Score 4 Hits With One Grenade

[jbbuzz]

How should I do this or what weapon should I use to accomplish this? My S class multitool has most all of the upgrades. I thought I had done it a few times, but nothing seems to give me credit. I must be missing something.

At any Milestone waypoint where the Monsters are, Have you Plasma launcher equipped as the secondary weapon "locked and loaded" walk up to the "Call ship pillar" activate it: and a swarm of them green things will spawn..

Fire AT WILL!!!

Damn but my skins crawls just thinking of them thing.

use the nest purge milestones or crack a larve you collect on the ground. The insect queen lay 4 pup when yellow bar is down. shoot when they just pop. That how I completed that step.
Also, be sure to NOT have bounce stat in your module.

The plasma launcher must be loaded as secondary?

Yes.

Also, you get a bunch of opportunities to get that achievement, if you miss it with the initial attack, by just shooting the whispering eggs that are all around the base.
Just shoot one clump of eggs, and them immediately lob a grenade (NOT A PARALYSIS MORTAR) into the now spawning bugs. If you manage not to get the achievement, then just move to the next clump of eggs and repeat

Find a herd of animals, drop a food pellet, then blast them when they all come over to eat it. What I did.

That's what I did also; but it was accidental since at the time I was't trying to complete that stage.

Exactly what i did :-)

Thanks for all of your help. I guess my problem is with the weapon selection only, as I know the way to find, spot and trigger the spawn of creatures. I haven't yet had a chance to try any of the previous suggestions.

One other suggestion is that if you make a hole in the ground, and piss off animals and lure them to the small cave you made, try to get them this way too. I think small spaces can help you kill 4 at once.

Also side-note

Cloaking Device = good way to get the sound of the cloaking device "Stuck" until you realize the sound has been playing for over an hour and you hold the right mouse button down, to turn it off, and realize how quiet the game just got ;)
