Missable Achievements: Dying Light 2

Introduction

In order to achieve 100% completion in Dying Light 2, you will also have to get the 5 missable achievements in the game, which can be a bit troublesome when you've just missed the last opportunity to get a single missable collectible at the end of the game, and now you have to complete a whole new playthrough or camp other players' missions online for hours just to join and grab the collectible (been there, done that). This guide covers only the missables. Also I had to deal with a lot of unnecessary conflicting information and a hell lot of spoilers, trying not to miss anything on my first playthrough, so I try to keep it as concise and as censored as possible so you can enjoy the game freely. Here are the 5 missable achievements:

Archivist

Find all Collectible Notes.

Audiophile

Find all Collectible Recordings.

Boot Licker

Reach City Alignment 7 for any faction.

Fit as a Fiddle

Max out your Health.

Ironheart

Max out your Stamina.

This is my first guide and if you liked this guide, you can buy me a coffee[buymeacoffee.com] to support future guides :) If you have any corrections or thoughts feel free to share them in the comments and I'll try to keep the guide updated!

"Ironheart" And "Fit As A Fiddle"

The Ironheart and Fit as a Fiddle achievements aren’t truly missable, but they’re often labeled as such because you can’t complete both in a single playthrough. To max out your health and stamina, you’ll need Inhibitors- 78 for each, to be exact. The main game contains only 126, but New Game+ adds 30 more, bringing the total to 156, which allows you to max out both stats eventually. Since they can be collected even after finishing the game, there’s no need to worry about missing them or keeping track of them (After Main Quest #16: "Broadcast", you’ll be able to see the locations of any missing Inhibitors. ).

Fit as a Fiddle

Max out your Health.

Ironheart

Max out your Stamina.

Some guides recommend saving those 78 Inhibitors, maxing out one stat, then reloading a save file to max out the other and unlock both achievements. Alternatively, you can use the save files provided in this guide:

Also if you seem to miss only the last couple Inhibitors on your first playthrough and can't find them anywhere, keep in mind there are three inhibitors outside of the map area on the way to the Observatory and one is received from the Side Quest: "The First Biomarker"[www.powerpyx.com] .

"Boot Licker"

The "Boot Licker" achievement is missable because it requires consistent choices throughout the game. As you progress, you’ll be prompted to assign territories to a faction, there are a total of 7 territories available and each dedicated territory grants 1 level of City Alignment for this faction (as you've probably guessed from the description of the achievement already). To reach City Alignment 7 for any faction, you must consistently assign all 7 territories to the same faction.

A territory must be assigned during Main Quest #8:"Water Tower" and Main Quest #11:"A Place To Call Home" . After these two quests you can assign the remaining 5 territories at any point in the story.

Boot Licker

Reach City Alignment 7 for any faction.

"Archivist" And "Audiophile"

The "Archivist" and "Audiophile" achievements largely depend on story progression, as their collectibles must be obtained before or during specific main quests, or during side quests that may become unavailable after certain story points. Fortunately, only base game collectibles are required for these achievements, so DLC or extension collectibles are not necessary.

Archivist

Find all Collectible Notes.

Audiophile

Find all Collectible Recordings.

Some missable collectibles in this list may have been patched, meaning they can be collected even if they were inaccessible before- I'll still leave them in the list until I'm 100% sure they aren't semi-missable (better safe than sorry). If any collectible is glitched for you or you missed something, you can always try to join someone else's game and try to get it there...

I highly recommend checking the Glitched? Section of the guide too, since some collectibles may be locked behind glitchy side quests for you.

During Prologue: "Pilgrim's Path"There's a single missable collectible in the Prologue [www.powerpyx.com] of the game and is easily missable. Since the Prologue can't be replayed even in New Game+, missing this collectible can prevent you from achieving the "Archivist" trophy.

Memento #1: Newspaper Article – October 11th, 2020[www.powerpyx.com]

However, some players have reported that this memento can be found later in the game, credit to WhiteEagle for the video:

Before Main Quest #9: "Revolution" / "Into The Dark"After finishing Main Quest #4: "The Only Way Out"[www.powerpyx.com] right outside the door when you first get interrogated by Aitor there will be a Carriers NPC at Quarry's End, you have to talk to the NPC in order to later trigger the Carriers[www.powerpyx.com] questline that contains a tape and a memento.

First Carrier[www.powerpyx.com]

If you miss it, there's a second way to trigger the Carriers[www.powerpyx.com] questline- if you haven't captured Metro: Newalls Crossing yet, you simply have to complete the Side Quest "Rats in the Dark" (or it could be "Rats in the House" I'm not sure) which appears in the Fish Eye Canteen.

Also the Side Quest: "The Ball is in Your Court"[www.powerpyx.com] becomes inaccessible after Main Quest #9, make sure to complete it, as three missable collectibles are in military containers you have to search during the quest:

GRE report – Quartermaster Pike #1[www.powerpyx.com]

GRE report – Quartermaster Pike #2[www.powerpyx.com]

GRE report – Quartermaster Pike #3[www.powerpyx.com]

During Main Quest #16: "Broadcast"You get this memento from a zombie you kill in the basement. If you miss it you should be able to get it by starting the Side Quest: "Last Will"[www.powerpyx.com] .

During Main Quest #21: "Now Or Never"When you get to Waltz's chambers you can find three collectible tapes there:

Waltz’s Chamber Recording #1[www.powerpyx.com]

Waltz’s Chamber Recording #2[www.powerpyx.com]

Waltz’s Chamber Recording #3[www.powerpyx.com]

Before Main Quest #22: "X13"A location with a tape becomes inaccessible, because of story progression:

Glitched?

Sometimes side quests with collectibles glitch out or in my case don't spawn at all, so I'll try to list some of them down here, hopefully you'll have more luck with them :)
