Certain badges in the game are not connected to any particular level or require you go anyplace that you need to have a certain amount of experience to be safe in. In theory, you could get all these badges without ever leaving Breakout, the tutorial section (though I wouldn't reccommend it). All of these are Achievement badges, and all of them require the accumulation of a certain number of something. First let's talk about the damage badges. All you have to do is take damage. If you play long enough, you can't help but earn these:
There are also the cousins of the damage badges, the debt badges. Only slightly harder to earn than the damage badges, you actually have to die and pay off the resulting debt. You will get these faster than you expect:
Here are some badges that give you credit for being held (whcih often leads to contributions to the totals of the above 7 badges). Note that the holds are cumulative totals for any of the four states. For example, if you were caught in each of the four states for a total of 7.5 minutes each during your career, you would earn the first badge:
Let's look at a few more positive badges. You get credit for these for healing other players (healing yourself doesn't count):
You get these badges for earning influence. Note that the totals are cumulative (you don't need 1,000,000 points in the bank, spent points still count toward your total). This total is for defeating villians, helping citizens, and completing missions only! Selling enhancements and trading with other players doesn't count toward this total. Also, unfortunately, it seems as though the accumulation is only from when Issue #2 went live, any influence you earned prior to Issue #2 doesn't count.
Finally, if you are the Batman to someone else's Robin for long enough, you can earn these badges. The jury is still out on whether reverse sidekicking (exemplaring) counts toward these time values:
