How to unlock the Super Zen No Aimz achievement in Pool Nation FX - Definitive Guide
The key to getting this is Drop Stop (when the pockets catch on fire). While Drop Stop is activated no new balls are added to the table. This is activated based on points. As far as I can tell there is no real way to know or see how many points you have or how many points you made on a particular shot. However, shots worth the most points seem to be kick shots (where the ball hits 2 or 3 cushions before being potted) and also long ball streaks will help to activate Drop Stop. It is possible while Drop Stop is activated to make a shot that will also activate Drop Stop which will then refill the Drop Stop meter and extend your Drop Stop time. That being said i will tell you how I was able to get the 20 min endurance with no aim. I simply shot the cue ball at a medium to hard amount of force the second I was able to and just knocked balls around the table. You will miss. A lot. But, you will also make some crazy shots worth lots of points which will activate Drop Stop. I literally did it on my first attempt. I thought that it was a fluke so I did the same thing again and lasted over 18 min. So it may take a few tries and you will need luck but you will get it and it wont be near as stressful as trying to aim all of your shots. Comment or message me with any questions.

This worked perfectly. Previous best was 19:43 (I was pretty sad when that ended when it did). First attempt with this method was 12 minutes, second attempt 30:57.

Nope, 5 attempts in a row each only just reaching the 12min mark...

From the main menu, select Endurance and make sure that you turn aiming aids off. It doesn't matter what difficulty you play on, you can still unlock this, and the other endurance achievements. So go for Easy, which mainly only affects the speed of which balls drop on your table.
The aim of endurance mode is to pot balls quicker than new ones appear on your table. You want to only really go for balls that are either near pockets or lined up straight with the cue ball and the pocket. If there is nothing on, try setting up your next pot, rather than going for long hopeful shots that hardly ever come off.
Every so often you will get a 'Ball Stop Dropper' to use. This will appear on the bottom right of the screen saying push to use. As indicated, this stops balls appearing on your screen for 15 seconds. You can elect to save this for when your getting close to your limit of 24 on the table, however please note that you don't build up your next ball stopper until you have used your current one.
If you reach 20 minutes at the Endurance table you will also unlock all the following achievements:
For a total of 170GS! Happy Potting!
