How to unlock the Naughty Children achievement in NieR:Automata BECOME AS GODS Edition - Definitive Guide
This achievement is related to the hidden super boss of Nier Automata, Emil. For beginners, you must complete the Emil’s Memories side quest. Please see Lunar Tear (15G) for more information on how to do so. Second, you must be a high level, as Emil is level 99 and packs a nasty punch. I recommend waiting until you have beaten the game before tackling this. More importantly, there is an ending tied to this achievement (ending Y) so please refer to Transcendent Being (15G) to make sure you do not miss that as well. In short, this should be one of the very last things you do in the game. Once you are ready, farm yourself up to at least level 80-85. The farming method I used was a similar one to this video by LTRT:
Remember that the golden bunny takes a massive amount of damage to awaken, but you will gain multiple levels at once for taking it down via hacking. Once you are comfortable with your level and have completed the Emil’s Memories side quest, you need to find his hideout. Emil will give you a hint as to where it is if you speak with him, so head for the NW portion of the massive crater in the City Ruins to find a hidden elevator. Down the elevator, continue through the very long and dark cave until you reach a giant drop. Have no fear, there is water at the bottom to catch your fall. After some more traversing, you will find another door which leads to Emil’s house. Approach the residence and pick up an item outside of Emil’s hut to trigger the next portion of this quest.
Now make the long trek out of the cave and return to Emil. Open his shop and close it, where Emil will mention that he had to hide his valuables in a locked chest. This means you must once again return to his home so you can commit theft once more. Hack into the chest near his hut and try to leave. Emil will confront you and the battle begins. This fight is much easier the higher level you are, so I recommend using the previously mentioned farming spot until you are 95+. You can also set your AI partner to aggressive so that 2B is maxing damage output. Once you have defeated Emil, you will earn yourself this achievement and can begin ending Y. Once more, you can buy this achievement from the achievement shop after beating the game. This one will set you back 200,000 G if you do not feel like tackling this massive quest.
