Follow us on twitter for the latest news and giveaways.

Stage 1 – Complete the game

Tails of Iron is a linear game full of story elements. Each objective is shown on the interactive mini-map, which displays various things. You can find waypoints, missions, and savepoints on the map.

You’ll be spending around 8 hours completing the game. During this game, you will face various foes and bosses. The combat can be a bit challenging and some bosses can prove quite tough. That’s the reason the difficulty is rated 6/10, but you could find it harder or easier, depending on your combat skills.

There are a few trophies you need to keep an eye on:

– Complete the Chef’s Book
Most of the food is found during the story, for some you need to talk to NPCs and complete little quests.

– Complete Redgi’s Armoury
You’ll need to find all weapons and armors in the game. You’ll find about 80% just by completing the game. The other 20% are found by entering all rooms in the game. There are no hidden treasures, everything is in plain sight or buried, but it will show up clearly when you enter rooms.

Be sure to check the map from time to time, in order to get your waypoints! Another great tip is to save at each blue lanturn you encounter, otherwise, you’ll be respawned at your latest checkpoint upon death!

Upon completing the story you will be able to explore the world, so don’t worry about missing any trophies.

Tails of Iron Trophy Guide – Knoef Trophy Guides (23)End of the Mozis
Defeat the Mozi Queen

You will encounter the Mozi Queen early on in-game. It’s one of the first real bosses that triggers a trophy. It is, however, story-related.

The attacks of the mozi queen:

White attack: It will fire an acid stream forward, which can be blocked with a shield. It’s best if you manage to roll behind it and get a few hits in.

This can also trigger an attack where it goes upwards and fires an acid stream downwards, followed up by a red circled attack that can only be dodged.

Red attack: A charge attack forward in close range. Roll out of range to dodge.

Red circle attack: You will see grass falling from the ceiling. It will hit that area. Dodge but stay close to get some hits in.

Another Red circle attack is where it leaps forward and then fires an acid stream from its butt. Make sure to close in quickly to land a few hits afterward.

Yellow attack: It shoots a projectile towards you. Parry it and the Grubmother will fall onto the floor, allowing some hits!

Red charge attack: A leap forwards where it crawls a bit over the floor, dealing damage to everything in its path.

Also possible: It leaps from the air straight onto the ground and fires 3 explosive projectiles. Only dodging it will keep you safe.

When it is at half-health, it will spawn a few creeps. Kill them and the fight will continue.

Phase 2:

Red attack: Same as phase 1.

Red charge attack: Leap forward and will then go underground to do a leap attack. The ground will shake and indicate where it will come up.

Ratnor is an optional boss fight in terms of the storyline but is required for this trophy and the Complete Redgi’s Armoury trophy. It is a challenging fight but will reward you with a legendary weapon (max damage) early on in the game, which can be quite useful later on.

The attack patterns of Ratnor:

White attack: It throws its hammer across the field. This will follow with a red charge attack, where it will jump towards the hammer and back to the middle of the field, where it calls back its hammer.

Red attack: It attacks forwards, turns around, and attacks in the other direction.

Also possible: It fires lighting in front of it, the range is not endless. Either stay behind it or as far as possible in front of him.

Red charge attack: It calls upon the sky to strike with lightning. Yellow sparkles indicate where it will hit.

Phase 2 (half HP):
It will lose a leg and will limp. It also summons 2 minions. You can kill those with your ranged weapon.

Phase 3 (1/3 HP):
It will crawl over the floor. In both Phase 2 and 3 the attack patterns won’t change, it will move less quickly, however.

Tails of Iron Trophy Guide – Knoef Trophy Guides (31)Complete Redgi’s Armoury
Collect all weapons and armours

Weapons and armours can be acquired in a few ways:

– Blueprints. You’ll get these from completing missions and you can buy them at the merchants (Moletown & Long Tail Village). Exchange them in the castle for weapons

– Complete (side)-missions. You will need to complete all (side)-missions within the game

– Defeating bosses. A few bosses will drop some good loot! Ratnor for example drops a legendary one-handed hammer.

– Visiting all areas. Some areas contain treasure chests, which contain items you need. Make sure you re-visit areas you could not access before, such as areas contaminated with poison.

The weapons/armors themselves aren’t named. That makes listing them very hard. It is possible to check which things you found in the castle. There is an armory room where you can view all weapons and armor pieces. However, it is tough to match those visually to the ones found ingame.
