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.

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.
