"Hit me daddy"

[cushee_foofee]

So I got my drone to use bodyguard and sit next to me, while also targetting weakest.

I got my drone an early armor full gun for the bodyguard to give me some armor.

I got some armor and health augments for my own gun, turned off auto fire, and let Splitserpent hit me at least 10, maybe even 12 times.

Did not get the achievement. Perhaps a small enemy hit me instead, just checking if anyone else managed to get the achievement.

Didn't expect it to be so difficult. Splitserpent just dies too quickly, or I die before all hits.

Before I waste any more time, I just wanted to check it wasn't bugged.

Edit:

Alright, I ended up EASILY getting the mission after they patched it to work, and I also realized that the pistol is better for getting augments faster at start.

Drone:

Get a level 1 pulse rifle for the drone (Very high potential DPS in terms of crowd control, but low single target DPS).

Make the drone do a long circle around you, and have them target weakest enemies.

Weapon:

Pistol for faster augments, get the first two of guarded grip, get weighted stock, first of split magazine, ammo rack -> relativistic reloader, first level of turret placer.

Spawn:

Go to the pleasant grove spawn point. Stronger enemies drop more EXP for faster levels. Also, there's almost always a shield/armor ritual there for an extra 6 armor for 3 minutes!

Result:

The slimes and snakes will just do 1 damage to you at that point, meaning you can ignore them and just hug splitserpent.

I have been lost in the sauce so much that I forgot I was farming in the elite area.

After I go eepy~ I will try this mission again, but in the normal spawn area, and see if I can do it then.

Yeah achievements that make you actively grief your run are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid

Well, it's at the start, so that's not too bad, but the fact that it's so difficult is still annoying. And by difficult, I mean small enemies can steal hits from the boss, the boss has too long of an attack cooldown for such a specific achievement, and the boss dies so quickly.

There's a charger achievemnt like that, too

Alright, so I finally got around to trying to get this achievement again.

Ouch. Rose tinted glasses sure were ripped off. Too many enemies swarm and damage me that I can't have splitserpent do damage. If I shoot the enemies near the boss, then the boss gets killed quickly.

The only good option is to do the ritual to get armor. Only issue is that I did it 10 times and got so many cool and amazing damage dealing bonuses to quickly kill splitserpent, and, well, 0 armor to tank hits for the achievement...

Call it cope, but I think this achievement might be impossible right now.

[Vespertellino]

Not only it's nigh impossible, it's dumb that it exists at all

If it was just an achievement alone, okay MAYBE I could be fine. BUT TO LOCK AN AUGMENT BEHIND IT?!?!

[Vespertellino]

yeah that's fair

I think to possibly get this challenge done you need to deploy in one of the hard zones so you can level quickly and pray to rngjesus that you get get all +armor augments/tunes then equip this weapon to your drone, then run again with bodyguard enabled to get the armor from the drone while praying again to rngjesus to get +armor and +max health on all your levels leading up to the boss.

It also might not be possible until endgame when you've got the maximum number of max health + regen genes slotted.

But yeah, this is one of a few challenges that requires a bit too much finesse + RNG currently. Best to just wait until it is inevitably adjusted because this along with a couple others don't really work in the current state of the game.

I'm guessing once the gene stuff is fixed/updated these will be a lot easier to complete.

I actually have an exp farming route, and I used that to get a lot of armor and health.

If I have bodyguard drone, then it kills the boss too quickly before I can get all the hits and heal up with medktis.

Health regen is too slow to matter at that early of the game.

I noticed the ritual at the bottom of the map seems to do defense more often when I was doing other runs, so i might try that one.

My point is you need to use a bodyguard drone with a weak weapon, then set it to target the weakest enemies so it doesn't shoot the boss.
I'm not sure what the weakest weapon would be but I'm thinking shotgun.

Yeah but the drone has to be on top of you while you get hit to give you armor, it needs armor upgrades (which mostly improve DPS), and shotgun does a lot of damage close range (Which the boss should be on top of you to hit you).

Good point.

With what i have unlocked, I think rocket launcher is probably the lowest single target damage.

[cushee_foofee]

So I tried using the pistol as it gets augments faster, got amazing armor and even counted the hits.

I might be coping but I really want the devs to test getting hit to see if the achievement actually works.
