How to unlock the Bringin' the Heat achievement in Saints Row IV: Re-Elected - Definitive Guide

The Buff is a Superpower and the element you need for this achievement is Fire so you want to equip the Superpower-Buff and the Element-Fire.
The easiest and fastest way to get this is to go to the Alien controlled area in Steelport (South of New Colvin and East of downtown should also be white on the map)
Fully upgrade the heavy mini-gun (or a gun you are more comfortable with) and the Superpower-Buff. Activate Buff and kill enemies with the mini-gun dont kill enemies if you dont have that fire wall around you and dont get to close to aliens when you activate it because it wont count as a kill, and dont shoot cars because they do not count as kills if they kill aliens.

"There's a virus upload side quest in Pierce's quest line that has one wave of 101 enemies in Genki's suit to kill. I used this quest to do all my kills-related challenges. Just kill about 90+, leave, wait for mission to expire, and then restart mission.~(neeker75)
Hopes this helps pm me or comment if you have any questions or anything to add to the solution. If you give me a negative vote please comment or pm why so i can fix it.

I'd also like to add that you have to complete "Blast From The Past" main mission before you get the Buff superpower, so there's no "quick & easy" way to get this achievement unless you've got a chunk through the story

Can you replay side missions like you can the DLC?

For me, the kills during that infection weren't counting; but luckily the notoriety/heat w/e was going up during free roam and I started shooting the aliens turned from cops while the power was activated and I was setting them on fire it started going up and counting.

The other solution is 100% false. You can just set enemies on fire with the fire buff for it to count.

Go to the fight club in Loren square (middle of the map). It's the hard difficulty one.

Beat the first wave. The second wave is king of the hill, go stand on the main floor away from the control spot. Tons of enemies with bats will come and attack you. Just turn on your fire buff and watch the enemies burn. Shouldn't take more than a few minutes.

I also did my other superpowers here and just let the timer run out. Lots of quick and easy kills here.

See "I Am Become Death" for a good place to grind this achievement.

The buff ability is another one that comes kinda late in the game. What it does is that it surrounds you with fire, lightning, and frost (freeze) each one having different behaviors. For this achievement we just need the fire buff which is the one you get for obtaining the buff ability. To select buff during gameplay press . Then to activate buff press . You can light enemies on fire by getting close to them or shooting them whiled buffed with fire.

Note: You can only burn aliens to get this trophy. Police, Genkis etc. do not count!

Fire Buff is the fourth option of attack Super Power and can be switched to with . This changes your bullets into ones that set the enemy on fire, and sets fire to enemies you walk past closely while it is active after pressing . Either way of killing them will count as long as they die from the fire. Kill 100 Aliens with this to unlock the trophy.

From my observations and the mini-boost on the "Fist" it is not necessary to kill the Dzyntsev, it is enough to simply turn on the ability on them (pad down ), run around everyone and escape from the conflict zone... And so on until victory

Enemies must catch fire for it to count.
