Exploder enemy

[kdg977]

Looking to do the achievement if possible. Is Rob Boss the first one or is there an easier one?

The fairy in the forest zone is the first exploder, just remember to disable your idle attack or you will defeat it before it can blow up.
If you are already at beardverse you shouldn't even need to use block to survive the explosion.

Opps. I forgot that you can just enter a manual mode to disable idle attack and instead increased my HP to survive the fairy before I kill it.

I'm in the middle of a 'No Augment' challenge so not at full strength. The fairy attacked and I got the 'you are almost certainly dead' message. I was deeply concerned until she attacked again and I got the same message. (Seeing the icon for the Steam achievement pop also eased my concern.)

Exploders deal a high amount of damage but only compared to other enemies in the same zone or the zone after it, when you have adventure stats high enough to get to a much further zone you won't even notice your health going down at all (which is why the fairy makes it easy to get the achievement even quite early on).
