Legendary Miner
Complete 500 missions.

For this trophy, you need to complete a whooping 500 missions. Not that much if you need to promote all four characters to gold!

Legendary Team
Earn Gold Promotions for all four dwarves.

Promotions can be earned once you reach level 25 with a class. There are a total of 4 classes:

• Gunner
• Scout
• Engineer
• Driller

To reach Gold promotion, you’ll need to promote each class 7 times:

• Bronze 1
• Bronze 2
• Bronze 3
• Silver 1
• Silver 2
• Silver 3
• Gold 1
  
  You start each class unranked, earning your first promotion to Bronze 1. In order to promote a character once you reach level 25, you’ll need to complete an assignment of 4 missions. This can be done with another character, to prevent EXP loss while promoting. Once the assignment has been completed go to the memorial hall where you van purchase the promotion for a small fee. You’ll now start at level 1 again.
  
  Upon promoting your class for the first time, you will receive some benefits:
• Extra perk slot
• Machine events
• Deep dives
• Extra assignments
  
  Experience is earned based on a lot of factors:
• Difficulty of the game (level 1-5)
• Hazards (Red flashing)
• Side objective
• Ores mined
• Events found ingame
  
  The top 3 best missions to farm EXP are:
• Mining Expedition
• Escort Duty
• Elimination
  
  Double EXP Events
  Keep an eye out for double EXP events while looking for games on the map. Those events rotate at random and may happen at any rotation. These will help you level up a lot faster.
