Mr Pierce Pierce Bang Bang Achievement

[ttopp]

"Damage 5 enemies with the same shot using Valentine’s Piercing Shot ability."

This is the last non-hat-combo Achievement i am missing but i have a hard time finding 5 enemys in a row. Can someone suggest a level where this achievement can be staged or just let me know on wich level/difficulty you got the achievement?

[WiTh]

dont know what this level name is but i guess i would try it in second act and level with those only melee "prisoners" skeletons enemies. U know what i mean ?

[ttopp]

yeah i know what level you mean. i'll give it a try.

There are a few options for this one. You can use the mission in Act 3 where you are "trapped" in a room with spawning badguys and hope for a good vantage point (I did this for Sally's "Mad Dog" achievement). However, I believe I snagged this one on Act 2 in one of the missions where enemies will spawn if your alarm level is high enough. Remember that you don't need to win the match for the achievement to count, and also remember that if you screw up on one of your shots, you can use "quit" to revert back to the start of your most recent round of moves.

I got it in Outskirts, there are some rooms that have 5 guys when you open the door

Oh, and since nobody else has mentioned it... it's easier to get it on the highest difficulty, since more enemies will spawn there. And also, you don't need to get five enemies in a row - you can ricochet, after all, so several other possible configurations can serve also.

ok thanks for the answers. i figured out how this one can easily be staged. On the DLC level "the average escape" (i think that's what it's called) on elite difficulty, play through the leven until you are at the bottom of the right 'tower'. at that point i was already followed by a few melee reinforcements. if you are faster and there are no reinforcements yet just guard for a few turns i guess. open the door and inside will be 4 melee units (+ some turrets). retreat and let them follow you. once enough units are gathered, place ivanski in the middle and use his abs of steel ability. use your other units to destroy barrels that could block valentines line of sight. if you accedently kill an enemy with ricochets (like i did several times) just quit and reload. now all enemys will gather around invanski and make this one really easy.

I got it randomly without even trying

I got it on the Gat's items retrieval mission in the Outskirts. Get a fast character like Payroll to open up several rooms & bait the Scrappers into a chokepoint near the entrance. I ended up having six melee Scrappers swarm Billy & Payroll to get a clear shot on all of them with Valentine.

Old thread but I thought I'd add a note in case anyone was still having issues. I unintentionally had the achievement pop up the other day by using a burst sniper (scoped carrion) and Valentines penetrate ability against 2 trash mob scrappers. Looks like it might track how many hits are scored rather than the number of individual targets hit, 4 shots hitting 2 targets for 8 hits total.
