How to unlock the Exterminator achievement in Desperados III - Definitive Guide
I managed to get this on the Back Alley Jazz mission in New Orleans. I got Kate's disguise and then ran around the city on full zoom looking for rats skuttling about. There are very few of them (about 12-13) that I could find, they tend to be found around crates and barrels. Make sure to keep runnning over them until they visibly splat. Achievement will pop as soon as you've splatted your 10th one.
It helps to run away from a zone and come back to make rats respawn. They sometimes also respawn if you just hang around 1 area. It is a bit wonky.
Certain missions will contain small animals crawling around the map (geckos, crabs, rats, scorpions, snakes,...). Due to their size and because they won't be highlighted when pressing , these can be quite hard to see, so you'll want to zoom in. When you approach these animals, they'll try to scurry away but you can easily squash them as you run over them. There will be a visible splat whenever you kill one.
Not all missions will have these animals or enough of them for the trophy, but mission 10, 14 and 16 are examples where you can find 10 or more. I would recommend doing this near the end of a mission as you might already have killed a few without paying attention, especially during one of the longer missions.
1) All these animals always appear on the map in certain places. That is, if one rat walks along the road near the bank, then it will always appear there until it is run over.
2) If you have already killed an animal in a certain place once during a mission, then it will no longer appear in that place!! You won't be able to farm here, I checked it personally, even re-downloaded it, no effect))
3) Based on the point above, I concluded that there is a certain number of animals on the map, that is, as many as the developers put them on the map.
4) If you stand next to a place and wait for an animal, then most likely it will not appear, it is probably afraid, so you should put all your heroes away and watch it yourself periodically.
Personally, I completed the trophy in the 8th mission, where everyone was leaving a fun night)) I found exactly 10 animals (1 crab, 4 rats and 5 frogs) and couldn’t find anyone else, I searched the entire map. But that was enough.
-a crab on the shore in the upper left corner of the map;
-rat in the bank area;
-rat in the area where Cooper and Kate woke up;
-rat at the bottom of the map, on the road, just above the dentist;
-rat in the port where 2 Cloaks walk;
-frog in the area where Hector meets the very first enemy at the beginning of the mission;
-frog on the road near the cannon;
-a frog on the road a little to the right of the place where the disguise for Kate hangs;
-a frog on the road a little lower and to the left of the bank, there are still chickens running around there;
-frog in the port on the road, almost reaching Cloaks.
