Introduction
Hello, and welcome to my achievement walkthrough for The Good, The Bad, and The Augmented! I made this as a way for people who want to 100% the DLC to get through it as easily and painless as possible.

  • Estimated difficulty: 4/10.

  • Estimated 100% time: ~3-5 hours (luck dependent).

  • Offline/online achievements: 10 offline / 0 online.

  • Number of playthroughs: 1 minimum + clean up runs.

  • Glitched achievements: None that I'm aware of.
One-Armed Bandit
Cut 42 arms in the Testing Chamber.
Going almost exclusively for arms, I unlocked this early into episode 5.
There are also a lot of armor sets to craft in this DLC so this will more than likely come through natural grinding progression.
Modus Operandi
Finished an episode with the 4 hardest modifiers turned on.
This achievement is actually not as hard as it sounds. I suggest attempting it on episode 1 as it is the easiest to handle and speed through, especially if you fail.

First, you will need to equip the following modifiers:

  • Leech - player and enemies steal each other's life. no injectable use.
  • Rush Hour - a timer is set on Warren's life. successful kills buy him more time.
  • Epicenter - every once in a while, a flame pit opens up right below Warren.
  • Black Belt - dispense pain with your bare fists. hitting armored body parts will wound you.



    Do your best to stay mobile and not get hit too much. Dealing damage is your only way of healing.

    The timer you really shouldn't have to worry about. Speeding through and killing only who I had to, I entered the boss with almost 4 minutes on the clock.

    The flame circle is on a short timer, but you can use it to damage enemies (helpful against the boss.)

    You will be unarmed but your fists do a lot of damage, hit very fast, and have decent stun. Outside of the boss, always aim for unarmored body parts.

    The boss is the trickiest part of this, since he's fully armored. I suggest switching out any injectable mods you have for things that increase drone damage (or add stun) as I found those to be extremely helpful in reducing how much damage I received and leaving the boss open for a beating.
Episodic
Finished every episode.
This will unlock once you clear all 9 episodes in the Testing Chamber.

Suited and Booted
Crafted all Frontier Gear sets.
You must obtain all 6 armor schematics from the DLC, then craft them at the gear station.

What makes this achievement a little annoying is the rare sets from bosses. They are a little RNG dependent, as what piece you get is random. You have a higher chance when using modifiers.
The 3 I ran were Rush Hour, Epicenter, and Black Belt for a very high drop rate. I also rushed through the first 3 episodes as they were the easiest to do so on.

  • Spirit Animal - Can be farmed from enemies wearing this, or Totem Wolf.
  • Westwolf - Rare drop from Totem Wolf.

  • Stealthy Assassin - Can be farmed from enemies wearing this, or Undertaker.
  • Secret Assassin - Rare drop from Undertaker.

  • Angel of Death - Can be farmed from enemies wearing this, La Muerte.
  • Grim Fashion - Rare drop from La Muerte.
Tools of War
Collected all Frontier Weapons.
You must collect all 15 weapons from the DLC.


  • Pattern 20XX Infantry Rifle - Totem Wolf boss.
  • Pattern 30XX Infantry Rifle - Totem Wolf boss.
  • Golden Infantry Rifle - Lactose Tolerant challenge modifier.

  • Grim Ravager - La Muerte boss, Undertaker boss or regular enemies.
  • Grim Marauder - La Muerte boss or Undertaker boss.
  • Golden Marauder - Combo Maker challenge modifier.

  • B0-W1E Twin Blades - La Muerte boss.
  • B0-W1E Twin Blades Deluxe Edition - La Muerte boss.
  • Golden Twin Blades - Arms Race challenge modifier.

  • Tamahaac - Totem Wolf boss and regular enemies.

Late-ish to the party, but you can target the boss without targeting a specific body part to get around the limitations of the Black Belt modifier.
