Highguard: Every Trophy And Achievement Requirement (PS5 & Xbox)

Highguard ties almost all of its trophies and achievements to Raid Mode, your Warden roles, and a handful of specific combat feats. There are 33 trophies on PlayStation (including a Platinum) and 32 achievements on Xbox worth 1,000 Gamerscore.

Quick answer: Finish the tutorial for Rite of Passage, play and win Raid Mode matches across every Warden role for most Bronze-level rewards, then chase specific match conditions like fast wins, Anchor Stone victories, and Overtime wipes for the toughest Gold trophies and high-value achievements.

Highguard trophy and achievement overview


On PS5, Highguard uses the standard four-tier trophy structure:

  • 1 Platinum – awarded for collecting every other trophy.
  • 5 Gold – demanding wins under strict conditions.
  • 7 Silver – focused on ability usage, items, and weapon kills.
  • 20 Bronze – mostly progression, role usage, and basic mechanics.

On Xbox Series X|S, there are 32 achievements covering the same in-game objectives (minus the Platinum), for a total of 1,000 Gamerscore.

Efficient trophy and achievement planning


Prioritize progression and role-based goals

The fastest way to clear a large portion of the list is to focus on simple progression and role diversity early:

  • Run Raid Mode repeatedly to cover Trial by Combat, Battle-Hardened, and wins for A True Warden of Highguard.
  • Rotate through Assault, Defensive, Recon, Support, and Destruction Wardens to knock out all five role-based trophies and achievements.
  • Use every match to chase small objectives like revives, generator interactions, and mount eliminations.

Bundle single-match challenges

Several requirements must happen within one match, which makes them good candidates to combine:

  • While hunting for Plunderer, you can also aim to equip 3 Legendary items for Legendary Armaments and buy 10 Rare+ items for Pocket Full of Vesper.
  • Match-long combat objectives such as Heavy "Cavalry", Blade vs. Bullet, and Shock and Awe pair naturally with aggressive, fast-paced wins.
  • Wall destruction for Lord of Destruction can be combined with Suppressive Fire if you secure the BigRig LMG.

Handling the hardest win conditions

The Gold trophies and high-value achievements hinge on strict win conditions:

  • One Shot, One Kill – coordinate around the Anchor Stone win condition and avoid alternative victory paths.
  • Overwhelming Force and Protocol Three – push for clean, fast games with strong team coordination.
  • Perfectly Balanced – play to prevent Overtime entirely by maintaining a solid lead.
  • Our Last Stand – intentionally capitalize on Overtime situations where you are the final survivor.

With a consistent group and a focus on stacking compatible objectives, Highguard’s full list is demanding but manageable, and you can work on most long-term goals organically while playing Raid Mode.
