How to unlock the Mass Murderer achievement in Skate 3 - Definitive Guide
There are 83 challenges available to kill. You must grab 80 of them, obviously leaving you with three 'passes'.
This is undoubtedly the hardest achievement in the game, but far from unobtainable.
You can view your current progress at the skate 3 website:

(You must log in)
Challenges that can be killed:
- 12 Film Challenges
- 19 Hall of Meat Challenges
- 16 Own The Spots
- 9 Pro Challenges
- 9 Death Races
- 9 Thrasher Photos
- 9 TSM Photos
The requirements to Kill the challenge can be found under Challenge Map > Challenges/Completed, and seen by selecting it.
NOTE: You can also kill DLC challenges in order to get this. Credit to JuicyLemurTats for that, which now makes the achievement that much easier.
General tips:
- Getting off your board and sprinting onto it (Hold A + then press Y) is faster than pushing. Use the speed to your advantage.
- Own the Spot challenges are best saved for online - you can jam with friends, whereas the other challenges will require you to both Kill it.
- The Trick Guide within the menus can be your saving grace for a lot of these. If you're not quite hitting the required trick every time, use it! Practice it! It's no good coming close and messing the trick up, that will only frustrate you.
Please feel free to leave any suggestions/problems you encounter. As I've said, this isn't the easiest achievement, so share your experiences.

I have recently unlocked this achievement and would like to add to this guide a useful technique I found on the web for making at least some of the challenges a bit easier to kill. Here's what to do:
1. Sign up for the challenge.
2. Skate/run around the challenge area, and take note of where the boundaries of the area are. Sometimes there will be an obvious boundary overlaid on the ground, but at the very least you will see a message appear on screen when you cross the boundaries.
3. Quit out of the challenge.
4. Return to the place(s) just OUTSIDE of the challenge area, and use the object dropper to place some rails or ramps or any object that will make the challenge easier for you to kill.
5. Sign up for the challenge again.
6. Now go back to the object(s) you placed and drag them to where they will be most useful. You might again see a message when you cross the boundaries, but if you are quick you can drag the object back within the challenge area straight away. If you take too long, you will be returned to the session marker, but the object will stay where you dragged it to, so just go and drag it some more. It is also worthwhile to add the object to the session marker once placed exactly where you want them, so they will reset to the intended position each time.
7. Kill the challenge. :)
The most important point here is that the objects you place must be outside of the challenge area. When you sign up for the challenge, the area is cleared of any unintended objects, so if you drag them in first they will disappear on you. Dragging them in from outside the area while the challenge is active is the only way.
This helped me particularly on "Dozer Grind" and "Sign of the Grinds", two challenges where a lot of height off your ollies is required - I dropped and dragged in a dragon rail object to help get the height in the air more easily.

I got 3 Spots, that I have to kill. So I can play "Own the Spot" online and when someone reached the kill target score, I killed the spot aswell? Or am I wrong now?

This is the hardest achievement to get in this game, as 'killing' some of the objectives is just plain ridiculous. To 'kill' an objective, you must complete more than what is asked. When you go to accept a challenge, sometimes where the objective details are displayed, you will see it flash and tell you the 'Killed' objectives. If you have completed a challenge already, you can go back and retry which will give you the "Kill it" option. Ex. (owned) Beat a score of 1000 (killed) Beat a score of 1500. There are only 83 challenges that you can kill in the single player.
The challenge types that you can (kill/how many there are) is as follows.
- Films 12/12
- Hall of Meat 19/20
- Own the Spot 16/16
- Pros 9/19
- Races 9/9
- Thrasher Photos 9/9
- TSM Photos 9/9
This is the hardest trophy in the game, and will come over time. In order to "Kill" a challenge, you must do more than is asked when you first accepted it. You will have to go back and retry every challenge after owning it so you can see the "Kill" objectives. These are harder than "Owning" objectives, so some challenges might be pretty tricky. Don't be afraid to switch to easy difficulty if you are having trouble, because killing some of these challenges can be ridiculous. There are a total of 83 Challenges you can "Kill" in the Career. Here is a list of all the "Kill-able" challenges in each category:
Films 12/12
Hall of Meat 19/20
Own the Spot 16/16
Pros 9/19
Races 9/9
Thrasher Photos 9/9
TSM Photos 9/9

Together with the tasks from the add-ons, you can complete 105 tests on killed:
The Art Gallery 8/9
Danny Way's Hawaiian Dream 6/11
Films 12/12
Hall of Meat 19/20
Maloof Money Cup 4/7
Own The Spot 16/16
Pros 9/19
Races 9/9
After Dark 4/4
Thrasher Photos 9/9
TSM Photos 9/9
kills from add-ons are also taken into account and it is not necessary to perform everything. You can choose easier tasks. Most kills are 4-5 out of 10 in difficulty, so won't make you wait long
