Notes |
| Isolator | Villian | 1 | 2 | Outbreak | To get this badge, you must do the tutorial, which is the only place in the game you will find the needed villians, the Contaminated. The easiest way to finish this badge is to run through the entire tutorial (finishing the door mission). After completing the door mission, DO NOT return to Coyote (if you do, you will be dropped out of Outbreak). Instead, go back to the hazard areas and start taking down the Contaminated. You need 100 of them. There is no counter for this badge, so either keep track of your arrests or just keep going until you get the badge. |

| Bird Watcher | Exploration | 1 | 50 | Galaxy City

Around the back, there is a fire escape. Go up to the fourth level, and carefully walk along the railing to the edge. From there, you can jump and catch the corner of the ledge (which will be slightly below you). |
| Blue Shield | Exploration | 1 | 50 | Galaxy City
(-1169, 39, -2467) | Use the same building you used to get the Bird Watcher badge, except this time climb all the way up to the first roof.

| Gravedigger | Villian | 5 | 50 | n/a | Defeat 100 Embalmed Cadavers / Embalmed Abominations to get this badge. You have to take them down quick, because they explode after a few seconds, and you don't get credit for the defeat. You'll find a fair number of these on the Vahzilok missions, but if you need to hunt them, a couple of suggestions are the Sewer Network, King's Row (especially around King's Garment Works), and Faultline (directly north of the entrance). |

| Gearsmasher | Villian | 7 | 50 | n/a | You must defeat 200 clockwork gears to earn this badge.

Good hunting grounds for clockwork bosses is Perez Park, Skyway City, or Faultline (south of the entrance). |
| Unleasher | Villian | 7 | 50 | Perez Park | To get this badge, you must have delivered the most amount of damage, or be on the team that delivers the most damage to Kraken when he goes down. Kraken can be found in Everett Lake in Perez Park. |

(-1279, -35, 935) | Head for the river in Bettis Hills (your best bet is to come at it from the east, if you come from the west, you will get hopelessly lost in the maze that is Bettis Hills). On the overhead map there is a break in the river path (though this doesn't seem to translate to the world). About halfway in this break, you will find the plaque on the eastern bank of the river. |
Student
(Part 4 of 5) | History | 7 | 50 | Perez Park
(-1523, 0, 3960) | This plaque is north and slightly west of the Skyway City entrance. Unfortunately, it's on the other side of the large wall, the only only gate is way over by the Atlas Park entrance. However, with a bit of skillful jumping on buildings, you can cut your run time a bit. |
| Avatar | Exploration | 7 | 50 | Perez Park
(-1539, -32, 3176) | About 100 yards southeast of the Everett Lake marker is a fallen avatar statue. |
| Territorial | Exploration | 7 | 50 | Perez Park

| Positron's Ally | Task Force | 10 | 16 | Positron
(Steel Canyon) | To get this badge, you need to do Positron's Task Force, which involves Clockwork, Circle of Thorns, and Vahzilok. Going over the details of doing a Task Force is well beyond the scope of this guide, but get at least a 3 hero team (4-5 is a good number) and expect to spend about 6-8 hours (in one session) completing the job (and once you start a Task Force, you cannot add new people, so make sure you have a reliable group). Everyone on the team at the end of the Task Force gets a badge. |
| Knight Errant | Villian | 10 | 50 | King's Row | To get this badge, you must prevent the Clockwork from finishing Paladin. Once they complete him, you've lost the badge and have to find a new spawn. The trick is to keep the construction health low while taking out his defenders and constructors. You'll need help. It takes about 10 minutes of solid fighting, but eventually the clocks will give up and you will get your badge. |

A little bit of building hopping is required. |
| Bright Star | Exploration | 10 | 50 | Steel Canyon
(-2987, -36, 1819) | This is on top of a building. The only way to get there without use of a travel power is via the train tracks. If you follow the tracks from the building southeast, you will eventually come to two trucks parked underneath them. Get on top of the second truck, and jump east to an overhang. From the overhang, you can jump onto the track. Carefully follow the track around until you are as close to the building as you can get. From there, you can jump down to the roof. |

| Transcendant | Task Force | 12 | 50 | The Hollows | Start this trial by talking to David Wincott (you should be sent there by your contacts when you hit level 5). Going through the entire Trial is beyond the scope of this guide, but just keep doing the Hollows missions (there are a total of four contacts there) and you'll eventually get the badge (for the final mission, you need a team of 8 people). The reason I've put this at level 12 is that, while you can start the Trial at level 5, you can't finish it until at least level 12 (the final mission is in the Tunnels, which are level restricted to 12 or higher). |

| Faultless Mystic | Exploration | 14 | 50 | Faultline
(-844, -407, -715) | As you can tell from the second location coordinate, this one is way down at the bottom of a crevice. You're only about 175 yards from the Precipice map marker, but a lot of it is straight down. Getting down to the badge is easy, getting back up is the hard part. Follow the crevice, making your way up (you'll probably have to fight, run, or sneak your way past a lot of Circle of Thorns), and you'll eventually make it back up to street level. |

(-903, 17, -1982) | This plaque is 325 yards east of the Downfall map marker. It is on the far eastern side of the map, so the easiest way to get it is to start at the entrance, go east to the wall, and follow it south. The plaque faces south, so you'll have to look behind you to find it. |

(3417, 42, 3038) | From the Talos Island entrance, head directly east. Shortly, you will run into a wall. There are stairs either slightly north or slightly south.

| Devilfish | Villian | 22 | 50 | Independence Port | To earn Devilfish, you need to defeat Lusca, an octopus that hangs around in Independence Port (usually to the south near the quays). Getting credit for the badge is the standard sort of deal for monsters, you must deliver some set amount of damage to the creature before it dies (and any damage done by your teammates counts toward this total). Taking down Lusca is a little unusual in that it is a nine step process. You must defeat one tentacle at a time, at which point Lusca will submerge and resurface a short distance away. Once all eight tentacles are down, you can attack the head. |
