</>Common questions about Achievement Shield
What does Achievement Shield do in Risk of Rain 2?
Achievement Shield is a Risk of Rain 2 mod that pauses every achievement unlock while it's switched on. Normally the game hands out achievements the moment you hit a milestone, which becomes a problem when you're playing with god mode, free items, or other mods that trip those milestones by accident. Flip Achievement Shield on and the game stops registering new unlocks, so your list stays exactly where you left it. Turn it back off whenever you want achievements to count again. It's the safety net that lets you experiment as much as you want without permanently marking your save with something you meant to earn the honest way.
How does Achievement Shield keep my unlocks from popping?
While Achievement Shield is on, Risk of Rain 2 hands out none of its achievements no matter what you do in the run. You can turn on god mode, spawn a stack of items, or push into loops you'd normally never survive, and nothing new lands on your unlock list. The shield doesn't roll back anything you've already earned and it doesn't reset your stats. It just draws a clean line: anything that would have unlocked while the shield was up simply doesn't. The moment you switch it off, the game goes back to tracking milestones normally, so a legit run afterward still counts toward the achievements you haven't got yet.
Does Achievement Shield block achievements I've already unlocked?
No. Achievement Shield only stops new achievements from unlocking while it's on in Risk of Rain 2. Everything you've already earned stays earned, and the survivors, skills, and items those achievements unlocked stay available on your character select screen. The shield isn't a reset or a wipe, so there's no risk of losing progress by turning it on. Think of it as a freeze on future unlocks only. When you flip the shield off, your existing collection is exactly as it was, plus you're free to keep chasing whatever's still locked the normal way.
Is Achievement Shield just an on/off toggle?
Yes, Achievement Shield is a straightforward on/off toggle in Risk of Rain 2, and that's the whole point. There are no sliders or amounts to fiddle with because the job is simple: while it's on, achievements freeze; while it's off, they unlock normally. Flip the card on before a chaotic testing session, and flip it off when you're ready to earn things for real. Because it toggles instantly, you can leave it off for a serious run, then switch it on the moment you want to break out the fun mods without consequences. Nothing about it is permanent, and vanilla behaviour returns the second you turn it back off.
Why would I use Achievement Shield in Risk of Rain 2?
Achievement Shield is for anyone who wants to play with the fun stuff without polluting their achievement list in Risk of Rain 2. Testing a ridiculous loadout with free items and god mode? Filming a chaotic run for a video? Trying out other mods that might trip a milestone you were saving for a real playthrough? Turn the shield on first and none of it counts. It's especially handy if you care about earning your unlocks the honest way but still want to experiment freely. When you're done goofing around, flip it off and your next genuine run tracks achievements exactly like vanilla.
