Spoilers for zombie island DLC (even though achievement kind of does that in the name lol)

This shouldn't take more than a couple hours of play time to get and is pretty easy and quick if you ignore all the side quests up to this pont.

Killing

Missions involved in this trophy:

  • Hitching A Ride
  • A Bridge Too Ned
  • Night of the Living Ned

Now you've uploaded the ECHO Logs you need to go to the designated area for pickup. Follow the waypoint to the pickup point and press the button the waypoint is pointing at, this will send a signal indicating you're ready for pickup. With the signal sent you must now survive until your ride lands. The main threats here come from Suicide Zombies, Defilers and the Crimson Lance Zombies, use incendiary/explosive weapons if you have to. Once your ride appears get on board and return to Jakobs Cove.

When you land make your way to the Bounty Board and the company representative, press on the Claptrap to Turn In the Mission and receive a button panel that's essential for your next mission.

For the next mission, you have to lower a bridge so you can gain access to the Jakobs Lumber Mill. Follow your waypoint to the Lumber Yard entrance. You will need an SMG/Machine Gun for this next section so you can kill as many Zombies as possible before they can swarm you. Between you and the bridge are numerous Suicide Zombies, Badass Tankensteins and Defilers, so be prepared for a string of major battles. The number and appearance of these Zombies depends on which Playthrough you're on.

When you get to the bridge you have to press on the shimmering panel which will (slowly) lower the bridge. The moment the bridge starts to lower, Zombies will start spawning en masse, amongst which will be at least two Badass Tankensteins. When the Badass Tankensteins show up you will want to use your action skill, plus any grenades you have left and your best Rocket Launcher. To Turn In this mission press on the gate that’s blocking the entrance to the bridge.

To get to Dr. Ned's Hideout you have to traverse an area that is crawling with Badass Tankensteins (Playthrough dependent), Zombies and WereSkags. Take things slowly and watch out for surprise attacks. Eventually you will reach a short Tunnel that will take you to the Jakobs Lumber Mill. Once you enter this tunnel you will be swamped from both ends by Zombies of all kinds, including a Tankenstein. Use your action skill to make a path through the Zombies to one end or the other, then stand back and blast them with everything you've got!

Once the Zombie swarm has been wiped out, you can enter the Lumber Mill area. In here you've got Zombies and Defilers but also WereSkags so be prepared for a fight. You need to make your way to The Mill entrance where, once inside, you will have to make your way through the various offices, fighting Zombies on your way to your showdown with Dr. Ned. Dr. Ned is a really tough customer. His SMG will shred your shield and health in seconds on Playthrough 2 and 2.5 but on Playthrough 1 it isn't so bad. The easiest way to fight Dr. Ned is to hide behind the Medical Screens near where he spawns and take pot-shots at him. Crouch and hide if you take damage, your action skill will help with this battle so use it as and when needed. Due to the damage Dr. Ned can inflict, we recommend buying some medkits (at least 4) and use them if your health goes critical. There isn’t any single weapon that will take down Dr. Ned so just use your most powerful one and let him have it, though if you have a shock weapon handy that will help take down his shields. If needed, you can resupply at the vending machines near where you entered the Mill. Dr. Ned's shields will start regenerating after a while so don’t take too long resupplying.

This trophy will pop during the fake credits sequence after killing Dr. Ned.
