How to unlock the Striking Skulls achievement in RAGE 2 - Definitive Guide
I would play this DLC on normal difficulty or lower, you can change your difficulty in the menu under Setting, and then General Settings, when going for this because you will be up close and personal with enemies and will take a lot of damage whilst dispatching enemies. It would also be a good idea to be upgraded from the base game with especially health upgrades.
Go to your 1st bone tower and just hack and slash with your sword on normal enemies. You should get or be most the way there to 100 kills in the 1st tower. I wouldn’t use the sword against Guardians (mini-bosses) in towers, they take to long to take down, use a more powerful weapon. If you don’t get the achievement you can mop up kills on the roads between towers or in the next Tower.
Most normal enemies on Normal difficulty will die in 1 to 2 hits.
Use Overdrive a lot for damage and health regen, you can get some good multipliers going.
The Sword can be upgraded but it’s done by completing towers so you will probably have the achievement before it’s upgraded, unless you plan on using the sword in the long run
Good luck with the Achievement.
You will be given the Sword of Transitus at the beginning of the DLC and you can begin straight away to kill enemies towards this achievement. The enemies are very plentiful and you will very likely get this achievement within the first two Bonetowers as there are dozens or enemies within each Bonetower, as well as some outside the tower and spread around the map, so 100 of them is a relatively small amount. Simply keep using it until the achievement unlocks.
You will definitely earn this in your first Bonetower. Although you can use normal guns, the sword itself is the best choice against the Skeletons. When equipped you can use your Shatter/Slam abilities with the sword to enhance them and the more Bone towers you finish, the more sword abilities you will unlock.
