How to unlock the Perks of the Job achievement in Dead Island 2 - Definitive Guide

This is more of a heads-up than a guide. This is NOT bugged as it seems. Despite the very poor ingame explanation saying these are "unlocked" from the start, they are indeed actually LOCKED!!!

These will unlocked, become available to complete, around the 14th or 15th story mission called "the giant slayer". (here is the IGN guide on this mission if you want to know more about the actual mission: https://www.ign.com/wikis/dead-island-2/The_Giant-Slayer)

I think this is bugged. I have completed all 7 of the blueprint challenges and beaten the game and it still has not popped for me.

You can't claim it's not bugged when it is for some people. I've beaten the game and done all 7 challenges and it didn't pop. I then made a second slayer and got it to the point where I could do the challenges and again it didn't pop.
How this guide has positive votes is beyond me.

I ended up downloading the game and launching on the xbox one x and it popped in the menu.

Still, the guide is inaccurate as IT IS glitched for quite a few people.

They aren't referring to it just not unlocking and being bugged that way. They're referring to how if you look at the challenges upon starting the game you can see still see these in your challenge list, but the progress won't go up so it may appear to be bugged and not working. It's because they aren't actually available yet until reaching a certain point in the game. The achievement bugging and not unlocking is completely different than what the guide is mentioning.

Regardless, saying it's bugged in the actual guide as they have is simply untrue. They could have just had the second paragraph. They don't even need to mention it being bugged in that case.. Not to mention they could have updated the guide with some workaround for the actual bug.

Blueprints are usually lying on top/next to workbench/workbenches.

There are seven Blueprint Challenges in total, and they’ll unlock upon meeting Patton for the first time in Venice Beach. Completing each one will reward you with a weapon upgrade blueprint, so they’re well worth doing. They are as follows:
  • Perform 100 Heavy attacks for the Contagious Blueprint
  • Inflict bleeding status 50 times for the Infectious Blueprint
  • Inflict ignite 50 times for the Infernal Combustion Blueprint
  • Slay 100 zombies with melee weapons for the Leechblade Blueprint
  • Knock down zombies 100 times for the Shockwave Blueprint
  • Inflict the ‘electrified’ status effect on zombies 50 times for the Static Charge Blueprint
  • Collect 200 zombie parts for the Vampire Blueprint
While most are relatively straightforward, if you’re struggling for zombie parts for the Vampire Blueprint, you can find an abundance of zombie parts in the Medical Disposal Waste bins at the CDC Center, near The Pier in Santa Monica. These also respawn zombie parts when you leave.
