Combat & Enemies
Requiem's combat trophies reward you for actually engaging with its systems — parries, hatchet finishers, the Requiem weapon's crowd-clearing blast, and a roster of memorable bosses and special enemies. Most are one-off and unmissable, earned naturally as you fight through the campaign. A few (the seedlings, the bosses) are tied to specific encounters, so we've flagged those. The cumulative Seasoned Pro (300 kills) takes care of itself across your runs.
