Crappy 100% Achievement Guide
By Keshrent
I was bored, and - apparently - I decided that I would make myself less bored by creating a guide. Turns out I'm still bored, but now I have a guide. So, here you go. A crappy guide to 100% completing Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Note: This is spoilers for the entire game, so view at your own discretion.

Introduction
First, that picture for my guide (excluding the you-got-all-the-achievements award outline) was taken from Reddit (specifically r/OriAndTheBlindForest) and was made by u/Marmasghetti.
Here's the link to the original picture: https://reddit.com/r/OriAndTheBlindForest/comments/l9c1w2/commemorating_my_finishing_the_series_with_a/

Second, it WILL be crappy, as I am just not good at making a guide with all the "I am going to add unnecessary details" that I so often do. You might be able to find better methods to getting these yourself, but I'll try to help as much as I can. Also, there's already a guide that does exactly this, so how stupid of me.
Close Call
Fend off Howl.

Howl is the wolf of Inkwater Marsh, and your first boss. Simply flee until you get the chance to fight, then whack him in the face with that torch until he runs away. Then you get the achievement.
Take the Bug by the Horn
Defeat the Horn Beetle

You get to this boss after getting through the Spirit Gate which you needed Dash to get through. Simply smack the Hornbug's bum until it is defeated, then you will get the achievement.
Home Sweet Home
Reach the Wellspring Glades

Just get there. Simple as that. It will require you to meet Kwolok first, where he tells you to fix the Wellspring to get to Ku. You will reach Wellspring Glades by then.
Let the Waters Flow
Clear the Watermill

In the Wellspring, you just need to run away from the Foul Presence and some rushing water successfully.
Icy Escape
Escape the Avalanche

In Baur's Reach, you just need to run away from Shriek and an avalanche successfully.
Dark Triumph
Fend off Mora

The boss of Mouldwood Depths, who guards the Eyes of the Forest. Simply pummel Mora's face in until you win, then you get the achievement.
Guardian's Rest
Fend off Kwolok

The boss of Luma Pools, guardian of Inkwater Marsh, leader to the Moki, and your friend up until the Foul Presence from the Wellspring possesses him. Simply clobber your friend repeatedly until you win, then you get the achievement.
Quick Sand
Escape the Ruins

In the Windtorn Ruins, you just need to run away from the Sandworm with Seir successfully.
Laser Brain
Defeat the Willow Stone

The Willow Stone is the boss in Willow's End, and is required to defeat in order to get to the Spirit Willow. Avoid lasers and beat up the laser-rock-thing until it is defeated, then you get the achievement.
Stone Cold
Defeat Shriek

The rejected and bitter owl of Niwen, the reason for the Silent in Silent Woods, antagonist to Ori and Ku, and the final boss of the game. Simply destroy that ugly owl and send her tumbling into the Weeping Ridge defeated, then you get the achievement.
Destiny
Complete the Game

Do what it says. You will get it once the credits start rolling.
Hardcore Fan
Complete Hard Mode

Complete the game again, but on Hard difficulty.
Tools of the Trade
Unlock all Abilities

Find them in Ancestral Trees, and buy the rest from Orpher.
Mad Skills
Upgrade all Abilities

Buy everything from Orpher.
Fully Slotted
Upgrade all Shard Slots

Beat all Spirit Shrines successfully, and claim their rewards.
Shard Hunter
Unlock all Shards

Either finish the Hand to Hand quest, or use this map [ailothaen.fr] to find all of them. Then, you just need to go get them, and purchase the rest from Twillen. The Shard Secret is from Tokk's sidequest in the Windswept Wastes.
Shard Specialist
Upgrade all Shards

Purchase all the upgrades from Twillen.
Powerful
Max out Energy

Get all Energy Orbs. Either finish the Hand to Hand quest or use the map in Shard Hunter to find all of them.
Cartographer's Protégé
Buy all Maps from Lupo

Lupo is in almost every area, with a few exceptions. If you can't be bothered to explore around to find him, then utilize the map in Shard Hunter to find all of Lupo's locations to buy a map. You will need Spirit Light to get them, apart from Willow's End where he gives it for free.
Shrine Bright
Complete all Spirit Shrines

Usually four waves. Defeat all of them to complete the shrine. There are five shrines in total, so go find and complete them.
Lost and Found
Find all Collectibles

Finish the Hand to Hand quest or use the map in Shard Hunter to find all of them. Then, you go collect all of them. I advise getting Launch and the Shard Secret to make the process easier.
Mark of the Trader
Complete the Trade Sequence Quest

It's the Hand to Hand sidequest. Just follow this order:

  • A Moki in Kwolok's Hollow will give a Treasure Map, find Tokk in Wellspring Glades
  • Tokk will give you a Wanderer's Pouch, find the adventure Moki in the Wellspring
  • The adventure Moki will give you a bag of herbs, find Veral in the Wellspring Glades
  • Veral will give you Spicy Soup, find the cold Moki in Baur's Reach
  • The cold Moki will give you a Comfy Hat, find the I-want-a-hat Moki in Wellspring Glades
  • I-want-a-hat Moki will give you a lantern, find the silk Moki in Mouldwood Depths
  • The silk Moki will give you Mouldwood Silk, find Fisher-Moki in Luma Pools
  • Fisher-Moki will give you a Spyglass, find Motay in Wellspring Glades
  • Motay will give you a canteen, find the Grolek miner in The Windswept Wastes
  • The Grolek miner will give you a stone tablet, talk to Lupo about it and go to the Windtorn Ruins to place the tablet which will then reveal all collectibles in the game you haven't collected yet (you will have to escape from the Sandworm first).
Completionist
Complete every Side Quest

Just talk to everyone, as some of them will have a sidequest for you. Here's a list:

  • A Little Braver (from Mokk the Brave just where you defeated Howl)
  • Kwolok's Wisdom (from a Moki in Luma Pools)
  • Into the Burrows (from Tokk just before the entrance to Midnight Burrows)
  • The Silent Map (from Lupo at Wellspring Glades)
  • The Tree Keeper (from Kii in the Silent Woods)
  • Rebuliding the Glades (from Grom at Wellspring Glades)
  • Regrowing the Glades (from Tuley at Wellspring Glades)
  • Family Reunion (from the suitcase Moki at Wellspring Glades)
  • A Diamond in the Rough (from Tokk in the Windswept Wastes)
  • The Lost Compass (from Tokk in the Wellspring)
  • Hand to Hand (from a Moki in Kwolok's Hollow)
  • There's the Moki in Wellspring Glades who lost their keepsake (requires you have Flash, and 6-8 Grolek ore)
  • There are the rumors from the NPCs, which will lead you to Spirit Shrines and Spirit Trials
Fixer Upper
Complete all Wellspring Glades Projects

You will need all the Grolek ore to get all the projects completed. You may also need to talk to a few NPCs in the Wellspring Glades to get access to more projects.
Speed Demon
Complete all Spirit Trials

Do one until you get the Spirit Light rewards, then move on to the next. There's 8 in total.
Healthy
Max out Life

Just like Powerful, except you're collecting Life.
Untouchable
Defeat Mora Without Taking any Damage

I suggest doing this on Easy so that Mora takes less effort to defeat. For shards, you may want to equip, at least, the following to deal the most damage:
  • Lifeforce
  • Reckless
  • Overcharge
  • Finesse
  • Spirit Surge (More effective if you have lots of light)
Skills are of your choice, but anything that doesn't require you to come in close contact with her is my suggestion. You may want Ancestral Light from the Midnight Burrows and Kii's sidequest as well. It also requires you to be good at fighting Mora, as in remember all of her attacks and how to avoid them or do enough damage that she does not have time to do her attacks.
Timely Demise
Defeat Kwolok in Under 2 Minutes

Unless you are sporting this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5H0EJ1Tji0
Then cast Spike repeatedly. Use the aforementioned shards above to do more damage, and Easy difficulty to speed it up. You can still do it in Normal or Hard if you desire. If you really want to see how much time you take or you already defeated him, just access the Kwolok fight from Quick Access and fight him there.
Juggling Act
Juggle 3 or More Projectiles in the Air for Over 5 Seconds

To be honest, I don't know when I got this. I just got it passively while playing the game, and you might too. If I had to give some advise, try bashing with projectiles that are lobbed (have an upside down U shape) than straight-line projectiles, such as the Spitting Harrowers, corrupted Groleks, and the cauldrons in Baur's Reach. Might also get better chances in the Spirit Shrines with enemies that shoot projectiles, Shriek when she does certain attacks (the blue and white projectile ones), and Mora when she does her ranged attack.
Bring It On
Defeat 5 Enemies Without Touching the Ground

Try a combat shrine, and just use every ability you got to keep yourself afloat (Bash, Dash, Launch, Glide, etc...) while yeeting Spike or Spirit Smash-ing everything.
High and Dry
Avoid Touching any Corrupted Water

Don't touch the purple water. Be cautious, and just get to the point where you successfully ran away from the Foul Presence and you get the achievement. If you do touch the water, load a backup save and try again.
Damage Spike
Defeat 3 Enemies with a Single Spike

Get Exploding Spike, and Spike everything. The green mosquito bugs in Mouldwood Depths, Baur's Reach, and The Windswept Wastes, or the combat shrines might help you here.
Did I Do That?
Defeat 10 Enemies using Environmental Hazards

Spirit Smash, or Bash your enemies to spikes, water, lasers, or any related environment hazard.
Shardless
Beat the Game Without Equipping a Shard

I suggest doing it in conjunction with Lightless to quicken your achievement collecting. You can get Shards, just not equip them, so ignore Twillen and your Spirit Shard equiping section in this playthrough.
Lightless
Beat the Game Without Spending any Spirit Light

I suggest doing it in conjunction with Shardless to quicken your achievement collecting. You can collect, just not spend. So ignore Orpher, Lupo, and Twillen in this playthrough.
Look at the Time
Complete the Game in Under 4 Hours

I would pick Easy difficuly, get Spike from Orpher and Overcharge from Twillen, and sprint to every boss, wisp, and eventually Spirit Willow, yeeting Spike at every boss on the way, and picking up Life and Energy orbs if I remembered where they were at the moment. Of course, you can pick your own method, but make sure it's efficient enough to get you to the epilogue scene in <4 hours.
Immortal
Complete the Game without Dying

Just pick your difficulty, and beat the game again. I'd advise caution so you do not accidentally make a fatal mistake. If you need a guide on exactly how to do this then this could help you:
https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2081423964
Otherwise, its all on you on how you want to do this. Mind you if you do die, reload a backup save and try again.
