How to unlock the Truly Outrageous achievement in Borderlands - Definitive Guide

Prerequisite: Level 5 (Ding! Newbie) and playing as Lilith (Siren class).
BorderlandsDing! NewbieThe Ding! Newbie achievement in Borderlands worth 5 pointsEarn level 5


I recommend against some of the Skag Pups for starters. Walk up to them and hit LB to phase walk and go behind one. R-click to melee behind one and the combination of melee and the shockwave of exiting should kill it easy.

The achivement name is a reference to [link=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jem_(TV_series)]Jem and the Holograms[/link], a 1980s cartoon about a singer name Jem (a siren), who is described in the series as "truly outrageous".

This is a great solution. Really solid explanation plus a nice explanation of the pop culture reference in the achievement title!

If you are starting a new character especially to get this achievement and want to get it as fast as possible, make sure you open all the cash boxes & smash open the piles of dirt etc. You get an experience bonus for opening 50 which will get you to level 5 A LOT quicker.

Then just hang around the first area & kill stuff!

this is the best solution if you are just going for this achievement with the siren character. you only have to kill one enemy with the siren special skill. So its easiest to do on a skag pup right out side the fyrestone gate. You can reach level 5 by the time you do the grenade mission for tk baha, if you open every cantainer and pile like the salution pointed out. Very easy and fast way to get this acheievement, about 30 minutes.

Also you gain 1000xp for buying 5 items. So if you've been opening lots of containers you'll have plenty of money to buy 5 items.

SOLUTION WORKS FOR ALL 4 ACHIEVEMENTS OF THIS TYPE!

first of all,start a local split-screen game with your main character and plug the 2nd controller with the character that you want the achievement.
Then travel to eridian promontory,leave the 2nd controller somewhere and kill some guardians until your character level up to 5,probably some 3 or 4 guardians will make the 2nd character level up until get the action skill.
After that,travel to firestone,shoot some skags,but DO NOT kill them,leave a few amount of HP left and then keep hitting LB until the achievement pop.

Once you reach level 5 with your Siren, you will unlock her action skill. Going in/out of phasewalk will send out a shockwave that will damage your enemies. Adding artifacts to this can also contribute to the elemental weapon kills achievements. To use the Siren's action skill.

Very simple trophy. Full disclosure, you must be playing as a Siren to unlock this trophy laugh

Step 1: Reach level 5 (unlock action skill)
Step 2: Find enemies (skags outside Fyrestone are best)
Step 3: Use action skill (make sure to wound the enemy beforehand)
Step 4: Complete action skill (don't wait for it to end, just punch to kill)

Repeat steps 2 through 4 until you unlock the trophy. The Siren is one of the harder characters to unlock this so it will take longer than others.

Happy Hunting :)

Get Lilth to level 5 (this can be done quite quickly) and go to the Skag Gully zone.

Start killing the enemy until he has little energy left, then use your special ability (Phase walk) on him to finish him off.

If you are lazy.

Then you can take a character with a high level and use the second joystick to join the game, creating the desired first-level player.

The experience is divided into two.
