"Why am I even doing this" Achievement

[Tzevaot]

Does anyone know how to unlock this? It's a hidden achievement and gives no information on what to do to unlock it.

Set weapons to 1
Equip thorn
Kill everything including the first boss

Ignore all +health stuff - your HP is fixed at 1

Tricky but very doable.

Ignore all +defense stuff too or just health?

[S'bass thulu]

"Killed everything" ... like up through C? That doesn't make sense cause you say the first boss... but I feel like I've done the rest a few times now. Regular mode and survival.

[m]

Sorry for not being clear.

F level.
Survivors mode
Challenges
Glass Bone

As I said, set wepons to 1, choose Thorn as talent.

Your HP is fixed at 1, so one hit = dead.

You need to survive until the Boss appears AND kill the Boss.

I can't recall about +def, but movement speed was handy.

Haven't got it yet, but it's fun... thanks for the lead.

PS take Duellist as their cheat death power still works. Though you need Troll blood to raise raise health to 2.

[S'bass thulu]

Wise. Got it sorted here. Grateful to getting it done in .09 vs .10 good luck all.

Take Troll Blood First
Take Troll Blood First
Take Troll Blood First
That's All!

I don't see how that can help. Your HP in this challenge is fixed at 1, so Troll Blood would make it 2 - and a single hit will still kill you.

[S'bass thulu]

Yeah it's fine without/makes no sense with troll blood, just give Rog at least a four count between hitting something, focus on getting thorn leveled... then it get's easier once you have a projectile and can keep building defense.

If you are lucky and get a ascended early you can get a thorns firework via rarity reroll which helps greatly as well.

Duellist has the death door ability where if you more than 1 hitpoint you survive fatal damage with 1 hitpoint and go invincible for 1 second but cant regen health for 3 seconds.

That an extra layer of protection if you having trouble. Though it unlikely to be needed with thorns talent.

[S'bass thulu]

nice tip though

I know I'm late to the party, but there are two things one can do to make getting this achievement even easier. Include in your passive talents the Explosive Vial and the Pike talent.

Explosive Vial passive makes the potions that make enemies explode on death drop much more frequently and causes its duration to double (from 30 seconds to 60 seconds).

The Pike passive causes a cone of damage to shoot out behind enemies you kill.

Both those combined means when you kill one enemy with thorns, a chain reaction of explosions happens behind it, often clearing the screen. They are passive talents so do not count as a weapon. Add in sage leaf, trolls blood, and be a dualist, and you can go a decent distance into survival with this (I finally stopped moving and let things kill me when the second boss spawned, much farther than is needed for this achievement). And of course once you level up thorns enough that it gains projectiles, it all snowballs from there.

Not really sure how this worked out, halfway to infinity I stopped trying to survive but I had somehow achieved immortality?

Decided to ride it out to the end and somehow was able to kill everything up to(and even some after?!) the "infinity" part started. I did get the achievement though which I was a bit worried about, I did not dare pick the evolution in case that would have counted as another weapon or something.
