Do or Do Not¡­ - 40G: Complete "Left with No Choice" with premium content.

Credit goes to Johnnybravo

 

I got this when reached level 34 but was green for me, so i suppose you can get it around level 30. Its a quest in Argos, repeatable and doable in coop, you must defeat all enemy on the map. Dont know if you start on the same map always, i tried it once and the islands were differently positioned, but the point is to not be in the middle because its harder that way(you'll get attacked from multiple ways). My tip is to load the mission until you start on the south island or north one, i did mine from the south position as seen on the map.

http://i.imgur.com/at6g6.jpg

(red dots-my fireships)

red paint - enemy position

 

My strategy was to rapidly build a port and then create several fireships 5-8, and position them around the island blocking the enemy from reaching you; this way you will destroy his transports way before they eject on your island. Doing this, will allow you to peacefully build/upgrade your army to the max (although there are kinda few resources on your island - building a marketplace will solve this in a way)

 

Of course you could start building fortresses to try defending yourself while building your army but the enemy will eventually overwhelm you, plus the map position its hard to defend because you dont know from each side will the enemy come, and the island resources are few, especially gold.

 

Its a hard mission, this is the first one i encounter till my 34 level when the enemy built range siege weapons (im talking about normal missions, not siege ones), and if you dont be careful for they ballista (majority are elite) they will evaporate you.

The Cook is in the Kitchen - 40G: Complete "Breaking Eggs to Make an Omelet" with premium content.

 

Credit goes to Johnnybravo

The quest is the last one in the challenge series in Argos when you must defend the town center against enemy siege for 30 minutes and you get it around levels 28-32. The challenge is not hard and pretty easy in coop. The map helps alot, since you are kinda surrounded by natural walls and the enemy can come only trough small pathways where you can kill them easy.

 

You start in the center of the map with 3 pathways from where your enemy can come W-west N-north and E-east(this assuming you're doing in coop, if not, they will come trough S-south as well which is a bigger pathway harder to defend; so do it in coop, since your partner will build there his defences and its much easier this way).

 

You start with 2000 of each resources and with 5 villagers. Right away move 2 villagers to the W and 2 to the E and build fences, and the last one to the N and do the same and keep there. Age lo level 2 to be able to build towers and as soon as you age, start building them. In the mean time make villagers, till you hit the max limit of 30 (n need to build houses), and send some to the stone mine, some to the trees and some to help you build towers and repair them and the fences. Build more and more towers and some fortresses, and also a market is quite helpable since you will have at certain times more of a resources that you need than other resources. You could also build an archery to train archers, since the enemy will come sometimes with battering rams and its better to destroy them quick.

 

Overall its not hard like the other challenges in the game, much easier in coop and its the 4th challenge in the series (first you will have to defend the town in 15 mins, then 20, 25 and the last one, this, in 30 mins, so by time you do this last one, you'll get familiar with the map, strategic points and so on)

You Complete Me - 20G: Complete "You Complete Me" with premium content.

 

Argos quest. It is the last quest in the "co-op only" questline. Here is a tactic and that is to build walls and leave a small gap for the men etc to come in and quickly build two fortresses either side of the gap then spam a army between the fortresses as quick as poss.

 

If you are stuck check this thread has good tactics;

Practice makes perfect :)

 

Premium Greek Achievements

 

These Age of Empires Online Premium Egyptian achievements can only be gained by using a premium Greek civilization.

Green Thumb - 15G: Complete "It's The Final Farm Down" with premium Greek content.

 

This comes in the form of a challenge given bu Helice Merchant you will start of with a challenge to build 10 farms in 10 minutes every time you complete one a minute is taken of for the next challenge until you get to "Its the final farm down" which you have to build 10 farms in 5 minutes (these challenges appear at around level 8 - 9)

 

A good tip is also look in your advisory hall and see what cards you have that will make it that little bit faster

City Defender - 15G: Complete "Defend Mycenae!" with premium Greek content.

 

Credit To JohnnyBravo

 

This quest appears around level 18-20. You must defend the palace in the city ; the mission lasts 20 minutes. During these minutes enemies will constantly attack you from west, north and east. You will start with plenty of resources, villagers and units, with every building built.

 

The first wave is the hardest , since they got ballistas, which do a whole lot of damage to your buildings/units so destroy them ASAP. Gather some villagers and build towers near the front gate, and as soon as the ballista appear rush with your units to destroy them. If you pass this with minimal damage, the rest of the mission is a piece of cake.

 

After more than 10 mins passed, another set of ballistas will come so be prepared. Unfortunately, the units controlled by the AI (supposed to help you) kinda sucks and get killed very fast.

 

My solution for the mission was to spam towers near the front gate section, and spam somatophylax veterans from those 2 forttresses (+some archers) and divide them in 2 parts, one for the siege in east and the other in west. The enemy's units arent very tough, except for the ballistas.

 

Conqueror - 15G: Complete "Horsing Around" with premium Greek content.

 

Credit To JohnnyBravo

 

You get this quest around level 18-20, when you use the trojan horse. Actually, this mission is kinda funny, since all your units will die sacrificing for the victory. The mission is short too, no more than 4-5 minutes.

 

You start with 40 units inside the big Trojan horse (which is inside the enemy's citadel). Objectives are to destroy a building southeast from your horse location, and after that you must get Achilles to the main keep entrance.

 

This mission is pretty easy. Unload all your units from the horse and march rapidly to the building you need to destroy and make it to peaces (no need to worry about losing units) .As soon as the building gets destroyed, you gain control over the army from the beach. Dont waste any moment, and collect everyone from the beach (including villagers) and rush towards the place where your army from the horse still battles.

 

Your second objective is to take Achilles to the keep entrance, so dont force him into the battle, just run him to the entrance and voila mission complete.

 

There are enemy units that patrols the area, so best is to unload the horse units when they are not around. Same for when you rush Achilles, let almost all enemy units engage your forces, before rush him to the keep; although he has 2000 hp, he still can die easy. If you get unlucky, and he dies, just try again this method.

The Preacher - 15G: Complete "Spread the Word" with premium Greek content.

Credit To JohnnyBravo

You get this quest between levels 15-20, depending on your way/path of solving quests. You get it from the oracle in your capital, and you need to convert 12 villagers with your priests. There is no time limit, take your time.

 

The way i did, was to create 2-3 priests and moved them near an enemy resource place (EG Storehouse) and stay there, converting the villagers.

DLC: Defense of Crete Booster Pack

 

 

Warned You About the Sun 25G - Build the Hubris of Icarus in your Capital City.

 

Can be done Solo Or Co-Op

 

For this achievement you need to build the Hubris of Icarus in your Capital City. Therefore you need to go to the area of Crete. Here you can battle of waves of enemies in the quest 'The Defense of Crete' with the blueprint and resources as a reward.

 

Change the settings so that Number Of Attackers = 20 Waves leave on easy the first time and choose the blueprint as the reward

 

Now you need to replay this quest again and again (you can up the difficulty now for higher rewards) to collect the resources needed for this temple. This can go really slow. Luckily in the progress you also collect Crete Points which you can spend at awesome and exclusive items.

Bullish Sentiment 25G - Build the Shrine of the Bound Minotaur in your Capital City.

 

Can be done Solo Or Co-Op

 

For this achievement you need to build the Shrine of the Bound Minotaur in your Capital City. Therefore you need to go to the area of Crete. Here you can battle of waves of enemies in the quest 'The Defense of Crete' with the blueprint and resources as a reward.

 

Change the settings so that Number Of Attackers = 30 Waves leave on easy the first time and choose the blueprint as the reward

 

Now you need to replay this quest again and again (you can up the difficulty now for higher rewards) to collect the resources needed for this temple. This can go really slow. Luckily in the progress you also collect Crete Points which you can spend at awesome and exclusive items.

Temple Fit for a King 25G - Build the Temple of Minos in your Capital City.

Gifts of Minos 35G - Build all three Crete Wonders in your Capital City.

Awarded to you once all three wonders have been built. To break it down, you need to play a minimum of 63 games to net this, or around 50 hours spent.

 

Minoan Defense 40G - Complete "The Elite Meet in Crete".

 

This becomes available when you reach lvl 35 it is a variant of Horde with 40 waves, just go to Crete and speak with King Minos to obtain the quest.

 

I would advise doing this in Co-op as it is extremely hard and would be near impossible to do solo.

 

Upon completion you receive 150,000 XP, 20 Minoan Materials or any 1 of the 3 wonders as well as 4 random chests along with some empire points (this is repeatable every 6 days)

 

All i can say is good luck!!

Hey mate I have edited the "Sphere of Influence" tips due to some more research into it. Let me know if you need this post deleted. Keep up the good work!

For the achievement "Sphere of Influence", a lot of people seem a bit confused about requirements. I think you should add these points to the guide just to clarify.

 

 

  • You do not need to be different civs. My friend and I are both Greek and he got the quest and achievement from my city. (Have done this twice now.)

  • You do not need to be on the same server. I am on the Abydos server and got the quest and achievement from someone on the Marathon server.

EDIT: Ok it seems this is only partially true.

 

 

Whilst I am on the Abydos server and was able to get the quest/achievement from someone on the Marathon server, I could not visit someone on the Alexandria server at all and vice versa.

 

It could be either a bug or they have some servers linked and others not (which can happen).

If it is the former than it will just be a wait and see thing but if it is the latter someone will have to go through and check which servers are linked and which are not.

 

Also, if it is the latter, that could change as more people come on to the game and the servers fill up. It may just be safer to do the quest with people on the same server.

 

It is not hard to create a city on another realm to help people get the achievement, which I am more than willing to do.

 

  • If you go to your friends city and do the quest, they won't be able to go to your city and see your ambassador for 12 hours, and vice versa. (this may require more confirmation). The reson I say this is because it is a repeatable quest and when My friend went to my city he got the quest and achievement, but when I went to his city right after the ambassador was not there. After 12 Hours later his ambassador was in his city and I was able to get the quest.

EDIT: This turned out to be false, could just be a bug. I found that if you go to someones city and there is no ambassador there, you can sometimes make him spawn by leaving the friends city and coming back.

For the "I'm Special" achievement (beating any quest on elite) I found it easiest to do on the "Kill the Docks" quest from your Capital port.

 

Simply use Heroic Aid and rush the enemy base. You'll steamroll right through them and finish the quest in a minute or two.

The quest Vizier's doom gives the large step pyramid for the achievement Pyramid power.

 

Also there is a little typo in your guide. for the achievement Lord of the nile you need to complete Fall of nubia.

I completed that quest but dont really know at what level you get it since im behind on quests (the quest was already white instead of green) it was a very easy quest. you only had to defeat all enemies (no timer involved)

 

Edit: For the achievement The son's of Destiny you need to complete the quest Vizier's doom. I got it around level 22.

You start in the center of the map with 3 pathways from where your enemy can come W-west N-north and E-east(this assuming you're doing in coop, if not, they will come trough S-south as well which is a bigger pathway harder to defend; so do it in coop, since yur partner will build there his defences and its much easier this way).

 

You start with 2000 of each resources and with 5 villagers. Right away move 2 villagers to the W and 2 to the E and build fences, and the last one to the N and do the same and keep there. Age lo level 2 to be able to build towers and as soon as you age, start building them. In the mean time make villagers, till you hit the max limit of 30 (n need to build houses), and send some to the stone mine, some to the trees and some to help you build towers and repiar them and the fences. Build more and more towers and some fortresses, and also a market is quite helpable since you will have at certain times more of a resources that you need than other resources. You could also build an archery to train archers, since the enemy will come sometimes with battering rams and its better to destroy them quick.

 

Overall its not hard like the other challenges in the game, much easier in coop and its the 4th challenge in the series (first you will have to defend the town in 15 mins, then 20, 25 and the last one, this, in 30 mins, so by time you do this last one, you'll get familiar with the map, strategic points and so on)

The quest Vizier's doom gives the large step pyramid for the achievement Pyramid power.

 

Also there is a little typo in your guide. for the achievement Lord of the nile you need to complete Fall of nubia.

I completed that quest but dont really know at what level you get it since im behind on quests (the quest was already white instead of green) it was a very easy quest. you only had to defeat all enemies (no timer involved)

 

Edit: For the achievement The son's of Destiny you need to complete the quest Vizier's doom. I got it around level 22.

Just got this The Cook is in the Kitchen - 40G: Complete "Breaking Eggs to Make an Omelet" with premium content

 

The quest is the last one in the challenge series in Argos when you must defend the town center against enemy siege for 30 minutes and you get it around levels 28-32. The challenge is not hard and pretty easy in coop. The map helps alot, since you are kinda surrounded by natural walls and the enemy can come only trough small pathways where you can kill them easy.

Credit to achti (thx again)

 

You need to complete a challenge questline that ends with 'The ultimate camel gauntlet test'. You need to get all 5 camels at the finish line in 2 min.

General Tips

 

Telling your camels to travel a longer distance will make them travel in single file, making it easier to sneak them past enemies

 

As soon as you disembark from the transport send it to the pick up point

 

Don't wait for the transport, go and find it

The Son's Destiny - 15G: Complete "Vizier¡¯s Doom" with premium Egyptian content.

 

you had 2 achievements double (1 with the wrong discription) and you forgot to add explenation to one. Should be like this. I would also edit the font abit when the guide is finished. its all abit too hard to read atm. (i added an example of how to make it more readable if you dont mind. it would also be nice if you could add the achievement icons before the achievement name)

Do or Do Not¡­ - 40G: Complete "Left with No Choice" with premium content.

 

I got this when reached level 34 but was green for me, so i suppose you can get it around level 30. Its a quest in Argos, repeatable and doable in coop, you must defeat all enemy on the map. Dont know if you start on the same map always, i tried it once and the islands were differently positioned, but the point is to not be in the middle because its harder that way(you'll get attacked from multiple ways). My tip is to load the mission until you start on the south island or north one, i did mine from the south position as seen on the map.

 

http://i.imgur.com/at6g6.jpg

(red dots-my fireships)

red paint - enemy position

 

My strategy was to rapidly build a port and then create several fireships 5-8, and position them around the island blocking the enemy from reaching you; this way you will destroy his transports way before they eject on your island. Doing this, will allow you to peacefully build/upgrade your army to the max (although there are kinda few resources on your island - building a marketplace will solve this in a way)

 

Ofcourse you could start building fortresses to try defending yourself while building your army but the enemy will eventually overwhelm you, plus the map position its hard to defend because you dont know from each side will the enemy come, and the island resources are few, especially gold.

 

Its a hard mission, this is the first one i encounter till my 34 level when the enemy built range siege weapons (im talking about normal missions, not siege ones), and if you dont be careful for they ballista(majority are elite) they will evaporate you :). Thats why, i think my strategy with the fireships its better but everyone is free to play it their way.
