Win a run without dealing any damage.
Dove achievement quick answer
Dove is about winning without dealing damage; it is not automatically the same as no-hit. Normal or Pressure runs are the safer target than unrelated Challenge attempts.
Current July 2026 public route discussion keeps the practical checklist simple: spikes count as your damage, unbinding attacks helps prevent accidental failures, and the last boss can be finished by allies or environmental damage instead of your own hit.
The route is food, movement, outlasting, and avoiding player-owned damage triggers.
