• Complete Timed Strike Training – can be started at The Belfry, in the training exercise area
• Stop 10 Premeditated Crimes – these are the red crimes, collect clues to unlock them on the map at next night’s patrol, or scan for them/interrogate informants during current night
• Defeat 3 Minibosses – you should automatically encounter them while preventing 10 Premeditated Crimes

After doing all 3 Challenges, go back to The Belfry (headquarters) and you will see some objects are marked with your character’s icon. Interact with all of them around The Belfry. Lastly, you will have to interact with the mask of Batman, next to the big door through which you exit The Belfry. After this you get a short cutscene and your reach full Knighthood.

If you already reached Level 30 and spent all skill points, you can get more skill points in New Game+ which raises the level cap to Level 40 and gives you enough points to buy all remaining skills. Or you could simply switch to another character and unlock their Knighthood, then buy the skills with them.

• Guard Breaker – Defeat 5 Freaks Bulldozers: The Freaks faction is found across all of North Gotham, they are the big guys with shields.
• Ferocious – Defeat 15 Feral Talons: The Feral faction is found all across North Gotham and Tricorner Island, but is also part of the premeditated crimes “Owl’s Nest”. They are the quick “monster-like” enemies that require you to hold to stun them with a shot.
• In Plain Sight – Defeat 5 League Shadows Assassin: You meet these enemies as part of the story. Then they can be found in Tricorner Island district. They are the quick Assassins with Katanas that disappear and reappear to ambush you in combat.
• Shadowed Perk – Clear 2 Owl’s Nests: The Owl’s Nests are a type of premeditated crime, available after doing Main Case 02. Best way is to prevent a few crimes to collect clues, then go back to Belfry to advance to the next night. Check if it spawned any of these and repeat.

These challenges become available gradually through story progress, after you’ve met the respective factions and enemy types. For this trophy you only need to do all Abilities Challenges with ONE character! You don’t need to do for all of them.

You can check how many Momentum Abilities you have unlocked and how many are remaining under “Abilities Menu” > “Momentum Abilities”. The ones you unlocked also show up in the bottom right corner of the screen.

You will get this naturally over time while leveling up and completing Momentum Challenges and reaching Knighthood. Don’t worry about this, on your way to platinum it will come automatically from general progression.

You can find them at randomly spawning crimes in districts where the Mob is present. The gangs change their districts each night, but you can scroll over the map to see their icon: .

You will likely get this while doing 250 crimes for Expert Crime Fighter. If you don’t have it after that, go to the districts where the gang is present and do all crimes there. Then return to the Belfry to respawn them in different districts and repeat.

You can find them at randomly spawning crimes in districts where the Regulators are present. The gangs change their districts each night, but you can scroll over the map to see their icon: .

You can find them at randomly spawning crimes in districts where the Freaks are present. The gangs change their districts each night, but you can scroll over the map to see their icon: . Freaks are usually found at Robinson Park in the north of the map but can also spawn in other districts (randomly changes each night).

You can find them at randomly spawning crimes in districts where the League of Shadows is present. The gangs change their districts each night, but you can scroll over the map to see their icon: . They are first encountered during Main Case 04 and will start spawning in the open world later.

After defeating the first Man-Bat in Main Case 07, the story wants you to defeat 3 more (mandatory to advance the story). This means from the story you automatically kill 5 Man-Bats, that leaves only 5 more for the trophy.

After finishing the story they can randomly respawn on the rooftops where they were during Main Case 08:

1 – Elliot Center (Financial District):

2 – Gotham City General Hospital (West End):

3 – WayneTech (Southside):

They will bere if you see a dark fog / smoke coming from the rooftops of these buildings. However, this is random and they don’t always spawn. Just keep checking back there until one spawns.

Alternatively, a reliable method is to play through New Game+ again. You will kill another 5 during the NG+ playthrough, which brings you to 10 total and you’ll get the trophy that way. But because the Man-Bats are at the very end of the game (Case 07 & 08) you’d have to replay the entire story, which takes about 3 hours when skipping cutscenes.

You can find them at randomly spawning crimes in districts where the Court of Owls is present. They are first encountered in Main Case 03, after that they can be found in the open world. The gangs change their districts each night, but you can scroll over the map to see their icon: .

You will likely get this while doing 250 crimes for  Expert Crime Fighter. If you don’t have it after that, go to the districts where the gang is present and do all crimes there. Then return to the Belfry to respawn them in different districts and repeat.

You deal Elemental Damage by equipping weapons that have one such effect. In the Loadout section they will have an elemental icon to the right of their Power Rating, whereas weapons without an effect have no elemental icon.

The best element for this is Electricity because it builds up very fast and can stun many enemies close together when it’s triggered. Equip a ranged weapon with 2 Mod Slots and with Electric Effect, if you don’t have one go to the Crafting Table at Belfry to check if you can make one. New craftables become available with each level-up. Now equip 2 Mods that increase “Elemental Effect Buildup”. You equip those under Gear Menu > Mods (or select your weapon and press on it). Make sure the Mods you choose say “Elemental Effect Buildup”. You don’t want ones that increase Critical Damage as that wouldn’t be helpful for this trophy. Ranged weapons work best due to the fast hitrate. Red Hood is a good character for it because his pistols shoot quickly, but you can use anyone else too.

If you don’t have a ranged weapon with 2 Mod Slots and Electric Element, you can try with another Element or with 1 Mod Slot. But it will take a bit longer this way. Weapons with multiple Mod Slots are definitely best because the Mods make a huge difference. Without Mods the elemental effects rarely trigger. At higher levels the Mods are stronger and improve the Elemental Buildup more than at lower levels. Meaning, this gets easier at higher levels. So just equip an Elemental weapon with Elemental Mods and keep playing, then the trophy will come naturally after a while.

For this trophy it counts the “small crimes” with white icons as well as the “premeditated crimes” with red icons, and also the orange quest-related crimes. The ones with white icons are much faster to do.

You can find plenty of crimes each night. When there are no more crimes, return to Belfry to make new ones spawn. It’s best to keep this trophy for last. You will have to prevent plenty of crimes as part of main- and side quests and challenges. After you have all other trophies this should take another 2-3 hours to farm (if you’d try to farm it at the start of the game it would take 4-5h). When you put the game on ‘Very Easy’ difficulty you can finish 1 of the white crimes per minute including travel to the next crime.

Note: When returning to Belfry, in the results screen it only counts the premeditated crimes you completed that night, BUT for this trophy the white-icon crimes are confirmed to count too. So don’t be fooled by those result screen stats, they don’t properly track the “white” crimes you complete but the trophy tracking works fine and counts them correctly. The trophy pops immediately when you did the 250th crime, no need to return to Belfry for it to pop.

It doesn’t work if you only collect 1 clue and then only do the 1 crime that gets marked the next night. You have to do all available red crimes that spawn on the map in 1 night. They change their locations each night, it’s random. But collecting the clues dropped by enemies in previous night will automatically mark them.

You don’t need to worry about this trophy at all. On your way to platinum this will come automatically! You get a lot of Challenges automatically from the Story and Villain Cases, they are actually mandatory main objectives but the game classifies these main objectives as ‘challenges’. Then the rest will come automatically from getting the Collectibles, doing the Knighthood Challenges and Basic Training challenges – all of which you need for other trophies. And to unlock all Basic Training Challenges you will have to get all Momentum Abilities as well.

You can always check the Challenge requirements in the Challenge Menu. They are short tasks, most of which you do naturally without even knowing about them. 50 sounds like a lot but there are vastly more challenges in the game.

They are constantly dropped by enemies and from rewards at higher difficulty crimes. This will likely be one of your last few trophies, but after having farmed 250 total crimes you should have a lot of unused mods you can use for fusion.

After reaching Level 30, go to the Crafting Station at The Belfry (headquarters). You should have at least 1 Legendary Craftable available in each category when you’re Level 30 (if for some reason you don’t, reach Level 40 in New Game+ first and you’ll unlock even more craftables).

To craft legendary items you need legendary resources. To get these, defeat “Gotham’s Most Wanted”. They spawn randomly during High Difficulty Premeditated Crimes (red crimes). You can see them in the Challenges Menu > Gotham’s Most Wanted. They are random spawns. During some High Difficulty Crimes they will spawn, but it’s rare. When scrolling over a red crime on the map it shows the difficulty (easy, normal, high, very high). The ones that aren’t Very High never spawn these special enemies.

Alternatively, you sometimes get legendary crafting materials from doing the Contacts Challenges (Challenge Menu > Contacts  > scroll over the available ones to check rewards if it shows a legendary/yellow resource icon), but this is random and not guaranteed. The Contacts Challenges unlock by talking to the people marked on the map, they become available gradually over the story.
