According to a guide in RANews this is missable by buying the upgrade. Does it disable the cheevo forever? Because you can downgrade by getting it eaten, then buying the basic one. It still becomes missable after getting the mirror shield, though.

Eu comprei o escudo, mas não ocorreu nem uma conquista. Alguém pode explicar?

Hint: Mysterious ponds.

Agora que fui entender a conquista... deveria ter prestado mais atenção nela
