Pieces of Eight Achievement in LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean

    Reach 888,888,888 studs

     
  • How to unlock Pieces of Eight

    This would take a long time to reach if not for the stud multipliers obtained by buying certain red hats. To make this even faster you can have multiple multipliers turned on and their affect is cumulative. So if you have x2, x8 and x10 turned on you will have a total multiplier of x160. If you have them all on along with "Always Double Treasure" you will have over an x7000 multiplier and will reach the required total in no time.

    The red hats are found in the hub. See "You may throw my hat" for more information and a location guide.

  • fuck this !
  • So if I buy this, I'll need to dedicate all of my time way from Mortal Kombat, Portal 2, LA Noire, Brink, until Skryims release? Oh how I hate odd achievements.
  • quit you're whining! ;) won't be that hard once you whack all the x10, x8, x6, x4 & x2 cheats on.
  • Yer this is actually a pretty easy looking achievement with the extras
  • Yeah, so long as the suds multipliers are still in this game you only need to actually collect a bit more thann a ormal 230,000 studs. Considering how much this is worth that is surprisingly easy.
  • GG people bitching about lego achievements now Failtastic
  • This achievement is super easy...i got 1,700,000,000,000 studs in lego starwars3 could get to 1 zillion but that would take grinding. 900,000,000 is so easy aslong as there are multiplier exrtas on the other hand the one with no studs in a level (thats crazy)well have to wait and see
  • As said above - shouldn't be too hard to get with the extras. However it's a blooming odd achievement!?!
  • AwSOME
  • Enter the passwords for the multiplier extras and you'll get the achievement in about 4 or 5 levels.
  • #7 You know how easy it is to commit suicide and keep losing studs over and over? Lol.
  • how can we ever get an amount of studs ending on an eight? isn't the smallest stud worth 10? or did they create a stud i don't know about?
  • #8 The achievement requires 888,888,888 or 9 8's a.k.a. 9 Pieces of Eight
  • #7 1 zillion is not a real number
  • @14 Sadly, WhiteClaudia is right. It's not a real number.
  • #9, you ruined the process.
  • ok guy way to point out me making no sense, must not have been thinking... @11 yes thanks, wouldn't have thought of that, as easy as it is @14 wow this was real dumb of me "1 quadrillion"
  • Does it have to be 888,888,888 exactly because it is 88G. If it was just get over that number then it would be to easy and only 8G. On indiana jones it maxed at 4billion so this achoevement is is really easy.
  • @15 youre right about @14 being right about @7 being wrong.. :)
  • @15 youre right about @14 being right about @7 being wrong.. :)
  • So non of you are ever mistaken... here are all the names.. ;) Million Billion Trillion Quadrillion Quintillion Sextillion Septillion Octillion Nonillion Decillion Undecillion Duodecillion Tredecillion Quattuordecillion Quindecillion (Quinquadecillion) Sexdecillion (Sedecillion) Septendecillion Octodecillion Novemdecillion (Novendecillion) Vigintillion Centillion
  • May I add a googol to the mix - 10 to the power of 100 or 1 followed by 100 zeros in layman's terms! That would take commitment - even with multipliers.
  • Epic! Thats alot of peices of eight, and i thought there were only nine!
  • Cool movie tie in name for this one.
  • @22 let's not give them any ideas... haha
  • @14 It is now, lol. I heard it was added to the dictionary on the news around a month ago.
  • @18, Most likely you won't have to get 888,888,888 exact It's a LEGO game = easy achievements = they won't do anything like that
  • Awesome posts, guys. First, people complaining about the studs achievement when anyone who's every played a Lego game would know that there's a stud achievement in every game but every game also has cheats for you to earn that don't disable achievements to help you, and second, arguing that a zillion isn't a real number (which I didn't know before, thanks guys!).
  • this is super easy :)
  • its easy just had this in one level with extra's on starwars 3.. ;)
  • @7 You almost got 2 trillion studs? I call bullshit. Drop the 1 and I will believe it.
  • ok
  • @31 I know i'm late but whatever, I don't know if it was just me but when ever i blew up a ship with multipliers on i would get like 250,000,000/ship
  • There is a spot where you can get an Infinite amount of studs. In Port Royal when you get to the beach, go to the far left to find a pile of blocks that build a sand castle. build it then destroy it then build it again and keep destroying it. the first two times you build it you get studs and each time you destroy it you get studs.
  • How du youbget the multipliers on?
  • i think i found an 8
  • With all the multipliers on, I got over 888,888,888 studs in just level 1-3 without really trying.
  • @37 would you mind sharing the codes...
  • @38 I just unlocked all the multipliers through normal game play - no codes used!
  • There are no codes for the multipliers You must buy all red hats that give you multiplier, and then you receive a huge load of studs With every multiplier turned on, I got 650 million on the very first level
  • What are you guys complaining about? Once you buy all of the multipliers, you'll be getting 1 billion studs a level.
  • i have noticed well i think it works like this that if you turn them on in a certian way you get higher muiltipliers i got i muiltiplier of around 7860 no cheats or anything
  • Am I the only one who can't unlock the stupid x8 red hat? I SEE where the red arrow is pointing, and I am standing where the crate o bunnies used to be before i smashed it, and now there is nothing there but the red flashy arrow. I have reset, I just can't get this stupid multiplier! #43, there ARE no codes to get the red hats, otherwise I would have just used the damn code!
  • Easy
  • I don't know if this will help but what i did was i got up to story 4 and then i bought the red hat x2 then did those levels and got true pirate on them then i did port royal other and other again getting loads of money then i bought x10 then did port royal again a few times and bout all other score multipliers and then i all i did was just smashed stuff at the hub took me about and hour to do :) hope this helps !!! :)
  • love the gamerscore number, something else for a change :)
  • Ok for those of you that have whine and carried on shut up Pause the gamae go to extra's and on the following Character Studs Stud Magaent Treasure alway's Double Treasure x2 Treasure x4 Treasure x6 Treasure x8 Treasure x10 You get it in no time flat and also DON"T FOLLOW THE IGN ONE
  • You don't have to land on 888,888,888 exactly. You jst have to get up to that amount.
  • I NEED THE ALL THE UNLOCK CODES BEFORE I BUY THIS GAME also, is this game worth it for Achievements?
  • Hey jags they aren't bitching about how much they need to collect but that they felt the need to mess up the achievements by putting two in that don't end in 0 or 5... Hence why all the comments were about odd achievement numbers learn to read it's an amazing skill. Anyone that plays lego games will know how to get it and how easy it is that's not the issue, the issue is it's bullshit that they took 2 points from this and tacked in on something else just to be "clever" or whatever
  • If you have all of the stud multipliers on at once it's easy....took me less than 15minutes!
  • I really do not see what the problem is with getting this one. I always focus on buying the multipliers first before any of the other 'extras'. I had this achievement shortly after getting access to Blackbeard!!
  • I got this in ONE level!
  • With the treasure multipliers, its a very, simple and quick achievement!
