Hard to miss/cant be missed
Dont worry about this Achievements you will get them most likely while playing through the Story.

Bravery!
Finish a chapter in the main campaign without using a Psygate


This Achievement should be done in the first level and is straight forward. You use the Psigate for heal and to replenish the Charges of your medic (Nahum).
For this Achievement DONT DO IT. Thats all. The first level is pretty easy and should be done easily without extra heal.

Sanctuary
Use the Psygate


Exactly the opposite and you will get it most likely in Chapter 2 or 3. Just press "4" to open the Psigate.



You basically cant miss the following enemy related Achievements since you kill quite a lot of every of this enemies. They are coming in the late game chapters more then once.


Mutant sorcerer hunter
Kill an hybrid psyker



Killer of stalker-strain Genestealers
Kill a stalker-strain Genestealer



Broodlord killer
Kill a Broodlord



Slayer of warrior-strain Genestealers
Kill a warrior-strain Genestealer



Crusher of scythe-strain Genestealers
Kill a scythe-strain Genestealer







Strong Way
Destroy a door aboard the Olethros



Master of Systems
Lock a door aboard the Olethros


This two Achievements are also most likely to be done naturally in the game.
Both hacking doors to keep filthy Xenos from backstabbing you and destroying doors since hacked doors cant be opened anymore.



For the Chapter!
Kill 666 enemies



This should come naturally aswell and you will have killed far more enemies then 666 by the end of the campaign.
Skill Branches and missable Achievements
So listen up my friends i am going to tell you a secret about the following 3 achievements. YOU CAN GET THEM IN ONE PLAYTHROUGH! But wait you say: You can get only 32 Points at max in one Playthrough but you need 50+ Points to finish all Branches. How on earth is this possible?

Well yes but there is a cheeky breeki little option to get all Branches done without cheating. RELOADING!

Alright so basically you have to play Chapter 1 till 6 without spending any Skillpoints and collecting all relicts to get everytime the 4 Skillpoints. Play it on easy. I know your pride says that you arent a noob and you can manage at least normal but the last chapters will be though without any skills at your hand.

After you finished Chapter 6, finish a Branch, confirm and then after the next Mission starts immediatly reload and skill another Branch. Do this a third time and now you have the three Branch and the two skill Achievements.

Important Info for the normal Version: you will LOOSE your points when you close the game. So you have to play through Chapter 1-6 without closing the game once!
I didnt die in both playthroughs (normal and enhanced) so i dont know if this removes the skillpoints too but i strongly suggest not to die aswell.

If you died and didnt loose your skillpoints please leave a comment so i can delete this section

Devotee
Complete the Devotion branch



Commandant
Complete the Command branch



Great psyker
Complete the Psy branch





You will get this two Achievements when skilling in the Psy branch, so dont worry about them if you make the above mentioned trick.

Flame Psyker
Learn Inferno



Destruction Psyker
Learn Vortex of Doom
Sweet, Sweet Collectibles
Time lord
Find all the major relics in the main campaign



For this Achievement refer to the awesome Guide by Nosmirc. He marked all the Relic Locations on the map and i cant add anything to that Guide.

Multiplayer
I will make here a summary of Gamewiz great Guide for solo leveling. Check it out for more Information and give it a like.

If you play the enhanced Version: The Level in the Main Menu isnt the Level for the classes. You are leveling the classes seperatly from scratch in each new Mission.

So the level of your Classes isnt permament. The longer you play a single Mission, the higher your Level gets. Considering that you are not getting a Class to level 7 in a normal MP Mission(except you are moving very, very slowly) and that there is a high chance this game will be dead someday. (The Normal Version is dead already) there is a good way for leveling all your Classes solo.

Champion of the Lions
Unlock all Assault Terminator's abilitiess in multiplayer


Killing machine
Unlock all of the Heavy Weapon Support's abilities in multiplayer


Epistolary
Unlock all of the Librarian's capacities in multiplayer


Phoenix light
Unlock all of the Apothecary's abilities in multiplayer


Chapter pillar
Unlock all Tactical Terminator abilities in multiplayer




Setup:
Host a Game with a password(just in case) and deactivate the Codex Rules. Select Chapter 1 and the easiest difficulty. Go to the Spot on the following Picture. It is located between the Spawn area and the Centerhall with the nice big Bell. Kill all the Hybrids in the Spawn Area first before moving to the Spot:


Setup part two:
Now close and hack all the 4 doors as shown on the Picture and get in position.
Gamewiz has marked the positions for different Classes but basically you go on Point C for Melee Weapons and somewhere between his Current Position and Point B for every other Class.

Kill all the filthy Xenos and switch to Apothecary if you are getting low on health. Be aware that switching classes/weapons is causing to reset the skill cooldowns and Level Ups vanishes all Cooldowns. You switch Classes and Weapons by pressing the Key "I". Be aware that the game continues and you cant pause it.
Leveling each Class takes between 40-70 minutes on that Spot. Depending on how good you clear the Spawn Area there seems to spawn more enemies but i cant confirm this a 100%.

Edit: Another spot to farm the kills are the tunnels or sewers (Thanks to Abbadon) in Chapter 9 that connect both generator hallways. the Position of the blue Dot works on both sides.
This Method on No Mercy difficulty takes according to him about 25-30 min





For Honour!
Kill 10,000 enemies



This Achievement will come naturally when you level all the Classes and play through the single player. There is no other way then just play the game. Leveling the Classes alone brings you about 6000 Kills and the Singleplayer will give you 3000-4000 aswell. So you wont have to grind much/ no kills for this Achievement specifically.


Brother In Arms
Perform 1,111 assists in multiplayer mode or the special missions

While in the enhanced Version this is straight forward and most Assists count, this achievement is A BIG PAIN IN THE A$$ for the normal Version.

So basic requirements, that Assists should count in the normal Version:
-Play on easy with codex rules off
-Only the Host gets assists
-take the Apothecary with the Bolter and just shoot every enemy a few times and let your friend
finish them off
-Play Chapter 1 until you get to the Chapel then farm assists there


If your assist counter in the Steam Achievement doesnt get updated every 5-7 minutes, you are one of the lucky few that can go hang yourself.

Then your only Option to do the Assists is by playing solo the Tactical (5th Class) and farm assists with the Skull Bolter.
Every 5 minutes you will farm about 10 kills. Do the Math yourself.

Another way, altough i dont recommend it, is to use a Trainer that eliminates the cooldown of your skills and lets you spawn dozens of the Skullbolters.

i also died in Chapter 2, after i finished Chapter 6 i could get all the skills with the save reloading method, that means i didnt't lose any skillpoints by dying

excellent guide and thank you for the tip on the branch achievements, it saved me a lot of time to get them in just a single playthrough. I did die on chapter 6 but I reloaded my last save and I kept my points.
I made the mistake of restarting a level on a previous playthrough and lost them all so do not do that.

Update: It seems that you CAN lose skill points after death. But I came with the explanation why it happens.
I died on the 5th Chapter. But this time,I clicked "Restart" (because I died fairly early) and completed the chapter. Instead of suspected 20 points, I had only four.
One conclusion: DO NOT click Restart. Instead, go for auto-saves.

To people who will want to do the skill achievements in singleplayer: I can confirm, that you do not lose skill points after being killed. I suddenly died in Chapter 3, but finished it after reloading the latest autosave and points did not go away. Do remember that you can see available skillpoints only AFTER finishing a level - during mission they are not visible for some reason.

For future players: those 1,111 assists: search the guide here with barrel method. You get about 200+ assists in ~30mins. Which is like... 3-4 times quicker than the servo skull kills.
