Achievement Guide and Road Map
 Overview: -Estimated achievement difficulty: 5/10 -Offline Achievements: 45 Achievements - 895  -Online Achievements: 5 Achievements - 105 -Approximate amount of time to 1000: 30 Hours -Minimum number of playthroughs needed: 1 Campaign, 1 Echo -Number of missable achievements: None, you can go back with 'Chapter Select'. -Do cheat codes disable achievements: No Cheats -Does difficulty affect achievements: Yes -Glitchy achievements: None -Unobtainable achievements: None Step 1: Campaign Your first step is to complete the single player campaign, I recommend selecting the 'Very Hard' difficulty straight up. This way you will not have to beat the game 2+ times saving you a lot of time on getting the rest of the achievements. Very Hard is actually not that hard in this game compared to others and could easily be finished even by the lest experienced players. While playing through the campaign you will unlock the story based achievements, but there are also a few that need special attention. If you follow my guide you will have no problems getting these all in one playthrough as I have them all in order as they come available. If you do happen to miss some of them, after you have finished the Campaign you can simply go to the main menu and choose mission select to pick up the missing achievements. From the main menu go 'Campaign - Chapter Select -' then simply pick the chapter you need for the achievement. The chapter and act for each achievement is in my guide if your not sure were to go. While playing through the campaign you will also have to find all Newsbots and Electroflies. Keep an eye out and get as many as you can during your playthrough, if you have missed any after you have finished the game you can go to 'Chapter Select' and look at each chapter and if you have all Newsbots/Electroflies for that Act. I personally got all Newsbots in one playthrough, their not to hard to spot because of the noise they make. Its kind of like radio advertisements, you will become familiar with the sound they make after you destroy your first one. For guides on the locations of Newsbots and Electroflies see guide. Here's a list of all the achievements that you will unlock during the campaign: Fits like a Glove Pointless* Patched Up All Bow To Heavy Metal Disco Inferno* Size Matters Damsel in Distress Destroyer of Worlds* Om Nom Nom!* Chop-Chopper* Weed Killer No Man Left Behind* Minced Meat Red Barrels* Grilled Meat Armed and Dangerous Stowaway I Might Be Late* Just One Last Thing* I put a '*' next to the missable achievements so if your following this guide you will know to stop and read up on them before carrying on with the game. Step 2: Echo Mode Echo mode is a mode were you have to get through the level as quick as possible, at the same time getting as many points as possible. Each of the 14 levels have 3 starts you can gain, to do this you need to meet the required score on each level. After you have completed a level, a stats card will come up on the screen. If you did NOT gain 3 stars on a level it will tell you how many points you missed by next to your score at the end. In that case just hit  to retry. You will gain all of the Echo mode star and point related achievements once you get 3 stars on each level. If you are just shy of 150,000 total points just go back to some levels you think you could of done better on and try to improve your score.While playing Echo mode you will also want to pick up these achievements: Master of Disaster Old School Enforcer Guerrilla Tactics Step 3: Anarchy Mode Anarchy mode is basically a horde mode were you try and get the most points possible each round. You will have to reach level 65 in this mode getting all other achievements along the way. You CAN level up in private matches, and you gain an extra 25,000 XP if you have the online code which will help you out. Good solid teamwork is the key in Anarchy mode, so get your friends to help you or use the 'Achievement Trading' thread. On your way to level 65 you will want to pick up these achievements: Environment Master Team Player Anarchy Master Step 4: Clean Up By now you should have all campaign achievements, all Echo achievements and all Anarchy achievements. So the only one left to worry about is 'Golden Idol'. If you don't have this by now refer to the list that I linked you to in the guide to see what Skillshots you are missing. This can be done in all modes.

 Red BarrelsExplode all the red barrels on the rooftop while in a helicopter - 10 At the end of Act 5 Chapter 3 you will take control the mini-gun in a chopper. Make sure you do not miss any red barrels while your shooting. There are 6 sections with barrels that you have to hit, if you miss any press  and select 'Restart Checkpoint'. You can restart checkpoint in the cut-scene so don't stress, it will start you of back in the chopper.Best done on Very Easy. Here's a video:  Grilled MeatPrepare a big meal using an improvised electric stove - 15 In Act 6 Chapter 3 you will encounter another giant Burnout. Shoot him until he is stunned and kick him into the electrical wires. Once he is caught in the wires if you look just above him there will be a power box sitting there, grab it with your leash (  ) and it will short the wires killing the giant Burnout.Story related, cannot be missed.  Armed and dangerousGrow as a person, experience betrayal. Again. - 15 In Act 6 Chapter 3 you will have to de-active the bomb, things don't go to plan as Sarrono makes you type in a funny code that activates the bomb instead. Story related, cannot be missed.  StowawayCatch a Ride - 15 In Act 7 Chapter 1 you will have to run to the ship before it leaves. Make sure you get there before the timer reaches zero and this achievement will unlock. Story related, cannot be missed.  I Might Be LateKill all enemies during the sprint to the jumpship - 20 In Act 7 Chapter 1 you will have to run to the jump ship before the timer runs out. Make sure you kill all the enemies on the way. The Screamer is a good gun for this because of its power also the Penetrator because it can kill multiple enemies at once. Best done on Very Easy. Here is a video:  Just one last thingKill all enemies before you reach the escape capsule - 20 In Act 7 Chapter 2 make sure you kill all enemies before you board the escape capsule. The Penetrator is a good option for this because of its power and because it can take out more than one enemy at once. The last enemy that you stomp back out the door counts towards this. Best done on Very Easy. Here's a video:  Destructive BeatComplete the Campaign on Very Easy or Easy Difficulty - 20 See 'Blood Symphony.  Violent MelodyComplete the Campaign on Normal Difficulty - 30 See 'Blood Symphony'.  Brutal ChorusComplete the Campaign on Hard Difficulty - 40 See 'Blood Symphony'.  Blood SymphonyComplete the Campaign on Very Hard Difficulty - 50 This game is surprisingly easy on Very Hard. Here's some useful tips on how to beat the game on this difficulty: When your health is low and the health warning shows, get the cover. Health regenerates pretty quickly so you won't waste much time hiding. Keep your eye out for good Skill Kills. On Very Hard ammo, charges and upgrades cost more than the other modes. Basically keep your cool and don't rush and you should have Very Hard finished in no time. Once you beat the game on Very Hard all other difficulty achievements are unlocked as well.  Major MalfunctionDestroy 50% of the Newsbots in the Single Player Campaign - 10 See 'Total Malfunction'.  Total MalfunctionDestroy all Newsbots in the Single Player Campaign - 20 There are 28 Newsbots total. There's a very helpful pictured guide on their locations here. Here's a video:  InsecticideDestroy 50% of the Electroflies in the Single Player Campaign - 10 See 'Pest Control'.  Pest ControlDestroy all Electroflies in the Single Player Campaign - 20 There are 21 swarms of Electroflies total. There's a very helpful pictured guide on their locations here. Here's a video:  Space PirateDrink at least 20 bottles of Nom Juice in the Single Player Campaign - 10 See 'Straight Edge'.  Straight EdgeDestroy at least 20 bottles of Nom Juice in the Single Player Campaign - 10 You can find a guide to help you locate the Nom Juice bottles Here. Another way is to go to Act 2 Chapter 1. Once you get to the club, drink/smash the first 2 bottles on the desk as you walk in the door. As soon as you drink/smash then restart checkpoint and you will restart right there gain. Repeat you will have to restart a total of 20 times to unlock both achievements. Here's a video:

 WannabePerform 10 different Single Player Skillshots - 10 See 'Golden Idol'.  SomebodyPerform 25% of the Single Player Skillshots - 20 See 'Golden Idol'.  Bid CheesePerform 50% of the Single Player Skillshots - 30 See 'Golden Idol'.  CelebrityPerform 75% of the Single Player Skillshots - 40 See 'Golden Idol'.  Golden IdolPerform every Single Player Skillshot in the game - 50 You can find a detailed list of Skillshots here. Skillshots carry over after you have finished the game, to get the remaining Skillshots just go to 'Chapter Select' or 'Echo' mode to get them.  Master of DisasterEarn 2000 points or more at once - 40 An easy way to get this is on the Echo level 'Rooftops', make sure you have your pistol out and the charge flare loaded. Run straight in and drink the Nom juice on the table at the back right hand corner of the room, then shoot the flare at the roof and use your thumper. I got 2800 for this so 2000 shouldn't be a problem. Here's another way that seems to be working for people, personally it didn't work for me:  RememberancePlay three different Echoes - 10 Simply play three different Echo levels and this achievement will unlock.  Old SchoolFinish an Echo round without executing a single Skillshot - 15 A really easy way to get this achievement is to select the Echo mission 'Downtown' and just sprint straight to the end. This takes less than 30 seconds and you don't have to kill a single enemy. Here's some videos:  EnforcerGet at least 15,000 points in one Echo round - 20 This will have to be done on on of the higher Echo levels. Remember you can change your gun whenever you want at a Dropkit. After you get all the Skill Kills you feel you can get with one weapon, change to the next and try with that. Keep in mind you have your thumper and environmental Skill Kills as well. Just do the above on a stage you feel comfortable with and you should be able to get this achievement pretty easily. Here's a video:  Guerrilla TacticsExecute at least 25 different Skillshots in one Echo round - 10 Once again you will need to do this on a higher level using all your guns and other Skill Kills. Again remember your thumper and the environmental Skill Kills and this achievement should be a breeze. Here's a few videos:  Shooting StarGet at least 1 star on each of the first 14 Echoes - 10 See 'Supernova'.  Halfway ThereGet at least 21 stars in Echoes Mode - 15 See 'Supernova'.  Star StruckGet 3 Stars on 10 different Echoes - 10 See 'Supernova'.  SupernovaGet 3 stars on each of the first 14 Echoes - 40 There are 14 Echo levels you need to get 3 stars on. Each one has a different point total neede to gain 3 stars. After you have finished the level it will tell you whether or not you got 3 starts, if not it will say next to the stars how much you missed by. As I have said a few times now switch your weapons use your thumper and the environment to get heaps of points. This achievement is pretty easy to get, just keep at it and you will have no problem. Here's some video's:  Bounty HunterHave a total of at least 75,000 points in Echoes Mode's total high score - 20 See 'Hoarder'.  HoarderHave a total of at least 150,000 points in Echoes Mode's total high score - 40 As you play through the Echoes your high score will accumulate to make a total high score. This achievement should unlock while going for Supernova. If not go back through some levels and try to improve on you high score, or if you have the DLC maps do them.

 Like a BossDefeat a miniboss in Anarchy mode - 5 Every now and again a mini-boss will appear in Anarchy mode. Kill him and this achievement will unlock.  Environment MasterPerform every Anarchy environmental Skillshot - 20 Here's a list of the required Skillshots needed: Power Plant: Ground Chuck - Fling an enemy into the Grinder on the Power Plant level. Turbine: Blood Bath - Toss an enemy into the Juicer on the Turbine level. Grand Central: Midnight Express - Kill an enemy by flinging them in the monorail's path on the Grand Central level. Make A Wish - Electrocute an enemy to death in the fountain on the Grand Central level. Meatspin - Propel an enemy into the revolving door on the Grand Central level. Flattery - Flatten an enemy with the elevators in the Grand Central level. Junkyard: Man Crush - Crush an enemy with the Smasher on the Junkyard level. Fish Chow - Send an enemy into the waterfall on the Junkyard level. Dead Rock: Not in Kansas - Fling an enemy into the tornado on the Dead Rock level. Nom Nom Nom - Feed an enemy to the dinosaur skull on the Dead Rock level. Waterworks: Blood Fountain - Push an enemy into the river on the Waterworks level. Royal Flush - Flush an enemy down the water tubes on the Waterworks level You can find a useful thread on how to easily get them here. Here's a video:  Team PlayerComplete 200 team challenges in your career in Anarchy mode - 10 At the end of each round when playing Anarchy there will be a team challenge. Just follow what it says to do on the screen and you will complete it. Do this 200 times for this achievement to unlock.  Anarchy MasterAchieve a score of at least 50,000 as a team in Anarchy mode - 30 To get this you will need 4 players and need to be on the last round of Anarchy (wave 20). Each player will need to have different guns than the others. Do as many Skill Kills as possible with both weapon, thumper and environmental. This will take some practice so you're definitely going to need to do this with friends or people from the achievement trading thread here. A two person method can be found here.  Final EchoAchieve level 65 in Anarchy mode - 40 To get this you must play multiplayer. This can be done in public or private matches, as for any other leveling up achievement you just have to keep playing it for it to unlock. You can find an easy way to rank up here.

You didn't post a level to this, as to like which act or chapter it is. Its kind of confusing not to know where the nom juice is if you don't specify. Just saying though, not to be rude. |

This is looking to be a fine guide and I can already see a few places it'll help me, shame I missed that headshot achievement as I was really going for them on shooter instinct. Glad I stopped before chapter 2 or else I'd of missed alot more. Thanks!
