If you’ve been exploring PEAK’s The Roots update, you may have noticed some new badges you can collect. While some are as simple as climbing to the top of this update’s biome, others are a little trickier to obtain, especially if you’ve yet to try this level.
All PEAK The Roots update achievements
PEAK’s The Roots update features 11 new badges you can obtain for cosmetic rewards. If you’re playing on Steam, you’ll also unlock achievements that you can show off on your profile. Here’s a complete list of badges added in PEAK’s The Roots update.
| Badge | How to obtain |
|---|---|
| Forestry Badge | Climb to the top of PEAK’s Roots biome. |
| Undead Encounter Badge | Have a zombie within the Roots biome bite you. Zombies spawn in the Roots biome, appearing as a regular character with mushrooms growing out of its body. You can cure the bite using healing items, such as the first-aid kit and bandages. |
| Web Security Badge | Approach a spider and get caught in its web. Press the on-screen key prompt before preparing for a long drop to the ground. Raise your stamina beforehand to make surviving easier. |
| Advanced Mycology Badge | Eat every Shroomberry type introduced in the Roots biome within one expedition. You’ll need to find red, yellow, blue, green, and purple Shroomberries. |
| Applied Esoterica Badge | Use the Book of Bones on a dead friend to bring them back to life. It’s a Mythical item, so you’ll need to rely on Ancient Statues and luggage bags to obtain it. |
| Calcium Intake Badge | Drink Fortified Milk cartons found inside luggage bags before taking damage. Some easy ways to do this include getting attacked by zombies and taking elemental damage within Mesa and Alpine. |
| Competitive Eating Badge | Eat three hot dogs within five seconds or less. You’ll find hot dogs alongside marshmallows atop a level’s peak. You may need to stockpile them in a backpack if you get unlucky with their spawns. |
| Cryptogastronomy Badge | Cook and eat a Mandrake plant. They look like medicinal plants, except they’ll scream at you and inflict stamina damage when you hold them. Once you pick one up, avoid selecting it in your hotbar and toss it into your backpack before cooking it on a portable stove or campfire. |
| Disaster Response Badge | Use a Rescue Claw to pull an unconscious friend 30 meters. You can find Rescue Claws inside luggage bags. |
| Mycoacrobatics Badge | Use the large mushrooms in the Roots biome to jump around. You’ll need to climb high before carefully jumping onto a mushroom far below you. |
| Tread Lightly Badge | Climb to the top of the Roots biome without surpassing 25 percent spores damage in your stamina bar. You’ll take spore damage from walking into toxin-filled plants and getting attacked by zombies. |
