Pick a goal before entering a tale
Check the wording of your achievement before choosing a tale, difficulty and archetype.
| Goal | What to verify |
|---|---|
| One boss | Encounter and difficulty on its boss achievement. |
| One tale | The tale name and requested tier on the clear record. |
| Puzzles | The named Puzzlemaster criterion for that tale. |
| Story discoveries | The exact objective. Stories Shared and Stories to Share are separate records. |
| Final Confrontation | Difficulty and whether the objective requires one archetype or all three. |
Check the counter before closing the attempt
A clear, an opened puzzle chest and a story discovery are separate objectives. Check which entry updated. If it remains incomplete, compare the exact name, difficulty and class with the source record.
Check the reward in Quillgrave
Use Nib’s chest for the run result. Consult the Traveling Raven reference for the achievement rewards listed in the PTR ledger.
Write down the run and its target before entering
Put the tale, difficulty and character class on one line. On the next line, name the actual objective you want and record its starting count. For a boss, this can be the name and the difficulty version of the achievement. For a story collection, write the tale’s own count as well as the aggregate you are pursuing. For a puzzle, write the named Puzzlemaster criterion and mark each completed room while the landmarks are fresh. If you are attempting The Comprehensive Final Confrontation, give each archetype its own line at the requested tier.
Before you choose a portal, compare the in-run result with the tracked record. A boss achievement may advance while the tale’s puzzle or story line remains incomplete. Write down the specific condition that is still missing so your next attempt can target it. If nothing moved, confirm that you are looking at the achievement edition for the selected difficulty and the correct character class. The reward-linked achievement directory is useful when a short search brings up a similarly named entry.

Record the result in the place it belongs
At Quillgrave, compare the run result with the reward you are following. Nib’s chest is the reference point for the run payout described in the demo. A separate achievement record may name the Traveling Raven and a reward for your main game collection. If an objective completed but you still need to claim or inspect its listed reward, keep that as a separate follow-up in your notes. On a future attempt, this helps you tell whether you need another clear or simply need to check a reward already tied to a completed record.
For example, if you cleared Greywake’s Expedition while working toward the Hearthstone, check its clear line in The Tale Complete. If you were after the book toy, inspect the Greywake story line in Stories Shared. The Hearthstone record lists five lines, the four tales and the Final Confrontation. The toy record lists the four listening collections. The individual PTR records flag both achievements as account-wide. Their visible criteria tell you which remaining route to schedule, even when the last run advanced both.
