I have posted a selection of game saves to recover lost progress, or advance if you want. There is a save before each boss. All echoes are collected, all items not on side quest paths and all citizen stories not on side quest paths are done. All stats are level 3 and all weapons are level 3 or lower. If you load the Iron Queen save, you can easily get the blacksmith achievement.

Nexus Mods, Steelrising Game saves with no side quests complete
