Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora – From the Ashes DLC achievements and how to earn them

From the Ashes is the third major expansion for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, built around So'lek’s campaign against a renewed RDA threat in league with the Mangkwan. Alongside the story and new activities, it adds 11 new achievements (or trophies) worth 240 gamerscore on Xbox, with equivalent lists on PlayStation and PC.

The list skews toward story progress, a few small one-off moments, and a handful of collectibles and combat challenges. Nothing here requires multiplayer or deep grinding, but several entries are easy to miss if you rush through the narrative.

From the Ashes achievement list

On Xbox, all 11 are flagged as single-player achievements that can also be earned in cooperative play. A few are tagged as collectables, and only “In Case of Emergency, Break Glass” tracks a cumulative kill count.

How Out-of-Body Experience works (save import and Sarentu cameo)

Out-of-Body Experience is one of the more unusual entries because it ties the expansion back to your base-game character. It unlocks when your custom Sarentu from the main campaign appears alongside So'lek during a From the Ashes playthrough.

Step 1: Start a new From the Ashes run from the main menu and choose the option to import existing campaign save data when prompted. This connects the DLC progression to your established Sarentu profile.

Step 2: Play through the early missions of the expansion until the story brings So'lek into contact with your Sarentu. When your customized character shows up in the DLC narrative, the achievement triggers.

There is no indication that cosmetic changes are required beyond having a completed or active main campaign file with a custom Sarentu.

Stealth and ability achievements: First of Many and Path of Temrey

First of Many is a straightforward combat tutorial moment. You need to perform a single Stealth Finisher on an unaware enemy.

Step 1: During the opening sections of From the Ashes, wait for a sequence where you are taught or encouraged to sneak. Crouch and move behind an isolated RDA soldier or other hostile.

Step 2: When the prompt for a stealth takedown appears, execute it. The first successful Stealth Finisher in the DLC unlocks the achievement.

Path of Temrey is tied to unlocking Warrior Senses, an ability gained naturally while advancing the main storyline in the Alone questline that centers on So'lek. You do not need to complete optional activities for this; simply stay on the critical path until Warrior Senses are introduced and made available in your ability set.

In Case of Emergency, Break Glass: 50 AMP Suits with One Shot

In Case of Emergency, Break Glass is the main cumulative combat challenge in From the Ashes. It requires destroying 50 AMP Suits specifically using the One Shot skill.

Step 1: Unlock and equip the One Shot skill in your skill or ability menu once it becomes available in the DLC progression. Make sure it is active before heading into RDA encounters.

Step 2: Target AMP Suits in RDA camps, patrols, and scripted battles. When the opportunity appears, use One Shot on those mechs instead of standard weapons or other skills.

Step 3: Keep repeating this in multiple fights. The achievement tracks total AMP Suits killed with One Shot across the expansion, so you do not need to reach 50 in a single mission.

Because AMP Suits are not present in every encounter, it is more efficient to focus on larger RDA installations and operations that feature heavier resistance.

Eywa’s Blessing: Zeykoma Fruit collectible hunt

Eywa’s Blessing turns the Zeykoma Fruit into the key collectible of From the Ashes. You must find and harvest every Zeykoma Fruit in the DLC area.

The list references eight fruits in total, each of which also increases So'lek’s maximum health. They are spread around the new region rather than packed into a single zone, and they are not tied to a single questline.

Step 1: As you move through the DLC’s biomes, pay attention to traversal challenges, side paths, and elevated platforms that look designed around a reward. Zeykoma Fruits are usually placed where reaching them demands gliding, climbing, or careful navigation.

Step 2: Interact with each Zeykoma Fruit to collect it. There is no indication that any can be permanently missed, so they can be cleaned up after the main story as long as you retain access to the relevant areas.

The achievement unlocks once all eight fruits have been gathered.

Fashion-Forward: unlocking all From the Ashes gear sets

Fashion-Forward (listed as “Fashion Forward” on some platforms) tracks whether you have unlocked every gear set added in From the Ashes. These sets are linked to So'lek’s progression and are obtained from hidden caches rather than simple shop purchases.

Step 1: While exploring the DLC map, look for marked or visually distinct stashes that belong to So'lek. These function as gear caches and are placed off the critical path in many cases.

Step 2: Open every cache you can find and claim the contained items. Over time, these pieces fill out each gear set associated with the expansion.

Once all From the Ashes-specific gear sets have been registered to your inventory or collections, the achievement pops. There is no separate requirement to fully upgrade the pieces.

We See You: full From the Ashes completion

We See You is the catch-all completion achievement for the third expansion. It demands 100 percent completion of the DLC’s two headline structures:

• Save Your People – the core story-driven questline around So'lek and the Na’vi response to the invasion.
• Sabotage RDA Operations – a set of missions focused on dismantling RDA infrastructure and activities in the new region.

Step 1: Finish every chapter in the Save Your People storyline. This includes any mandatory branching missions that feed into the final confrontation.

Step 2: Clear all missions categorised under Sabotage RDA Operations. That generally means targeting every marked RDA site and completing all objectives tied to those markers.

Only when both structures read as fully complete in the in-game tracking does We See You unlock. Optional exploration objectives and minor side errands that are not part of these categories are not referenced by the description.

Small, missable moments: Just Like You Remember It and You Never Stood A Chance

Several achievements hinge on single moments that are easy to overlook if you simply play “correctly.”

Just Like You Remember It requires you to heal using a dapophet pod. One clear opportunity appears during the Ash on the Wind mission, which sends you back to the former Resistance HQ.

Step 1: Progress the story until Ash on the Wind takes you to the old Resistance base.

Step 2: Inside or near the facility, look for a dapophet pod and interact with it to gather healing. Any other dapophet pod in the DLC region can also be used if you miss this specific moment.

You Never Stood A Chance asks you to lose a race instead of winning it. During the Welcome Home mission, you race a Sarentu on the way to Hometree, mounted on your ikran.

Step 1: When the race begins, deliberately slow down or fly an inefficient route so that your opponent pulls ahead.

Step 2: Allow the Sarentu to cross the finish area first. The achievement is tied to losing the event, not to participation itself.

Both of these can be missed if you instinctively win every race or ignore environmental interactions, but they remain accessible as long as the related quests and locations can be revisited.

Unexpected Friends: locating the Fireback Mastodon in the Ravines

Unexpected Friends (titled “Expected Friends” in one listing but “Unexpected Friends” on the achievement feed) is an encounter-driven unlock. It revolves around a Fireback Mastodon hiding in the Ravines area.

Step 1: Travel to the Ravines region introduced in From the Ashes. This is a distinct zone marked on the DLC map.

Step 2: Search for signs of a concealed Mastodon den such as unusual tracks, environmental design leading into a side canyon, or a quest marker that references the creature. The Fireback Mastodon is described as “hiding,” so expect it to be tucked away rather than in plain sight.

Step 3: Once you find the Mastodon, interact using whatever calming or soothing mechanic is presented, rather than attacking it. Successfully soothing the creature and turning it into an ally unlocks the achievement.

This is framed as a friendly interaction rather than a combat challenge, so approaching carefully is important.

Return to Eywa: taking down the Mangkwan warband leaders

Return to Eywa sits firmly on the main narrative track. It only unlocks after you defeat all four named leaders of the Mangkwan warband:

• Rakx
• Zari
• Ka'sem
• Wukula

Step 1: Follow So'lek’s campaign missions until each of these leaders is introduced and given a dedicated confrontation. They are not optional bosses; the storyline steers directly into encounters with them.

Step 2: Complete all four fights. Once the last warband leader falls, Return to Eywa unlocks, and the main conflict that defines From the Ashes reaches its resolution.

Given how directly this ties into the main plot, the only way to miss it is to stop playing before the campaign is done.

How platform lists line up

The 11 achievements listed for From the Ashes on Xbox match the trophy set pushed to PlayStation consoles, where they collectively appear under the expansion banner. There the list has been described as 12 trophies, which likely reflects how grades and hidden trophies are structured on that platform rather than an entirely different set of requirements.

On PC, the same set of objectives appears in the in-game achievements menu and through platform overlays. Names sometimes differ slightly (“Fashion-Forward” versus “Fashion Forward”, “Unexpected Friends” versus “Expected Friends”), but the underlying tasks are consistent.

In practice, this achievement list nudges players to engage with most of what From the Ashes adds without demanding exhaustive map clearing. One completion run that pays attention to environmental details, side operations, and the occasional counterintuitive prompt — like throwing a race on purpose — is enough to bring the expansion to 100 percent.
