Clocking Out
Defeat the dragon and complete your contract.

Clocking Out in ForgeTax has one stated objective: defeat the dragon and complete your contract. The official Steam achievement listing uses the same completion requirement, so focus on that objective rather than the separate tribute, shopping, or weapon-forging achievements. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
How to Complete
- Work toward the dragon encounter. Defeating the dragon is explicitly required for Clocking Out. The available information does not describe how to reach the encounter, where it takes place, or whether any prerequisites must be met.
- Defeat the dragon. Encountering the dragon or dying to it does not satisfy the stated objective. The Steam listing identifies dying to the dragon for the first time as a different achievement, Now Hiring. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
- Complete your contract. Keep the full requirement in mind: Clocking Out calls for both defeating the dragon and completing the contract. The source does not explain whether the contract completes automatically after victory or requires a separate interaction, so no additional turn-in step can be confirmed.
What Counts Toward Clocking Out?
The verified objective is narrow: dragon defeated, contract completed. The supplied achievement listing includes several other milestones, but it does not identify them as prerequisites for Clocking Out. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
In particular, distinguish these nearby achievements from your current goal:
| Achievement | Listed requirement | Difference from Clocking Out |
|---|---|---|
| Now Hiring | Die to the dragon for the first time. | Records a death to the dragon rather than the required victory. |
| One Last Chance | Pay tribute in full at the last Rage stage. | Describes a tribute milestone, not the dragon-and-contract objective. |
| A Job for Life | Pay tribute in full three times after completing the contract. | Explicitly concerns activity after contract completion. |
These requirements come from the official Steam achievement listing. Their presence alongside Clocking Out does not establish a required completion order. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
Combat and Preparation
The available source confirms the goal, but provides no dragon combat walkthrough. It does not specify attacks to avoid, vulnerable phases, recommended weapons, upgrade levels, or a reliable combat strategy.
The listing does contain separate weapon-mastery achievements for forging particular weapons to +30, but it does not state that a +30 weapon is necessary for Clocking Out. Do not treat those mastery targets as verified preparation requirements for this task. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
Likewise, the source supplies no confirmed route to the dragon or instructions for completing the contract after the fight. A more detailed sequence would require information beyond the supplied record and achievement text.
Completion and Follow-Up
The official listing presents Clocking Out as the achievement associated with defeating the dragon and completing your contract. It does not specify an additional item, currency payout, or other in-game reward. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
If you want a documented goal after contract completion, A Job for Life requires paying tribute in full three times afterward. That is a separate achievement objective, not an extra requirement listed for Clocking Out. [src-9a24f3ac8e]
