How to unlock the Cute Loot achievement in Borderlands 2 - Definitive Guide

You can get this in Single Player or Co-op. This achievement only counts for the player that killed the chubby so you will have to find another chubby if your friend wants the achievement too! (Playing with friends will increase your chances of finding Chubbies.)
Chubby enemies are a cute and fat version of normal enemies.

These are the types of chubbies;
*Skag - Three Horns, The Dust, Tundra Express, Wildlife Exploitation Preserve, Eridium Blight, Arid Nexus - Badlands, Arid Nexus - Boneyard.
*Spiderant - Frostburn Canyon, The Dust, Caustic Caverns.
*Varkid - Caustic Caverns, Tundra Express.
*Stalker - The Highlands, The Fridge, Wildlife Exploitation Preserve.
*Midget - Southern Shelf, Three Horns, Southpaw, Frostburn Canyon, The Dust, Bloodshot Stronghold, Bloodshot Ramparts, Tundra Express, The Fridge, Thousand Cuts, Lynchwood, Sawtooth Cauldron.
*Rakk - In the sky, Torgue DLC - Southern Race Way side quest "Gas Guzzlers".
The text will say "Chubby" in front of these names. Make sure you read it before killing with your gun. Chubby can be found all around Pandora, but there are a few spots they are known to show up.

Note when going for chubby varkids;
*YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTILL THEY EVOLVE! Hatch from their pod.
*Put alittle fire damage on a small varkid for it to evolve into a pod let a varkid go into an adult pod and then a bad ass pod. It will either spawn as a Badass Varkid or a Chubby Varkid.

For a list on the known locations;

*Caustic Caverns

Chubbies can spawn inside the Caustic Caverns. This is where I found mine! I found the Varkid chubby in the "Infested Warehouse" area. You might have to put a little fire damage on a small varkid for it to evolve into a pod let a varkid go into an adult pod and then a bad ass pod. It will either spawn as a Badass Varkid or a Chubby Varkid. I did this with my boyfriend in Co-Op 2 player. I later found 3 Chubby Varkids in the Casustic Caverns all in different areas when finding the Minecraft easter egg. All my friends in Co-op 3 player got this achievement one chubby each. We found Bunny Rockets that one looted.

Watch the video it will show you in the beginning of the level, this is where PowerPyx got his by one of them coming out of the dump truck. The Truck will shake a few times when they are about to come out sometimes it's a Badass Varkid so be careful! You can also get this in True Vault Hunter Mode I think it increases your chances since you are on a higher difficulty.

Thanks for PowerPyx for video Leave a Like:

*Sounthern Raceway Mister Torgue's Campaign of Carnage DLC

Sir Hammerlock gives you a side mission called "Gas Guzzlers" he asks you to go kill 10 Rakks in the Southern Raceway area. The quest marker will lead you right there just look in the sky and you will see one. (Increases your chance of finding one with friends playing the DLC)

*Tundra Express

I would suggest traveling to the Farm but any area with varkids will work in the Tundra Express. You'll have to wait until the varkid pods evolve/hatch. (Kind of like a Pokemon) They will keep evolving just damage them a little bit with the Watermelon fires or use a fire gun that doesn't do a whole lot of damage. This will make them transform even faster. Be careful though because you could make them into badass Varkids or even the Mighty Vermivorous Invincible. But mostly need four people to do that for him to show up and beat him. If you don't see a chubby just rinse and repeat it again.


*Underground area's of Frostburn Canyon

Blacktoe Cavern is where you'll find a Chubbie Spiderant it spawns in the Cavern after you pass some white snow like water, run past it up alittle cavern hill and a couple spiders will be here and the Chubbie can spawn here he's fat and yellow looking. But try to aim for his back you might get a better loot for a critical.

*The Dust

By Ellie's Garage in the piles of Car Parts. Where the Spiderants that come up from the ground. Should be Brown and Yellow also fat.

*Slaughter Dome

Midget Chubbie can spawn here it's very rare not sure where in the Slaughter Dome but maybe playing it a couple times since you have to beat 5 Rounds of it, he might appear.

*Three Horns Valley

You can check in this spot by the pig motel. A Skag Chubbie might appear here. When you pick up one of the parts to restore the power for a side mission.
-Slightly to the south east of the bandit docks "Split Skull Bay", where the huge pump is located chubbies can spawn here.

*Wildlife Preservation

There is a Skag Chubby somewhere on this map when you are doing the story mission for Mordecai called "Wildlife Preservation" or just going back in free play of course. But it has to be done during the day! Better chance of finding one during the day in 4 player Co-op.

I think ...... been a while so might be wrong but there were guaranteed chubby spawns in one of the headhunter packs ..... think it's a halloween themed one. Installing the game and patches so can't check it right now.

I found a chubby spiderant over near Herbert's place in the Pirate's Booty DLC as well. That's where I got the achievement last night.

A lot of chubbies spawned in Natural Selection Annex for me. I killed chubby variants of Spiderants, Rakks and Skags for sure. There were 2-3 of each within the five rounds. There's also a guaranteed (or close to it) chubby Rakk spawn in the Torgue DLC mission Gas Guzzler.

This guide might not be as detailed as the other one O_o but its a pretty good tip. While i was playing the DLC campaign mr torgues campaign of carnage, there was a side mission called Gas Guzzler. When i did the mission TWO chubby rakks spawned where the mission's objective takes place. Online i saw it was common for 1 to spawn.

I think at least one chubby is guaranteed in that mission, I even had four now on the xbox one. On all my playthroughs on the 360, there were always chubbys around in that mission.

I really enjoy BL2, Ive played it on multiple systems now, and from my experiences, to get this achievem....er...trophy, its totally random. Dont even worry about it, a Chubby will eventually appear. BUT, One thing Ive noticed though is, they usually appear when a lot of bad asses are around.

Skags, rakk, spiderants, varkids, stalkers, midgets, and skeletons(DLC). Are all variants of the chubby you may encounter. You will recognize them immediately as they are much CHUBBIER than their brother-en.

Note: Chubby enemies have a higher health and strength, as well as high experience and loot output upon death.

Chubby can be found all around Pandora, but there's two good spots you're guaranteed to find one and that is in the starting area of the Caustic Caverns (Cubby Vakid) & the Wildlife Exploration Preserve (Cubby Stalker). It has a fixed spawn point where the first group of enemies are located, right next to the fast travel stations. So you can back out to the main menu and hit continue to make all enemies respawn but take note they're ultra rare, so it may take some time. A Chubby is not a normal enemy, he's a variation of an enemy type, so - Varkid, Spiderant, Skag, Stalker, Midget and Rakk. 

For a list of other known locations, please see below.

  • Blake Bridge
  • Underground area's of Frostburn Canyon
  • The Dust
  • Firestone
  • Slaughter Dome

I was somehow unlucky enough to meet such an enemy when I arrived, so I had to farm. And the most suitable way for me turned out to be catching Chubby’s respawn in Caustic Caverns near the teleport itself. You open the door and look to see if Chubby is crawling nearby or if someone is rummaging around in the truck. It happened about 15 times. By the way, I included 2 players to increase the chance of a fly appearing)

On 15 visits he didn’t appear at the teleport, so I decided to just run through the location, I found him in one of the trucks) I understand that he has 100% spawn in this location. Personally, it seemed to me that it would be faster and easier to go through the location than to load constantly

I don't know how much this will help, but they gave me a trophy for killing a chubby rakk in the refrigerator.

it can be any mob (crayfish, skag, beetle), etc. I had a skag, then I saw the fat Rakka rolling along the eridium. When you go through everything and beat everyone, consider the plot to drop.

I've already been running around different locations, but the chubby ones haven't spawned anywhere. I found out that in the add-on "Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage", there is a location "Southern Raceway", which you find yourself in according to the plot, and Chubby Rakks spawn in it. In general, they are not considered those plump mobs, they do not drop rare guns, but they count towards the trophy, and that’s enough for us. On my first visit to this location I found a plump Rakk and received a trophy. To be more sure, I even re-entered the game three more times and each time there were three slagged and one plump Rakk.
Drive along the road and turn left to the donut that is on the map.

It seemed to me that the easiest way to find him is in Caustic Caverns (Caustic Caves) near the teleport, open the door and check if Chubby is crawling between two trucks, and also check if anyone is rummaging around in the trucks, if not, then restart. I managed to find it on the 23rd try. As I understand it, the number of people in a co-op increases the chance of its spawning.

The achievement can be obtained in the DLC: Mister Torgue's Campaign of Carnage by completing one of the side missions.
