Rubinite achievements: all 38 Steam achievements with global unlock rates, the challenge unlocks, rarest ones, and a 100 percent completion strategy.
Rubinite Achievements — Full List & How to Unlock All 38
Rubinite ships with 38 Steam achievements, confirmed by the store listing and Steam's own community stats page. The list sorts cleanly into four groups: boss kills, no-hit/restricted challenge runs, collection goals, and story secrets — and the global unlock rates tell you exactly where the difficulty actually is. This guide lists every achievement with its unlock condition (where Steam publishes one) and a completion strategy that doesn't waste your runs.
Here's what you'll learn:
- The full 38-achievement list, sorted by global unlock rate
- The boss-kill and campaign milestones
- The challenge achievements (True Hunter, Talismans? Nah., Out-Of-Body, Bomb Disposal Expert)
- The rarest unlocks — and which ones are still undocumented
- A 100% strategy built around Meditation rematches

How Many Achievements Does Rubinite Have?
38, tracked through Steam Achievements, with Steam Cloud and Steam Leaderboards also supported. Unlock rates below are the global percentages from Steam's public stats page (owner-based, as of August 2026) — they shift as more players finish the game, but the relative difficulty order is stable: the earlier a name sits in the story, the higher its rate.
Per Steam's achievement stats for Rubinite, the most-earned achievement is Awaken from a Nightmare (~97% of owners) and the rarest is Talisman Connoisseur (~18%).

Steam doesn't publish hint text for most of these. Where the community has a plausible trigger (Plague It Cool, You Dare Use My Own Weapons…), we say so and mark it unverified — don't plan a run around a guess.
The Rarest Achievements
Talisman Connoisseur (every Talisman) is the bottom of the unlock curve — it's a collection grind, not a skill check, which is why it's so rare: it demands finishing Wichiwi's whole shop, including damaged-talisman unlocks. You Dare Use My Own Weapons Against Me, Ruby? and Illuminate the Night are nearly as rare, with undocumented triggers — likely tied to specific late-game or true-route moments. RUBINITE (clear on Normal) sits at ~24% because it requires the true-route final clear, not just any ending.
Challenge Achievements: How They Work
The restricted runs are the fun ones, and the game hands you the perfect tool: Meditation. After your first Mana Source kill, Roy unlocks boss rematches at the Monastery — so you never have to sacrifice a progression clear for a challenge run.
- True Hunter — no damage taken. Best done in a rematch with a fully-upgraded build, not cold on the first clear.
- Talismans? Nah. — strip the pouch. Combine it with True Hunter on The Beast: remove every Talisman and complete one no-damage rematch to knock out both.
- Out-Of-Body — kill possessed knights fast enough that the Ghost can't leave its host via self-harm. The Ghost fight guide is in the boss order guide.
- Bomb Disposal Expert — the Gravekeeper's poison blobs must never detonate: pop them with light attacks or never let them linger.
- True Difficulty — earned naturally by completing the true route.
A clear attempt with three goals fails. A drill with one goal teaches. Do the story first with your safest loadout, then use Meditation rematches with a single challenge condition each.
A 100% Strategy
- Play the story through to the true ending first. Boss kills, campaign milestones, and most story secrets unlock naturally along the normal + true routes.
- Use Meditation rematches for challenge runs once your Focus and Perfect Dodge timing are consistent — every restricted achievement is far rarer than its matching plain boss kill.
- Talk to Wichiwi after every fight to keep Talisman Connoisseur progressing alongside normal build progress (damaged talismans expand his shop).
- Do the collection cleanup post-campaign: all memories (Someone Else's Past), all skills (Fully Fledged — plan your Blood Dust spends), all chests (Finders keepers?), every Talisman.
- Keep the gameplay difficulty on Normal — the RUBINITE achievement requires the real final clear on Normal difficulty, and "True Difficulty" is the post-ending route name, not the menu setting.
There's no open world and no daily grind — 100% in Rubinite means playing the game well and finishing every system, then coming back through Meditation for the clean runs.
FAQ
How many achievements does Rubinite have?
38, tracked through Steam (Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud and Steam Leaderboards supported).
What is the rarest Rubinite achievement?
Talisman Connoisseur — obtaining every Talisman — has the lowest global unlock rate (~18% of owners as of August 2026).
How do I get True Hunter in Rubinite?
Defeat any boss without taking damage. Easiest in a Meditation rematch with a strong build; you can combine it with Talismans? Nah. on The Beast.
How do I get the true ending achievement?
Beat Alcina for "Maybe the End," reload the same save, choose to wake up in the White Space, then clear the True Difficulty route — that unlocks Escape the Illusion, True Difficulty, Kingdom Reclaimed, and the true-route boss kills.
Are Rubinite achievements hard?
The boss kills are just progression. The restricted runs (True Hunter, Out-Of-Body, Bomb Disposal Expert) are the skill gates, and the collection achievements (Talisman Connoisseur, Fully Fledged, Finders keepers?) are the time gates. Meditation rematches keep both manageable.
