How to unlock the Ear Protection Recommended achievement in Minecraft Dungeons - Definitive Guide

Make sure you have 3 gongs from the game and have each one in your item slots. Equip a piece of gear that has final shout and let yourself get hit and get to about 50% HP. Pop all 3 gongs WHILE you are being hit, that way all 3 gongs from X, Y, and B go off and then all 3 go off again from the final shout. Was able to do this in about 60 seconds after loading into a level.

Items needed:
3 gongs
Armor with Final Shout

EDIT: the new Pilgin armor also gives a cooldown to artifacts when a potion is used (appears several have had better chances with the new armor)

EDIT EDIT: appears the achievement can be gotten at the base camp as long as you have the proper gear, no world needed

Desert Temple seems to be the only level you can get them. But it sucks, there's a ton of possible rewards. This DLC is just a bunch of grindy achievements :(

Couldn’t get it to work with armor with final shout, seemed to pop using pigeon armor, makes sense since that was added with the new dlc or it would have been something easily obtained before.

Pilgin armor works great for this and you get a ton of it playing the dlc. I got the achievement at camp.

I've tried Piglin armor and some unique guided armor that has the same perk. I can't get it to unlock in camp or in level. 3 gongs/potion/3 gongs. Nothing yet.

Pretty sure it is. I don't think there's been an update since the one that broke it.

@BSL+H34D+SH07 You cannot borrow gear. Or by "borrow" do you mean give.

Thanks Consolor for the post. The Title update must have fixed the bug. I can confirm this is now working.

I got unlucky, and a gong was one of the last items I even found. Took me a while to get 3. That's why I gave the completion estimate of 1-2 hours. Technically once you have 3 gongs, it takes minutes if not seconds. But you can easily spend 2 hours looking for them to drop even once you focus on the mission they come out of.

@MFC06 I got mine finishing the Desert Temple level. They didn’t drop during the level but once I defeated the end boss, they dropped a gong.

Piglin Armor + 3 Gongs in the camp = 5 seconds. Obviously the harder part was getting the items, but once they were equipped, X, Y, B, LB, X, Y, B, POP.

@MFC06 gongs are items you get from drops or shops (or possibly gifted to you) they are a pretty frequent item to be seen or gained

Collect three Gong of Weakening Artifacts and a set of Piglin Armor (or the Golden Piglin Armor).

Once you have these four items, go to your camp and equip the three artifacts and the armor. Health usage resets your artifacts so all you have to do is press X, Y, B, LB, X, Y, B.

You can get Gongs of Weakening via the Desert Temple quest and the Piglin Armor from the Nether Wastes or Basalt Deltas.

Also the Village Merchant or the Luxury Merchant could be carrying either item in their inventory. Look after each mission and restock if they arent found the first attempt. It costs 100, 200, and 400 to restock the Village Merchant and 400 for the Luxury Merchant once. So for 1100 emeralds you can get 30 attempts (if at max slots) at getting these two items which is pretty reasonable.

You will need to unlock 3 Gong of Weakening artifacts from replaying levels from the main game. Next, you want to unlock some Piglin armor, which is new to this DLC. Piglin armor, unique or not, will have a passive ability of replenishing your artifact cooldowns when you use a potion. We can do this in a level or in our camp. Just trigger all 3 gongs, drink your potion, and trigger your gongs again as fast as you can.

We get three gongs of weakness (either by completing the Desert Temple mission, or buying from a merchant in the camp) and armor on which you can put the “Last Cry” enchantment, then we go to the secret island with mushroom cows, setting the difficulty level slightly higher than recommended, activating three at once gong outside the cluster of mobs, then quickly run into the cluster of cows, take damage and when you reach low health indicators, the gongs will be activated without taking into account their reload time
