CLAP-TRAP SDU ACHIEVEMENT

[BuGm4n404]

I only need one more SDU to unlock this achievement, but it simply refuses to drop. I've seen some poeple saing that if I have finished the PT2 then it will be nearly impossible to get the last SDU ( The reason? I have no idea). I'll have to iniciate a new campaing with a new character to unlock some specific achievement, is it better to restart the progress?

The claptraps in playthrough 2 don't always reward you with the SDU but you can increase the chances with having a full inventory. If you've got empty slots then they will probably give you a grenade mod instead.

I take it that with you only having 1 more to get that means that you've got the 10 in the main game and the 3 spread across the DLCs in playthrough 1. I have seen it mentioned that if you've unlocked the mission in playthrough 2 that it won't complete properly in playthrough 1 if you go back to it but I've not put that to the test.

The way that I did it was that I got all 13 claptraps in playthrough 1 and then made sure that I had a full inventory when I picked up the mission in playthrough 2.

Wait, isn't the achievement triggered when you get 10 of them? It's not 42 bonus slots it's just getting to 42.

Which claptrap repair missions have you completed in playthrough 1 and 2?

I've finished all the missions in the main campaing in the TP1 and almost every single one of the TP2. The achievement asks for 42 slots but I have next to 38 ( I dont remind exactly)

If you've done all of the claptrap repair missions in playthrough 1 in the main game then you'd have 42 slots as there are 10 of them each giving 3 extra slots. 30+12=42.

If you did any of the missions in playthrough 2 before you did it in playthrough 1 then I have read that you won't get the SDU expansion even from the playthrough 1 version of the mission so when you do the missions is important. You can make it more likely that the playthrough 2 version of the mission will give you an expansion if you have a full inventory when you pick up the mission (but it's still not certain).

There's a good guide here: https://borderlands.fandom.com/wiki/Claptrap_Rescue_missions

If you have any claptrap missions that you have not done in playthrough 1 do them first and you will get an expansion pack. Stay out of playthrough 2 until you have got all of the claptraps in playthrough 1 including the 3 DLC claptraps.
