Up To The Task achievement...
...would like some clarification here, since I have yet to find a simple complete list of all challenges required for this cheevo.

If a challenge ends with "Completed (X) Times", then it is NOT required for Up To The Task, since it's repeatable, and according to the achievement description, only NON-repeating challenges apply. Is this correct? Or are there some repeating challenges that are required as well?

For example, I noticed a guide saying there are two challenges for pulling cars out of the sand with the Harpoon...but one is repeatable, and one is not (5 cars and 1 car, respectively). The guide clearly states that BOTH are required for Up to the Task...is the author mistaken?

PLUS I was curious about Through The Eye Of The Needle...is it required?

Thanks

Might also mean "do all challenges at least once". I don't remember how i got it 2 years ago :(

Just keep ploughing on, and Through the Eye of the Needle is required, I'm pretty sure about that one.

Somebody compiled one. And, I think there might be others too.

Thanks for your replies. Yea, I saw that guide, but it still leaves me with some questions. The guide never mentions the "Through The Eye Of The Needle" challenge....yet most everyone I talk to says it IS a requirement for the Up To The Task achievement. So I was looking for some kind of confirmation...yes or no. "Cuz that particular challenge is proving to be...challenging...for me. Gotta wait for a storm to hit, then somehow make it to a jump-spot that could get me 3 seconds air time...not able to do it even once so far, let alone twice.

"Through the Eye of the Needle - Perform a 3 second jump while in a storm, 2 times - Repeatable
The best place to do this will be one cliff located in the mountains around the Proving Grounds camp in Gutgash's territory (see the map above for the location I suggest). Drive there as fast as possible if you should encounter a storm in Gutgash's territory. You can also get it in the permanent storms in the Big Nothing. See map for the location I suggest."

lol...it's funny you mentioned those two guides...they are the same two that I have "Favorited" for this game. So yea, they're helpful...but I even contacted the author of one of the guides, and he couldn't confirm whether Eye was required (been too long since he played, so he couldn't recall). But w/e...I'll just keep banging and I should get it one way or the other.
Thanks for your response :freebeer:
