How to unlock the That Was Cold achievement in Borderlands 3 - Definitive Guide

Grenade got patched. Bummer.

So, this is a story related achievement. It's buggy for some people (like a lot of achievements), although it seems to be buggier in coop than in solo.

Good luck.

Not related to this achievement, but an important point about something around the same time as this achievement...

A story mission around this time is called Going Rogue. Once you've completed Going Rogue, you can complete a mission called Raiders of the Lost Rock. Do this mission.

DO NOT SELL THE GRENADE YOU GET FROM THE MISSION. You can't get it later.

The grenade is called the Porcelain Pipe Bomb, and a direct hit from it will pretty much eat through anything. It works really well on the boss at the end of Cold As The Grave.

Get the grenade. Melt enemies. Enjoy.

Story Related, Can't Be Missed

Glitch Note: The "Voracious Canopy" map is known to be unstable so make frequent save file backups whenever you're there but do note that the 1.07 patch has reduced the chances of crashes occurring in this map so install that before playing.

This trophy will pop after completing the mission "Lair of the Harpy", by giving Wainwright Jakobs his father's record.

Boss details:

The Warden - Fought during the mission "Hammerlocked":

The Warden has the following attacks:

Rockets
Ground Pound
Tink Spawns
Missiles
Evolution (more on that in a bit)

The Warden is one of the harder fights in the game but still nothing especially difficult if you have the right gear and stay aware of your surroundings. To complete the first phase of the fight, you will need a strong corrosive weapon to destroy his armour but watch out for the Rockets he fires and the Tinks that appear. Phase 2 is where things get interesting, because the Warden will become enraged, remove his helmet then start killing Tinks and evolving into various, before culminating in his ultimate "God-Liath" form. With each evolution, the Warden will become bigger, stronger and more powerful so keep moving around the arena and taking potshots at him whenever you can but remember to dodge his Rockets, Missiles and Ground Pound attacks. Once the Warden is toast, you can free Sir Hammerlock by shooting the glowing red hook that's keeping his cage attached to the crane above you.


Billy, The Anointed - Fought during the mission "Lair of the Harpy":

Billy, The Anointed has the following attacks:

Shockwave
Teleport
Skull Rockets
Tink Spawns

This fight is a lot easier now Billy's health has been reduced by the Oct 3rd, 2019 Hot Fix but he's still no pushover. The key to surviving this fight is to keep moving, jump over the Shockwaves that Billy fires off and shoot down his Skull Rockets whilst unloading your best Assault Rifle or SMG into his head. If Billy teleports, you need to quickly move in the opposite direction and avoid whatever attack he then lets off but always keep the Tinks in sight so you can kill one and get a second wind if needed. Once the fight is over, melee Billy then recover all the Eridium and loot from his shattered corpse.
