Review overall:
My overall thoughts on achievements:
Design: 4/5
- Pretty simple and barely changed but it's good to show them on your profile. I absolutely like all the boss icons.
Obtainability: 5/5
- No bugs, no issues just reach this goal and your good to go.
Amount: 5/5
- The right amount just like Automata.
Grind: 3/5
- The biggest and most of which comes from old game design, especially my biggest I did on weapons while Automata solves this with easy ways.
Would recommend? Absolutely of course I think maybe 50 hours grind is the best just do not be like me who spent almost 40 hours playing on Hard and have become burnt out or tired even if not dying too often.

Side Quest - Act I: (18) ✔
These quests are a filler to content and they can be somewhat tedious, but however make sure to choose which one to do, otherwise you'd do the worse which give you nothing in return (yeah keep that in mind on one quest). Also we need golds so unless you farm the DLC this is also a filler to accumulating golds. There are recommended quests to do also for your advantage on achievements.
Anything inside Grimoire Weiss book is considered part of it such as the quest, although your first quest is extra I include them on extra. Even though I put a how-to guide, videos I posted can be for your own choice to watch if you want to watch it of course it's up to you.

9) Boar Hunt!: [Recommended]
1. Talk to the old man and go to the Northern Plains.
2. We need to kill the Boar, your level mileage and weapons may vary so I recommend using what's best in power attack as well as words to increase the power, you may find yourself killing it in under 5 minutes and like I mentioned no difficulty needed to worry on so play what's comfortable.

12) Fragile Delivery:
1. Talk to the guard near Northern Plains gate, he will give you this peculiar package which in a nutshell you need to avoid evading or dodging.
Best way is to keep jumping and ground slam against enemies, this will not fail the package quest and make you go back to the guard (how fun!) but you will at least get this done.
2. The location to finish this quest is what the guard said, The Aerie. No otherwise bullshite we come to face when we reach there but another tip is to go back to Aerie after progressing further the story before Act II.
Also on the video you can use the boar which I never on my first time but it saves time, just try not to crash with the Boar I think that guarantees a package broken.
3. Go back to the same guard to claim your price.
Reward: 1,500 G well this reward number can get reduced each package breaks ✅
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaB-1_WqIvE
13) Fragile Delivery 2:
1. As expected, this is unlocked when you are done with the first one (similar to what we need to do with numbered quests). Anyways we talk to the Old Geezer and bring this package to the Seafront where the Tavern Keeper will claim it.
2. Go back to the Old Geezer and claim our reward.
Reward: 1,500 G ✅
14) The Ballad of the Twins: [Recommended]
1. Inside the Tavern, a guy will mention of Devola and Popola singing so this will start your quest after the conversation.
2. Do the steps to progress, for materials you should get:
x5 Lizard Tails - Found in Northern Plains or Eastern Roads
x5 Mouse Tails - Found in Junk Heap3. Go to the Seafront Tavern Keeper, claim Popola's drink and go to Popola.

Reward: None
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOi65pKVXpM
15) A Dog Astray: [Recommended]

2. Find the following:
x1 Melon
x1 Watermelon
x1 Pumpkin - Village Grocer
They are on the Facade shop
3. Go back to Yonah.
Reward: None since any choice outcome will lead to no rewards but at least you fulfilled Yonah's needs.
17) Fragile Delivery 3:
1. Talk to the guard at the Eastern Road gate, he will tell you to send it to the Facade weapons shop.
2. Make sure to not get knocked or evade and run, also there is a shortcut on the Desert so make use of that since there are wolves but your magic shall suffice.
3. Give it to the merchant in Facade weapons shop.
Reward: 2,900 G
18) The Runaway Son: [Not Recommended]
1. If you are doing this quest for some reason after the Facade & Barren Temple main story for Act I, look for and talk to the Villager he will mention his son with a strange hat on Seafront which is where he is.
2. You now need the following material from him.
x5 Mutton
x3 Goat Meat3. Actually this means everything's all worthless and a waste of time because the Tavern Keeper you talk to on Seafront has no idea. After that go to the father in the Village again.
4. You still doing this quest? Well anyways you can find clues on Seafront then once that is done head to Facade where you will find him via door in hiding near the two masked villagers.
5. Chase him until you get to fight a pack of wolves near Eastern Road entrance. You will be back at the Village where not surprising the people run away.
Reward: None

Side Quest - Act I: (18) ✔X
0) Extras:
Location: Seafront first visit
1. Simply bring the letter to the old lady.
Reward: 1,000 G
Seafront: (x13)19) The Fisherman’s Gambit Part 1):
1. We will repeat this quest five times because we need to level +1 up our fishing skills, without this then there's no way to get our legendary last fish which is very needed as I try it on my blind playthrough it failed without fisherman skills.
For more on fishing, check this guide:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2467166886
2. You need the following for fishing (keep in mind you can buy as many lures or fish baits as you can:
Lugworm - Available immediately at Tackle Shop3. Collect x10 Sardines near him it can be also in the beach but I prefer doing it near the Pier because we need the blowfish too. After the fishing, bring him the Sardines and he will tell you everything to teach you for two days well this is mostly reading text so we just read through and get our reward.
Reward: Fishing Skill improved ✅
20) The Fisherman’s Gambit Part 2):
1. Talk to him again, this time we will fish a different fish and keep in mind we can buy a fish if we completed the fisherman's quests.
2. If you fished for Sardines in the Pier, you will also fish for blowfish even though your fishing level is too low, you might get around 6 blowfishes so otherwise just collect few more. Like before, if you have a leveled skill, you can potentially catch a Bream at least that's on the Seafront Pier or near the fisherman, anyways here is what you need:
Lugworm4. Give x7 Blowfishes to the fisherman, same as before but no days included.
Reward: Fishing Skill improved
21) The Fisherman’s Gambit Part 3):
1. So this time we need to catch Rainbow Trouts on the Northern Plain, we need the following for fishing:
Lure2. Catch x7 Rainbow Trouts and you are done, just one week later of course.
Reward: Fishing Skill improved ✅
22) The Fisherman’s Gambit Part 4):
1. When you fished for blowfishes you also fished for the Breams which for me I ended up with 3 of them, if you need few left then fish near the fisherman. Otherwise here is the needed bait:
Lure2. Catch x5 Breams and talk to the fisherman.
Reward: Fishing Skill improved ✅
23) The Fisherman’s Gambit Part 5): [Recommended on all parts]
1. We need to catch Black Brass fishes. We only need the following:
Lure2. Catch x5 Black Brass from the Village then go back to the fisherman, next day text insertion. That should be all for this Act.
Reward: Fishing Skill improved ✅
24) The New Merchant in Town:
1. Just exit out the city and then go back anytime, the speech bubble from the Merchant will appear.
2. The folllowing is needed:
10 Wools - Act I drops on sheep as always Northern Plains
5 Natural Rubbers - Seafront shop (700 G each)
10 Goat Hides - Very rare raw materials, just keep farming them on Eastern Roads those are the goat areas.
Funny how strange you can get sometimes more goat hides but less on wools at least but this is your choice to do the quest there's more to do for the quest achievements at least not 100% them all just only 43% them.
3. Bring them to the Merchant and he will thank you. Then you exit out Seafront and come back to him.
Reward: 10,000 G

2. Go to the Seafront Post Office, talk to him and deliver the letter to the Lighthouse Lady.
3. She will thank you for it.
Reward: 1,000 G
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVXEg9hvvdI
26) The Lighthouse Lady’s Wrath: [Recommended]
Requires The Postman's Request to be finished.
1. When the cutscene of the Lady and Postman plays before entering the Post Office you can start there.
2. When visiting her, you will then be needing to talk to the Postman. Progress through and at that point you will be seeing her for the last time.
3. Choose two choices which leads to some different dialogue to the same conclusion, otherwise the reward will be given to you.
Reward: 1,000 G

1. This still should be the continuation

Words (A, B, G, H): (40) ✔X
There are 120 words in this game on Route A, useful at farming when stat is increase on items. They will be dropped to you when you obtain Grimoire Weiss and since this will be on easy we can use word material droprates etc to help us grab more loot easily and I guess this would affect the words but either way I prefer on easy. Words are unmissable and some can drop at random times however there are few that's missable so refer to the other steam guide for more context. I will list the locations also from other sources and where I got them first especially drops from enemies is different for this.
✔️ indicates my first playthrough done but some will be missed.
For the word buffs, three types exist:
Sealed Verses is your increase in magic stats and status effects
Weapons is your weapon stat increase
Martial Arts is your physical stat increase

https://videochums.com/extras/nier-weapon-upgrade-materials-calculator
There are three types of weapon types to grind levels on so more on the other three sections I put here due to Steam word limit count.
Here I will simply tell you which I upgraded and would suggest which to upgrade by checkmark, for more information on materials check in this guide the material section and my 100% achievement roadmap guide. For now working on it and referring to my old save.
No matter what, YoRHa DLC weapons do not add up as your percentage to Weapons Collector, simply collect all base 33 weapons and your good.
