Completion means beating every Nightlord and unlocking the full roster — a mix of skill-gated boss kills and steady grind for relics and remembrances.
The checklist
- Defeat all eight Nightlords, including Heolstor.
- Unlock all eight Nightfarers and clear their remembrance content.
- Collect a spread of relics for build variety.
- Complete the tougher expedition challenges.
Getting there
- Rotate Nightfarers to unlock and progress every remembrance rather than maining one.
- Farm the earlier Nightlords for relics while you level up for the harder ones.
- Coordinate a dedicated squad for Heolstor — the finale rarely falls to matchmaking pugs.
- Chip at expedition challenges as you go; most complete naturally over many runs.
The Heolstor grind
The true final boss, Heolstor, unlocks after the earlier Nightlords and is far tougher — it rarely falls to random matchmaking. Build a strong relic set on a class you're comfortable with, coordinate a dedicated squad (ideally with voice), and treat the first several attempts as learning its patterns. Everything else in the completion list mostly accrues naturally as you climb toward it.
The grind is not a grind
- Because relics drop from every expedition regardless of the outcome, the completion path is the same as the play path. There is no separate farming loop to endure.
- Six Nightfarers are unlocked from the start; the other two come with story progress, so the roster fills as you play rather than as you farm.
- Pushing deeper into a run is worth more than repeating a safe one: the relic count and the relic quality both scale with how far you got.
Cross-checked
Cross-checked on 5 September 2026 against PowerPyx's trophy guide, and against GameRant's and Destructoid's character-unlock write-ups for the roster claim — which agree that Wylder, Guardian, Ironeye, Raider, Recluse and Executor are available from the start, with Duchess and Revenant unlocking through progression, for eight base-game Nightfarers. A second independent trophy-count source could not be reached this session, so the 37-trophy breakdown rests on PowerPyx alone; it matches what this page already said, so nothing changed there. What is still unverified is the only thing reading cannot settle — nobody here has played it.
The list at a glance
| Grade | How many |
|---|---|
| Bronze | 17 |
| Silver | 16 |
| Gold | 3 |
| Platinum | 1 |
| Total | 37 |
37 is a small list for a roguelike, and that tells you something. There is no
«win 500 expeditions» wall here — the list tracks the eight Nightlords and the roster, both of which you advance
by playing. The checklist above is genuinely the whole of it, which is why the only real grind is Heolstor.
Cross-checked
Cross-checked on 5 September 2026 against PowerPyx's trophy guide, which lists the same 37 / 17 / 16 / 3 / 1 breakdown exactly. A second independent source for the count could not be reached this session. Trophy lists can change with DLC, so a Forsaken Hollows install may show more — not from a playthrough.
