I have 62 out of 63 of the achievements for Dragon Age: Origins and Awakening.  The one I am missing is the Blight Queller (kill 1000 darkspawn).  

Here's why I feel like it should have unlocked by now: first game play through I killed over 900; second play through killed over 900 again; imported character into Awakening and played through that (forget the actual number of kills); third playthrough killed hundreds more.  I did almost every side quest, all the origin stories, and all the other achievements, as I stated, but I still came up short.  

I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem.  I don't want to play again just to remain empty handed.  The only thing I can think of is that I kept the game on Casual the entire time.  Does that make a difference?  Are there more enemies on the higher difficulty levels?  

This is driving me nuts.  Please offer any advice if you can!  

Thanks!

Yes I think it's a post 1.03 bug.



If you search this thread you will find that one guy did a test and got it by killing 1000 darkspawn in one playthrough and getting the killing blow each time. It seems you can only get it in one playthrough and you have to make the kill with the character you currently control now.



Another guy also found that you can do this by reloading part of the game as it stores the killed stats even if you reload and replay, he played part of the final area over and over until it popped.



But yes, it seems to be bugged now.

i have read elsewhere that this is not so much a glitch as it is based on a misunderstanding. The counter includes all darkspawn kills by team members... but apparently, contrary to what has sometimes been said, it is your PC who must rack up the 1000 kills -- hence the discrepancy between the total of team-kills of darkspawn and the hidden number of kills by the PC,

Although you may think that you are not getting the achievement or trophy until you have an absurd number of kills.... the system is counting PC kills only for this achievement. It quite explicitly states in the Achievement info that one can reply on multiple playthroughs to get this...



if your team members are always rushing in and killing darkspawn, your PC will lag behind for quite some time.



(I am still working on this myself... it is the last of two achievements that I do not yet have. Perfectionist being the other. I hope to find out for sure over the next day or two if Blight Queller will finally "pop" I am using a very well equipped Dwarf Warrior as my PC, equipped with the Starfang sword loaded with anti-darkspawn runes.).

[sassperella]

yes, unfortunately people have soloed over 1000 darkspawn in a playthrough and not got the achievement pop so it's not as simple as the PC having to make the kills.



before 1.03 I got this achievement on a different profile no problem right at the beginning of a second playthrough. On this profile, (I've just got a wifi adaptor for my xbox finally so now am using a window's live one) I've three playthroughs and not sign of it. The 500 one only popped when I was playing one of the chars ending through repeatedly to get the different endings.

Confirmed that this achievement pops on an unpatched DAO 360 install.

[Wonderllama4]

The way I did it is I played the final battle about three times, and then I got it. only your character's kills count and I'm pretty sure it has to be 1000 kills by a single character.



just do the final battle a few times and you should get it.

I thought i had the same problem with this, everyone seems to have a different opinion. On my main char, it states in heroic accomplishments that i had done 1100 darkspawn kills, no achievement though. So after reading some other forums i decided to try the alienage in denerim. After each battle i saved and then reloaded the save before the battle to redo it. I did this about 30 times and it finally unlocked for me. So reloading a past save does work and count toward the 1000 kills but its only for one charachter, not across all chars. I also figured it does indeed only count YOUR kills and not the others in you team. Btw my heroic acc. at this part of the game was only 800 ish... hope this helps!!!

[joevill]

I just played the game for the fourth time. This time my main character has killed 1040 darkspawn solo. It has not unlocked. Please help.

[joevill]

I read a lot of success stories by farming the Eleven Alienage during the Final Battle of Denerim. I tried it and it unlocked on my 8th run. I hope that helps.

[Foxfire49]

so yea i been having the problem to...so i decided to try it where only my toon gets the killing blows so for every quest unless i had to i had 0 party members with me played through the whole game that way finished with around 1060 or so kills right b4 i landed the final blow on the arch demon and still no achievement...its the last one i need and it sucks i cant get it

[ELITE Pete]

I just did a playthrough like that too Foxfire49, no luck for me either. I'm now doing a playthrough after deleting everything DA:O related on my hard drive. We'll see if there's any more luck after that...

[Foxfire49]

ya do that and keep me posted lol it just sucks cause its the only one left that i need...ooh btw if anyone has any questions about any part of the game or skills, plot issues let me know and for the DA:O developers....FIX THE ACHIEVEMENT BUG lol hopefully b4 the so-called "Ultimate Editon" launch

[CrabOni]

Do kills from DLC count? I'm on my 9th run in the Alienage and, by my count, should have at least 1,100 solo kills. I know that some of the earlier kills came from Stone Prisoner and Return to Ostagar DLCs. I'd love to get that last achievement...

[ELITE Pete]

Okay, here's my findings:
After 5 or so playthroughs, I had not unlocked Master Warden or Blight-queller.
I tried deleting the patch and killing a few more darkspawn and nothing happened.
I tried a complete solo run, killing just over 1000 darkspawn and nothing happened.

This past run, I deleted EVERYTHING dragon age related off my hard drive (backing up the 2 playthroughs I really enjoyed in case I ever wanted to go back to them) and made sure to always play with the patch not installed. I did a full group run. Upon 500 darkspawn kills, Master Warden has just unlocked as it was supposed to. I am now doing Alienage runs for blight-queller.

Edit: 6 Alienage runs later,  got Blight-queller. Just a note, if you do decide to delete everything like I do, back up your saves on a flash drive or memory card, it's nice to have not lost all those characters.

I'm not sure I can stomach another playthrough to do this. Especially without all my precious DLC goodies.

Havent they fixed that Blight Queller Achievement (Kill 1000 Darkspawn) achievement bug yet?

I’ve beaten the game 3 times (the last one about a week ago) with a fourth almost done as well as all done all the origins and an Awakenings game run through and it still hasn’t unlocked. My nephew who beat the game twice got the achievement months ago.

Any word on this one? Oh wait, this is the Tech support forums and every one from BioWare seems to have gone on a month long vacation or something. Silly me.

Even try and go to that EA Tech Support site and do a search for Blight Queller Achievement and you get no help at all. Not like I expect anything from EA and their crap tech support. Nothing like getting the royal run around from BioWare.

I was just about to make a new topic on this until I saw this thread. Maybe I’ll still make a new one and add it to every forum in this site each day until we get some sort of reply from BioWare. This thread is after all 4 months old and still not a reply from them.

[Lord_Valandil]

I've killed more than a thousand Darkspawn and I haven't unlocked Master Warden yet (I guess I shouldn't even think about getting Blight Queller some day, hahaha).
So...I agree with Darth Drago, it's quite amusing that Bioware answers to useless threads like "We need furries in DA2" and yet has no comment on this one. No offense intended, but, come on guys, 4 months?

Happy to report you don't need to delete or reinstall anything...

Farming the Alienage with my party set to just stand around (turn tactics off and they do nothing... Sidenote: Is that supposed to happen?) 10 or so runs later, and my achiev popped.

I have everything installed, all the DLC incl. Awakening... And the most current Patch... This wasn't a solo run, so the Alienage runs were a few more than ELITE Pete had to do.

71/72 Achievies... Now to kill the Harvester on Hard or Nightmare.

Any word yet if this thing has been fixed yet? I’ve been away from both the game and these forums to notice. Not like anything has changed here on the forum side. Four months this topic was started and not a word from a BioWare employee or moderator to let us know that they even looked here.

[mrcanada]

So you load your save from the alienage and clear it. Now do you reload to restart the alienage before the game auto saves or after? I have done like 10 alienage runs and have got nothing even though I have gotten the Master Warden a long time ago. I just can't get this one to ding. Any help on the reloads will help.

[CrabOni]

I've been loading the start of the alienage (save 1), clear it and create a new save (save 2). Then I reload save 1, clear it and create another new save (save 3). I've repeated this process like 10 times, at about 48 kills per run (plus the solo kills from earlier in the game) and still no achievement. Maybe I misunderstood the process?

[mrcanada]

My real question is if you let it auto save before loading your alienage save to restart, or do you simply reload before it auto saves after you get the quest complete signal.

[CrabOni]

I think the window between the mission complete and the auto-save is too small to try to pull off a hard save, but I could be mistaken.

FYI, I emailed EA about this and got the "clear your cache" answer, which didn't end up working. Their next reply was basically, "we don't know how to fix it, but we'll pass your info along to the dev team. sorry." Maybe it's time to take ELITE Pete's approach after all...
