Hit Me Baby

Use wide-sweeping combos like Plume of Prometheus into large crowds, or bounce enemies continuously during early swarm encounters.
Mutton for Punishment [Missable]
Slit 50 Satyr throats
Missable! Weaken Satyrs with light attacks until the Circle grab icon appears, then complete the execution QTE. Because Satyr spawns are limited throughout the story, make sure to execute every one you encounter.

Parry 50 attacks
Press L1 just before an incoming attack lands to trigger the Sun Shield parry. This can be farmed quickly against a solitary Persian archer or basic infantry soldier.
Stoner

After beating the story, go to Treasures from the main menu, select the movie 'Atlas and Persephone', and let it play out three times.
Piece of Cake
Beat the Challenge of the Gods
Accessible under Treasures after finishing the campaign. Fully charged Gauntlet of Zeus strikes and aerial grapples provide high invulnerability frames during the tougher combat waves.
Heavy Hitter
Execute a 1000-hit combo
During the Tartarus sequence where you strike the chained Titan Hyperion, chain fast light attacks continuously; the target will not retaliate, allowing you to easily run the counter past 1,000.
Cosplayer
Play the game with an unlocked costume
Upon finishing your first playthrough, start a new game from the main menu and select any unlocked costume such as Spud of War or McKratos.
It's Over Already?
Beat the game
Unlocked automatically through story progression.
Getting Your Money's Worth
Beat the game (Hard Mode)
Prioritize upgrading the Gauntlet of Zeus to maximum level as soon as you find it; its charged heavy attacks stagger tough enemies and chunk boss health bars.
