|name=Broken Body|image=Broken Body (Achievement) icon.png|imagewidth=|caption=<!-- Leave empty. -->|description=Survive long enough to receive the final Affliction in Misery Mode.|% of players who have earned it=}}'''Broken Body''' is an [[Achievements|achievement]] in ''[[The Long Dark]]''.<br />
==Guide==<br />
The player must survive a [[Survival Mode]] game set to the [[Misery]] Experience long enough to acquire the [[Broken Body]] Affliction (hence the namesake of this achievement).<br />
<br />
Using the [[Hibernation]] method can be a way to make time move faster, but the player must ensure that they survive long enough while having to combat the other 4 stages of Misery. The same survival strategies found on the [[Survival Mode/Interloper Tips]] can be a good start to learn how to survive on Misery, as Misery is just a harder version of Interloper but by a small margin.<br />
<br />
== Stages of Misery ==<br />
Over time at fixed intervals, the survivor will be [[Afflictions|Afflicted]] with the 5 Stages of Misery; permanent conditions unique to Misery making survival increasingly challenging.<br />
<br />
Stage 1 and 5 are always [[Diminished Form]] and [[Broken Body]] respectively, with stages 2-4 randomized between: [[Haunted Mind]], [[Frigid Bones]], [[Rheumatic Joints]], and [[Sour Stomach]].<br />
<br />
* Stage 1: Hardship<br />
** 1 day survived: [[Diminished Form]]<br />
* Stage 2: Sorrow<br />
** 6 days survived: Random New Misery Affliction<br />
* Stage 3: Despair<br />
** 16 days survived: Random New Misery Affliction<br />
* Stage 4: Torment<br />
** 31 days survived: Two Remaining New Misery Afflictions<br />
* Stage 5: Ruin<br />
** 46 days survived: [[Broken Body]]<br />
