How to unlock the Need a Doctor achievement in Mortal Kombat X - Definitive Guide

An X-Ray is a brutal special move in Mortal Kombat since Mortal Kombat 9.
On the bottom of the screen is your Ex-Meter (The three bars), which you fill by:

- Using special moves (found under cn_startcn_A - "Special Moves" , during a match)
- Getting hit by the enemy

In order to perform one you have to have a full meter, now it will indicate your X-Ray is ready by showing "X-Ray" over the third bar.

Every character uses his X-Ray by pressing cn_LT and cn_RT at the same time.
Using your X-Ray will deplete the whole meter and inflict a lot of damage to your opponent if you hit him with it.

Every character has a different one, which also means that some have different ranges they can hit the enemy in, than others.
If you want to practice your X-Rays go to:

"Singleplayer" - "Training" - "Practice"

In the Practice mode you can set the Ex-Meter to always full in the options and practice your X-Rays easily.

EDIT: There are 2 characters, that might give some people trouble, Sonya and Takeda.
1. Sonya has a "Counter-Xray", she has to be hit by the opponent during her Xray.
2. Takeda has to be in the air in order for his Xray to work.

EDIT2: For the achievement you need to perform an X-Ray with each of the 24 characters.
Shinnok has to be unlocked by completing the story first, and Goro is not needed as he is DLC.

I would advise you to combine this with the:

  • "Play with every Character Variation"
  • "Win with every Character Variation"
  • "Perform a Fatality with every Character"
achievements !

The quickest way i found for now, is:
  1. Go to "Options" - "Gameplay" and set the rounds to 1, so you only have to win 1 instead of 2 rounds wich basicy saves you half the time.
  2. Go to "Singleplayer" - "Single Fight" and start with the character you want to begin.
  3. Win 3 matches with the character (one with every variation) and durign those, use the X-Ray of the character, perform one fatality with the character and if you want to perform one of the Brutalities of the character. (* See note)
  4. Rinse and repeat for every character. (Goro is not needed).
* This will help you towards the "Perform 50 Brutalities" achievement and will give you the achievement for performing 1 Brutality.

If you do this in survival tower and lose when your done with that character you can stack more achievements!

I guess you want to stack it with the achievement for completing a tower with every character?
As the survivor tower is either 2 rounds or 1 round with double the life (if you set it to 1 round as i described above) my method is quicker.
And as you have to finish 50 Live Towers anyway (which survivor does not count for) you can simply finish those 50 with all the characters to get that and still be quicker this way !
As long as im not missing anything ill keep my post the way it is, but tell me if you want to correct something ! Lg

I'm pretty sure I'm not good enough to beat live towers with every character, I'm just doing live towers with the few I am really good with.

You can try the old "jump attack - uppercut - repeat - strategy" , it works actually pretty well against the easier AIs, and it works with all the characters, just as a tipp if you want to try it !

I'm having trouble with Sonya Blade's X-Ray move. She glows purple for a moment when I press LT+RT but nothing happens. Is she one of the characters who have to be positioned a certain way to pull off an X-Ray? I've done others without a problem!

Yeah she has a "counter" x-ray, so in order for it to work, she has to be hit by the enemy when she glows purple ! Dont like that kind of x-ray though ..

Thanks! Had the girlfriend press X on the other controller when I pressed LT+RT and that did the trick.

If the AI blocks your attempt it still counts as you performing it! Was playing as Quan Chi (I played as each character in order) and when I went to do the Xray and the AI blocked it, the achievement popped!

Press LT and RT when the word "x-ray" appears at the button-line. Get hit by your enemy until the line is filled up. Easy with 2 controllers! Most players will wonder why Takeda's X-Ray move doesn't work.. Solution is easy: Just jump and tap LT plus RT while in the air to perform his brutal X-ray move!

I am immensely shocked there are only 5 upvotes to this solution. This is legitimately the most helpful thing I've seen for this game. Thank you for taking the time to share the awesome resource!

Can easily be boosted in practice mode, just run through each character and pop off an X-ray.

There are 24 characters in the game (excluding DLC). Each character has one X-Ray. You must press + with a full super meter to trigger the X-Ray attack.

For this trophy, you will need to complete the Main Story first because Shinnok is required to perform the X-Ray also, and he is unlocked after beating the story.

You can download the Full PDF Checklist Here.

The quickest and safest way to get this is in practice mode. Here, you will always start out with a full super meter, so simply enter this mode and keep switching all the fighters after pressing + with them. DLC characters (Goro etc.) are not required for this.

Take note that almost every X-Ray move can be done by simple pressing this two buttons; just Sonya needs to parry an opponent hit and Takeda needs to be in the air. For a full reference of every move, you can watch the video:

X-Ray moves are especially brutal attacks that require a full special meter to pull off. To save time I recommend tackling this achievement at the same time as "Tower Warrior". While you play through the towers with each fighter, hit at least one x-ray move by pressing + at the same time when you have a full three bars of your special meter. Once you have hit your final x-ray move the achievement will unlock. Remember to keep track of your progress using the checklist (PDF, Numbers, Excel).

Alternatively you can grind this out in Practice Mode, the exception once again being Sonya Blade.

NOTE: Sonya Blade's x-ray move is a counter so you will need your opponent to actively be attacking you to trigger it. Also, Takeda's x-ray move needs to be triggered in the air.

You can do it in the “Practice” mode, there is an endless X-ray.

For all fighters, X-Ray is done on L2+R2 . Each character has 1 X-ray. Do it once and get a trophy.

Sonya Blade - X-rays cannot be done in practice, as they are done in response to the opponent’s blows! According to the plot, there will be battles for Sonya, so Rengten will be possible to do!

It is necessary to apply x-ray when the scale is full by each fighter! It is not necessary for an X-RAY to work out in a fight...! Even if you failed to perform an x-ray... but you used it and the scale was reset... then this use counts towards the trophy NEED A DOCTOR .

Take the 2nd gamepad and start selecting characters in order using X-ray keys and RT. There are 24 characters in total. DLC characters do not count. To make the achievement faster, set the settings to 30 minutes and 1 winning round.

Or just go to a workout. There X-ray is immediately filled. For Sonya Blade, we set up a knockout blow (or something else called it) on the opponent’s pause, and do an uppercut ( or ) and do X-Ray. We do it: firstly, without a second gamepad, secondly, in five minutes, and thirdly, without unnecessary hassle.
