How to unlock the Executioner achievement in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel - Definitive Guide

You have to kill at least 10 enemies within one activation of Nishas actionskill showdown. Showdown gives you enhanced damage, firerate and other boosts for a limited time while active and also gives you autoaim if you pull cn_LT while shooting.

I did this with level 7 rather early in the game with 4/5 skillpoints in ruthless, which makes showdown last longer with every enemy you kill. I used a blue bandit smg, which had a large clip size (as does every other bandit weapon) so I did not to have to waste showdown time with reloading.

Fast travel to Serenity's waste and go to the building where you get your first OZ kit (the small building with a satelite dish on the roof near the ramp you use to get to Concordia). As you approach the building, kraggons start to spawn in front of it and down in the lava. Jump around and gather them behind you. You can aggro them again by shooting near them on the floor if they loose interest.

Go into showdown and kill the bigger kraggons first, because they split into smaller ones, which takes a little bit of time. If you do them last, you might run out of showdown before you can shoot the small ones. If your clip is big enough, you can basically hold LT+RT and mow everything down after you killed the big ones.

The spawn is a little bit different every time (two big kraggons or kraggon immolater for example) so you may need a few tries. If you still don't get it, you can try and lure the kraggon group to the next spawn loacation en route to regolith range or just come back a few levels later with 5/5 ruthless and better weapons.

Worked absolutely perfect. A nice Blue Rarity SMG that has reasonable magazine size and quick reload speed (Tediore) did the trick. Thanks.

problem i was having is not enough enemies or not enough damage or not enough magazine before the skill runs out. then i got this by just naturally playing Nisha as soon as I arrived at the robot factory after riding the train. it's infested and right around the first corner was like 20 torks easily killed by my fire SMG

This achievement is pretty simple it's for killing 10 enemies during Nisha's special ability. I got it around about level 17. Just make sure you have 5 points in Ruthless. If you don't feel like working for it go back to one of the early level zones and use a weapon with a large clip size. Kraggons or Torks are good enemies to go for. Lock in Showdown pow pow pow achievement.

I've got another option for you: Moon Threshers.

I popped it during "Home Delivery" because the tentacles all seem to count as a separate enemy. Made it pretty easy even without having a big magazine (used a Jacobs revolver).

another good place is the area in front of the building where you get your first O2 kit. there usually will a lot of kraggons that will spawn as you approach the building, also if you can get a mod that adds to her ruthless skill that helps too

Agree with wolfzero on location. Did it at level 12 using rocket launcher plus Excalibastard (should be able to pick that up early if this is your 2nd character).

Good place to get this (imo) is at Crisis Scar when you're doing Peepot's side-quest, just before you pick up the tuckerbag. A bunch of Kraggons will spawn. Get rid of the bigger ones first until they're all the small variant then trigger Showdown and go nuts. Should be more than enough enemies here to get it.

Showdown is the action skill of Nisha and you will need to reach level 3 in order to unlock it. You will need to invest in a skill called 'Ruthless' which is in the 'Fan the Hammer' skill tree. For each point invested into this you will get 0.1 second added to the time of Showdown for each kill you get while it is active. You will want at least 3 skill points added to it to have enough time to kill 10 enemies, meaning that a level 6 Nisha will be necessary for this achievement. The best place to find 10 easy to kill enemies can be found in the video below.

Huge thanks to 'Predni' for the video:

You need to eliminate at least 10 enemies within one activation of Nisha's action skill, Showdown. Showdown grants you enhanced damage, fire rate, and other boosts for a limited time, and it also provides auto-aim when you hold down cn_LT while shooting.

I accomplished this at level 7, relatively early in the game, with 4 out of 5 skill points in Ruthless, which extends the duration of Showdown with each enemy you kill. I used a blue Bandit SMG, which had a large magazine size (as do all Bandit weapons), so I didn't have to waste Showdown time reloading.

Fast travel to Serenity's Waste and head to the building where you obtain your first OZ kit (the small building with a satellite dish on the roof near the ramp leading to Concordia). As you approach the building, Kraggons start spawning in front of it and down in the lava. Jump around and gather them behind you. You can re-aggro them by shooting the ground near them if they lose interest.

Activate Showdown and prioritize killing the larger Kraggons first, as they split into smaller ones, which takes some time. If you leave them for last, you might run out of Showdown before you can eliminate the smaller ones. If your magazine is large enough, you can hold cn_LT+cn_RT and mow everything down after killing the big ones.

The spawn pattern varies each time (e.g., two big Kraggons or a Kraggon Immolator), so you may need several attempts. If you still can't complete it, try luring the Kraggon group to the next spawn location en route to Regolith Range, or return a few levels later with 5 out of 5 points in Ruthless and better weapons.

This achievement requires some skill. The active skill lasts only 6 seconds. With the upgraded Ruthless skill +0.5 sec for each enemy killed. Choose a weapon with a good ratio of damage, magazine, reload speed (it eats up a lot of time of this short skill), upgrade Ruthless and go to the Outlands Canyon location (right in the middle) - there are a lot of Tork monsters that are easy to collect in a bunch.

It will be even easier if you upgrade the skill that allows you to carry two pistols: One for each of ya in the Fun the hammer branch.

I did a boost in Serenity's Waste at level 8 (you get +0.5 per kill) with a standard pistol, which is given at the very beginning of the game. The damage is only 29, but it is very rapid-fire.

No modifiers.

Mission: Let's build an army of robots

Immediately after the train ride (offscreen) and Jack's words that he had a better opinion of the factory. A horde of small beetles will crawl towards you. They are killed with one shot and there are more than ten of them there.

The Ruthless skill (middle skill line) is fully upgraded, which for each kill adds 0.5 seconds to the duration of Showdown.

If there is a mod class that increases Ruthless's skill, you'll be even better. Personally, I had a mod that made Ruthless +0.7 seconds. The character is level 19, and his main weapon was a rapid-fire 20-round shotgun.

The trophy itself, as in the video on the link from voher123 , is very easy to do in the Serenity's Waste location, you just need to lure the Kraggons into a bunch, run a little and that's it...

You can first throw a couple of grenades into the crowd with a delayed explosion, then immediately turn on the skill and shoot anywhere.

Can also be completed in mission SUB-LEVEL 13
There at the beginning, immediately after the shops, there is a place where a lot of torques appear.
Got it the first time: using a rapid-fire pistol with a large clip and the upgraded ruthless perk +0.5 seconds.

One of the hardest trophies in the game. After numerous futile attempts in various ways to obtain it, I succeeded as follows:
1. Rapid-fire revolver from JAKOBS.
2. Fully upgraded Ruthless skill +0.5 sec for each enemy killed.
3. Class mod that increases Ruthless Skill -> +2 Ruthless Skill (+3 is even better). I haven’t leveled up to the “two pistols” skill.
4. Location - Titan Robot Production Plant .
5. Task - Let*s Build a Robot Army/Let turrets kill scavs: 0/12

Come into the room, the scavs will be trampled endlessly. Get them wet by activating the skill. If it doesn't work out the first time, exit the game (PS button) and start over. The main thing is not to let the turret get ahead of you.

The most convenient place is the Titan Industrial Complex. You need to go through a large hall with torques, after which you will see scavs fighting off torques, and that’s where you should start firing. At the same time, you should pump yourself up, ideally go there after completing the story
