Untouchable unlocks when you parry six enemy attacks in a row — no dodging, blocking, or taking a hit in between — and the easiest way to chain them is a slow one-on-one fight rather than the crowded Chapter 1 ambush.
Untouchable is the toughest trophy in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. It doesn’t ask for a collectible or a hidden route — it asks you to keep your composure through six back-to-back parries, which is harder than it sounds the moment more than one bandit is swinging at you. Below is what the counter actually tracks, where to give yourself the best odds, and how to close it out cleanly.
What the Untouchable trophy asks for
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| Trophy tier | Silver |
| Requirement | Parry 6 attacks in a row |
| Earliest chance | Chapter 1 – Blood Ties |
| Best farm spot | Chapter X – Parallel Paths, The Bridge |
| Recommended setup | Nightmare difficulty + Invincible Mode |
Key The requirement is exact: successfully parry 6 attacks in a row. The catch is what breaks the chain. The game keeps an internal counter, and it resets the instant you do anything other than parry — that means a dodge resets it, a block resets it, and taking a single hit resets it. You have to deflect six incoming strikes in an unbroken run, so a parry is not interchangeable with the safer defensive options you’d normally lean on in a fight.
This is a Silver combat trophy, and the difficulty comes entirely from that “in a row” clause. One panicked dodge at attempt number five and you’re back to zero. Everything else in this guide is about removing the chaos that forces those mistakes.
Where to set up your parry chain
You can earn this from the very first chapter, Blood Ties, during the courtyard ambush right after you get knocked through a doorway. The problem is obvious the second it starts: you’re surrounded by multiple bandits at once, and with three of them swinging, one stray attack you didn’t parry will reset your count before you reach six. It’s doable there, but you’re fighting the crowd as much as the timing.
The calmer play is to isolate a single attacker so only one strike is ever coming at you. A much steadier option is to wait for Chapter X – Parallel Paths, in Subchapter 1 – The Bridge during the “Fight the army” objective. The first enemy wave there feeds you a continuous stream of melee attacks, so you get parry after parry without the fight ending — as long as you don’t cut the enemies down too fast. After you’ve finished the story once, Chapter Select lets you drop straight back into that encounter to farm it.
Turn on Invincible Mode and bait one enemy at a time — a missed parry then costs you the streak, not your life, so you can calmly restart the count instead of dying mid-attempt.
How to land six parries in a row
Watch the parry timer
Let an enemy wind up and press parry just before the blow connects rather than reacting early.
Never dodge or block between parries
A single dodge, block, or hit resets the counter to zero, so commit to parrying and nothing else until you hit six.
Isolate one attacker if crowds keep interrupting you
When a mob keeps breaking your chain, move to a later chapter where you can face an enemy one-on-one and let that single soldier feed you clean swings.
When Untouchable won’t unlock
If your parries look perfect and the trophy still won’t pop, the difficulty is the culprit. On the lowest difficulty the game auto-dodges attacks for you, which robs you of the manual parries the counter is looking for, and Untouchable fails to unlock on lower settings even when you meet the requirement. Difficulty doesn’t gate trophies in general, but for this specific trophy the workaround is unambiguous: play on Nightmare with Invincible Mode on, and the unlock behaves.
The other two failure points are on you rather than the game. Mixing in a dodge or block mid-chain silently resets the count, so keep your defense pure parries. And don’t kill the enemies too quickly — if you drop your attacker before six strikes have come in, there’s no continuous chain to complete, which is exactly why the steady wave at The Bridge works so well.
Equipping the Rusty Sword helps Untouchable register more reliably. The difficulty and Invincible Mode setup is what actually does the heavy lifting, but use the Rusty Sword for the best results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Untouchable missable if I don’t get it during Chapter 1?
No. It isn’t tied to a one-time scripted moment, and there’s no window that closes on you. Once you’ve finished the story you can use Chapter Select to return to any chapter as often as you like, so the six-parry chain — and the reliable Parallel Paths farm spot — stays available for as long as it takes. Combat trophies like this can be repeated freely after the credits, so a missed attempt just means restarting the checkpoint and trying again.
