How to unlock the Emperor's Gauntlet achievement in Ben-Hur - Definitive Guide

This is cumulative across races, the game doesn't seem to register whip kills always. I did get the achievement in the middle of the race.

Wear them down by grinding your wheels on their horses, when they get down to about 10-20% health, come up next to them and keep whipping with left/right triggers.

And whip it, whip it real good!

Of note, this took way more than 5 to have it pop. Not sure if it is just delayed in popping or what, but I was easily at 10-15 whip kills when it finally popped.

I was beginning to think it was all 5 in a race before it unlocked. Maybe it doesn't count if you have to restart.

WTF is up with the achievement? I have whip killed like 30 times now and the achievement doesn't increment or register any.

NM, finally unlocked after restarting xbox and playing another round. If this sticks for you, I suggest restarting the xbox and play the first race again. Whip kill one chariot to unlock.

It took me way more than 5 kills to get this achievement too but I think it might of been because they don't count if you restart. This finally unlocked at the end of a race for me.

The hardest part about this achievement seems to be that it's nearly impossible to tell if the kill was done by ramming or by the whip. The whip only seems to hurt the horses so you have to pull ahead the same as a ram, but the whip has a range only slightly beyond the wheels on the chariot. I'd be willing to bet that all the whip kills we think we got were ram kills.

When you say across all races do you mean of one season or over any number of seasons?

EDIT: Don't worry this popped 3 minutes or so after messaging. It is accumulative across seasons and I believe whip kills are only saved upon winning the race. If you lose, I believe the kills are discounted.

Hard restarting my console definitely worked for me. I looked at my stats and had like 79 kills and had all other achievments, after restarting it unlocked on the very first race

As of today 29/9/2017 I can confirm dying or losing the match still counts with your whip kills. On my last enemy in third race I unlocked the first, 1 whip kill achievement. Then I was playing the first race, new season, over and over again, trying to get the 1st place without picking up health.

Unlocked for me after killing enemy during a match. This means that progress carries over even if you die/lose, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get it.

Hey guys, made a video guide for this achievement and the one achievement to get one whip kill. Hope this helps if you're having trouble.

Love to say this works for me but my health gets shredded any time I get close. Ii try leading the pack, and I try bringing up the rear, but I just get pinballed all over the place and struggle to even complete a lap after the first race

You might want to try playing not as aggressive. Stay along the out side and pick people off one at a time. Always play it safe and you should be able to get it. Good luck!

My mistake before this achievement popped, I was trying to whip every Chariot. Try whipping some on each level. If you follow that strategy eventually you will get it.smile

Fortunately this achievement is cumulative across all races. To unlock it, you must destroy enemy chariots with your whip attack a total of five times. Refer to "Gauntlet of Might" for more information about using your whip attack.

Note: This achievement might not track whip attack kills properly so just keep at it and it will eventually unlock.
