game (bonfire) and select REST

• Memory Interrupted (3/12)
  Dead for the first time.
  
  Just Die, this will be inevitable haha.

• Darkness!!! (4/12)
  Finish the tutorial.
  
  Another easy task... learn the basics!

• Start Recalling (5/12)
  Start recalling for the first time
  
  Start the first level: Sea of Trees! DONE!!

• It's mine now! (6/12)
  Unlock a plague weapon for the first time.
  
  Collect a skill shard from slaying an enemy, then unlock a plague skill in the beacon!

• Sea of Trees (7/12)
  Finish "Sea of Trees" level.
  
  Complete the first main stage of the game

• Royal Garden (8/12)
  Finish "Royal Garden" level
  
  Complete the second main stage of the game

• Hermes Fortress (9/12)
  Finish "Hermes Fortress" level.
  
  Complete the third main stage of the game

• Alchemist (10/12)
  Fully upgrade a potion.
  
  For this one you need some ALCHEMY ENHANCERS, this item drop from generals, me personally upgraded the talents "Strategy" with 3 points on LUCK, and then spammed MUTADED ODUR (the 4/4 sub mission from SEA OF TREES) cause its my favorite boss, you will get the A.E and also tentacle skill shards for a future Silver Achievement (9/23). You can also play the game normally for this mission and eventually you'll drop the A.E.

• Is this Alchemy? (11/12)
  Craft a potion recipe for the first time
  
  So, for this one you need to combine 3 ingredients to get an additional effect in your desired potion, this is the 'hardest' mission from the Bronze Achievements - you can check in the POTION CRAFT & INGREDIENTS sections also in this guide to see how to get a specific ingredient!

• Rolling Required Ahead (12/12)
  Break 1000 barrels.
  
  Pretty straight foward, just break barrels, if you are aware of this one early, you get easily as you progress, but if you need a 'barrels farm', you may go to HERMES FORTRESS on second beacon next to the door. You can reset the barrels by resting on the beacon
  
  You can check my 13 seconds vídeo too, clicking HERE
  

• Odur (1/23)
  Defeat Odur.
  
  Defeat Odur, the first real boss in the game, you find him in the first stage, Sea of Tress. It may take you a while, but its really satisfying when you slay him. The secret is to learn to parry, it's really predictable

• Mutated Odur (2/23)
  Defeat Mutated Odur.
  
  This one is pretty tough the first time you face him. It took me 1 hour and a half to defeat him the first time (I am pretty bad, I know) but now I can defeat him in a minute, it's my favorite boss, he has one of my favorite plague skills in the game (the tentacles), really good boss to farm your first ability to max level, you'll find him at the Sea of trees sub mission 4

• The Hanged Queen (3/23)
  Defeat The Hanged Queen.
  
  You find her in Royal Garden first mission, she is WAY easier than Odur in my opinion, I guess it's because we are stronger with talents and levels when we face her (Highly recommended you do the sub missions before facing her), Just be careful with her ultimate (She screams before ulting, so run away from her) And she also heals, try to hit her while she heals, cause that decreases drastically the amount of healing.

• God of the Fools (4/23)
  Defeat God of the Fools.
  
  This boss you need to destroy 5 cysts, you'll find him at Sea of tress sub mission 3. The only real challenge is to climb the second ladder, there is a 'ninja girl' throwing spikes on you, so kite her until she do a melee attacking animation, then run to the ladder and climb it.

• Sound of the Abyss (5/23)
  Defeat Sound of the Abyss.
  
  This is a boss from Royal Garden sub mission, pretty easy too, just avoid the red circles, and stay close to the cave, because the boss does an attack which takes all the arena except if you stay at the beginning of the arena! Just hit the head after he does this attack.

• Varg (6/23)
  Defeat Varg.
  
  Varg is a boss similar to Odur in strategy, just memorize the parries, only thing to be aware of is the second phase instant ultimate (RUN AWAY)! Relatively easy too. You'll find him at Hermes Fortress

• Urd (7/23)
  Defeat Urd
  
  You can find Urd on Hermes fortress sub mission 1, she is tricky, but easy to master. She has fast attacks, just spam parries. She also runs a lot from you, so keep chasing her.

• Corvus (8/23)
  Defeat Corvus.
  
  Finally the last boss: YOU. That is a really good fight, at this stage of the game you'll have a good build and not take too long on this fight, Corvus is pretty fast and has two life stages too, you find him at Sea of memories

• Weapon Master (9/23)
  Fully upgrade a plague weapon for the first time.
  
  For this one, upgrade ANY of your plague skills to maximum by farming any monster, me personally farmed Odur's Tentacles in Sea of Trees sub mission 4, but it can be any. You can check the Plague Wapons Location/Farm also in this Guide.

• Herb Gatherer (10/23)
  Collect all potion ingredients.
  
  Just check the INGREDIENTS section on this guide to find all the ingredients (12 IN TOTAL)

• Completed Memory (11/23)
  Finish all levels.
  
  Finish all stages of the Game, main mission and sub missions

• Plague Doctor (12/23)
  Craft all potion recipes.
  
  This is pretty easy too once you got all the ingredients, just check the POTION CRAFT section also in this guide to learn the recipes

• Peak Performance (13/23)
  Reach max level.
  
  The maximum level is 50, you can get really fast farming Corvus, he drops 10k every fight

• Blessing of Pure Blood (14/23)
  Reach the "Blessing of Pure Blood" ending.
  
  Combine: Varg's Core + Urd's Core

• Power of Vile Blood (15/23)
  Reach the "Power of Vile Blood" ending.
  
  Combine: Fool's God's Core + Sound of the Abyss' Core

• Chaotic Power (16/23)
  Reach the "Chaotic Power" ending.
  
  For this one you need to combine two different cores from the other endings( Fool's God's Core + Urd's Core would work for example, but it can be any)

• Power of Cleansing (17/23)
  Reach the "Power of Cleasing" ending.
  
  Combine: Mutated Odur's Core + The Hanged Queen's Core
  
  Okay, so this last two endings are a little important for you understand. This ending, and Harmonized Force are the same combination. On steam, every time I combine this two cores and let the game run, Power of Cleansing is the ending that I get. For the Harmonized Force ending, check below to see how I got it

• Harmonized Force (18/23)
  Reach the "Harmonized Force" ending.
  
  Combine: Mutated Odur's Core + The Hanged Queen's Core
  
  This ending took me a lot to get, cause apparently is bugged, but YOU CAN STILL DO IT with this steps:
  On steam, click on Settings, In-game, and make sure the Steam Overlay is on!
  After that, combine the two cores!
  The gate will open, and as soon as you click the fused core (After the command active) Press shift+tab to active steam overlay on your keyboard (I played on controller, but shift+tab still works on the keyboard) and then wait until the Ending text appears, this was the only way I found to get this ending.

• Memory Seeker (01/02)
  Reach all endings.
  
  After all endings, this achievement will also be acquired.

• Piece of Cake (19/23)
  Defeat any boss without using potion.
  
  You can do this with your boss of choice, me personally did with Mutaded Odur cause I already mentioned it's my favorite boss, you can check how I did clicking here, in my 1:13 video! if you wish.
  
  On my build my main damage resource comes from the plague weapon Knive that I farmed on the Rosemary girl (check the INGREDIENTS tab avaiable in this guide to see how to find her).

• YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!! (20/23)
  Empty the first health bar of Varg in the tutorial.
  
  This is a hard mission until you master it, the reason is: You die = you have to do all the tutorial again!
  SO, I extremely recommend you to do a backup of your save before that! I will show you how:
  First step, click on a New Game and select an empty slot for your Tutorial save
  after that, do the basic tutorial, rest on the beacon and run until the Boss arena.
  Skip the cutscene and press ALT+F4 (Doing this, after you enter the game again, you start on the arena entry instead of the beacon)
  
  Now you need the backup folder: Press Windows+R and type %APPDATA%
  Then find the folder Local and select PlagueProject after that Saved and copy the folder with just numbers to a different directory. After that, face the boss, If you die, close the game, delete the 'numbers folder' in Saved directory, and copy-paste the backup 'number folder' again in the the Saved directory.
  
  Done!! The remmaining 3 silver achievements I separated in 3 tabs, cause they need more attention, they are:
  
  
  Good Listener
  
  Memory Weaver
  
  Lord of Plague

Alright, so in the game there are ingredients you can get to craft potions, some of them combined can result in additional effects for your character, check the Potion Craft section to see the recipes and buffs

Introduction

This one is a easy achievement too, the only one you might be missing is the (03/11) if you don't explore a lot (I missed this one).

HOW to get the Collectables

Odur's Core: Slay Odur in Sea Of trees.(01/11)

Transformation Experiment Report 01: Avaiable at Philosopher’s Hill after defeating Odur. Behind the right entrance (02/11)

Transformation Experiment Report 02: Travel to Sea of Trees Sub mission 1. Near to the end of the stage you will come across a ladder covered with poison. BEFORE you climb it these stairs, turn around and look for a ladder at the other end on the same floor. It is on top. (03/11)

Fool's God's Core: Slay the God Of The Fools in Sea Of Trees sub mission - God Of The Fools.(04/11)

Mutated Odur's Core: Slay the “Mutated Odur” in Sea Of Trees sub mission - Mutated Odur.(05/11)

The Hanged Queen's Core: Slay the Hanged Queen in Royal Garden.(06/11)

Hermes' Answer: Research Notebook: Avaiable at Philosopher’s Hill after slaying the Hanged Queen, near the gate to the left.(07/11)

Hermes' Answer: Formula Research: This is the conclusion requisite of Royal Garden sub mission and is found at the end of the stage.(08/11)

Sound Of The Abyss' Core: Slay the Sound Of The Abyss in Royal Garden - Underground Laboratory. (09/11)

Varg's Core: Slay the boss “Varg” in Hermes Fortress. (10/11)

Urd's Core: Slay the boss “Urd” in Hermes Fortress - sub mission 1. (11/11)

The next step is...

You need to talk with Aisemy (The little girl) And show all the collectables you found to her..

After that, you need to do the same thing but this time, with Emerald (A woman with fur coat), You can find her at the Royal Garden stage, she is in the blood floor part. Not too hard to find just rush full straight at the library and turn full right (kinda returning in the same direction) when possible. After that you'll get:

• Good Listener (22/23)
  Collect all lore.

So... for this achievement, the order of the collectables are organized by stages BUT
if you want a specific Bit , you can press CTRL+F and type "b" followed by the number of Bit you want. Type "B01" (two digits) for example, and you get the location of the first bit (in-game list order): Twilight Circus Poster...
At the first part of this section you can check the in-game list order

You can also type the bit name or location!

IMPORTANT
Also, don't panic LIKE I DID if you didn't got some tutorial bits at your first time play... I forgot to collect 2 Bits, but fortunaly you can still get them in Hermes Fortress Sub Mission 1, they are at the same spot of the tutorial, you find them as you progress in the stage!


You may ask why there are no exact location for each of the bits in this guide... So, this is the explanation..
I thought about recording a video about every single spot, BUT there is already A LOT of good quality contents of this type on youtube.. So the approach I recommend you to do is: Compare the bits you have missing, and find the list spots and stage location (Provided in this section).
After that, just type in Youtube:
