How to unlock the Don't Be a Stranger achievement in Borderlands 3 - Definitive Guide

Near the end of the One Man's Treasure quest that takes you through Trashlantis, the Clapstructor will fuse into the weld at the girder, but will still be alive. Once no one else is talking and you have been tasked with returning to the Mayor, don't leave the area. Instead go to where the Clapstructor is now and press X to talk to it, unlocking the achievement.

Note: It isn't missable and you'd only have to return to where you leave the Clapstructor to get it later, but it's much simpler to get it right then without any later revisiting.

I haven't done so, but if you miss this are you f**ked for the entire playthrough? Very stupid if so.

I think you can go back again whenever you want. The described way is just the earliest and quickest opportunity.

Which map, what area...? These should be included in the solution. I didn't do this on the first play through and am now going back.......... Back to where, I sit here and think. I didn't pay much attention to the story as I had no sound, (amp in repair) so where do i find him...????

@Major Berga Well there is only one mission with the clapstructor. And its a main mission. Should be self explained.

Trashlantis. Sorry, I figured if you had done the quest you knew where you were going as this isn't possible before doing/finishing the quest. I have amended the guide.

Hey. This is bugged for me too. Although i noticed people in the comments have had issues and then eventually got it. What was it you guys done to get it to pop? EDIT: going into someone elses lobby and trying it with a diffrent character got it to pop for me.

Again, this is easiest to pop while following the DLC campaign, just remember to talk to Clapstructor after it's fused to the wall and the campaign dialogue is over.

However, if you missed the opportunity no fear!
Simply load up -> The Handsome Jackpot -> The Compactor -> Fast Travel station: Trashlantis (center of map)

Then just run all the way to the most northern center part of the map. Pretty much directly north from the Fast Travel station. You will see Clapstructor fused into the wall, just hit cn_X to talk and the achievement will pop.

(For me it popped immediately as I spoke to Clap. Some earlier reports suggest it's bugged but I had no problem.)

This is a fairly easy achievement to obtain.

While you are doing the quest in Trashlantis to guide the Clapstructor to the steel beam, it will eventually end with the Clapstructor becoming one with the steel beam. BEFORE leaving to return to the Mayor, talk to the Clapstructor. All the achievement requires is to talk to the Clapstructor once.

If you forget and wander off, you can always return to this area later.

The Clapstructor is located here:
 

 
After the Clapstructor has sacrificed himself for the good of Trashlantis, instead of returning to the Mayor, you should turn around and talk to him to pop the trophy. If you happen to forget to do this the first time around, you can come back later on and he will still be there.

Zhelezostroy is located here:



After Zhelezostroy sacrifices himself for the good of Musoroantlantis, instead of returning to the mayor, you should turn back and talk to Zhelezostroy to receive the trophy. However, if you accidentally missed it, don’t worry, it is available for visiting after the mission and will be waiting for you in the same place.
