Master Criminal (Achievement)

Master Criminal

Master Criminal is an achievement/trophy in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, for which a bounty of 1000 Gold must be earned in all of the nine Holds at the same time.

This achievement is easily unlocked at a high level, as the Dragonborn can take more hits. Killing a guard in front of witnesses will give an automatic 1000 bounty. The easiest strategy here is to kill a guard, flee and fast travel to another hold. One could also steal a horse at the stables to facilitate the escape. Repeat for all nine holds. Those who want to keep a good reputation could do this achievement on another save file, and reload their "good" game once it has been unlocked.

General information

  • Killing all witnesses will remove the bounty accumulated. Some NPCs should be left alive to tell the tale in order to keep the bounty high.
  • It's easy to unlock this achievement if the Dragonborn has been infected with lycanthropy. Simply turning into a werewolf in front of someone will cause a 1000 Gold bounty from transforming. Just leave and repeat in the next hold. This trick also works with the Vampire Lord transformation.
  • The current bounties in each hold are available from the pause menu. Click on 'General Stats' and choose the crime option.
  • If the Dragonborn is the Thane of a hold, they will not technically have a bounty if the Thane's privilege hasn't been used recently. If this achievement won't pop, even if all bounties are 1000+ in the menu, then the Dragonborn can return to the holds where they are Thane. Demand that any bounty be wiped clean as Thane, then commit the crime of choice again.
  • Performing this as a werewolf allows faster escape to fast travel to another hold. Having the Ring of Hircine allows for multiple transformations a day.
