How to unlock the I Am Become Death achievement in Saints Row IV - Definitive Guide

I found a very fast method that nets more than 100 kills in 5 min. Watch my video. I hope it would be helpful=) P.S. You should finish activity to save ur kills

Fyi...the confusion is in the wording of achv, it's not kills by using any of the powers, it's kills using a COMBINATION of powers! I killed hundreds with stomp or tk after my counter was at 550 and never got to 600, then I started using blast/stomp and made progress again.

The easiest I found, once at 50 and maxd out, was the level in this solution, round 2, then using freeze blast and fire buff, running around in circles and freezing the guys chasing you that are on fire from the buff. Super easy and fast, as long as you stay out of the green zone. Once round ends (timer runs out) simply retry.

Why so many negative voices?=( I think my solution is better for those who dont want/cant reload final mission. And it is pretty fast, I net 350 kills in ~15 min

I have played this fight club about 5 times and gotten about 100 kills each time and I have all of the super power kills achievements, but since I've been playing this fight club I have yet to see a milestone tracker pop up like in the video :/

I finally got a milestone to pop. For some reason it showed up that I was at 800. Then, after about 3 more matches, it said 850. Is there supposed to be some other way to kill them that I'm missing? I'm using the electric buff and then using the fireball every time I have the chance

This strategy works but i found it much quicker to do this with blast then stomp

i was just wondering i have the 1000 kills challenge completed but i don't have the achievement are they separate like one for just killing a 1000 and an achievement for killing them with super powers or did i get glitched?

Thanks for this! However, you do NOT need to finish the activity for the kills to count, unless you mean challenges? In which case I don't know. But I was purely going for this achievement and killed until the timer ran out then EXITed the activity and went again. Took me 3 rounds from 400/1000 that way :)

Tom RT is right! Just keep killing the rushers in round 2 until time expires and then exit. Jump back in and it does not reset your count. Popped for me with this method

@TheAZNmike: This one is specifically for aliens and a combo of powers. The 1000 kills Challenge is simply that, 1000 kills with no specificity of aliens or powers iirc, meaning gun kills and mascots for instance count towards it. If the litlle 'Alien Kill' isn't popping up on your sidebar, it doesn't count for this achievement. I got that kill challenge done about halfway through the game, but this didn't have more than about 300 till I started farming/post-game play.

@ScuzzyBunny: Letting the timer run out does not work. You must finish the activity for the kills to count. I had the 650 kill pop up while in it, kept killing till time ran out, retried, and it went back to the 450 pop up when I retried.

@Rhyolitic, letting the timer run out does work. It's how I got it. You must exit first rather than retrying.

I recommend different powers. Use the Freeze Buff and then stomp. I was getting 5-10 kills per stomp. Also, while they're frozen is a good time to fluff out your 50 taunts.

Oh, so it's a "combination". I was wondering why my counter stopped at 600. Did this and got it done in less than 15 minutes. Let time ran down, exit activity, tried again. Got the 50 taunts here as well, from zero to 50 in one round. For good measure, I also got the gold medal (finally) afterwards. Brilliant solution.

Thumbs up from me! Easiest method by far. As noted above, freeze then stomp works best. Be sure to EXIT and not RETRY if your timer runs out. That way, your kills will still count.

use the freeze. jump up when a lot of guys are near you freeze them then hit one and most will die. I got over 100 in ne round

All I did was use the stomp power without combining it with anything else and it worked just fine. I had the death from above skill so I would jump up and hold LT to hover in the air to avoid getting knocked around, then hit RB to use the stomp power and repeat as necessary (no, I did not hit RT to use death from above, I hit RB to use stomp.)

Great solution! I had all my abilities maxed and did 250 in my first go (I was already at 700) so in 2 runs I was done.

I just kept standing still with freeze buff and then stomping twice. Then waiting for a few guys taking hits and using freeze blast to kill 6-8 and rince and repeat. No need to keep jumping if you have maxed abilities :)

This challenge can bug if you play solo and co-op alternately on same game progress. If it happen, just exit from the game to dashboard, start the game again and load your preferred save from "Campaign" or "Co-op Campaign". Do not choose the "Continue" option on main menu. Anyway, I recomend try this challenge solo.

If you stand on one of the thin pillars at the edge of the arena, you can be in range with your buffs and keep them from being able to hit you. I used freeze buff and fire blast on them.

I played about an hour of this and none of my kills counted. I primarily used TK. AbioticEel13's method seems to work as I've had the counter show up.

go to the location in the videos or the pic and farm the virus injection don’t let the kills at the top of the screen go past 101 try 99-100 or to be safe 98 instead of completing the virus injections press start and cancel all you kill will count and you can do it unlimited time so you can get easy

If you have completed the game 100% or already don the mini game you can go back to a save ware you haven’t or start new game

I found another method for grinding this achievement, that was pretty fast according to me, and easier than the method using Buff and Fireball.

The location remains the same, the second wave of the Hard Superpower Fight Club instance in Loren Square.

Originally I was grinding the Super Stomp Kills, and I found that while doing that. What you want to do is clear the first wave of the instance, then grind during the King of the Hill.
What differs is that the combination I'm using is : Death from above + Super Stomp.

The way to do : Jump, remain in the air by keeping LT, thus triggering Death from above. Then when there are a few of the ennemies below you, launch Super Stomp. It will kill anyone below, and credit toward the 1000 combination kills.

I usually get 5 to 10 kills per stomp, but I rarely lose time by getting hit by the goons. Hope it helps you all. :D

This works great! (much better than 2nd Dominatrix mission). I got around 150 kills each game of Hard SFC. I wanted to complete the activity to guarantee it kept the kills, and 100+ kills is nice.

Tip: complete rounds 1 and 3 and 4 as fast as possible, using maxed out punches/kicks. There are only 5-6 enemies in waves 1 and 3 and you can make that up in 10 seconds during round 2 grinding. Save about 1:15-1:30 left for waves 3 and 4.

Another excellent place to grind any remaining kills IF you have 'The Dominatrix' dlc is at the start of the 2nd mission in said dlc.The 1st waypoint in Steelport is also a great place to grind the 3 weapon kills achievements that come with the dlc,its right next to a 'Friendly Fire' so you can upgrade those weapons,grind out those kills AND finish any remaining 'Super-Power' kills as they do count towards THIS achievement.It just unlocked for me there.smile

1. FOR ETD DLC OWNERS! In second mission, where you are fighting with Dominatrix for the first time, there is a Friendly Fire area. Don't go to Pierce, just stay here. Every 15-20 second 4 enemy cars ( packed with 4 slavers) will be heading towards you. (Beware for grenades) You can get this way other 3 DLC achievements: the ,,OMGWTFBBQ", ,,Hello Little Friend" and ,,Ultimate Hot Potato".
2. For people that completed the story: In nearly middle of the map is Super Fight Club activity on Hard difficulty. On second wave there is a King of the Hill. Instead of being in the circle, just kill those bastards with any power you desire.

I upgraded AssasinCorvo's and BLACKandBIG's solutions.
If you downvote this solution, please let me know why.

I have another alternative method. This got me the the remaining 350 kills I needed in about 30 minutes. It was a very simple method that got a lot of quick kills. Go to the mission Game of Clones, which seems to be toward the end of the game (it is the mission that gets you the buff power). There is a constant onslaught of enemies that will attack you when this mission is active. I just super jumped and then used the rock Stomp power. I was going for the super stomp achievement when I noticed that this was greatly increasing my counter for this achievement. Just kill the enemies around you, then more will quickly come after you. Kill them as noted above. Repeat.

In the fight club missions the enemies count as aliens :)


Simply do a fight club mission, and farm enemies during the king of the hill rounds - but make sure you win the entire thing else your kills won't be saved!

They will be saved so long as you EXIT the arena after you fail instead of retrying, I obtained other challenges by doing this.

You can go through Fight Club several times - During “King of the Hill”:

  • They spam endlessly!
  • Weak (without tanks and planes)
  • They are considered aliens!!!
  • + You can also do:

Many abilities slow down getting the trophy. I used telekinesis to throw enemies into walls or throw things at them. The main thing is to make sure that telekines kill is written at the top right. These kills definitely count.

If you missed the task virus. Where you can do 100 kills, then I advise you to go after completing the game to the hard arena. There in the second stage blacks climb endlessly. Kill them with your abilities. You definitely need to finish the arena. Otherwise the kills will not count. I beat them until 2- x minutes approximately. When there were 2 minutes left, I finished the arena and so in one arena I could make about a hundred kilos. profit.
