Most unlocks are unlockable on any [[difficulty]] and [[permadeath]] setting. However, there are a few unlocks that are tied to achievements, which can therefore not be unlocked on Easier difficulty, as achievements cannot be earned on Easier difficulty. The affected achievements are marked on this page. Additionally, the Insane and Madness difficulties can only be unlocked by beating the game on the previous difficulty (Nightmare and Insane, respectively).

    • Find and read a special book as an Alchemist, and defeat the boss of the zone visited via the book, to unlock the Glass Golem birth option.

Achievement-locked Prodigies

These Prodigies each require a certain achievement to have been achieved. These Prodigies will only be unlocked for the difficulty and permadeath setting where their required achievement was earned, unlike other unlocks, which can be used on other settings than they were unlocked on. (If an achievement is earned on a difficulty and permadeath setting, it will also be earned on all combinations of equal or lower difficulty and permadeath settings.)

These unlocks are implemented differently than other unlocks, so they are not counted in the unlocks count on the character creation screen.

Version history

  • Wildfire (for Archmage class)
    • Do so, so much fire damage.
    • This unlock is tied to an achievement and thus cannot be obtained on Easier mode.
