Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare

UPDATE 4/16/2014 --
The latest DLC has patched this and this method is no longer as safe as it was. Zombies will now jump up on to the arch with you.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Easiest way I found was to use load up Sharkbite Shores and use the left beach spawn. With a Pea Shooter in Hyper Mode you can jump up onto the stone archway and kill the zombies from up there. Make sure to replace your potted plants as needed between rounds as well. Can be done with 4 Pea Shooters or a mixed team.

While up there most enemies either can't hit you or don't except for Foot Soldiers. Watch out for them shooting or throwing a grenade at you. I never had 1 jump up there with me (not sure if they can) but you can easily run to the far side of the arch and be safe from them. Yeti's can also drop ice on you but if you move around on the arch you can avoid it.

Video contains most of Wave 10 + Extraction

Bugged Achievement - Many people have reported not getting the achievement if everyone doesn't escape so be extra careful and make sure everyone is prepared to make the run to the pickup point. It is still possible to get the achievement if everyone doesn't make it to the point but not guaranteed.

Note: You do not need to play the whole game. You just need to be in the game at the end to get credit or it.

If you are having problems with horrible randoms you can do this SOLO and Zombies numbers DO scale with players. Thanks xSRYANx for this note.

EDIT: 12/3/14
I am currently out of sticker packs, and will not have enough to help others with this for a while. Been too many other releases recently to have the time to build up my pots again. Will update when this changes.
Method still works though, the fire pea was slightly nerfed in an update.


After trying many other suggested methods and always failing on wave 10 or the evac, I finally found a way that worked great. It combines some tips, while also adding my own.

I only used one revive, and it was at the very last second of the evac part. This method does not require, but relies on having someone use the Smartglass companion app to help you. This works for 1-4 players as well. If more then 1 player needs the achievement, don't invite them until wave 10. Play through 1-9 by yourself. Have them in the party, but make sure they are not listed as "in your game" or in the same multiplayer session (even if they didn't accept the invite). If they are, have them snap the party, and go to leave, "multiplayer". Once wave 10 starts, double tap the guide button to switch to the snapped party, invite party to game, and have them accept right away. They should all be fire or ice peas if possible. If not, any pea should be ok.

You will need about 30 fire peashooter pots, 30 ice peashooter pots, 10 doom shrooms, the Sombrero Bean Bomb and Fire Peashooter unlocked. Have a second person start up the Xbox One Smartglass app on a tablet/Windows 8 PC and be ready to help you.

Person 2 on the Smartglass app will need to focus on the dropping "suns" which is how you get the points needed to help the player. The assists you want to focus on are the health pots, the air strikes, and the revive. Maybe play one practice round so player 2 learns how to use Boss Mode.

Person 1 playing the game, go to Sharkbite Shores, and use the spot on the left with the archway you can get up on. As soon as the garden is planted, put the Ice pots all around it. There is one lone pot slightly ahead of the garden in front of a rock. Put a Doomshroom there to blow up any Zombies that are getting close. Put the fire peas in the four pots in front of the archway rock, and a fifth one by the water.

In between rounds I would start at the garden and replace any pots there, move towards the water if that one was down, then circle around the front of the archway replacing the pots that needed it. For the most part, you should have enough time to replace them after every round as it takes some time for the zombies to get to you. Then use Hyper to jump up on the arch.


Keep an eye on where the zombies are coming from. Watch for where the pots are shooting at. Just help the pots as much as you can, and be ready to drop Sombrero bombs near the pots if they get over run.

Have the person on Smartglass drop health pots on the archway with you so you can be healed. In the middle of the arch there is some cover if the soldier zombie starts shooting you from the roof of the building next to you. They should use air strikes on tombstones (it wont kill the tombstone, but will kill or damage the zombies that spawn there), and on the garden if any make it through. To use an assist on the smart glass, you click and drag, or touch and drag the assist you want, to where you want it, then let go. If using a revive, make sure its right on the player icon or it will be wasted.

As long as you replace all the pots and help the pots enough, your garden shouldn't be touched. I made it to wave 9 before it took one hit. By the end it still had over 90% health.

Just keep working through it, getting the health pots dropped on you as needed or in between rounds. At wave 10, invite anyone in your party that needs the achievement, or just keep doing as you were doing.

The Disco zombie will come up on the rock with you. Make sure to have a bomb ready for him, and a health plant next to you, and use the little rocks for cover. If there is an air strike ready, use it on him as well. If you get the vampire boss, he can probably get up there with you too, and is a pain to kill. I did not have to fight him though (thinking he doesn't spawn for one player).


Last step, the evac. As others have said, wait on the rock until there is about 45 seconds left. Save a Sombrero bomb for the trip as well. At this point most of the bigger zombies should be around you, so jump off, and boost away. Head towards the RV while trying to avoid the tombstone areas. When you start getting shot in the back after passing the under the bridge, turn and drop your bomb. Then turn back and keep running. Once in the circle, you will probably getting KOed which is a good thing. When there is 2-3 seconds left, use a revive. At this point you should still have all 3 if everything went well for you, but all you need is one. Make sure all players are in the circle, and are all revived in the last 2 seconds.

Timer hits 0, and you win and should get the achievement.


If you cant get it on your own, set up a boost session and message me on here. If I have time, I can try to make it. It takes 15-20 minutes. I will play through the first 9 waves, then invite you for the 10th. If we can get 3 players at once, that would save the most time for me.

Incredibly easy to do with as low as 2 people (depending on skill).

I guess I would call it the Doomshroom Apocalypse.

Start up a game on the Crash Site map (day or night shouldn't make much of a difference, I play day though). Make sure you have at least 1 Peashooter ( prefer the Berry shooter or Fire) and 1 Sunflower. Build your garden in the middle of the bridge.

On the outside flower pots just plant repeaters, fire peas, or gatling peas for the first few waves. In the inside ones by the garden plant Doomshrooms and Bamboo Shoots.
Make sure you have a lot of plants to plant. Especially Doomshrooms, Bamboo, and any Ice.

Stay in the garden area and defend both openings. It is very easy to do this with potted plants as defense. Sunflower needs to make sure not only that the teammates are healed, but any severely wounded plants as well.

If you have more than 2 people, then an extra peashooter and a cactus would be perfect. Cactus can set up defenses at each end of the bridge and pick off zombies from afar.

Once you start getting into the later waves (8, 9, and 10) use exclusively Doomshrooms.
During extraction plant a Doomshroom and have the Sunflower drop a healing flower.

Using this method almost makes destroying Crazy far too easy and you will take minimal garden damage.

I finished this with only myself and another person playing Sunflower.

Try it out and give me your thoughts.

Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare - Garden Crazy \ Jardim doidão - Achievement

Okay, here's how I and 3 mates did.

Pick Garden Center. Make sure you have 1 Sunflower to heal, and 3 Peashooters.

Go to the right, I think it's a BONUS Garden you can use, it's this end with a giant statue.

One peashooter takes the left path, and one takes the right path.

Here's the best part. The last peashooter jumps on top of the statue. (THIS IS DONE ON 4/20 AFTER THE LATEST PATCH)

On top of the statue, you'll pretty much be untouched, and the same time, be extremely usefull, when it comes to attacking.

I just attacked with normal peashots, and Gatling. The boss's like Yeti, couldn't do anything to me, and while the rest of the party, just helped attacking, and defended the Garden, I just spammed attack the Yeti or Guang-whatever.

I can't assure it will work for you, but it worked for us on the first try.

Just did this now.

Crash zone, bridge defence.

Actually plants don't matter too much we used a mixture of:

Goop/ice - to slow
bamboo is great for barage zone damage
fire shooter are good for long range on the outsides
doom shrooms and caribans work but we only had a few

Mainly using sunflower a good one can lay down sunbeam and heal almost at the same time whilst dropping healing plants, just be sure to move around.

We had a garganutan round super boss and it makes it almost impossible, you can run and avoid them round in circles under the bridge but they are very difficult.

on the final round we had disco stu super boss and this is easily done with fire to burn them long distance, gattling pea to drain them and sunbeam mixture - we had two sunflowers and two peas and if you get 3 in the door way and lay into them as quickly as possible you can take down three quickly.

On the final wave extraction have one or two as a distraction on the bridge moving around and one reserve to stay alive in the roof above the extraction zone, then in the last seconds lay down healing plants in the zone and defend it until escape

rejoice the extraction is very easy compared to others.
