How to unlock the Insanity achievement in Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 - Definitive Guide

Solo Method

Mode: Solo Ops
Side: Zombies
Map: Colizeum
Character: Super Brainz (I just used the basic, but the others should be fine if not better.)
Area: Middle of the Colosseum
Make your three other teammates 2 Super Brainz and 1 Scientist. (I used all basic Super Brainz and a Marine Biologist, for the people who are curious.)
Always fill near areas with long range turrets, keep one healing (Dr. Heals) near the center. I only used Gatling and Rocket Bots, so this method won't require grinding for money, just basic Bots worked.

That's all it took for me on the first try but I can imagine there is a bit of luck for the bosses. The bosses I rolled were actually quite hard so I do believe it is still possible with all bosses.

Tips:
Make sure to switch characters before you die, you cannot switch when you are waiting to revive.
Make sure to do the extra challenges.
Keep in mind, you take damage when using the tornado move (Turbo Twistercn_Y).
Make reviving a priority, the only one who should die somewhat often will be the scientist. (For me, he went down around three times.)
Remember that you can attack while reviving, just don't use special abilities.
Be sure to use Super Brainz' beam the majority of the time.
To make quick distance, jump as high as you can and use the Heroic Kickcn_RB.

Do this and you should have no trouble, until a possible update.
If you have any questions just let me know.

This was super helpful and it'll make for a breeze if you got a few upgrades, such as Overheat Penalty, Overheat, and Damage Upgrades.
I've used a master Electro Brainz for the job, probably overkill with the damage upgrade, since you need to be Elite Level 5.
But with this guide here, it works with some trial and error but what I used killed a super bean.

I would honestly recommend to quit game immediately upon a super round of three super beans, it's near impossible when three of them is lasering you to death in seconds

This worked up until the second slot wave. Super bean and torchwood destroyed me. I can see this working easily with a better boss roll.

I rolled a Super Bean as well, the shield was a pain but luckily his teleporting ended up away from my base.

I was crushed on wave 6 twice. No worth the turret costs. First try with #1 solution worked.

how upgraded do you need the Super Brainz to be? right now mine has only been promoted once and only has the delayed health regen unlocked

I have been trying different methods to figure out where the issue is with some people but I can't really figure it out. I have completed it with every boss and even a few times while only using a healing station with zero offensive turrets. It might just come down to a mix of skill and luck.

To answer your question though, when I first beat it I was around level 4. I didn't promote him or anything yet.

I tweaked it to the following and made it trivial:

3 Electro Brainz (damage and overheat upgrades)
1 scientist

Two heal stations and the rest offensive.
I lost one pot and no one went down. Couple perfect waves in there too.

I just did this, but only one of my team made it out, who I switched to, and was using when the timer hit zero, and I did not get this achievement, so im assuming all of your team must make it out for you to get this. For anyone curious, I did it on Aqua Center, at garden A, I used the plumber (me), 2 Dr.Toxic scientists, and Toxic Brainz, I also had a normal Super Brainz I got later on in the second challenge. I did get rather lucky with the bosses, the first wave was two of the big tree guys, and the second was the giant flower. (I dont know there names)

Just got this today. First time through on wave 10, I got smacked around and lost pretty badly. Second time, I decided to use better bots like the freeze and the melee to protect the tombstone. Coincidentally, it was a lot easier and I didn't really struggle. I recommend using some good bots on waves 5 and 10 if need be.

Nice strategy. Worked like a charm with 3 electro brainz and a scientist. I can confirm that you DO NOT need all 4 characters to be extracted at the end for the achievement to pop. The achievement itself is just glitchy. I actually completed the crazy ops twice with a character going down at the end and being left behind (one character would always start glitching and just standing in one spot jumping. I couldn't even switch to them). After the second time I got frustrated and just shut the game off. I waited about a day and got back on to check the progress on the community challenge and as the game was loading the achievement popped. Glad this was easier than GW1!

In case it helps, got this my third try using this technique, except I had two Super Brainz and two Marine Biologists (for extra healing). Let the AI do the healing, I played as a Brainz. Focused on reviving the couple times it happened. Got a little lucky with the boss spins I think (first time just a single bean guy, second time a plant wave and two big tree things).

Thanks! I got it my first try using your guide! 3 Super Brainz, 1 scientist. We all made it out on the extraction too. Wave 10 got a bit dicey though. Everyone was dead, but once everyone else was gone, I was able to jump on top of a column where a stumpy boss couldn't get me.

After a couple tries, finally managed to get it using this method. I’d definitely suggest switching to the Scientist on the boss waves.

I made it to wave 10 using your method with only a healing station. When I actually have some turrets to use this should be easy. Thanks.

You might have just had bad luck with the bosses or something because I really didn't use a lot of turrets and even then I used the easiest to obtain turrets.

i've done this a few times now on different maps, collezium works for both sides garden/graveyard and CRAZZYY is much easier in PVZ2 than it was in PVZ, i remember PVZ with about 10-15 gargantuans on wave 5 boss, and having to camp and hide desperately on the shark bite shore ridge. frequently more difficult even on the bridge -- this game has been scaled waayyy down, maybe dumbed down a little but defiantly easier than i remember on the 360. Also money is everywhere, again PVZ had no money this gives you tons no matter what y0u do

Thanks for the video mongrominet!! That’s the one that helped me get it. The middle of the coliseum always ended up in a gangbang in round 4. It also did not pop for me. I kept playing then turned off the game. As I was checking on the Xbox app the achievements I still need it popped right in my face!!

I have a super easy method for this.

I took some of the information from the other guides and used it here. The only thing I really changed was the characters joining you.

1. Pick graveyard ops (I chose electro brainz as my character but it's up to you).

2. Choose the map colizeum.

3. Choose 3 marine biologists as your allies. (Or equivalent if you don't have him)

I wouldn't recommend palaeontologist cause he has been pretty consistently useless whenever I have used him.

4. Build a Dr Healz and loads of rocket and Gatling turrets.

You shouldn't run into many problems, the only time I did was during super boss waves. The way around this is to switch to a marine biologist and make sure you are healing and reviving while the A.I mops up.

This was my first achievement guide, I hope it was ok. Feel free to give me some notes and feel free to message if you have any questions. headspin

Worked great! I used the electrician though only as I had him at a higher level.

One other recommendation though, the centre tombstone has 2 bot building sections very close. (one by a pillar and another by a chariot?) build 2 Dr.healz there and chill out. You'll be nearly invincible...unless you have the misfortune of getting a superboss wave.

Nice. Much easier than the other guides.

I rolled 3 Super Bean bosses on my first attempt though which was impossible, but got it easily on my second attempt where I rolled those easily cheesable tree bosses. You can just run around the pillars and they can't hit you haha.

Best guide! as long as you get decent boss roles this is doable. Almost made it on the first try but also gor 3 super bean bosses. Second Try was much easier

First of all i did this in garden ops as i prefer plants to the zombies, now to start, load the game up when it has loaded you will want to go the the plant side side of backyard battleground from there go to RV to start garden ops then press cn_B click onto create multiplayer match, once it has created the session i found that zen peak was the easiest map to do this on set difficulty to crazy and set permission to open, I did this with friends and one random but this should be achievable with 3 random people, click ready now i did this with two sunflowers and two roses but peashooters are equally as effective as roses once you have selected your character head over to plant B now you have 30 seconds until the wave starts so you will want to grow some basic plants for the first couple of waves but as you progress you will want to plant some healing plants and more of the effective plants, now aslong as the sunflowers do there job of healing and roses/peashooters do there job of getting the majority of the killls you should be fine. waves 5 and 10 are the only potentially difficult waves depending on the luck of the spin, when i did this i got lucky and didnt have any difficult opponents from the spins, if you do get a super wave for example you will want to plant some extra healing plants focus on crowd control like weeds and once you have taken as many as possible out focus on the boss work as a team use your special abilites providing everything has gone smoothly you will have completed all ten waves. i cannot confirm that if you die when escaping you will void the achievement so again work as a team and should all be fine for those that have played the first game this is much easier in comparision upon escaping you will unlock the achievement.

To sumarise
:Zen Peaks
:Zone B
:Two sunflowers
:Two of your own preference
:Teamwork
:constantly grow plants

clap

Edit: I should mention that the sunflower i was using was a power flower and not the basic one two roses were the basic flowers though

This was much easier than solo. I had fully upgraded Rose. 1 Sunflower, 1 Pea Shooter, and 1 Citron. The Pea Shooer and Citron jumped up on the roof.

Here is a tip in case you burn through your self revives and can't get back in to round.
Quit out of the game and re-join on one of the people still in game. You'll spawn back alive and can help finish the round.

If multiple people are out of action, do it one at a time so that the round keeps playing.

Not really a "solution" so to speak, but if anyone was wondering, yes, you can join in the middle of a game in progress with randoms (or anyone, I suppose) and still get the achievement. That's how I just got it. I jumped into a random match on Craaazy in the middle of Wave 4 and it popped after we escaped in the RV.

After countless attempts with SuperBrains/Scientists on several maps, I finally did it yesterday with the plants. I never got further than wave 8 before, but with the following setup I managed it on the first try, even though wave 10 was a super boss wave.

Mode: Solo Ops
Side: Plants
Map: Colizeum (in the middle)
Character: 4x Sunflower (I used Vampire Flower)

Pro:
- Anyone can quickly revive
- Massiv heal
- Self heal by vampire ability
- Sunflowers have more power than scientists, especially at long range

I personally would try to get this by searching for a Crazy difficulty ops game and doing it with multiple people, I did this on Garden Warfare 1 and easily got it.
