Why cant I satisfy the Diamond Equipment challenge in Age of Empires 2?
Posted On: June 30, 2023

I've tried to complete this challenge multiple times, but it never seems to complete. I have tried playing multiple single player skirmishes without cheats and completed all 15 blacksmith upgrades but have never been awarded this achievement.


I had no trouble completing the previous achievement, which was to kill some boars. But this one eludes me.


I have included an example game with settings as an example. I tried both with and without resources set to "infinite". I use "full tech tree" to ensure that no blacksmith upgrades are missing.


Question from user Zhro at stackexchange.


Answer:

I figured it out. Despite there being 6 challenges, the ability to complete them has been staggered. They are "locked", I think for each one to be unlocked once a day. This was confusing because the "next challenge" unlock timer is only visible from the main menu and not the challenges list itself.
