Fists of Steel
Deal a 99999-damage blow in battle.
An easy way to achieve this is to use the Hellblade job with another job that has high HP. Be sure to equip the "HP/MP Converter" ability from a level 15 Red Mage and the "Surpassing Power" ability from a level 12 Hellblade. In battle, use the skill "Ultima Sword" from a level 13 Hellblade and if you have max HP, you should be able to hit 99999 without crits.

Perform a combo of 16 hits or more using the 'Attack' command.
Hit-count is determined by level and Speed.
You can also buff your attacker with the skills "Quick" or "Quickga" from an Oracle to help reach a higher hit-count.


Barrage of Black and Blue
Perform a 32-hit combo using the 'Attack' command.
This will require the ability "Frenetic Fighting" from a level 14 Phantom to be equipped.
Buff your attacker with the skill "Quickga" from a level 13 Oracle to help reach the 32-hits.

There is unfortunately not a way to track how many monsters you have captured besides manually counting how many monsters you have on hand via Beastmaster job commands. I just tried to catch one of every monster that I came across and was able to get all three achievements.
Be sure to use Mercy Strike and Mercy Smash skills to make your capturing easier.

This achievement requires all information to be filled out about the monsters, not just obtaining their log in your guide. This means you have to find out all of their weaknesses, strengths, dropped items and stealable items.
EDIT: I have been told that this one actually does not require all information to be filled out about each monster. It could be that you just need to defeat every monster in the monster guide. So if you're stuck on this, make sure that you've killed the Secret Boss as well as killed each type of Wiki Wikis before they run away from you.
