these badges as possible.
This guide is current as of Issue 7: Destiny Manifest.

Handsome/Beautiful
------------------
Description: "Eros can bring out the beauty in any being."
How to earn: Complete the Valentine's Day missions during the 2006 Valentine's
Day event.
Notes: Currently unobtainable. Badge name changes depending on your
gender.
Toothbreaker
------------
Description: "You have defeated Snaptooth 5 times, and are truly a
Toothbreaker."
How to earn: Defeat Snaptooth 5 times during the 2006 Valentine's Day event.
Notes: Only the elite boss form counts, I think.
Venomous
--------
Description: "You've taken down so many Toxic Tarantulas people call you
Venomous."
How to earn: Defeat 200 Toxic Tarantulas.
Notes: They only spawn in PvP zones, and they're bosses. It takes a
while. Siren's Call spawns the most at once, I believe.
Cold Warrior
------------
Description: "You have defeated 100 of the living snow creatures who plagued
Paragon City."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Snow Beasts.
Notes: Only obtainable during the 2004 and 2005 Winter events.

his cold wrath to Paragon City."
How to earn: Defeat a Winter Lord.
Notes: Only available at the 2004 Winter event.
Knight Errant
-------------
Description: "You have helped defeat the Clockwork Paladin, a diabolical
invention of the Clockwork King."
How to earn: Stop the construction of the Paladin in King's Row.
Notes: He appears at certain locations as a large scaffolding with a
partially built clockwork inside. Tons of clockwork spawn and
attack it to heal it. If you can defeat it before it gets to full
health, you get the badge. Otherwise it summons the Clockwork
Paladin.
Devil Fish
----------
Description: "You have helped stop the giant octopus Lusca from terrorizing
Independance Port."
How to earn: Defeat Lusca.
Notes: Lusca is a giant octopus who spawns in Independence Port. To get
the badge, defeat the head. The tentacles will normally have to
come down first, though. Anyone in an area around Lusca gets the
badge when she's defeated. This may be a bug.
Volcanic
--------
Description: "You have cracked the Igneous bosses, earning you the right to
call yourself Volcanic."
How to earn: Defeate 100 Igneous bosses.
Notes: Look around in Grendel's Gulch in the Hollows for large flaming
areas. Get near them to make them aggro. Only the large lava guys
count for the badge.
Visionary
---------
Description: "You have been successful in a campaign to blind the Overseers in
the Shadow Shard."
How to earn: Kill 100 Overseers.
Notes: They're the giant eyeballs in the Shadow Shard. They have a large
bonus to accuracy, so defense oriented sets should be careful.

-----------
Description: "You have held back the forced of the afterlife in their eternal
struggle to break through to the mortal world."
How to earn: Defeat 50 of the ghosts that spawn then the Ghost Ship reaches
land in Talos Island.
Note: They spawn in large groups. Mostly around level 20 or so.
Troll Task Force Member
-----------------------
Description: "You have logged enough time in the Hollows to be named an
honorary member of Lt. Wincott's Troll Task Force."
How to earn: Spend 5 hours in the Hollows(?)
Notes: Appears to be bugged. Not sure if it's the description or the
badge itself. Spending 5 hours in the Tunnels under the Hollows
works.
Firebase Zulu Security Detail
-----------------------------
Description: "You have logged enough time in the Shadow Shard to be made a part
of Firebase Zulu's security detail."
How to earn: Spend 5 hours in Firebase Zulu.
Notes: I don't think any other zones in the Shadow Shard count for this.
Hallow Spirit
-------------
Description: "You have helped defeat a manifestation of Eochai, king of the Fir
Bolg."
How to earn: Defeat Eochai during the 2004 Halloween event.
Notes: Eochai spawned in zones at random during Halloween '04. Note: The
Eochai in Croatoa does NOT give this badge.
Hunter
------
Description: "You have defeated 20 of the nefarious Vampires who rose from
their graves on Halloween."
How to earn: Defeat 20 vampires.
Notes: 2004 Halloween event. Council Vampyri don't count for this badge.
Buster
------
Description: "You have defeated 20 ghosts, spirits who have not rested since
their original death."
How to earn: Defeat 20 ghosts.
Notes: 2004 Halloween event. Other ghosts don't count.
Shifter

through the disease of lycanthropy."

Notes: 2004 Halloween event. Council Warwolves don't count.

Description: "You have defeated 50 zombies, the walking flesh of the recently
dead."
How to earn: Defeat 50 zombies during the 2004 Halloween event.
Notes: 2004 Halloween event. Banished Pantheon don't count.

-------
Description: "You have defeated 75 witches, sorcerous crones who use dark
magics."

Notes: 2004 Halloween event. Cabal don't count.

-------
Description: "You have earned 10 badges. You are officially a tourist in
Paragon City."
How to earn: Earn 10 badges.
Notes: Exploration badges let you get this easilly.
Collector
---------
Description: "You have collected 25 badges."
How to earn: Earn 25 badges.
Notes: Again, just getting all the exploration badges gets this.
Explorer
--------
Description: "Your diligence has earned you 50 badges."
How to earn: Earn 50 badges.
Notes: Just getting all the exploration badges will get you this one as
well.
Pathfinder
----------
Description: "Your eye for exploration and achievement is recognized. You have
earned 100 badges."
How to earn: Earn 100 badges.
Notes: There's only 80 some odd exploration badges, so you'll have to
reach out a little for this one. All the exploration badges, plus
the history badges, plus a few defeat badges should do the trick.
Tough
-----
Description: "You have endured one hundred thousand points of damage and are
still dauntless in your pursuit of justice."
How to earn: Take over 100,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: Doesn't have to be all at once, of course. Most tanks will have
this at around level 10.
Indestructible
--------------
Description: "Over the course of your career, you have taken five hundred
thousand points of damage."
How to earn: Take over 500,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: This one takes a bit longer. A good way to get this is to kill all
but one enemy in a mission, preferably one who can hold, and then
letting him wail on you overnight. Different archetypes can
survive different amounts of this. For example, a tank might have
5 people hitting him while he uses Rest.
Adamant
-------
Description: "You have endured one million points of damage."
How to earn: Take over 1,000,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: You'll probably have gotten this at around level 30 in the normal
course of the game, but you can always farm it as suggested above.
Unbreakable
-----------
Description: "You are truly unbreakable. You have survived ten million points
of damage."
How to earn: Take over 10,000,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: If you want it that bad, you could find a good AV team and get
creamed a bunch. Most 40+ AVs can hit for upwards of 1,500.
The Unwavering
--------------
Description: "Though you have been defeated, you continue to fight for Paragon
City."
How to earn: Work off 100,000 debt.
Notes: Exemplaring is obviously the most effective way to get this badge.
The Unyielding
--------------
Description: "Continued defeat means nothing to you."
How to earn: Work off 400,000 debt.
Notes: Since debt maxes at 5 deaths, and is halved in missions, if you're
purposely trying to get the badge I recomend running out into a
group of monsters higher level then you and dying 5 times in a
row. Then exemplar down and work it off.
The Unbroken Spirit
-------------------
Description: "Your spirit cannont be shattered. Though you have often been
defeated, you continue to fight the good fight."
How to earn: Work off 800,000 debt.
Notes: Task Forces are good for this, as they automatically exemplar you,
and the end bonus is large. The Ernesto Hess TF is what I would
reccomend.
Medic
-----
Description: "You have helped your fellow heroes by healing them two hundred
fifty thousand hit points."
How to earn: Heal other people for 250,000 points.
Notes: You have to heal damage. Overheals don't count. Damage ATs will
want to pick up Aid Other from the Medicine pool for this one.
Surgeon
-------
Description: "You have helped your fellow heroes by healing them one million
hit points."
How to earn: Heal other people for 1,000,000 points.
Notes: ...And slot it 3 heal/3 recharge. Or have a buddy go into a
mission, aggro one mob, and go AFK overnight, while you stand next
to him with the heal on auto.
Doctor
------
Description: "You have helped your fellow heroes by healing them two million
hit points."
How to earn: Heal other people for 2,000,000 points.
Notes: I doubt if it's even possible for a non-defender or controller to
get this.
Restrained
----------
Description: "You have been under the influence of restraining powers such as
sleeps and holds for an inordinate amount of time."
How to earn: Stay slept or held for 30 minutes total.
Notes: Just find a Malta mission, park yourself next to a sapper, and go
AFK. But make sure he's the only guy around.
Entangled
---------
Description: "You continue to show aptitude at missing all the action."
How to earn: Be slept or held for two hours total.
Notes: Again, just go AFK overnight with a sapper. It works on your
damage badge, too.
Imprisoned
----------
Description: "Your skill at being held immobile and not being able to do
anything is unmatched."
How to earn: Be held or slept for 10 hours total.
Notes: This one takes quite a while. I still recomend staying with a
sapper, or anyone who can hold you, but not kill you on their own.
Celebrity
---------
Description: "Talk shows are calling you all the time."
How to earn: Earn 1,000,000 influence.
Notes: Influence from selling doesn't count, nor does influence from
trades. Has to be from arresting mobs/completing missions.
Sensation
---------
Description: "Dinner at the White House is passe for you now."
How to earn: Earn 10,000,000 influence.
Notes: Exemping and doing taskforces below your level with no debt is a
great way to get this.
Superstar
---------
Description: "The citizens of Paragon City have begun a petition to make a
statue in your name."
How to earn: Earn 20,000,000 influence.
Notes: Again, doing task forces seems like the best way to get this. AVs
also give quite a chunk of change.
Protector of Innocents
----------------------
Description: "Statesman has awarded you this badge for achieving Security Level
10."
How to earn: Level up to level 10.
Notes: Also unlocks the Nebula Elite Buckshot gladiator. Awarded once you
actually train to 10th.
Keeper of Peace

Description: "Statesman has awarded you this badge for achieving Security Level
20."
How to earn: Level up to level 20.

Notes: Unlocks the Fire Thorn Caster gladiator.

Description: "Statesman has awarded you this badge for achieving Security Level
40."
How to earn: Level up to level 40.
Notes: No gladiator here.
Hero of the City
----------------
Description: "Statesman has awarded you this badge for achieving Security Level
50."
How to earn: Level up to level 50.
Notes: No gladiator here, either.
Advisor
-------
Description: "You have been awarded this badge for your time spent tutoring
others."
How to earn: Sidekick for 8 total hours.
Notes: Doesn't have to be all at once.
Guide
-----
Description: "Your continued mentoring has earned you this badge."
How to earn: Sidekick for 40 total hours.
Notes: Or with the same sidekick.
Paragon
-------
Description: "Your time spent as a mentor has earned you the right to call
yourself paragon."
How to earn: Sidekick for 80 total hours.
Notes: I suggest trying to get this along with the held badge. Have your
SK tucked away somewhere safe near you while you get held
repeatedly. Just leave it on overnight a few times, and bam, you
have both badges.
Banisher
--------
Description: "You are a banisher of evil spirits. The Banished Pantehon fears
your very name."
How to earn: Defeat 200 Banished Pantheon mask spirits.
Notes: The best place to do this is the southeast corner of Talos Island
at night. They spawn at least 1 per group there.
Tank Buster
-----------
Description: "You have proved your worth on the streets, and the Freakshow have
learned to fear your name."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Freakshow tanks.
Notes: I'd say Terra Volta might be the best place to try for this. Or
the Sister Psyche TF.
Bonecrusher
-----------
Description: "You're all about knocking heads and beating Skulls."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Bone Daddies.
Notes: The western side of Perez Park is the best place to try this.
Large groups of Skulls with 1-2 Bone Daddies per.
Dimensional Warder
------------------
Description: "You have made yourself legend by defeating the Praetorians, an
evil version of the Freedom Phalanx from an alternate dimension."
How to earn: Defeat all of the Praetorian archvillains.
Notes: To come later, sorry.
Finder
------
Description: "You are beginning to uncover the mystery that is the Lost."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Lost bosses.
Notes: Terra Volta, underneath the bridges is a good place to find them.
Gearsmasher
-----------
Description: "You have learned that the smallest gear can power the greatest
menace, and have taken steps to stop the Clockwork menace."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Clockwork gears.
Notes: Near the entrance to Skyway in Faultline is a good place to find
the Princes who spawn the gears when they're defeated. Anywhere in
Boomtown is also good.
Gravedigger
-----------
Description: "You have learned to put the Embalmed Cadavers in their place-- 6
feet under the ground."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Embalmed Cadavers.
Notes: The exploding Vahzilok zombies. Faultline is a good place to get
these guys, as is Perez Park.
Hellspawned
-----------
Description: "You've whupped those Hellions but good."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Damned.
Notes: The east side of Perez Park is full of them.
Illusionist
-----------
Description: "You have learned enough from fighting the Illusionists of the
Carnival of Shadows to know the real from the fake."
How to earn: Defeat 200 Carnival Illusions.
Notes: That is, the phantasms that the Carnie Master Illusionists summon.
Get a team of 8 and start doing Carnie contacts.
Infiltrator
-----------
Description: "You have learned that the Paragon Protectors are an arm of Crey,
and not simply an independent group hired by them."
How to earn: Defeat 200 Paragon Protectors.
Notes: Almost every mission in the Manticore TF is full of them. They
also spawn rarely in Crey's Folley.
Legionaire
----------
Description: "You have shown the leaders of the Warriors who the real combatant
is."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Warrior bosses.
Notes: They spawn around Talos Island and Striga Isle.
Master of Olympus
-----------------
Description: "You have destroyed the Kronos Titan, showing Malta that the
Heroes of Paragon City defend their turf."
How to earn: Defeat the Kronos Class Titan.
Notes: Spawns as an ambush after the "Stop Wildflower Project" mission,
and at the end of Crimson's "Project: World Wide Red" story arc,
at level 45.
Unleasher
---------
Description: "The Kraken was unleashed, but your might has put it down for
another day."
How to earn: Defeat Kraken, the Hydra Monster.
Notes: It's a random spawn in Perez Park. The one from the Sewer Trial
does not count.
Monkeywrencher
--------------
Description: "You have crushed Malta's Zeus Titans, the combination of two
damaged Hercules Titan robots."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Zeus Titans.
Notes: They spawn normally in Malta missions, and also if two damaged
Hercules Titans are near each other. Warburg has patrols of two
Hercules Titans wandering around.
Protectorate
------------
Description: "You have shown that you can protect the world from the energy
sapping eminators used by the Devouring Earth."
How to earn: Defeat 300 Devouring Earth Eminators.
Notes: Those would be the little trees of life, fungoids and cairns that
some drop. A good area is the eastern part of Talos, where large
groups of Herders spawn. They spawn at around level 25. The key is
to aggro them without killing them, so they drop the eminator.
Isolator
--------
Description: "You began your career on a high note, by personally ending the
riots of contaminate thugs in the Outbreak Zone."
How to earn: Arrest 100 Contaminated thugs. These are any mobs in the
"Contaminated" villain group. Contaminated Slicers, Thugs, etc.
The ones in the door mission in the tutorial count as well.
Notes: Simple enough for a damage based archetype. Controllers and
Tankers may want to look for teammates. The best way to tackle
this is to complete all the other missions in the tutorial first,
so you level up. This increases your damage and accuracy, making
things go ever so slightly faster. One of these spawns every few
hours in the tram in Recluse's Victory, but it's pretty much
camped 24/7. Good luck on getting it. And there's no progress bar,
either.
Regenerator
-----------
Description: "You have shown tenaciousness in taking down the leadership of the
Trolls... over and over again."
How to earn: Defeat 100 Ogres.
Notes: They spawn all over the place in Skyway and The Hollows.

Statesman's Pal
---------------
Description: "You have defeated Tyrant, the evil version of Statesman from the
Praetorian Earth."
How to earn: Defeat Tyrant, the Praetorian Archvillain.
Notes: He only spawns in the "Defeat Tyrant and his minions" mission at
the end of Maria Jenkins' "A Hero's Hero" story arc at level 45+.
The Solution
------------
Description: "You have bested Jurassik, the personification of the ideals of
the Devouring Earth. The world sleeps safer at night due to your
actions."
How to earn: Defeat Jurassik, the Devouring Earth Monster.

only the random spawn counts for the badge.

those with the ability to teleport."

Notes: They spawn a lot in Independence Port, as well as Siren's Call.

the catwalks in Crey's Folley.
Warden

convicts back on the inside, where they belong."

Outcasts' leaders."

Notes: They spawn occasionally on the streets of Steel Canyon and all
over the place in The Hollows.
Zookeeper
---------
Description: "You have earned the title Zookeeper by defeating the hordes of
Ruin Monkeys that plague Paragon City."
How to earn: Defeat 1,000 Rikti monkies.
Notes: "Monkey Island," the area in the upper right area of Peregrine
Island, spawns nothing but level 47-50 monkies. They also spawn in
large groups on the rooftops and streets of Crey's Folley.
Raver
-----
Description: "You have helped clean up the streets of the raving Trolls."
How to earn: Defeat 50 raving trolls.
Notes: Skyway City's zone event. Look for the glowing beefed up
trolls/police shootout near a warehouse. The raving trolls are the
ones that are dancing.
Nigh Indestructable
-------------------
Description: "You have proven yourself indestructable. You have survived one
hundred million points of damage."
How to earn: Take 100,000,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: Mesons, the radiation blasting minions of Anti-Matter, are a good
type of enemy to farm for this. Aggro as many of them as you can
take without dying while resting, then leave the game on
overnight.
Invulnerable
------------
Description: "Some call you invulnerable, based on the fact that you have
survived five hundred million points of damage."
How to earn: Take 500,000,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: It's almost impossible for a non-tanker to get this in the normal
course of play.
Immortal
--------
Description: "You are truly immortal. You have survived one billion points of
damage."
How to earn: Take 1,000,000,000 points of damage, total.
Notes: Either being attack while resting, or being attacked while you
have Aid Self on auto overnight for a few nights should put some
significant progress into this badge.
Deathless
---------
Description: "You have proven that you are Deathless in your pursuit against
evil."
How to earn: Pay off 5,000,000 debt.
Notes: Just die and then exemp. Or die and then do a lower level TF.
Undying
-------
Description: "You can't be certain, but you believe that the possibility exists
that you can not die."
How to earn: Pay off 10,000,000 debt.
Notes: I'm not sure if the Item of Power affects this or not.
Exalted
-------
Description: "You are truly Exalted and blessed by a higher being."
How to earn: Pay off 20,000,000 debt.
Notes: PvP zones are another idea, if you can stomach the thought. Mobs
in there give double experiance, and if you're above the level
you're auto exemped. Recluse's Victory is a good spot, if you just
take a heavy and start taking pillboxes. They're worth a lot more
then the average monster at that level.
Medical Specialist
------------------
Description: "You have helped your fellow heroes by healing them for ten
million hit points."
How to earn: Heal people for 10,000,000 damage.

Medicine Man
------------
Description: "You have helped your fellow heroes by healing them for fifty
million hit points."
How to earn: Heal people for 50,000,000 damage.
Notes: Overheals don't count. If they've taken 50 damage and you heal for
100, only the 50 is counted.
Empath
------
Description: "You have helped your fellow heroes by healing them for one
billion hit points."
How to earn: Heal people for 1,000,000,000 damage.
Notes: First, get a buddy. Have him SK you. Find a mission, kill everyone
but 1-3 guys who can hold. Have your buddy stand there and get
hit, using a taunt if he has one. Stand next to him with your heal
on auto. Leave the game on overnight. Repeat over the course of a
week. Depending on how strong the enemies are, you should get a
few holding badges, some damage badges, and healing badges.
Role Model
----------
Description: "You are looked at as a Role Model to the newest generation of
Heroes."
How to earn: Sidekick for a total of 20 hours.
Notes: See above.

knowledge with younger heroes."

you'll have these easilly.
Paradigm
--------

How to earn: Sidekick for a total of 100 hours.
Notes: It takes a while, but it's worth the title.
Trailblazer
-----------

where they've been, and you've left your mark on almost everything
you've touched in Paragon City. You've been there, done that, and
still adventure beckons you. Carry on, Hero!"
How to earn: Earn 200 badges.
Notes: There's over 350 badges in the game, so you have some breathing
room.
