Blueside (and Redside) Accolade Cheat Sheet

Basically, I went through and organized what you need to get the four key accolades.
These badges are for the Atlas Medallion, Freedom Phalanx Reserve, Portal Jockey, and Task Force Commander Accolades (10% Endurance, 20% Health).

The Shrouded badge is one of those "seems to pop up on certain maps" badges, as Bluesiders can get it earlier than 46. I most recently got it from a timed mission from Sheridan in Brickstown. Redsiders can get it even earlier than that, IIRC.

Cool, sounds like a bug but I will look into that.

The text of the badge implies some specific locale, but the badge (Shrouded/Shady) is tied to the map "OUTDOOR_CITY_01B" (per the wiki). From memory, the Nightstar mission awards the badge on mission exit, but Blueside players can get the badge while on the map itself. I can't specifically recall if my redsiders have gotten the badge while in the map or upon exit, but redside the map appears in many low-level contacts... IIRC the lowest is circa level 10 (Dmitri Krylov's "Vahzilok Victims" mission) although I am positive there are other redside contacts that send red players to that same map at level ranges lower than when blue players start being sent to it.

Thanks, I was looking into that. It appears that it was supposed to be tied to the specific missions I listed, but due to bugs with the badges they ended up being linked to the maps themselves. As a result, while I have listed the official way to get those badges, there are other options.

 

I was looking at flashback missions that could reward this, and it seems the earliest option is redside:
10-14 The Vahzilok Conference 06-16

 

If anyone knows a good mission accessible through Ouro, please let me know.

Also, something that helps if you are soloing the TF badge is having the Shivan Shard... Actually works better than the Signature Summons...

Zepp, I appreciate this handy spreadsheet. I noticed the 1,000,000 points of damage taken badge (needed for Born in Battle) wasn't included in this list.

Good point. I am looking up some coordinates, but will update the post in a minute.

[edit] added, but there seem to be issues with the fire patch moving / not showing up. Still testing.

Yeah, the immortal badge post in the badge thread has a lot of details, but that's from over 3 years worth of methods, some of which have been patched or no longer work.

If you run the Hero's Hero arc via ourob you'll get shrouded from the 'save the hostages from the shadows' mission and all the av's bar anti matter in 1 go (assuming you remember to defeat Black Swan on the old BM farm map). Unlike the old ourob arc, if you run the new version of MJ arc from PI you appear to get the missions in a random order with no guarantee of the shrouded badge map with the NIghtstar fight or even Siege until you complete the arc save Posi and contact MJ again to get what seems to be a 2nd run through with some of the older maps in. The PI contact arc has the added irritant of finding Black Swan in the shadow shard mission (sometimes twice if you have to keep going after saving Posi) as she often doesn't appear in the central globe but could be anywhere on the foggy map and even a target macro doesn't always help locate her. My long rambling way of saying run the ourob arc and save yourself some grief and not have to re-enter ourob for shrouded too.

Revisiting this (old) post: I can confirm that Colleen Nelson awarded the Shrouded badge via the "Destroy the Rikti Virus" mission to my level 39 character. As an aside: I was rather peeved at my "friend and colleague" Steven Sheridan running out of missions for me without sending me to the map in question.

You can also get the badge from Harvey Maylor when he sends you to Madison Place to rescue six citizens from the Carnival of Shadows. Since his level range runs up to 50, you can just keep hitting him up until he gives you the mission.

This is legit AF.

 

For Freak Tanks (at 50) I just do the first mission of the Market Crash trial until I have the badge.

 

For Clockwork Gears (also at 50) I go to Echo Faultline.

 

For Dimensional Warder that's a pretty straightforward one (and fun to get, IMO). But for Anti-Matter with that badge I just join a Keye's (if I don't get lucky and do that 40-44 mission with someone).

 

Wait, did @Meknomancer say you can get an AM defeat on the old Hero's Hero arc somehow or am I understanding that wrong? Cause the Portal Jockey accolade is awesome, and that one defeat stops me from getting it on my characters.

Hero's hero arc gets you every AV except AM (and shrouded badge) , as long as you remember to hit Black Swan in the rescue prisoner mish (that completes if you free the hostage) and is miles easier than MJ arc once you run it a few times which i find often puts missions in random order and sticks av's in random locations in the shadow shard map. MJ arc i find i have to run through the entire thing and then have to phone back and chat to her again to keep going in order to get Siege/Nightstar's shrouded map which for some reason aren't always included in the initial story arc.

 

I have Instant Army last mish saved on 2nd account for AM/hop on Keyes when its going.

Thanks for the clarification.  I really appreciate it. I'm a weird duck, I like AV hunting, so the MJ arc is fun to me.
