To unlock the Last Resort Badge in PEAK, enter a co-op run, get the Ritual Dagger, lower yourself below 25% health, then sacrifice a teammate from behind so the dagger heals more than 75% of your health in one burst.
Last Resort is about one huge heal, not several smaller heals added together. Use the Ritual Dagger while you are nearly empty so it restores more than 75% of your health at once.
Key The catch is that the dagger works by sacrificing another Scout. That makes this a co-op-only badge: bring at least one willing teammate, because the player you sacrifice will be killed and left as a ghost after the backstab.
Why you need Ritual Dagger for Last Resort in PEAK
The badge condition is simple: trigger a single Ritual Dagger heal large enough to cover more than 75% damage. Normal healing, repeated healing, or topping yourself off from moderate damage will not satisfy the requirement.
Because the dagger’s heal comes from sacrificing another player, you need a co-op run with another Scout close enough for the SACRIFICE prompt to appear when you approach from behind.
How to get and use the Ritual Dagger in PEAK
This route sets up the exact missing-health window, then uses the Ritual Dagger backstab to fire the badge heal in one burst.
STEP 1/5
Find a Ritual Dagger
Loot until you get the Ritual Dagger, a relic item found from relic luggage or scout crates. Ancient Idol and Ancient Luggage are separate from Ritual Dagger containers.
STEP 2/5
Lower your health below 25%
Damage yourself until you are low enough for a full heal to restore more than 75%; jumping from palm trees is the demonstrated way to take damage.
STEP 3/5
Stand behind your teammate
Move behind a willing friend with the dagger equipped until the on-screen SACRIFICE prompt appears.
STEP 4/5
Sacrifice the teammate
Use the sacrifice prompt to stab them from behind, killing them, turning them to stone, and leaving them dead as a ghost.
STEP 5/5
Receive the large heal
Your health refills in one burst, and the Last Resort Badge unlocks when that heal covers more than 75% of your health.

Run setup for Last Resort
| Requirement | What |
|---|---|
| Co-op run | Start with at least two Scouts; the dagger method needs another player. |
| Willing teammate | Have one friend stand still so you can trigger the backstab sacrifice prompt. |
| Ritual Dagger | Loot relic containers such as relic luggage or scout crates; Ancient Idols and Ancient Luggage are separate items, not Ritual Dagger containers. |
| Low health | Drop below 25% health so the dagger’s heal exceeds the badge threshold. |
| Ancient Idol nearby | Use one if your group wants to revive the sacrificed Scout quickly afterward. |
Do the sacrifice right after dropping below 25% health so the Ritual Dagger heal is large enough and you do not lose the setup by healing early.
What happens after the Ritual Dagger sacrifice
When the sacrifice lands, the target Scout is instantly killed and petrified, with the body turning to stone and sometimes shattering. The dagger user receives the large heal immediately.
The heal can restore the user to full health, and the dagger can also clear ailments such as hunger or burning. The sacrificed teammate is not merely knocked down, so plan on reviving them if the run is continuing.
Mistakes that block the Last Resort Badge
Trying this in solo is the easiest way to waste time. The Ritual Dagger depends on sacrificing another Scout, so a solo run cannot provide the target needed for the badge.
Using the dagger too early is the other common failure. If you are above 25% health, the heal will not cross the required over 75% mark in one burst.
Positioning also matters. Approach from behind and wait for the actual SACRIFICE prompt instead of swinging at the wrong angle or trying to use the dagger on enemies. The badge is tied to the teammate sacrifice heal, not combat damage or ordinary recovery items.
