How to unlock the You Have No Power Over Me achievement in Call of Duty: Black Ops II - Definitive Guide

First you must turn the power on, to do this travel to the 4th (i think) stop on the bus route, you will find a warehouse type building with a shack next to it. Open the door and drop down. You will be in a bright white corridor, go into the main room and follow the walkway round till you reach a small room. In front of you is a workbench, now you need three components for it because you need to build the power switch, they are:
- A back panel
- A 3 pronged switch
- A zombie hand

The zombie hand is the most difficult to find because it looks exactly like the hands that get littered around when you kill zombies. All three are somewhere within the main white circular room, the entry corridor and the workbench room. To pick them up just walk up to them and there will be an on screen prompt for you (X for 360, square for PS3). You can only carry one part at a time, once you have a part, take it to the workbench and hold X or square to build the part. Once you have built all three, you can then switch on the power, the circular white room will become electrified and a tube will rise with the electrical zombie boss in it, who will then escape! Fun times...

Secondly, you need an EMP grenade from the random box (alternative to the monkey bombs). Now hopefully when the zombie boss attacks he doesn't do it while your on the bus and its when at a stop. When he arrives, avoid him and throw an EMP grenade at him. That should kill him and providing nobody got attacked by him, the achievement should pop for all people in the game.

Hope this guide helps, sorry if it was longwinded, i thought as much detail as possible would be best for all players :)

Is it recommended turning on the power before trying to obtain the emp grenade or does the order not matter? I haven't been able to obtain an emp grenade out of the random box to save my life....very frustrating

Good question dynasty, searched online a bit, nobody seems to acknowledge either way but i'm pretty sure i played tranzit on easy from the get go simply to get used to the map. As far as i'm aware, the only achievement that you need to be on normal difficulty for is the easter egg achievement. I will continue to search and will update if i find anything.

It can be done on easy, my friend just got the achievement. It took 7 rounds where we killed the final zombie with lightning all around the sky for him to spawn, so timing seems to be very key.

Unfortunately He spawned behind me at the diner, and hit me before I could throw the EMP, so I didn't get the achievement :/

The spawning is still off. I've been trying to get my achievement solo, and when I finally get EMP grenades, it takes forever for him to spawn. Sometimes the character will make random comments about the storm (after I end the round on a lightning strike) but then he doesn't spawn.

Not to mention, when he finally does spawn, he can't be killed in orb form, and attacks immediately after leaving orb form. I had an EMP cooked and he fricken attacked right as he appeared.

I can't get this on my own, and hate relying on friends to take time out of their busy schedules to help. :/

I just got this on Round 13 at the fourth bus stop without getting hit or suffering any damage. Just make sure you have a powerful weapon and camp out since the electric man that spawns in my case, the area where the "tombstone" perk machine was.

Here is a tip. Don't spam your EMP grenades and make sure you actually watch because you only have two. I was lucky to kill him once he got down and he went back up. Round 16 and I died surprisingly because the electric man spawned again even though he got EMPed at round 13.

I thought when he gets killed once, he doesn't come back again. Well, I was wrong. Just wanted to provide my two cents.

@Hobotheclown92:
The random box starts at the second area (the Diner) in the building next to the diner. The building also has a workbench in it. Pay the $750 to open the building's door (you don't need to open up the diner itself fyi) and the box will be right inside the door. The box can move (I think to a random location at one of the other stops) if the box gives you a teddy bear instead of a weapon. So if that happens you'll have to find it again. Hopefully, that helps you.

Can he spawn more than once in a single game? Also if you look up in the sky you should see a blue light going into the sky (on all zombie maps) and that's the location of the box.

Okay got to round 20 solo and he spawned so I threw an EMP, he tried to zap me but missed, he died and the achievement didn't pop, I was however taking alot of damage from zombies so luckily I had Jugg and a shield, he really catches you off guard.

So the onpy reason I can think of for why this didn't work is the achievement must synchronize for the whole game, attacked once and you will most likely have to restart the game.

just a pointer for those who choose to stab/knuckle him.
he takes 2-3 hits but can ONLY be hurt after he shoots a thunderball and crouches. if you dont hit him in time he turns back into his light ball form

To be honest it doesn't matter, if you can get the emp grenade before you turn the power on then thats great, but you only get so many tries on the box as you know, and my personal experience is get juggernog quick or you don't last long lol. You can use the turbine to get jug without power, i never tend to have any luck. This achievement is one likely picked up as you play at some point just try not to let it frustrate you, if you play zombies a lot you WILL get this.

Sorry to hear about your problem hulltigers, its the first time ive heard of that problem occuring. I had a quick look online, cant find a solution, my only thought is to try and turn the power off then turn it back on again and see if it releases the electric zombie again (maybe its glitched). Not sure if you've tried that, hope it helps if you haven't.

The usual spawn seems to be between round 5 and 8 when the power is turned on before round 3. I did this with 2 in the town, killing the last zombie when the storm was overhead. He spawned round 7, far enough from both of us to get the achievement.

Some tips you might want to add:
• Using bigger locations like the farm, town or cornfields is the key to get him to spawn far enough.
• Getting the EMP before round 5 seems crucial, having money in the bank is always useful.
• Getting the power on before or on round 3 spawned him a dozen of times on round 5, other times on round 7 (If timed right with the overhead storm).
• Only start rounds 5+ when you're ready and the storm is overhead.
• When doing solo and searching the box: Always watch the zombies! They can start running on random occasions.
• Always leave a walker on round 1-2, preferably 2-3 walkers on round 3 and on (keeps them from running). Never make crawlers! They will die eventually.

The characters only make you aware of a storm coming, seems what they say is just a game filler.

That's Pretty much what I learned from TranZit (for this particular achievement).

This is a solo guide...First step is to turn on the power. Try to get to the power room without killing as much zombies as possible to make it easier. Once the power is on get back on the bus and go to the next stop. Buy the pistol on the top of the bus ceiling. If there is 1 zombie left keep him in the bus and run around him so you dont start a new round. When you get to the town go to the bar on the far side up the stairs and get enough points for juggernaut. This is optional but it helps. You want to make it back to the Diner part of the map where it is easy to train zombies. Run around in the open area to train zombies for points. Either get lucky and get EMP grenades out of the mystery box or you can just stab him if your playing solo. Eventualy the electric zombie will appear after a random round and then just throw the EMP grenade at the zombie and it will disappear....for now. In solo its attacks do not hurt but in co-op it definetly does. You can get your friends this achievement by letting it attack you while you kill it.

This video guide says otherwise Car56, not calling you a liar just saying that it looks like you CAN get it with the side to side lightning.

I have had 4 instances so far where he has flashed me with "side by side" lightning, I then killed him with an EMP and no achievement all four times. Car56 is not a liar by any means, but looks like the video guy got lucky.

Car56 is right though, there is some circumstance in solo that does in fact prevent the cheev showing up if he attacks you somehow. I followed the solution last night and cheev didnt pop after he hit me, just saying

Excellent guide and I might add that that if ELECTRIC man shows up and you get a flash of lightening lighting up your screen, you WON'T get the achievement. Not him shooting a bolt of lightening at you, but rather a lightening flash across your screen that doesn't hurt you. If this happens, you will have to restart. What I did was when he appeared I anticipated this and was safely inside the bank and threw EMD's outside and finally got the achievement. Remember if playing solo and he shows up and he flashes you with "side to side lightening" (that does no damage), you will NOT get the achievement after you kill him. Even if you meet him later and EMP him without the flash you will not get the achievement. You have to get it right the FIRST TIME YOU MEET HIM. Hope this clarifies things.

Here is the tutorial that I made for this achievement.

1. First thing you would want to do is try to obtain the EMP grenades from the mystery box. I recommend using the EMP grenades.
You can use GalvaKnuckles from the diner, they cost 6,000 but it is really hard to get the achievement using them.

2. Once you have the Knuckles or EMP grenades, you want to turn on the power.
Once the power is on you may want to move on to a new area.

3. Once in that new area, you will want to start a new round, kill all zombies but make sure to leave 1 or 2 crawlers. Once you have a crawler left, make sure you watch the sky.
Once the storm looks like it is right above you, kill the zombie and a new round will start, which should spawn the Electric Zombie.

4. If the electric zombie spawned you will hear a noise, find him and throw one EMP grenade at him and he will spin and fly into the sky. The achievement should pop up.
If you have the GalvaKnuckles then you will need to hit him at least 4 or 5 times to kill him and get this achievement.

If this helped you out, please drop a like on the video, and thumbs up on my solution, it helps out.
Thanks a lot. ~

I have just done this, this guide is for solo.

You need to;

1.) Get hold of emps from the mystery box at the diner.
(if you don't get them by round 5 just end the game and start again.)
2.) Turn on the power.
3.) Keep two zombies alive and run around the yard outside power station, keep an eye on the sky, when lightning is all over the map, it's time to kill the zombies and try to get the electric guy to spawn.
4.) Read the last paragraph of this solution as it is the most important thing I have to convey to you.

It took me several rounds to get the lightning right and spawn him, When he does spawn, stay in the corner opposite the ak47u, this will make him spawn in the upper floor of the building, he will then climb down from the open corner of the building, at this point run over and toss an emp over the barrier at him. Boom achievement pops.

The most important thing I can tell you here is that when it's the right time to end the round, your guy will say something about the lightning, I really wish I could remember what it was. It was one sentence about how crazy the lightning was, if he (maxi/your character) comments on how crazy the lightning is, shoot the zombies immediately, end the round right there, the electric guy will spawn the next round.

Really hope this helps you. Good luck.

You can also get this one by punching the lightning guy with the galvaknuckles. It only takes about 4 or 5 hits and can be a bit easier to get than waiting for the box to randomly spawn the EMP grenades. The only issue with this method is you become a target for his attack and can miss out on the achievement. Which is what happened to me, my buddy got it because he was in a different location of the map and thus wasn't attacked by "him."
Just try and punch the hell out of him without mercy before he can fire off an attack at you.

There are several steps to this achievement.

1) Turn on the power.
-Travel by bus to the power station (4th stop- Depot, Diner, Farm, Power)
-Buy the door to the shack with the ak74u on the side
-Drop down and build the power panel (board, 2 pronged switch, hand)
-Turn on power, which releases "him", the electric man out into the open.

2)Get something to kill him with.
-Either
a)Hit the box for emp grenades
b)Use the building part for the roof of the bus on the diner. Once you open the diner go to the back right corner. You will see stuff kind of piled up on the ground making a hill. Look up and you will see a place to attach the inside bus ladder. Double jump up and the Galvaknuckles will be on the wall for you to purchase for 6000.

3)Get "him" to come near
-You will hear lightning every once and a while after you turn on the power and release the electric man. He will appear if you kill your last zombie of the round when the lightning is directly overhead.
-If done correctly, you will notice that the thunder has gone all quiet and the lightning fills up the sky.

4)Kill "him"
-You will see him appear
-Either stand back and toss your emp at him (only 1 needed if done correctly) or get in close and hit him with the knuckles (two hits was enough when I used the knuckles on him)

Notes:
-You are more likely to get hit with his zapper when using knuckles as they are a close range weapon
-If you are going to use knuckles wait until he is in human form, not ball form or punching him won't work.
-I can confirm you do not have to be the one to kill him to get the achievement. I've played with friends and they have gotten the achievement when I have killed "him" because they did not get hit.

What i've done to unlock this Achievement really easy. Is You have to get the EMP GRENADE from the MYSTERY BOX, i would Recommend turning on the power before round 4. Then going to the MYSTERY BOX and spam it mad crazy before round 7 or round 8. Because the zombies will be tougher and harder to kill. If you don't get the EMP GRENADE before round 6. Your going to have a tough time on your hands lol. Just restart the game and try again if you cant get the EMP GRENADE in time. its not hard and its really super easy to get this Achievement. Ill upload a YouTube video on how to get the EMP GRENADE from the MYSTERY BOX before round 6. once you finely have the EMP GRENADE. wait for the ELECTRIC ZOMBIE BOSS to spawn and right when hes about to hit you. throw the EMP GRENADE right at him. Make sure he does not hit you before that. Once you kill him with the GRENADE. The Achievement will unlock soon after. LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE to my Channel for more Achievement Guides and other gameplay videos and Walkthroughs. thanks :)

For this achievement you need to turn on the power, and then get really lucky. Avagadro or the Electric Guy spawns at random. You can either hit him with an EMP grenade or knife him like you see done in the video. Of course knifing him on later rounds isn't a smart move because he and the zombies trying to kill you have more health. But it is advised to turn on the power as soon as possible. Round 1 or 2.

Step 1: Get EMP Grenades from mystery box. The box always spawns at the second bus stop, the Diner.
Step 2: Go to the fourth bus stop, the Bunker.
Step 3: Activate the power. "He" can only spawn where the thunderstorm is happening.
Step 4: Go outside, leave one zombie alive and wait until the thunderstorm is right above you. Kill the zombie to end the round.
Step 5: "He" looks like an electric zombie and has a 50% spawn chance in the area with the thunderstorm. He can only spawn in between rounds, not during rounds. Throw an EMP grenade at him.

He may attack you with shock attacks / electricity attacks. You may not die, that's all. You can also try to knife him or use other weapons. He can take a lot of damage though. The EMP Grenade will kill him instantly. If he does not spawn then play the next round, leave one zombie alive and kill that zombie once the thunderstorm is above you.

This refers to the zombies that appear after you turn on the electricity. He's all blue and covered in lightning. Before that, you take the EMP in the box and just throw it at him.

Here's a video

If you play as a team, then it is enough that one person kills him, everyone will receive the trophy (who did not suffer from him)

Electrozombies can be killed with 5 stabs of a knife, but let the player who has this trophy do it. After the death of the electric zombie, all other players must receive a prize.
