How to unlock the Need a Doctor achievement in Mortal Kombat X - Definitive Guide
On the bottom of the screen is your Ex-Meter (The three bars), which you fill by:
- Using special moves (found under - "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 and 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"
The quickest way i found for now, is:
- 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.
- Go to "Singleplayer" - "Single Fight" and start with the character you want to begin.
- 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)
- Rinse and repeat for every character. (Goro is not needed).
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

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