Hardest achievement for me was definitely getting the good ending with Proud Cragger, just due to how slow his attacks are and how they have low priority compared to the AI. I'd suggest playing on Hard and not Normal for him, just for the extra points due to the added difficulty, since it's like you'll have to use a continue or two in either difficulty setting.
I made a video of my run for Legendary Golden Warrior, using Chronos Lait who trivialises the game with his pounce move that ignores the AI blocking. It can be found at https://youtu.be/DxeW2EoDcMs
