Crypt Of The NecroDancer Easy “A Beatless Beatdown”, “So Hardcore!”, and “You Don’t Miss A Beat, Do You?” trophies
Play in Local Co-Op mode with another person. Have the other person play as Bard. All enemies will move when either you or the other person move, which makes completing the game easier. Be careful when moving, as over-movement can kill. You will progress as long as either player survives each level, effectively doubling your chances. Dead players will respawn with two hearts on each level. Note: This technique can also be used with the same player controlling both characters, but movements will be difficult due to keeping the screen visible and keeping both of them safe.
Easy “Flawless Victory!” trophy
Play in Local Co-Op mode with another person. Have the other person play as Bard. All enemies will move when either you or the other person move, which makes completing the game easier. Be careful when moving, as over-movement can kill. Make sure only the player controlling Bard collects all items and uses any shrines. You will progress as long as either player survives each level, effectively doubling your chances. Dead players will respawn with two hearts on each level. Note: This technique can also be used with the same player controlling both characters, but movements will be difficult due to keeping the screen visible and keeping both of them safe.
Easy “I Love Gooooooold!” trophy
Play in Local Co-Op mode with another person. Have one person play as Bard and the other as Cadence. All enemies will move when either you or the other person move. Be careful when moving, as over-movement can kill. You will only lose your coin multiplier by being hit or digging a tile that you cannot dig, which makes completing the game easier. Dead players will respawn with two hearts on each level. Note: This technique can also be used with the same player controlling both characters, but movements will be difficult due to keeping the screen visible and keeping both of them safe. During your progress, do not purchase too much, but get the following items:
Blood Shovel: Allows you to dig four shop or shrine wall tiles per half heart. Use this four times with Bard after killing all enemies, then move the other player to the exit stairs. Bard will respawn with two hearts on the next level (full starting health). Make sure to dig at corners for maximum value (40 coins).
Bombs: Can be used to bomb shop or shrine wall tiles. Bomb the corners for 50 gold per bomb.
Gold Ring: Results in slightly more gold, but also picks up gold from the terrain you cannot walk on in Zone 3.
Ring Of War: Enemies become harder, but an additional enemy per room results in more gold. Two players are required to equip this and the Gold Ring.
Shrine Of Space: Adds an extra room to each level, resulting in more enemies and thus more gold.
Easy “Merchanticide” trophy
The shopkeeper normally cannot be damaged. Find a red dragon in Zone 2 and take it to the shopkeeper to make the shopkeeper afraid of you. After the shopkeeper backs into a corner, either manipulate the red dragon to kill it, or explode some bombs there. Note: This will kill the shopkeeper on all floors and occasionally cause its ghost to haunt you.
Play in Local Co-Op mode with another person. Have the other person play as Bard. All enemies will move when either you or the other person move, which allows you to kill the merchant easier. Be careful when moving, as over-movement can kill. The shopkeeper teleports to the shop after each hit. If you wait until you have three bombs, you can carefully manipulate his movement to ensure he is within a bomb’s radius when it detonates. Alternately, have a player move until the merchant is next to the other player and can be hit. Repeat the process until he is dead. Killing the merchant rewards you with a Crown Of Greed, which doubles all gold collected, but drains one gold on every beat. Note: This technique can also be used with the same player controlling both characters, but movements will be difficult due to keeping the screen visible and keeping both of them safe.
Play as Eli and find the item shop. Place a bomb at maximum range from the entrance, then kick it towards the shopkeeper. Walk one tile away after the kick, place another bomb, then kick it again. Walk away again, place a bomb, and keep jumping away instead of kicking it. If done correctly, all three bombs will have hit the shopkeeper. Note: You may need to create more space at the entrance before starting the bombing.
Easy “Mostly Harmless” trophy
Play as the Dove. Find a shop with a Fear scroll in Zone 1. Note: You may need to restart until this happens. Purchase the scroll, then find a green slime and confuse it by “attacking” it with Dove’s flower. While standing next to the confused green slime, use the Fear scroll. This will kill the Dove.
Easy “Tachycardia” trophy
Play in Local Co-Op mode with another person. Have the other person play as Bard. All enemies will move when either you or the other person move, which makes the double speed obsolete. Be careful when moving, as over-movement can kill. You will progress as long as either player survives each level, effectively doubling your chances. Dead players will respawn with two hearts on each level. Note: This technique can also be used with the same player controlling both characters, but movements will be difficult due to keeping the screen visible and keeping both of them safe.
Play with the “Custom Music” option enabled and select a slow song. You can also drop any custom music to half speed, where the song sounds the same but the beats are halved.
Easy “Two Can Tango!” trophy
Select Co-Op mode and play solo. Choose two Bard characters. If one of them dies, he will return in the next level. Focus on buffing only one of them.
Easy “Vow Down!” trophy
Play in Local Co-Op mode with another person. Have the other person play as Bard. All enemies will move when either you or the other person move, and Bard can pick up all the gold, which makes completing the game easier. Be careful when moving, as over-movement can kill. You will progress as long as either player survives each level, effectively doubling your chances. Dead players will respawn with two hearts on each level. Note: This technique can also be used with the same player controlling both characters, but movements will be difficult due to keeping the screen visible and keeping both of them safe.
