In the next few days, is it okay i help you out with this?
Im just not too sure if it's a mod only thing or what

Pulsian Pioneer Bronze/15g:
Took over 10,000 steps on the lowerworld surface.
Basically, from the very moment you set foot on Pulse to the end of of Chapter 11, every step you take will be accounted for.
Upon your first visit to Oerba, you must repair Bhakti for this achievement to unlock.
The location for his parts are as follows:
-The Battery Pack is located in the Higher Section Next to Vanille's Home. Note that slaying the Vetala is necessary to acquire this part.
-The Power Cable is found in the cart next to the large wind turbine on the square outside of Vanille's House.
-Once you have advanced far enough into the village, you should come across a slope leading to the lower levels of Oerba. At the bottom of the slope, there should be a Vampire, slay it to obtain the Trochoid Gear.
-The Aspheric Lens is obtained from the Computers inside of the Deserted Schoolhouse. Again you must slay the creatures inside to reap your reward.
-The Metal Plate is located at the very beginning of the Rust-Eaten Bridge. It is near impossible to miss it.

After successfully repairing Bhakti, speak to him for an Achievement and an absolutely fantastic reward consisting of:
-10 vials of Deceptisol
-2 Ultra-Compact Reactors
-A Gold Nugget
-5 vials of Perfume
-Three Platinum Ingots
The total reward will vary as to how many steps in total you have taken.
And hey, if worse comes to worse, you can just run around in circles forever.

Gysahl Wreath Bronze/15g
Dug up 20 treasures while on a Chocobo
There has been some confusion on this subject, as to whether or not if its as simple as digging up a ribbon, or digging up 20 chocobo-mounted treasures.
To clear this up, every twentieth treasure is in fact a ribbon.
To actually be able to ride a Chocobo, you must complete Mark Mission 14.

Kelger's Cup Bronze/15g:
Complete all D-class Mark Missions
This corresponds to Mark Missions 1-5

Xezat's Chalice Bronze/15g
Complete All C-class Mark Missions
This corresponds to Cieth Stone Missions 6-22

Exorcist Silver/30g:
Defeat The 7 Undying Marks

L'Cie Paragon Gold/80g
You will need an absolutely maxed out main party to achieve this.
You will need the Gold Watch Accessory.
You may need lower grade weapons to increase the target time.

What all this means is, that you will need to have the Gold Watch Accessory equipped when going back and doing all Mark Missions that you didn't 5-star the first time.
Having low-grade equipment will also increase the target time, or equipment with abilities like stagger-lock or party dampening abilities on.
For example, if you are fighting an enemy that is weak to magic, having weapons equipped with abilities like fettered magic on will raise the target time.

quote X

With regards to the 5* orphan battle... Can you fight Orphan a second time?

Or do you have to make a seperate save to get multiple tries.

Yes you can fight orphan an infinite amount of times.
After you save, and after viewing the ending credits, reload the same file that was previously saved and you will be placed back at The Narthex, with stage 10 of the Crystarium unlocked.

yes but if you equip the genji glove on vanille and have it staggared death will deal massive amounts of damage you can spam death and have two coms attack and this should put him down pretty easy
