See this page for a list of all the missions: Borderlands Wikia - Arid Badlands Missions
There are 23 main missions and 21 side missions in the Arid Badlands. Most main missions are given by the following characters: the Guardian Angel, Claptrap, Dr Zed, T.K Baha, Shep Sanders and Scooter. While most side missions can be found at the Bounty Board, you will meet all characters by simply playing the main story missions. You will also get introduced to the Bounty Board. If you don't get this in Playthrough 1 then you can get it in Playthrough 2.
Tips & Notes:
Tips:
- Whenever a Scavenger mission appears (and this applies to all the Paid/Made in trophies), the Mission Marker will only show you the general area to look in, not where the specific Gun part actually is. The Gun parts can be recognised by the green shimmer they give off when you are close and will show as a Money Bag on your Compass. A Green Trophy Icon will also appear above the part when you're close enough. See here for a visual Guide to these missions (credit to KFZ Scrubs): LINK
- The mission "Catch-A-Ride" can sometimes glitch. To fix this, Turn In the first couple of missions that T.K Baha gives you or you can do what Joe111eleven111 recently told us of and that's to save, exit, reload and the glitch will be gone.
- Bone Head can be easily beaten by using this method courtesy of JHChiBulls:
Like with Bone-Head, I stood a fair distance from the front gate and just sniped him and he didn't even move to attack back.
Notes:
- Sometimes the Claptrap that's next to the Fyrestone Bounty Board will erroneously announce that new Missions are available at that particular Bounty Board. This is an audio glitch and can be ignored.
- The Mission "Leaving Fyrestone" isn't needed to earn this trophy.
- In your HUD, the Hidden Journal: The Arid Badlands mission incorrectly states you only have to find 4 journals when it should say 5.
- It is possible to miss a few missions, finish the game then start playthrough 2 and get this trophy without doing all the missions (Credit to greenzsaber for this info).
- To prevent a rare but nasty crash when fighting Mad Mel, leave your vehicle outside the arena, enter it and get yourself killed by the enemies that are inside. Once you've re-spawned, stand/crouch on the ramp that leads into the arena, get your Rocket Launcher out and start picking off the Rocket Launcher Runners. After all the Runners have been destroyed, Mad Mel himself will appear in his custom Runner and he's a lot tougher than the others so be prepared for a fight. Mad Mel will also have a couple of normal Rocket Launcher Runners guarding him so make sure you also destroy them as well. Once they're all dead, you can safely enter the arena and make your way to the Dahl Headland Transition Gate.
