Before you start

Open the official Roblox experience so badge progress is recorded on the right account.

Check the badge name in-game before starting; several badges unlock from nearby depth milestones.

Keep enough Tokens for basic fill-speed and capacity upgrades before attempting late checkpoints.

Step-by-step walkthrough

Follow these steps in order. Each step is written so you can complete it in-game without watching a long video.

Detailed notes

Launch badges versus the current list

The ItzVexo all-badges walkthrough documents the original progression set, including checkpoint, chest, drain, Skill Tree, Phone ending, and Bucket List goals. Those conditions remain useful for route planning.

The current official API contains 40 badges. The July updates added Shark mastery, lifetime currency, Medium/Hard clears, restriction runs, Hidden Treasure, hidden object finds, Lost Trident, and crafting goals for Energy Pads, Auto Drains, and Depositors. The August Endless wave added Demolition Expert (TNT bucket), Harbour Explorer, Ruler of Atlantis, and Frozen Throne (ending); the API does not list requirements for Harbour Explorer or Ruler of Atlantis. The older video should not be used as a complete current checklist.

Best order for a new account

Complete the automatic route badges first because every drain contributes to depth, Tokens, chests, and Skill Tree progress at the same time. Clean up Shark Bait and Lucky Find during that route.

Move to Medium, Hard, Tourist, Skill Issue, and the longest collection totals only after the Phone ending is repeatable. This minimizes invalid challenge attempts and lets stronger buckets support the grind badges.

Pro tips

  • ✓Claim badge Diamond rewards before shopping for buckets.
  • ✓Combine chest, drain-count, and checkpoint progress in the same Easy run.
  • ✓Use the official 40-badge table rather than an older launch-only checklist.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • !Treating an older 19-badge video as the current complete list.
  • !Starting Tourist or Skill Issue before learning the route.
  • !Grinding 1,000 chests before unlocking efficient buckets and checkpoints.

Verification notes

  • Primary intent: reference. This page focuses on one player task instead of mixing unrelated searches.
  • Difficulty estimate: Easy. Use this to decide whether to attempt it now or after more upgrades.
  • Updated data stamp: 2026-08-17. Badge names and rates are based on official Roblox data available at that time.
