    Killed all gargoyles and gave their eggs to Eldric

  • How to unlock Exterminator

    This quest is a bit buggy in that the gargoyles on the Air Temple island sometimes spawn in mid-air, or don’t spawn at all. This is problematic in that you have to kill them all. When they spawn in mid-air, you can either shoot them with a musket or throw the Titan Harpoon at them. Sometimes the bug can be fixed by simply reloading, and sometimes not. I’d advise you to save before setting foot on the island, and to save frequently in a different slot after each kill.

    Once you've killed all the gargoyles on the Air Temple island, speak to Eldric on your ship and he'll tell you they've spread elsewhere across the seas. You have to then travel to each (non-DLC) island/location and talk to Eldric while in port; he will tell you whether or not there are more gargoyles/eggs in that location. Once you've killed them all and gotten their eggs, talk to him again and the achievement should pop.

    For reference, there are six locations you need to visit for this. They are:

    • Caldera (no gargoyles to kill/eggs to collect, but you have to talk to Eldric anyway)
    • Isle of the Dead (ditto)
    • Tacarigua (some gargoyles to kill/eggs to collect)
    • Maracai Bay (some gargoyles to kill/eggs to collect)
    • Sword Coast (some gargoyles to kill/eggs to collect)
    • Isle of Thieves (some gargoyles to kill/eggs to collect)

  • Spoiler Alert: After you visit and complete Storm Island, talk to Eldric. Visit each port. When you arrive at a destination, talk to Eldric first to find out if gargolyes are present. Follow advise. Return to ship talk to Eldric again and then go to next destination. Make sure you visit Isle of the Dead and Caldera. Although there are no gargoyles there they count toward the locations you need to explore.
