How to unlock the Exoarchaeolo—You Get The Gist achievement in Borderlands 3 - Definitive Guide

This is the easiest "discover all named locations" cheevo in BL3.

I would highly recommend to unlock most of the locations while your first playthrough since you're always near those locations while doing the main mission.

You can also do this after you beat the game. To get this achievement easier, don't turn Mayhem Mode / True Hunter Mode on, just to get it rushed.

There is a location you can't unlock without doing a particular side mission.


I added a list of all those locations in Nekrotafeyo.

If you have trouble to unlock this achievement while you're playing co-op, try to do it solo. Breakingbrie and One Eyes Tigh (from the other guide, check it out!) pointed out that it didn't work for them going while playing with someone else. Thanks and credits to them for this information!

Sorry to hear that! I would recommend you just to go to all the places you've been, just to make sure

do you unlock this area as part of the main quest? Once you unlocked you can go back to other planets and unlock all the areas?

@InugamiTheHound yes! You have to proceed through the story and towards the end you're discovering the planet called "Nekrotafeyo".

Hopefully someone will find a way to get it to pop (or it’s patched) so we don’t have to do brand new playthroughs...

To everybody who hasn't unlocked the achievement yet: Go to all the locations again and look out for the prompt. If it shows up, then go to the other location. If all the prompts show up and you don't get the achievement try and soft reset your xbox or delete the cache.

@Nxbi: Um... did this work for you? Or was it merely a suggestion? Because I've tried Hard resetting, and clearing cache, and no achievement(s). The recent update bugged the location achievements and trophies. Apparently if you use mayhem, travel to sanctuary, or quit the game it will reset progress. I've seen lots of people on all platforms comment and say that rediscovering all locations in one sitting will unlock the cheevs.

@z RagnaroK z I did it without problems. And in addition to that I didn't enter Mayhem mode because it was easier for me without all the trouble. I would try and do it like you just said. Quit the game, start it again and re-visit the locations. It may be annoying but at the end it should work. Sad to hear that many people have problems with this achievement since recent updates but people are still unlocking this specific achievement. I hope y'all can complete the game soon!

@nxbl yeah but you was a host or doing it by yourself or 2019 wasn't bugged. Yeah guys presume this is a current bug as i have found all 27 locations as of today, It probably was broken with their last hotfixes. I shall keep you guys posted with any news.
*Edit
So if you played the game through on CO-OP but you WAS NOT THE HOST you will need to rediscover all locations again on those area's need them chevio's. I hoped this helps anyone.

My husband and I just ran straight through every location on the entire planet of Nekrotafeyo on co-op and neither of us got it to pop. All in one sitting with no changing any settings. I suppose next is to Run through it solo each to see if we can pop it. This game is a mess of glitches.

Just competed the requirements, but achievement did not unlock. I see no one else has unlocked it in the last 24 hours. As a new update for some special event just dropped, I suspect therein lies the problem. Hope they fix it soon, as this was to be my first letter in the current TA hangman challenge. I'm pissed. (not the drunk pissed, the angry pissed angry

This is a companion to the guide already listed here, which gives you accurate locations and names. I suggest using it to try to get the achievement. But if you encounter an issue, like I did, try this:

I had discovered all of them through a combination of solo and co-op, but no achievement. I noticed that some areas I had been to before in co-op would come up as “discovered” and others were “entering,” implying that only the solo ones had counted. So I went through and used the above guide to check off each one as I went, but did it across two sessions. No achievement. On a hunch, I went through all of Nekrotafeyo’s named locales in one sitting, and it finally popped. So if you’re having trouble, this might work for you.

To find out how many locations you have collected and where you lost the missing ones, on the panel of planets or a specific location you need to click (left stick)
