Achievement Guide

[Sir scotch 2 u]

thanx for this gude, been very helpful, its been buggin me where to start this achievement.

[Smike]

My sister and I, playing splitscreen co-op, had every achievement on this DLC glitch so far, in that one of us gets it and the other doesn't. The weird thing is, it's seemingly random (I got one, she got one). I would understand it if one of us got all of the achievements and the other didn't, but it's completely random.

I wouldn't say this with 100% certainty, but from the quests we've done so far, it appears that the person NOT turning in the quest gets the achievement, while the one that DOES turn it in does not. That's just a quick observation and may not be completely true, but I know that for two achievements (House Of Ned and Jakob's Fodder), she turned in the first one and I turned in the second one, and the opposite person got the achievement for it.

However - quitting to dashboard, reloading the save, and going into single player makes it pop right as you teleport in. Simply going straight to single player without dashboarding and reloading, however, does NOT pop the achievement. You have to re-access the save from the harddrive completely.

I've found the "Dove" pistol that I got for defeating Slither in the main game (2nd playthrough) to be a great help taking down the Zombie hordes. Fairly accurate for headshots and no Ned to reload at all the Dove I picked up also had a fire atrib which took a lot down of them

I just finished the story and was wondering if this DLC is worth it, from what ive read moxi's is worthless any thoughs? also im level 38 trying to at least get to 40 before the secret army DLC would this be enough?

[Blademrk]

Found Zombie Island really enjoyable.

Moxxi's is only worth it if you like GoW Horde Mode. I've found even the first playthrough of Moxxi's to be insanely hard in single player (with my lvl 50 Hunter) and it can get abit repetative with only 3 maps.

What is "fact" that you're talking about.

I don't know if this help, but here goes.

Any brain(s) you collected before talking to TK to activate the mission will not be count toward the xx/xx (xxx/xxx). So if you had collected over 500 brains, you will not get braaaaaaaaaaain achievement immediately after talking to TK.

Hope this helped. Your post is confusing, and I couldn't quite understood clearly.

ah i ment to say after you talk with tk's leg. the mission hasnt popped up for me so im just confused as to why it isnt and where is tk at in that area of zombie island or whatever lol

Just go inside the very same house that you find TK's leg on the porch.

He's sitting there gurgling and there's a ton of ammo caches in there too.

Talk to him and he'll give you the Braaaaaaaaaaains missions.

What a pain in the ass these missions are, but I'm almost done (got like 65/250).

The brain collecting crap reminds me of Spider-Man: Web of Shadows where they make you save 5 civilians, then 10, then 50, then 100. It's annoying.

[TheOriginal561]

i honestly havent had a problem with getting them i get like 20 a horde i head shot the crap put of every one of them.

Oh, well this clarify everything. What HornzOverHalos said. If you hadn't start playing yet, you'll have to gather 10 brains, go back to TK. After, you'll have to collect 25 brains, go back to TK, Then you'll have to do two more time (50, 100 or 150) before you get the 250 (last one). If you are in the beginning of the game and try to collect the brains first, then you are a smart man.

[TheOriginal561]

ha well i already went through the dlc and beat it all, even then i thought um when will this pop up. i have to go find tk i dont remember where in the dlc he is located

[RuggersAssassin]

Good guide and good DLC. Only problem was it went by very fast. Did it with me and a friend who were level 50 and got all the achievements and main quest done in about a little under 2 hours. A little short for my liking, but I can still run through some pointless sidequests.

[SaltySausage]

"House of the Ned" description is inaccurate. The first mission you play is "Welcoming Committee." "House of the Ned" isn't completed until you actually meet Ned. Highly recommend modifying this to avoid players being mislead.

[Kurby]

Thanks for this, I went straight to see TK and got the brains one done pretty early

If you enter with a level 50 char that hasn`t finished playthrough 2, the zombies will be about level 42-44.
With a char that HAS finished playthrough 2, your enemies will be level 50+.

are the enemy levels directly related to you own level? I just finished playthough 1 and haven't started playthrough 2, I'm a level 37... should I start playthrough 2 and level up a bit before plaything the DLC or will the zombies scale down to the right level for me when I start playing?

Thanks for the guild this is properly the best dlc of the game.

[FrangaX]

Thanks for the guide. I would have had a bit of trouble with the Brains achievement without it.

[StayonTarget]

Does the claptrap help you get the Fully Loaded achievement? (getting 42 inventory spaces)
