)Introduction
Welcome to the Vampyr Trophy Guide! This is a semi-open world Action-RPG about Vampires. The gameplay centers mostly around fast-paced combat. There are many types of weapons and skills. The trophy list consists of only 29 trophies. The reason 15 of them are missable is because there’s no free-roam after the story (the game just ends and you have to start from scratch). Most of these trophies are so easy though that they come naturally. There’s only one super missable trophy called “Not even once” that requires you to never embrace (kill for XP) any citizens. As of Patch 1.07 the trophy can no longer be obtained in Story Mode and must be done on Normal or Hard difficulty instead. This should be your primary focus along with collectibles. To get the platinum in one playthrough you must make a backup in Chapter 1 after the boat ride with Dr. Swansea (Spare/Kill Clay) and another backup at start of Chapter 6 (can free-roam to every area to mop up missing collectibles). In Chapter 6 you can still free-roam around all areas to mop up missing trophies and collectibles.
Step 1: Play through the Story without embracing any Citizens, find Collectibles along the way
Follow the Weapon & Collectible Guide to find everything as you play through the game. Do not embrace (kill for XP) any citizens over an entire playthrough for trophy “Not even once”. You just can’t mesmerize them yourself to drink their blood. Killing enemies (human vampire hunters who fight you in the streets) is okay and does not impact the trophy. The trophy concerns only non-hostile named citizens (the people from citizen menu). You do not have to heal them, ever. They can never die from sickness no matter how long you wait. So don’t bother running all over the map to heal people, they would just get sick again but no sickness can ever kill them. There are also a few story-related characters linked to trophies whose fate you must decide. Always spare them or sacrifice XP to turn them into vampires. If citizens turn into monsters or go missing that’s okay and even killing them in monster form does not void “Not even once”. However, avoid turning any districts hostile (health below 50%), this would kill everyone in it and then you can no longer get the collectibles from those citizens. Not being able to consume citizens’ blood means you will be very underleveled but luckily the game is relatively easy and you can restore health with the Autophagy skill when needed.
With the help of some well placed save game backups you can do everything in one playthrough instead of two. Read the below points (Chapter 1 & Chapter 6) very carefully and back up your game when you get to those points (even better, do a backup at the start of every chapter in case something goes wrong).
Update Patch 1.07: The trophy “Not even once” is no longer obtainable in Story Mode (easiest difficulty) since patch 1.07. If you have the disc version, you can disconnect from the internet before installing the game so it doesn’t download the patch. This way the trophy can still be earned in Story Mode. If you decide to do it with patch 1.07 or above, remember you must play on Normal or Hard difficulty to unlock it!
Save Game Backups:
Go to PS4 Settings > Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage > Copy to USB Storage (if you back up to PS+ Cloud make sure to disable Auto-Upload or else it automatically overwrites the save).
- Chapter 1, Objective “Conduct Research on my New Condition”: After the boat ride with Dr. Swansea, when you arrive at the hospital by boat, make a backup. There are two trophies here that cancel each other out “Just take a bite” & “Merciful release”. Do “Just take a bit”, then copy back save to do “Merciful release”.
- Chapter 6: Make a backup at the start of Chapter 6! After this chapter the game ends and there is no more free-roam after the story. After the story you would have to start a new game which deletes all progress you have made. It is absolutely vital you make a manual backup here. Then you can kill everyone for their collectibles. After you got all collectible trophies, restore the backup and everyone will be back alive, then finish the story to pop the ‘Not even once’ trophy. Of course you can also do it the other way around, finish game first and then restore the chapter 6 backup to mop up collectibles.
Xbox One Players: Quit the game where you want to make a backup to trigger the automatic cloud upload > (double-check that it really uploaded to the cloud) > get desired achievements WITHOUT EXITING THE GAME (exiting the game overwrites cloud save!) > as soon as desired achievement pops, press Home-Button > scroll down to Vampyr > press Options > Manage Game > Saved Data > click Gamertag > Delete Saved Data > Delete from Console > if it still shows the save, delete it again until it’s gone > press Home-Button and restart the game > it will now sync/download your backup save from cloud!
Step 2: Chapter 6 Mop-up
If you made a manual save game backup at the start of Chapter 6 you can restore it and free-roam around the map to clean up what you have left. If you killed all citizens for their collectibles in Chapter 6 you can now restore the backup and they will be alive again. Then proceed to the final boss fight and finish the story for trophy ‘Not even once’. Of course it also works the other way around, finish story first and then restore backup to clean up collectibles.
Remember, after the final boss fight there is no more free-roam. There is no way back and without a backup of your save game you would have to start a new playthrough from scratch.

Just take a bite Embrace Clay during your first meeting with him |
|
| In Chapter 1, after you get on the boat with Doctor Swansea and arrive at the hospital, there’s a guy called Clay at the docks. He’s the first citizen you can embrace (drain his blood for XP) or leave him alive. For this trophy you must choose to embrace (kill) him.
Important: Embracing Clay voids the “Not even once” & “Merciful release” trophies. When you reach the hospital, make a manual save game backup. PS4 Settings > Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage > Copy (to PS Cloud or USB Storage). After doing this trophy, copy back the save to get “Mericful release” and spare Clay. |

Pest control Eat 10 rats |
|
You need to eat a total of 10 rats across your playthrough. You can scan for them with  and they will be marked in red. This will most likely come naturally. There are plenty of rats and they respawn when you go in and out of a safe house or revisit an area at a later time. They are often found in sewers, on the graveyard etc. For example in graveyard north of Pembroke Hospital there are always lots of rats near the safe house. No real need to farm this though, rats usually come in packs of 3 when you encounter them. There are also infinite rats spawning in the Castle of Chapter 7. |

Step 1: Find pure water in West-End District. It’s in a building on the opposite side of Kimura Tadaos house (the little market area north of Reid’s Mansion/Hideout). You go to this district in Chapter 4. Step 2: Water the plant in your office at Pembroke Hospital (next to the bed & workbench). It’s a small plant in a pot. Step 3: Sleep for 3 nights in a row. Step 4: After 3 nights the plant will have grown green leaves. Interact with it to unlock the trophy (if the plant needs more time to grow sleep for longer). |

 |
|
» Vampyr How to Get Recollection of Paulus Aurelianus (In-Depth Guide) The recollection of Paulus Aurelianus is a sword under the Temple Church in the northern part of West-End district. The earliest chance to go there is during Chapter 5 (story takes you there). However, you can’t actually unlock the weapon until Chapter 6. There’s a guy called Usher Talltree (fortune teller) sitting there. In front of him on the stairs are 4 pressure pads on the floor, they make a noise when you step on them. Behind the wall by the pressure pads is the sword you need. The order is RANDOMIZED for every player and will be different for everybody. Luckily, there are in-game clues to figure out the correct combination. In order to figure out the pattern, do Usher’s side quest to get his notebook but DO NOT read the notebook. Then he gives you a collectible document with a drawing of 4 symbols in the rop RIGHT corner (the collectible is called “The Brotherhood of Saint-Paul Stole: Origin of the Brotherhood”). See the image below. Usher’s Collectible Document (The Brotherhood of Saint-Paul Stole: Origin of the Brotherhood):
The same document from another player, showing slightly different symbols and in different order.
The order on which you must step on the pressure pads is:
The drawing shows the symbols, adjust the above 6 moves to fit with your game. The drawing also show the layout of where the 4 pressure pads, you can see the stairs are also in the drawing at the left and bottom. The symbols on this document are in a different order for every player. If the above order doesn’t work you can check all other document collectibles if they have a white dot in the top LEFT corner (you must have found all 30 collectibles first and then click on them in the collectible overview). Refer to the Vampyr Collectible Guide for their locations. The dots on the different collectible documents show you how often you need to step on each pressure plate. With this info you can figure out the correct combination (it’s always 6 moves total).
It’s different for every player so you must get Usher’s collectible document and step on Fish > Circle (or “P”) > Square > Circle (or “P”) > Fish > Rhombus. Or you can find all collectibles in your game and use the clues on them to get the solution that applies to you. (Special thanks to MackDaddyT99 & SnowNinjaRaccoon & Amfiray for their tips about this trophy). |

Hippocratic oath Heal 10 citizens |
|
| Over the course of the game citizens will fall sick. This is indicated by the yellow part of their health bar and the yellow spores on their icon in the citizen menu. Talk to everyone at every settlement to unlock their health status in the menu. To speed things up you can sleep in your bed for a few nights and they will all get sick. Then craft the medicine that cures their sickness (more medicine is unlocked at the workbench over the course of the game. The cure to headache, migraine, neuralgia are bought from Dorothy Crane in Whitechapel).
To hand the sick people medicine press The cheapest option is to cure 10 people as soon as they fall sick. Personally, I did it in Chapter 6 when everyone had a level 3 sickness. Even though it’s more expensive by this point I had enough materials to produce the cures and enough money to buy ingredients. So even at the end of the game it’s quite possible. You should make a manual backup of your save beforehand. Then you can copy it back to regain all materials and money spent on ingredients (PS4 Settings > Application Saved Data Management). |

 |
That’s better Upgrade a weapon with a module |
|
| After upgrading a weapon for the first time (see trophy “Solid metal gear”) you will unlock two module slots for the weapon. Modules add special modifiers such as blood drain. Purchase any one module and the trophy will unlock. | ||
 |
Work in progress Upgrade a weapon |
|
| See trophy “Solid metal gear”. | ||
 |
Solid metal gear Upgrade a weapon to level 5 |
|
| You can upgrade weapons at the workbench of any safe house as well as in your office in the hospital. Safe Houses are marked on the map. To do the upgrade you must find materials. They are randomly dropped by enemies, found in containers everywhere, and can also be bought from merchants. For this trophy you must upgrade a weapon to the maximum, level 5.
Once you reach the West-End district in Chapter 4 you can buy most materials from merchants. There’s a merchant in West-End district near the Ascalon Club that sells plenty of upgrade materials. You will also get lots of materials from exploration and story progress. Always pick up what the enemies drop and search every place you visit thoroughly. By the time you reach Chapter 6 you should have more than enough materials to fully upgrade a weapon. Use the materials wisely, on a weapon you actually intend to use. |

Not even once Finish the game without killing any citizens (not unlockable in Story Mode) |
|
| Update Patch 1.07: The trophy is no longer obtainable in Story Mode (easiest difficulty) since patch 1.07. If you have the disc version, you can disconnect from the internet before installing the game so it doesn’t download the patch. This way the trophy can still be earned in Story Mode. If you decide to do it with patch 1.07 or above, remember you must play on Normal or Hard difficulty to unlock it!
*This trophy may be glitchy. For most people it works fine, for others it doesn’t unlock despite doing everything perfectly. If it doesn’t unlock for you, reinstall the game and stop the download of patches (go offline), replay the game with version 1.00. This only works with the disc version, because the digital version will download patches automatically* You must finish an entire playthrough (all 7 chapters) without embracing any citizen. The keyword here is “embrace” which you normally do by pressing Drinking the blood of citizens is your main source of XP on a normal playthrough. By going for this trophy you cut out the biggest source of XP so you’ll be constantly underleveled. It makes the game harder but it still is easy enough. Thanks to your healing skill “Authophagy” you are pretty much undefeatable. Coupled with an Off-Hand Weapon that offers instant blood absorption (such as the Liston Knife) you can hit an enemy once and have enough blood to heal yourself 2-3 times in a row. If you platinumed fighting-oriented games like Bloodborne, Dark Souls or Witcher 3 you shouldn’t have any problem whatsoever and will find this easy in comparison. The most difficult parts are the boss fights. If you run into any trouble, refer to their respective trophies below. You are allowed to kill human enemies (Vampire Hunters) who fight you in the streets. Drinking their blood is okay. The trophy concerns only non-hostile named citizens (the people from citizen menu). If citizens turn into monsters it’s okay to kill them, that doesn’t void the trophy. They are also allowed to go missing. However, avoid turning a district Hostile (district health dropping below 50%) -> it would instantly kill everyone in the district. Story-related Decisions & Exceptions:
My Final Result when the trophy unlocked (Citizen Menu): Here are the screenshots of my citizen menu just before the final cutscene, from my playthrough that unlocked the trophy using the story decisions described above. 
Recommended Skills & Weapons Build: My build is based on high damage and stun power with a Two-Handed Mace. When enemies are stunned you can bite them to extract blood. Heal yourself and repeat. I also use the Liston Knife, an Off-Hand weapon that transfers blood on every hit. One hit with a fully upgraded Liston Knife is enough for 3 heals (1 heal without any upgrades). This weapon allows you to just keep healing yourself or spam your skills. I don’t recommend putting many XP in active skills. They are too expensive, require blood to use, and do too little damage. Put your points in physical attributes, first and foremost health and stamina. Melee weapons do a lot more damage than skills. –> For Weapon Locations follow the Vampyr Weapons & Collectibles Guide.
All other skills you can skip. You can test other skills if you want and reset them later (first reset is for free). Don’t reset too often or it will get too expensive. |

Bury the hatchet Defeat McCullum |
|
|
Automatic story-related trophy, cannot be missed. Unlocks in Chapter 5 after defeating McCullum in Pembroke Hospital. The video above shows the boss on the ‘Not even once’ playthrough. He is the toughest boss in the game. I highly recommend you upgrade your favorite weapon to level 5 first. Also put points in Stamina and Health bar (at least level 7 on those passive skills). The ultimate move ‘Abyss’ is highly recommended. While using this skill, McCullum will be stunned and you can keep attacking him. This means massive damage from the skill + your barrage of repeated melee attacks while he is defenseless. When the fight starts attack him until you’re out of stamina, use the ultimate, keep attacking until out of Stamina. With this I depleted 40% of his entire health in just seconds. Now just keep dodging around until your ultimate has recharged and repeat. |
||
 |
Unnatural Disaster Defeat The Disaster |
|
|
Automatic story-related trophy, cannot be missed. Unlocks in Chapter 6 after defeating the endboss in the sewers. The video above shows the boss on the ‘Not even once’ playthrough. This is a double boss. Luckily, the first one has very little health. One Ultimate move and a bunch of melee attacks will kill the first boss ‘Disaster Harriet’. Then the real endboss spawns. Her attacks don’t do much damage but she is very fast and uses Vampyr skills constantly. Try to keep your Stamina high at all times so you can dodge to the boss, land one hit, dodge away, repeat. Your Ultimate Move will likely be depleted from the first boss but should recharge fast enough to land the killing blow on the endboss. In theory you could keep dodging around until the Ultimate is recharged to cheese this boss. |

 |
London’s burning Turn all districts to hostile status |
|
| There are 4 districts in total: The Docks, Prembroke Hospital, Whitechapel, West End.
You must turn all of these to hostile status. The earliest opportunity for this is in Chapter 4 when you reach the last district (West End). The fastest way to turn all districts hostile is to sleep in your bed for many nights in a row until every citizen has a level 3 illness. You can check this in the citizen menu (3 yellow spores on the person’s avatar). Then kill 2-4 more people in the district and it will be hostile. Walk up to someone and press The overall health status of a district can be seen in the citizen menu. When it falls below 50% it turns hostile. Then all people in the district die and monsters will roam the streets. This obviously voids the “Not even once” trophy (don’t kill anyone). To get both trophies in one run you must make a manual save game backup, ideally at the start of Chapter 6 (PS4 Settings > Application Saved Data Management). After getting one trophy you can restore the manual backup to get the other. |
||
when talking to them. The less sick they are the cheaper the medicine is to produce (less ingredients needed). You can tell by the amount of yellow spores on each person’s icon in the citizen menu. 1 spore means level 1 sickness, 2 spores is level 2 sickness and 3 spores is level 3 sickness.
while talking to a person and then luring them to a quiet place for the kill. Do not do this.
Awesome guide! Would be 2 playthroughs for me, though, as I would be playing on Xbox and can’t backup my saves
Can I play through the game till chapter 6 and then get all weapons and collectibles or can they be missed 8f I don’t follow guide.
I’m not 100% absolutely sure yet. It’s something I’m currently exploring. Most likely yes, if you didn’t kill any citizens (if you kill Usher and one of the merchants you will miss collectibles).
Since I only tested collecting them chronologically throughout the story that’s the only thing I can confirm to be working at this time.
I do recommend you get them as you play. They give XP & lots of weapons. This is very helpful on the pacifist playthrough and for general gameplay.
Ok cheers mate last question is it ok to kill the enemies on pacifist play through?
Oh yes, of course. You can (and have to) kill the Vampire Hunters (human enemies) who fight you in the streets. For the trophy you just can’t mesmerize any citizens. Killing enemies is okay 🙂
I’m gonna add a note about that in the guide.
? thanks mate.
Some people asked me what makes it a 5/10 difficulty: It’s just the bosses on the pacifist playthrough. If you finished Bloodborne or Dark Souls it’s a 2/10 in comparison. It really depends on personal experience with these kinds of games… it’s doable for everyone though, just some bosses might take trial and error (McCullum is the hardest by far). There are no difficulty options so everyone will be playing on the same difficulty level.

Bloody Roots trophy
First of all, thanks so much for posting this!
I tried exactly how you did for 2 hours and it doesn’t work for me. Sent it to a friend and it didn’t work for him either.
Now here it gets REALLY weird. My friend got it to work with another combination. We compared with your video, were making drawings of the pressure plates we stepped on, wrote them down, counted how many of each plates he hit vs. how many you hit.
What we came up with is that the last 7 pressure plates from you and what my friend did give the same shape when drawing them on paper, but the order of the pressure plates he hit was different.
So then I ran the shape in every orientation possible… for 2 hours, again and again at different speeds. It didn’t work for me.
My friend narrowed it down further to only 6 pressure plates needed. He reloaded his save game and confirmed multiple times only 6 need to be stepped on in his game. It didn’t work with 5.
So the number of pressure plates we conclude seems to be 6. The order, however, seems to be COMPLETELY RANDOM or there’s a hint somewhere in the game that solves it.
We further investigated everything to do with Usher, the guy sitting in the basement. Two interesting things… when you do his side quest and get his notebook, if you read it there’s a holy cross drawing in his notebook. But it didn’t match the shape we walked on pressure pads. If you DO NOT read his notebook he gives you a collectible document instead. The doc has a drawing in top right corner showing 4 symbols with lines drawn between them. These look very similar to the path we talked on the pads, but not identical.
I’m now testing on different saves if my collectible has a different drawing on it than my friend’s. Though I have a feeling this is another ruse.
Right now, my conclusion is that it’s random and different for every player, although there might be a hint somewhere in the game.
I’m gonna update the trophy description and embed your video and my friend’s. Then we need to wait for community feedback to see their combination and form a pattern out of all the data we get.
someone on psnp posted some more info about the bloody roots trophy. seems like it has to do with multiple collectibles or something (didn’t play the game yet).
That’s the solution we found and someone reposted there without giving credit lol^^
It’s already in the guide, but thanks.
I just unlocked the sword in chapter 5. I used your diagram for the location of the symbols and used my own collectibles. I only had 4 clues (still missing 10 collectibles): So i tried guessing the two missing clues (got it first try :p). My solution was:
Fish located at top (by wall that opens)
Square, right side
Diamond, bottom
Circle left side
And the solution:
1. Fish
2. Circle
3. Square
4. Circle
5. Fish
6. Diamond
With the “Just take a bite” and “Merciful release” trophies, you can simply embrace clay, pause, let the trophy pop up, return to the menu and than resume your load and you can than simply release him.
Awesome guide as always!! 🙂
I can confirm that this works! 🙂
It’s mandatory to do the sidequests and investigations?
They auto-fail over time?
Side Quests don’t fail over time, you can keep them all for Chapter 6.
About investigations… I just did the ones I ran into during the story. Don’t think they can fail. I still got them to show up in Chapter 6.
Thanks powerpyx for the awesome guide! Will wait for the full guide including the missing parts
*Updated guide with an important note for Xbox One players*
Since there’s no manual backup function on XB1 you will need 2 playthroughs (killing people for their collectibles voids ‘Not even once’). For Xbox One players it’s recommended to do the ‘Not even once’ (no kills) playthrough first. Then do the collectibles in the second playthrough when you know the game better. The order of the chapter 6 collectibles is still work-in-progress (very complicated). There’s a bunch of stuff that contradict each other and locks other collectibles. On XB1 better focus on no kills run first until the collectible guide is complete.
should be possible on xbox, too.
just quit the game at the point you want to have a backup to trigger the automatic cloud upload (perhaps double-check that it really uploaded to the cloud). then just go offline (pull the cable or w/e) and do the first action to get the achievement, delete your local gamesave, go online again to automatically re-download your cloud-save and continue with the other path normally.
[Link removed]
In this video he doesn’t even go offline, but i guess it would be safer to do so?! Not sure when the cloud-sync actually happens, if it’s only when you quit the game you should be safe to just continue online and delete the local save in-game(!), like he did in the video.
Thank you! I didn’t know this was possible. Will add it to the guide 🙂
Hi I followed the guide on my Xbox one to get the weapons collectibles and had removed my internet cable prior to embracing any citizen and after collecting all the weapons no achievements unlocked. I then reconnected the cable while still in the game and it automatically updated my cloud save overwriting my no kills run, stopping my ability to get the not even once achievement.
It seems those those perceived it was possible to do this offline were incorrect as the Xbox doesn’t allow achievements to be gained offline, even Xbox support says you must be connected to xboxlive to gain achievements, also if you had already completed the requirements then try completing the achievement again, so your belief it needs 2 playthroughs on the xboxone is accurate and the other comments are inaccurate.
For trophy “Not even once” I can’t killl any citizens. It means I can’t kill anyone during entire playthrough?
You can kill enemies (even human ones, the so called ‘Vampire Hunters’… guys with weapons and shotguns who attack you in the streets).
You just can’t Mesmerize non-hostile named citizens found in peaceful settlements (the people from Citizen Menu).
You would have to go out of your way to kill an actual Citizen. About normal enemies you don’t have to worry and can kill them/drink their blood.
So I killed a citizen turned vampire, I assume my trophy is gone?
Shit I erase dorothi memories and now she is missing I hope don’t void the trophy
As long as you din’t kill her, you should be safe, it counts as spare her but not 100%. The trophy says don’t kill any citizen, meaning that you need to kill them, with that decision she just goes away.
Powerpyx! Thanks again for the guide.
However you could correct something.
You mention somewhere that you should USB save and not use PS+ cloud save.
However you can disable the autosave to cloud in the settings.
You can specifically select Vampyr to not autosave the game to the cloud.
I’ve rephrased that part, thanks.
might also worth adding that if you plug a keyboard and go to the upgrade menu (bed), go to a power and then hold down OP, its keeps giving you tons of exp
As of 2019, the XP cheat no longer works (for me on PS4). Not sure if uninstalling patches works, because I’m playing this via PS Now.
So I’m on chapter 3 and I’ve just slept I woke up and citizen hsiao shun is now dead is this going to affect the trophy for not killing anyone?
I think this was because before the burial I ignored saving her in the graveyard. I then slept at the next hideout and when I woke up the citizen list updated and showed her now as dead. Might be worth knowing if it now glitches any of the trophies.
So about the dying swansea trophy and all the rest fate trophy will that effect not even once trophy and you mentioned about mcullum to spare him will you able to fight him still am still planning on buying this game that why i ask lol
For the “fate” trophies you can always decide whether to spare or kill them. Just pick the spare option then you can get ‘Not even once’ in same run.
Does killing skal dorothy after charming her in Chapter 2 voids the Not even Once trophy?
Doesn’t void it. It’s okay to kill “people” once they have turned into monsters.
The trophy is only concerned with not embracing anyone. Killing citizens after they turned to monsters is okay to do.
Alrighty guys, updated the trophy description of “Bloody roots”.
At least we now know it’s just a matter of stepping on the pressure plates.
Bad news is that the combination is random for every player and you need to find the collectible documents to get the solution that applies to you, they hold the clues.
Hello , I noticed one thing in your videos : The palte’s colors are all the same. I don’t konw whether the PS4 version is the reason . I play it on PC . My four paltes have different kinds of black colors to some degree. Southern and western paltes are the same as yours . However , the eastern palte is more black than the western one ,and the northern one is the most black . I mean the range of black on the plate. You see the western one has a small black dirty mark on it. Maybe they are bugs of texture. I hope this clue may be helpful ,although I haven’t finish my 6 steps . It also seems kind of farfetched ,which may be misleading.
(My English is poor , I’m a Chinese player ,excuse me.)
Video One worked for me with bloody roots
Good to know! That points towards a certain number of predefined possibilities.
So the amount of correct solutions is probably limited, but every player will get a different one.
Guys, I found a solution! Here there is no random. On the collectables documents, the author of which is Usher, in the corner there are drawn symbols that corresponds to the plates, with a certain number of dots indicating the index number of pressing the plate. Look at the document “Origin of the Brotherhood”, compare your pictograms with drawings from other documents… PROFIT!!!
Where exactly do you see the dots? (for number of times you need to hit pressure pads)
Also, the symbols on that document are different for every player it seems (or at least a certain number of possibilities)?
In my case it was on this:
The Myth of the Horned Vampire
Origin of the Skals
Blood as Addiction
The Crime of Lost Knowledge
Rare Species of Vampires
Laughing at the Guard
It’s definitely some pool of variations, but the key on Usher’s manuscripts, I assure you. That was a nice brainstorm, but I did this.
Damn nice! This is some really good info.
I think that may actually solve it. I’m seeing those dots on other documents now with the corresponding symbols from Usher’s document. I’m gonna run some final tests. But yeah… this is the missing piece!
I found them too . It’s ture! thank you !
It works for me, without hours of blind plate running.
Don’t forget to mention me in your video!;)
I haven’t opened the wall in my game yet, but I noticed that the drawing on the collectable you get from Usher is different for me than the 1 you posted in the guide. I have a circle shape where the P symbol is in your picture.
So i forgot to complete the “spoils of war” side quest from Giselle Paxton and i slept and after she appeared as a hostile hunter due to her respective area turning critical…i was forced to kill her,did i void the pacifist run?
I know killing Dorothy after she turns into a Monster doesn’t void it.
So killing other NPCs after they turn hostile (or into monsters) shouldn’t void it either.
Having just completed the game and only killing the Paxton sisters and the drunk after sparing Sean Hampton this does void the trophy.
Well I beat the game today without embrace anybody and the trophy doesn’t pop.
The 3 points in conflict are:
I wipe the memory of Dorothi and some citiziens disapear.
I spare Sean, after that the district become hostile and some citiziens disapear.
I drink the blood of the guy in Mary’s fight.
I think the problem is that your district turned hostile.
I can 100% confirm that Dorothi turning into a monster and drinking blood from guy in Mary fight do not void the trophy.
A district turning hostile instantly kills everyone there so that’s probably it. Sparing Sean doesn’t turn it hostile (you obviously have to spare him for Not even once). You must have lost some citizens there to make the health drop below 50%.
I can confirm that when you spare sean and the district turns hostile it does not void the trophy. I noticed when I turned all districts hostile for London burns trophy no citizens died even when the districts status turned hostile until I killed someone and then slept for one day.
True, they only die when you sleep.
Killing a citizen turned into a monster doesn’t void the trophy. Just if killing them brings the district health below 50% and you then sleep it turns hostile and kills everyone in it.
Even if you killed Sean (monster form), you could just heal all the other NPCs in the Docks to keep health above 50%.
After Spare him he become’s mad and kill all their followers.
Maybe the previous choices make diferent outcome
In my next run I wanna heal with the blood to see the diference
Okay let me know how it goes.
Hey guys,
there seems to be an order to the “Bloody roots” pressure pads.
It’s:
Fish
Circle (or “P”)
Square
Circle (or “P”)
Fish
Rhombus
So you just need to get Usher’s document it seems. They show what pressure pad correlates to what symbol in your game.
Would be great to have more confirmation on this. So far this order of 6 moves seems to have worked for everyone. Then you can skip checking all the collectibles for the order.
For the “not even once” trophy i dont have to give the citizens medicine right? But doesnt that mean the district is becoming hostile and everyone will die?
I never gave anyone medicine in my whole playthrough and nothing turned hostile.
The reason being that even though their blood value decreases, they never die from their sickness. I intentionally slept 30 times in a row and nobody died, the district health cannot drop below 50% with everyone in it alive.
How can a district fall below 50% then?
By killing people in the district.
So I’m on the boss fight in the sewers the one with Harriet jones and the boss after her is level 51?! I’m level 35 is this normal? It’s physically impossible to beat her and all the people in the city are dead so I can’t level up anymore…
Does killing vamped up Dorothi void any achievement ? She wasn’t a citizen anymore, If that voids anything I’ma be mad :p
No, doesn’t void anything.
I’m desperately trying to get the Common Mace in the sewers where Bridget and Harriet are. Problem is I’m on chapter 5 and I can’t find my way back. Can someone please tell me exactly how to get back there?
I treated two NPCs at the hospital, did I lose the “not even once” trophy? 🙁
I just finished the speed run using de XP glitch and I got the Not even once.
The mayor diference from the first run are:
I spare dorothi NOT wipe his memories
I spare sean and again turns mad but this time I don’t kill him and the district become critical but not hostile.
If you killed Sean that’s what made the district fall to hostile status and voided the trophy.
Are you going to make all collectibels video pyx?? And do the destricts need to be hostile ot serious for collecting?? I mean i killed manu many humans and enjoyed the blood and i got from thr corpses 5 handguns .. which is needed for trophy
Video will be up today/tomorrow. Almost done.
Dear powerpyx.
Thank you for creating the guide. Also thank you for your sacrifice of playing this game for a week.
This game did honestly surprise of how much shit it is.
Never went to the morgue in chapter 2, looked up a video and the key isnt there. RIP trophy?
Yeah so you’re not actually forced to go to the old morgue like the weapons guide says. I already crafted the needed medicine and completed the quest as soon as it started. If you go the morgue afterwards there is no key to get to the basement and get the weapon. Had to reload the Clay backup.
Trophy Guide & Collectible Guide now 100% complete.
I’m a bit late to the party with this as I’ve only just picked up this game. I might have a problem collecting all off hand weapons as I had already completed the wrong target mission from Thelma, unfortunately I didn’t pick up the used Priwen stake at the time. I’ve gone back to collect and it’s no longer there. I’m guessing I needed to grab it whilst on the mission. If that’s the case maybe you should add this to your guide to help others from making the same mistake. Love your guides, very helpful
For the Not Even Once trophy, if all others I may make vampires, why not also Cullum?
It would be a waste of much needed XP.
But I can make Cullum vampire and still get the Not Even Once trophy? Thus I would avoid the hardest battle in the game (as you say).
There is no way to skip his battle. I never said you could^^
Probably the trophy still unlocks, but I can’t confirm it (I chose spare). Turning him to a Vampire (only possible AFTER defeating him) costs 1000XP. Why waste this much XP, there’s just no point in it when you can use that instead to buy yourself a health upgrade. Sparing him is the best option.
Got it. That battle is not hard at all, if one has patience. Just keep avoiding lights and waiting for the ultimate shadow power to charge. Meanwhile striking him after his attacks.
Still, we can also save 2000xp by charming Dawson.
It requires an optional hint that not every player has. Therefore it’s not a reliable method to base a guide on. In my own game the option was not available.
Same happened to me, spared Sean. Didn’t kill anybody in the docks.
Returned back saw Sean and some others turned hostile. I didn’t kill anybody and left.
Next night District turned hostile.
Don’t even know if i should try to continue as it probably voids “Not even once run”
PowerPyx could you describe in details what else you have done in the district?
Sean was hostile right? You didn’t kill him?
I spared Sean.
Never did any side quests, never talked to anyone I didn’t have to. When talking to quest chars I only picked the mandatory yellow quest dialogues. My entire playthrough was bare minimum, only main objectives and saving people I randomly ran into. When I got to Sean I hadn’t unlocked his hint (only had spare & kill options, the third option was locked for me).
If you do the absolute minimum (just main objectives, nothing else) you should get through it fine. For me Sean also turned into a monster later and the place got overrun by Skals. But as long as you don’t go back there to kill him yourself it should be fine. Killing Monster-Sean is probably what brings down the district’s health, thus it turns hostile.
You can try healing the people in the district before getting to Sean. Then the health should stay high enough (although I never ever healed a single person in my entire playthrough so it cannot be mandatory, but it’s a workaround to solve your problem).
Thank you very much, i decided to go for it and complete the game with hostile distinct and got “Not even once”. Thanks a lot for the guide for such game. I believe it was pretty annoying.
Yeah! Same for me, Sean went mad and killed a lot of people. Even tough the % is over 50.
Now i cant find Martin as it seems that Sean killed him and made his collectible lost.
Are you sure Sean really killed them?
For me the Night Shelter just got overrun by Skals and everyone who was previously there went to other places in the Western Docks. They didn’t die for me, they just moved to other places to get away from Sean and the Skals.
At first I too thought I’m screwed and he turned them all to Skals but after a little search I found everyone who I needed for collectibles.
PP. though i cant find those guys anywhere.
Hello i accidently killed Sean and does this completely void my not even once trophy or do i have a chance to get it?
info: Sean has turned insane after sparing him and then i killed him*
I’m on chapter 6 and I’m trying to go for the londons burning trophy. I have all 4 districts below 40 percent and they say hostile but the trophy wont pop. I killed Sean Hampton, I turned edgar into a vampire, it says dorothy has gone missing, and I turned dawson into a vampire. Any suggestions?
Why are there specific requirements for Not even Once regarding each decision, so long as you don’t embrace it’s fine no?
For instance can you turn Sean and charm Aloysius, or are the listed choices set in stone for the trophy?
Not Even Once did not pop on PS4… Cannot believe this… All living…three made ekons…
It appears to be glitchy with latest patch.
Friends of mine have the same problem.
Need to gather more data on this. For now might be best to replay on version 1.00.
Thank you for that information. Could it work, if I reset to 1.00 and finish the game from the epilogue save? …Will try…
Same here!
Now i try one last time with Sean turned to be a vampire.
Finished from “Guinea Pig” save on 1.00 and nothing…
Looks like a new playthrough is required :/
This stuff is definitely glitchy.
Official response is that killing that vicar in fight against Mary counts as embracing… If anyone got the trophy doing this, it is glitch…
Do you have a link for that? What if Mary consumes him?
He is not a citizen. I definitely did it, so did many others and trophy unlocked fine o_O

ps4-not-even-once-glitch/7
Thanks for that!!!
I definitely 1000% for certain killed that guy (I even have it on video in my Mary boss fight video). Rather than a “positive glitch” I think it’s a bad glitch because he is not a citizens and it’s not a real “embrace”. Also makes no sense that people get the trophy despite entire districts going hostile.
I made a note of it in the guide to not kill this guy. Now hopefully that solves the trophy issue.
Played again without killing that vicar in fight against Mary and Reid’s eyes were immaculately white until the end. (That time with that vicar killed they became tainted with red.) The end differed (best end) and got the trophy. Solved.
Same here , I spared Sean and the disnict was serious and after i complete my progress in the game I just saw the disnict turned critical And one the people is dead and three of them are missing ( I didn’t killed any ) what is the problem here why one of the people is dead even the status didn’t reach the hostile status ?!
The one who died is requiring for the collectables
Who died in your game? Are you sure they are dead and didn’t just relocate?
I spared Sean and nobody died. They just went to different places because Night Shelter got overrun by Skals, but they are alive in my game. Nobody who matters for collectibles can die automatically.
One named GISLLE PAXTON actually i see a X mark on her face and a dead word in front of her face
what does a relocate looks like on the manu ?
You are wrong PowerPyx Martin dies and like him also other citizens if it becomes critical level after saving Sean
Didn’t die for me. He’s in the courtyard south of the Night Shelter, I show him in the collectible video when I go there to buy his collectible (at end of game in Chapter 6). I chose to spare Sean and Docks were critical for me all game long.
And now Hsiao Shun died even tough the status of the distric is well above 50% with the pillar still alive. Damnit this frecking game is killing me.
Don’t spare Sean turn him and you don’t have to worry about it going critical
Hi, thank you for this amazing guide, but I have a question.. In mary’s fight, I killed the dying man because you said I can kill him and it won’t void the trophy, but he gave me XP and my eyes turned red. I am on my pacifist run and I am kinda scared right now.
I killed him and didn’t void anything for me 🙂
Eyes turning red might rather be from killing Mary?
Since you don’t “embrace him” (just suck his blood like you would mid-combat from any normal enemy) it doesn’t affect the trophy. I don’t think the guy is a citizen to begin with (not in citizen menu).
I did want to say this I got the not even once trophy even though I let both the doctor and the man that your first asked to turn die I wanted to put that out there just in case anybody did the same and thought they lost a chance to get it.
Made a few updates:
– Marked “Not even once” as glitched. For some people it just doesn’t unlock despite doing it correctly and picking the right choices. I also checked this with a friend of mine who has the problem. He had even more people alive at the end than me and made all the choices I did, but no trophy for him. I think the latest patch messed up some stuff (I started with version 1.00 and updated to 1.01 somewhere along the way). Since 1.03 the game is even more broken, lots of freezes, more lag…
– Added screenshots of my citizen menu from “Not even once” playthrough so you can compare who was alive in my game vs. your game.
– Added “Weapons of choice” as glitched. For some players the Used Truncheon weapon does not drop. Another weird glitch that happens to some players but not to others.
Hello, I’ve finished this game and got the Not Even Once trophy.
I thought I’d let you know what I did to help some people who might have done the same choices. I’ve played the game on the latest patch (1.03):
– I charmed Dorothy (didn’t kill her as Skal)
– I spared Sean (did kill him as a Skal)
– did exactly everything else what you did in your platinum description
Many, many citizen died in my playthrough because I didn’t help them and I killed Sean and the district became hostile.
BUT this doesn’t mean you won’t get this trophy because it worked for me.
The only condition you have to do is:
– DON’T KILL ANY CITIZENS YOURSELF.
If you didn’t kill any of the citizens you are on the save side, so it really doesn’t matter if citizens died in your playthrough or not. (for this trophy)
Got the trophy yesterday, so my save game was only on the latest patch 1.03.
yeah i got the same problem with that glitches
i cannot get the used truncheon after finishing the boss
does anyother way to get the used truncheon?
thanks
ok, so archer died in my game before i could get his weapon, is there anyway i can get the weapon? or will i just have to play through the game again?
nevermind, if you go the house where he died you can pick the weapon off of his corpse
You will have to play through the game again. If chars die there’s no way to get their weapons anymore.
Got “not even once” when i turned Sean to a vampire, and hsio dead.
Might be your gameplay that glitched in a good way pp!
This might also help:
There’s currently an infinite xp glitch, still working on 1.03.
Might help people who missed some trophies and have to do another playthrough.
– connect any USB keyboard to your PS4
– go to the skills menue
– press X (PS4 controller) on any skill
– press O+P at the same time on your keyboard
– your xp will increase
– you can buy any skills you want with this glitch
– important: not working if you are in the skills menue only, you have to choose a skill-tree!
I don’t believe this is a glitch. I think it was a feature put in to aid additional runs of the game so people wouldn’t necessarily have to worry about XP. Hence why it’s OP (OverPowered).
I did not get [Collectible #12] The Heresy of the Pure Blood in Chapter 4. Now im in chapter 5 and the door is not opening. Do i have to replay the game again?
Hey so there is a third option for Sean in chapter 3 to turn him instead of sparing or killing which still allows you to complete “Not Even Once” and it allows you to not have to worry about people going missing in the docks
What about the ppl at the beigging of the game when u killed ya sister i kept running trying to avoid them i didnt find any shelter to hide so i killed them all is that gonna avoide the trophy
In West End district Kimura Tadao is dead but I didn’t kill him. I think he is dead because I didn’t help him.It means I can’t get trophy “Not even once ” I”m in chapter 4
In district West End at citizen menu Kimura tadao is dead but I didin’t kill him.I think he is dead because I didn’t help him.It means I can’t get trophy “Not even once”
Mortimer Goswick’s door is closed in the hospital and I cant embrace him to get the collectible. how do i open the door?
It should open after a minute. When he talks to his mother it’s briefly closed and opens up automatically (that’s for chapter 6, not sure what happens if you go there earlier).
You should change the decision for Sean to turn him instead of spare him. Turning him still counts for the Not Even Once trophy and the people in the Docks don’t die/go missing and you don’t have to worry about it going critical.
Turning him is not available for every player. It wasn’t possible for me (requires a hint, no idea how to get it). So this path won’t work for everyone.
I spared him and nobody died in my game. They just relocate.
Yes but sparing him will cause a constant check to save the people in the docks which is now pretty much always at risk of becoming critical and killing people. Turning him only requires a hint which i think you get from talking to the Sewer Rat and Tom.
Never had to heal a single person in the docks and I slept 30 times in a row in chapter 6 (spared Sean in chapter 3). I suppose if someone else got killed or went missing in your game that could be the reason, but just sparing Sean does not trigger hostile status. Critical status is fine, doesn’t void anything.
My Dock’s are sat at 51% and people are missing I’ve been following your guide am I still able to get the not even once trophy or am I going to have to start again
That’s fine. People going missing doesn’t void it.
Also I was wondering as I killed the guy in the Mary boss by accident he’s the only guy I’ve killed and my eyes are dark red will I miss not even once trophy?
Mine is at 60% and people are missing after sparing Sean. Could you sleep another night without going under 50%?
I think I´ve killed him by accident too, not sure, because in my final fight Mary doesn´t drank from him…
I slept one night and the district fall to 47% hostile but no changes to the residents until now, except 6 are ill and the four missing because of Sean. Did healing the six bring the district back to critical, serious? Hope so ….
I´ve taken a vid of my Mary fight and watched it, it´s definitely that neither Mary nor Jonathan drank from the priest, hope this doesn´t effect the no even once because of a bug ;)
Thank you for your work, Powerpyx. I leave here some notes, which may help. Those citizens giving clues on their head citizen (Sean etc.) and thus unlocking that charm option (good to avoid embracing and spending xp) can be ascertained. Those documents with clues to Paulus Aurelianus’s secret are those written by primate of Saint Paul’s Stole and thus can be ascertained. With all this one can go to these citizens and documents to ease our game/speedrun.
I spare sean he and another guy are missing I sleep a few times to level up and the district turns hostile Can I get all collectibles？
I
I was wondering as I killed the guy in the Mary boss by accident he’s the only guy I’ve killed and my eyes are dark red will I miss not even once trophy?
Your guide states to turn Aloysisus into a vampire in chapter 5 but by doing so kills everyone in that district?
I now cannot do the bloody roots trophy to get the sword as usher hall tree is dead!
It didn’t kill anyone in my game.
Turning him actually makes him survive.
powerpyx in my game died lottie paxton, did I correctly all this mean I lost the collectible?
She doesn’t have a collectible.
died the sisters paxton I lost the trophy “Not even eleven” and its collectables?
Hello thank you for the guide, i cannot get Giselle to spawn so I can get the dagger any id
Giselle died and I do not have her dagger lost her collectable?****
One caution when handing over the notebook unread to Usher Talltree – be very certain that when he says he has something to give you, that you wait a moment before looking at anything. I thought he had given me a different item/document after the -1 notebook appeared on my screen then dissappeared, so I looked at what seemed to be a new item to me.
Nope – it was his notebook, and I lost my opportunity to get the cool sword.
Does Clay Cox have any collectibles that you would only get if you don’t kill him at your first opportunity to do so – waiting to kill him until he’s up and with the other patients at Pembroke?
This my favourite Guideline.
Thanks a lot
Hello I am on Chapter 4 and I seemed to have killed Gisele. Did I void my Not even once ? The guide does say I can kill villagers who turned into monsters like Dyson but what about Gisele? She had joined the Priwen so wouldn’t that be okay?
What if I sold a weapon? Do I have to keep every weapon in my inventory for the trophy to pop?
I kept them all. Never tried selling them.
powerpyx I can confirm that even if you happen to sell a weapon it would not void the trophy, i sold Used Truncheon and i still got the weapon of choice trophy.
Hello there, I have a problem with Doris boss fight in theatre. After beating her I do not obtain the weapon (saber) What to do?
Hi sir
I accidentally pressed L1 button on a citizen but I did not kill him.
Will this void the trophy ‘Not even once’?
Hi PowerPyx,
Thanks for the guide!
Can you please update it to the correct version?
With the 1.07 update they included difficulty and if you play in story mode as you suggest the “not even once” trophy cant be unlocked.
You have to play normal or hard mode to unlock it. This is also added in the throphy description on PS4.
I only saw this in chapter 2 so i have to start over.
Incase the used truncheon didn’t drop for anyone edwina cox now sells this.
She doesnt in my game :/
Hi all I am at the end of chapter 2 and Dorothy crane has gone missing I think I have made a mistake with the dialogue choices can anyone tell me if this has just voided the just one bite trophy? Thanks
Great guide but just an update, the Not Even Once trophy is only accessible on the two main difficulty settings and NOT in story mode (the easiest setting), which is probably why it may be popping for some and not the others
They patched it 🙁
It used to work on lowest difficulty (that’s how I did it) but now it doesn’t anymore. Apparently patch 1.07 changed the trophy requirement. I’ll update it in the guide shortly.
Killing Vampire Hunters & Skals affect the hostility of the district??!
How can I make a back up save whenever I go to application saved data management it forces me to quit the game ?
Nevermind I figure it out
I didn’t save Archer Woodbead, he’s dead. Can I still get the “Not ven once” trophy?
I didn’tsave Oswald Thatcher, he is dead now.so still will i get the trophy not even once?
Has anyone here gotten the third option for Aloysius? I chose that because I just couldn’t bring myself to reward such a jerk. Just asking because he’s the designated Pillar for that area, and I hope this has no adverse effects on the Not Even Once playthrough. I did back up my save just prior, and I think I’ll back up my save to the cloud at Chapter 6 (and disable to auto upload save files for that game) to see how it plays out.
For anyone coming back and playing this due to the recent PSPlus release:
I was able to purchase all of the upgrades that PP mentions during chapter 4, then I added to those skills to make them even stronger than what is suggested here. I never had issues getting XP on normal. Just explore every conversation option with characters and also make sure to read the files in your bag to unlock more hints and options with people. You can get a lot of XP just from talking to people and also doing the side investigations.
I have charmed dorothy ant then killed her as a skal but later on street statues goes hostile even though no one is missing or dead, what should I do now, can heal back the street to critical again ?
I can confirm that “not even once” did unlocked for me despite killing the man in the cemetery fight!
I’m playing on a digital copy (as this is this month’s free ps plus game) on version 1.08
I just completed the game with no NPCs showing dead and the Not Even Once trophy did not pop. Any ideas as to why?
So, playing the game through PS+ , Regarding the Not Even Once and the Just Take a Bite trophies: If someone plays a first walkthrough to get the Not Even Once trophy, instead of the manual save in a USB can’t you just play the game from the start and play through the first Chapter till the first encounter and just get the Just Take a Bite trophy?
Or a second thought here. Can’t we just play the game till the first encounter and get eg Just Take a Bite and then start a new game and play all the way through the end without killing any citizens to get the Not Even Once trophy?
This guide is quite old now but it’s worth noting that there was no difficulty option available in-game prior to Patch 1.07, so you cannot play on Story difficulty by blocking the patch download. Any version of the game prior to 1.07 was played on Normal difficulty, so you’re better off to just play the patched version on Normal difficulty rather than trying to play on 1.00 by blocking the patch download.
