STAINLESS EXTINCTION – All Sword Locations
Unlocking STAINLESS EXTINCTION demands that you gather every blade available in the campaign. Missing even one weapon prevents the achievement from triggering.
Your starting blade serves as the first entry in your weapon inventory. Every subsequent blade must be looted from specific battlefields or retrieved from hidden stones across the wilderness.
Sword 2 Location

Begin by taking down Kasei the Tyrant during your primary questline.
Once the beast falls, exit the combat grounds and push directly ahead along the main path. The weapon sits lodged firmly within a visible boulder in front of you.
Sword 3 Location

Engage and eliminate Mokusei, the towering Sauropod boss.
Inspect the center of the arena immediately after the fight concludes. If the weapon fails to spawn instantly, step outside the boundary briefly and re-enter to claim it.
Sword 4 Location

Track down and defeat Ketsuro inside the perimeter of Darkclaw’s Forest.
Following your victory, scale the elevated ridge overlooking the battlefield. At the summit of this cliff, you will discover the sword driven into a rocky outcropping.
Sword 5 Location

Confront and bring down Dosei the Therizinosaurus.
The blade materializes embedded within a nearby boulder right beside the spot where the apex predator collapses.
Sword 6 Location

Journey into the murky swamp territory on foot.
Head toward the far eastern edge where a massive Sauropod carcass rests. Scan along the shoreline for a secluded tree gap positioned right next to the flowing water.
This hidden route sits directly across from the gateway leading to Akai Tsuki.
Follow the secluded trail into the brush until you reach the blade lodged in an upright stone.
Sword 7 (Final Blade)
Face and defeat the formidable boss Akai Tsuki.
Upon felling this final adversary, your last collectible weapon appears right on the arena floor, completing your arsenal.
THE IRON DINO – All Max Heal Ore Locations
Earning THE IRON DINO requires finding all three Max Heal Ore deposits hidden across the world. Each piece permanently expands your healing threshold.
Max Heal Ore 1

Navigate through the rocky canyon passage.
Toward the far side of the zone, the canyon trail branches into two separate directions.
Take the left fork and dispatch the mid-sized predators patrolling the clearing.
Move past their corpses and slip into the narrow subterranean fissure nearby. The ore node awaits at the dead end of this tunnel.
Max Heal Ore 2

Travel directly to the Great Lake zone.
Position yourself right at the entryway leading toward Haku’s battle zone.
Ascend the hillside to your left while hugging the stone barrier tightly.
Continue tracking along the upper ridge until you locate a concealed cavern mouth.
Step inside the dark opening to collect your second healing upgrade from the cave floor.
Max Heal Ore 3

Return to the overgrown swamp expanse.
Locate the enormous Sauropod skeleton resting on the eastern section of the map.
Inspect the dense vegetation resting directly left of the skeletal remains.
Squeeze between the trunks into an enclosed thicket to grab the final upgrade ore.
TINY TANK Achievement Guide
To unlock TINY TANK, you must rescue an Ankylosaurus from hostile carnivores.
Proceed through the canyon until you pass well beyond the region’s initial boss arena.
Follow the left branch past the waterfall area where the Rex wielding a heavy hammer normally prowls.
Further ahead, you will stumble upon two aggressive predators actively mauling a lone Ankylosaurus.
Focus all your attacks strictly on the pair of hostile carnivores.
Maintain clean spacing and avoid using sweeping wild swings that might clip the herbivore.
Stand still for several moments once both attackers drop. The achievement triggers automatically as long as the armored dinosaur remains alive.

If stray hits accidentally slay the target or enemies overwhelm it, you can reset the event.
Rest at the nearby campfire checkpoint beside the waterfall to refresh the zone.
The encounter respawns immediately, giving you unlimited attempts to save the creature.
SILENCING THE EARTHQUAKES Achievement Guide
To secure SILENCING THE EARTHQUAKES, you must find and eliminate six colossal Sauropods.
The world contains exactly six eligible giants required for this achievement tracker.
These massive targets possess immense health pools, yet their attacks are slow and straightforward to avoid with well-timed dodges.
You can hunt them down in whatever sequence fits your progression through each territory.

Resting at checkpoints never resets your kill tally for these roaming behemoths. Once the sixth behemoth falls, the achievement pops immediately.
FEED THE BEAST Achievement Guide
Invest enough upgrade points to push the Alpha Roar ability to its absolute maximum tier.
After acquiring that final tier upgrade, activate the skill once in live combat or open terrain.
Purchasing the upgrade alone will not pop the trophy. You must trigger the roar manually to register the unlock.
Mastering Skill Trees
The achievements MASTER OF THE DASH, MASTER OF THE DANCE, and MASTER OF THE BLADE each require completing a distinct progression tree.
Allocate enough skill points into each respective discipline until every single node is bought, awarding its corresponding title.
FEEDING THE BLADE – Clearing Boss Rush
Earning FEEDING THE BLADE requires completing the gauntlet inside the Boss Rush mode.
This arena trial yields abundant upgrade resources, making it the perfect venue to finish any lingering talents left unpurchased from your campaign run.
Because the challenge provides so many points, you never need to grind repetitive enemy encounters in earlier zones.
Bonus Boss SP Orb Locations
While these glowing collectibles do not tie directly to a specific trophy, picking them up grants substantial skill power to accelerate character progression.
Boss SP Orb 1

Return to the introductory stretches of the canyon region.
Check behind the cascading waterfall located right near the opening area to collect the orb.
Boss SP Orb 2

Make your way toward the Great Lake territory.
Swim out into the deep center of the body of water.
Dive downward toward a sunken mound of giant skeletal bones.
The glowing SP Orb sits right on top of this submerged bone mound.
Boss SP Orb 3
Advance through Darkclaw’s Forest until you pass the Hammer Rex encounter.
Near the back exit of this region, scan the left wall for an elevated, scalable stone platform.
Climb up onto this perch to claim the third bonus SP Orb.
Strategies for Surviving Boss Rush
Boss Rush ramps up the difficulty considerably compared to the standard story encounters, particularly during the final pair of matchups.
If you encounter difficulty finishing the gauntlet, consider adopting these key combat tactics:
- Cap out all three major skill trees first so you have maximum offensive tools and passive resistances.
- Hone your parry timing, as late-game boss combos are far safer to deflect than to evade.
- Slot the Parasaurolophus Stick passive for reliable recovery and stability during prolonged duels.
