By zazziik

I would rather recommend going for these achievements once you are done with the main game and have all the upgrades from the sermons up to tier 6 (this isn't necessary, but having higher stats will definitely make it faster and less annoying)

However if you don't care that much then these should be enough:

Curse of the Occultist this is going to be a must have, because you are going to need one of the curses.



Fervour of the Righteous II



Might of the Devout V a lower level of this upgrade will be alright too, but won't be as effective



Additionally:

Godly Weapons I am adding it as an additional upgrade, because of the fact that it can be quite a pain in the ass to get on a crusade.



Needed fleece:

Fleece of the Berserker will be your go to in this guide so don't forget to equip it. Sure, you will only have half a heart for the whole crusade but if you get hit, you won't get the achievements anyway so its necessary to get that 10x weapon damage buff.

You might also need the ability to re-roll a weapon/curse for 50 gold in case you get some really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ stuff. I don't remember where to get it, but assuming that you are in your mid/late-game, you probably have it already.
crusade (pre-boss fight)
This is the annoying part, because you have to hope to get some good items at the beginning of the crusade AND not die since you have only half a heart.

Your go-to curse should be Divine Guardian as it grants you a 2 seconds of invincibility which will help a lot during the boss fight.


This is the moment when item re-roll will come in handy. If you don't get Divine Guardian, you can try again and if you still don't get it then sucks to be you, because the method I am showing is completely based off of invincibility.

However, you can still hope to get Shamura Skull Relic through your crusade which might work even better (although it can be quite rare)



When it comes to weapons, you don't have to be that picky. I would recommend any axe (preferably a Godly Axe) or any other weapon that you can throw in order to deal a ton of damage.

Hammers suck on it's own, but when it comes to a fight where you have only a few seconds to kill the boss then I would re-roll it immediately, because it is way too slow.

If you encounter Clauneck on your way to the statue, get a card . If you have enough gold; buy an additional one.

The cards you will be looking for are any cards that make you deal more damage to the enemies.
boss fights
Once you see the statue of the Bishop you are about to fight, destroy it and get inside of the portal. This will teleport you to them, even when they have been already defeated by you. (I am assuming that you already killed them, if no then you have to get to them in a more tedious way)


Now you should be teleported to the boss room. If you are fighting Leshy then you shouldn't have a problem with anything as I believe he is the easiest one to kill without getting hit (i literally did it on accident so lolll)

The strategy isn't too complicated. The execution may vary on who you are fighting as their difficulty is significantly different and some of them spawn a lot of smaller enemies which can interrupt you and be generally annoying(Heket, I am talking ab u rn))

The execution:

If you have any relic that deals damage to the enemies, use it immediately. (the only exception is when fighting Shamura ,because they are going to jump at you as soon as the fight begins. In their case, roll to the other side of the room and then use it.)


As soon as you begin the fight, start spamming with your Divine Guardian every two seconds. (However, as I said remember to roll to the other side of the room if fighting Shamura. For some reason, you can still die when they jump at you even if you were fast about activating the curse)
Then just start spamming at them with your weapon, hoping to kill them. This takes a few seconds if your stats are high enough. However if they are still not dead, and you have no fervour for the invincibility; start throwing your weapon at them, carefully dodging all their attacks.

If you don't have the Divine Guardian, but you do have any other form of invincibility it's going to be basically the same. The only difference is that instead of throwing your weapon at them, you can throw curses (and you can't use fervour for the invincibility)

This is pretty much it. good luck
