How to unlock the Duel-icious achievement in Borderlands - Definitive Guide

To start a duel with another player simply join a co-op game and then walk up to another player and melee them to propose a duel. They will need to melee you back to accept the duel.

This is an extremely easy achievement to boost with a friend as it only takes a few seconds to complete a duel. If you are boosting with a friend, ask them not to attack you back and you can get the Duelinator achievement at the same time.

This can also be done in splitscreen mode if you have access to a second controller. If you don't have a friend to boost this with or a second controller, try to learn the strengths and weaknesses of each class as you play co-op and use that to your advantage. You can also try to start a duel with another player that is a few levels below you and that will give you a strong advantage.

FYI, you can't unlock this with a ring-out. I managed to knock my partner out of the duel-zone and they couldn't make it back in time, but no achievement.

I plugged in a second controller and tried to start a duel by melee attacking my player, but it said "not accepting duels at this time" ... ????

Is this achievement glitched? I just tried this with a friend of mine online (not split-screen) and it didn't give me either of the duel achievements.

If you're getting the "Unable to accept duels" like I was, go to Options > Game Options > Duel Requests: ACCEPT.

There is 2 ways in which you can do this trophy:

Option 1 (super easy) have a second controller, and start up a splitscreen game. Once the game starts, melee eachother on the controller and let the person win that wants the trophy. This will also gain you (if done right) the win without taking damage trophy.


Option 2: Go online and melee and of the people that you are playing with. When they challenge the duel, simply just beat them at it. Easy as that!

If you vote negative, please state why so I can improve my (future) guides.

The trophy is not obtained in the arena and you need two controllers.

In order to start a duel, you need to approach the enemy and hit he should do the same.

Then just kill him and the trophy is yours.
