If you're tired of seeing locked achievements on your profile, this evade badge guide will help you clear out the list without losing your mind. Evade is one of those games where some badges feel like a total gift, while others make you want to throw your keyboard across the room. Whether you're a new player just trying to figure out how not to get downed in five seconds or a seasoned pro looking for that one elusive secret, getting every badge is a solid way to show off your skills in the lobby.
The Low-Hanging Fruit
Let's start with the stuff you're probably going to get just by playing the game. These aren't exactly "achievements" in the sense that they require massive skill, but you've got to start somewhere. The First Win badge is exactly what it sounds like. You just need to survive one round. Honestly, if you find a good spot to hide or just follow a group of high-level players, you'll get this in your first five minutes.
Then there's the Survivor badge. You get this for winning a certain amount of rounds. It's a bit of a grind, but it's inevitable if you play long enough. The same goes for the Medic badge. You get this by reviving players. Since people are constantly getting flattened by Nextbots, you'll have plenty of opportunities to run over and help them up. Just make sure you aren't about to get hit yourself while you're reviving someone, or you'll both be sitting there waiting for a third person to save you.
The Real Grinds
Now we're getting into the territory where you actually have to put in some hours. The 1000 Wins badge is a beast. There's no real shortcut here; you just have to play a lot. The best way to speed this up is to play on maps you know well and use items like the Teleporter or Stilts to stay mobile. If you're playing on a map with a lot of verticality, you can often outrun the bots just by jumping between platforms.
Another one that takes some effort is the Master of the Boards badge. This is usually tied to getting a high score or reaching a specific level. You'll want to focus on surviving as long as possible and getting as many revives as you can, as those points add up fast. Don't just camp in a corner the whole time; you get more points for being active. Plus, camping is boring, and some of the smarter bots will eventually find you anyway.
Hunting for Secrets
This is where things get interesting. Evade is famous for its hidden secrets and "Easter egg" style badges. If you've seen people walking around with the Bobo badge, you might be wondering how on earth they got it. Usually, these involve finding a specific hidden room or interacting with a weird object tucked away in a corner of a map.
For some of these secret badges, you'll need to do a bit of parkour. Many maps have "out of bounds" areas that aren't actually out of bounds—they're just hard to reach. If you see a weirdly placed ladder or a platform that looks just a little too far to jump to, there's a good chance a badge or a secret is waiting there. Using the Grappling Hook is almost mandatory for some of these. It lets you reach spots that are otherwise impossible to get to.
One tip for secret hunting: do it in a private server if you can. It's way easier to explore a map when you don't have a giant floating meme chasing you at Mach 10. You can take your time, look behind every crate, and really figure out the layout without the constant threat of getting jumpscared.
Movement is Everything
You can't really talk about an evade badge guide without mentioning movement. If you move like a turtle, you're never going to get the harder survival badges. You need to learn how to G-slide. It's the bread and butter of high-level play. Essentially, you're using a combination of crouching and jumping to maintain momentum and move much faster than the bots can.
Once you master the G-slide, the game changes completely. You're no longer just running away; you're outmaneuvering the AI. This is huge for badges that require you to survive for long periods or win streaks. If you can stay fast, you can survive even when the bots start speeding up at the end of a round.
Also, don't forget about wall-running and climbing. A lot of players forget they have these tools, but they're lifesavers. If you're trapped in a hallway with a bot coming at you, jumping at a wall and scaling it might be your only way out. Practicing these movements in the lobby or on empty maps will make a world of difference when the pressure is on.
Using Items Wisely
Items aren't just for fun; they're essential for some of the tougher achievements. The Barrier is great for blocking off narrow paths, giving you a few extra seconds to breathe. The Sensor can help you keep track of where the bots are, which is vital on dark maps or maps with lots of twists and turns.
If you're going for badges related to revives, carry Medkits. They speed up the process significantly. If you're going for survival, the Soda gives you a temporary speed boost that can get you out of a sticky situation. I've seen so many people die with a full inventory of items they never used. Don't be that person. Use what you've got to stay alive.
The "Insane" Badges
There are a few badges in the game that are labeled as "Insane" or just feel like they should be. These usually involve winning on specific maps under really difficult conditions or finding secrets that are incredibly well-hidden. For these, you really need a team. Trying to do the hardest challenges with a group of random players who might not know what they're doing is an exercise in frustration.
Find a couple of friends or join a Discord group where people are badge hunting. Communication makes everything easier. You can have one person distract the bots while another person goes for the secret item or reaches the hidden area. It's also just more fun to celebrate with other people when that badge notification finally pops up in the corner of your screen.
Stay Patient and Have Fun
At the end of the day, badge hunting should be fun, not a chore. Some of these are going to take time. You're going to get caught by a bot right before you reach a secret area. You're going to lose a win streak because of a lag spike. It happens. The key is to keep at it.
The community is usually pretty helpful, too. If you're stuck on a specific badge, don't be afraid to ask around in the chat. Most veteran players are happy to show you where a secret is or give you tips on how to handle a certain map.
Hopefully, this breakdown gives you a better idea of how to tackle the list. Just remember to keep moving, use your items, and don't take the jumpscares too seriously. Good luck out there—you're gonna need it when the bots start closing in!
