How to unlock the Dark Forces achievement in STAR WARS Battlefront II - Definitive Guide

Easily done in Prologue: The Cleaner or Mission 1: The Battle of Endor. While playing as Iden, you'll charge your droid by killing enemies and completing objectives, as shown by the meter which fills near the bottom of the screen. When the meter is full, you can use Y to activate the droid onto an enemy, and it will go and shock them.

The goal of the achievement is to have the droid shock and kill 3 enemies in 1 attack which is easily done with any group of 3+ enemies standing next to each other. You will have many opportunities during the Prologue as your escaping the ship, or it can also be done extremely easily at the very beginning of Mission 1, after using stealth to take down the first 2 enemies. There should be a group of 3 enemies directly ahead of you which will group up often near the door.

Not sure if a glitch or they took it out, but I am not getting any droid charge by doing a stealth takedown on the first 2 guys.

I went and took out other team then one by the bunker and got a stun charge. The bunker team was still going about their normal procedure when I got there and sent the drone in and stunned them.

Ok I got it. What I did was headshot the first 2 people for 1/4 charge. Then I just went to the right trying to get 2 more headshots. I ended up getting seen going for my last one and got into a big fire fight. But that didn't mess the achievement up. The guys all the way to the left that group up like in Maka's videos are oblivious to the shooting. So it's still very easy, you just need to go about it a little different.

This achievement can also be done on the third mission I think it is, The very same mission with the imperial star destroyer the The Dauntless

Fyi, you CANNOT do this achievement simply by loading the second mission. Your droid is not charged enough at the time.

I think people seem to have missed the fact that if you slice the supply crate on the left at the start of mission 1 you get a full charge for your droid. No need to worry about headshots or other groups! I did just this today and got the pop.

Endor doesn't work as explained. Takedowns don't provide a charge and the crate gives you less than half the bar needed. I had to headshot the first two enemies instead of stealth killing.

One of the earlier places where you can do this is in mission 1 called "The Battle of Endor". Start the mission and kill the first 2 enemies silently with takedowns. Go further until you see the bunker. In front of the bunker are 3 enemies, the left enemy leaves the bunker shortly and then comes back. When all three enemies are together use your droid with Y on the enemy in the middle.

I did this 3 different times in the Prologue and the achievement didn't unlock. Anyone else have any issues with this not unlocking?

The other solutions here aren't very good since apparently you don't generate droid energy from stealth takedowns anymore. Here's an updated strategy for how you can get this achievement in five minutes.

* Fire up The Battle of Endor on easy (explorer) difficulty.
* Walk forward and take out the two guards on the path with stealth takedowns.
* Head over to the right and take out the group by the fallen walker.
* Go back to the starting position. The other three dudes at the bunker should still be there.
* You need to get close to zap them. There is a giant tree trunk next to a much smaller broken tree trunk to the left of the path to the bunker and, just beyond that, a tall tree stump. You can crouch walk behind these and not get detected until you are right on top of them.
* Aim at the middle person and press Y to deploy your droid.

When I went to the right, I got spotted by a roving patrol pretty quickly which started a firefight. The three bunker troops were still there, though, even after all the noise. I think they don't move unless you directly engage them. You should probably keep to the right as much as possible and don't use grenades just in case.

Mission 1, The Battle of Endor is the easiest place to get this. Use the solution above but if you mess up there are tons of groups of enemies in this mission. Towards the end there will be groups of 5 that can easily be all shocked at once.

Mission 1 - The Battle of Endor
- Right at the start take the 2 rebels out and walk down the path.
- At the end of the path you will see 3 rebels
- Wait for them to stand near each other
- Press cn_Y to deploy your droid
- If you timed it right all of them will get shocked smile

Here's a quick video I made

This achievement can be met at any point throughout the main game and DLC missions where you find yourself up against a group of 3 or more enemy npcs.

From my own experience of grinding through the missions, I actually found a plethora of opportunities during my run-through of the "Resurrection" dlc.

Specifically, during the mission, "Protect Zay", you will find groups of enemies ducking behind barricades and exiting landed ships. The advantage is, this is during a conflict between two factions.

The npcs are more focused on the opposing faction than they are on you and don't typically target you until after they have already taken out the aggressor. This leaves you to somewhat leisurely zap them with your droid while the are distracted.

I hope this helps!

Mission 1: The Cleaner
In the first mission, after getting the assault rifle you'll have to hold off enemies while your robot opens a door. Do not shoot the door panel to close the door behind you. Once the enemies make it to you, use the drone to shock them (Triangle/Y). You can restart the checkpoint if it fails.

Here is a video guide with English commentary!

A short ways into the mission "The Storm", soon after you get the objective "destroy anti air weapons", you'll come outside and see a group of 6 enemies marching in formation down the street. Maintain stealth and wait a few seconds and they're easy pickings. You should have a full charge from kills earlier. I was on the easiest difficulty, not sure if it makes a difference with charge rate or range as it was my first playthrough.

In case anyone missed it on Mission 1, in Mission 4 right before the scout achievement there are 8 guards walking by, stun them and you will get this achievement, then reload the checkpoint

This trophy can be obtained either during your story playthrough or through chapter select after you’ve completed the story.

Although there’s many places with enough enemies to do this during the campaign, the easiest opportunity to obtain this presents itself right away in the first mission called “The Cleaner”. When your objective is to reach the MC80 airlock, continue until your droid takes a while to open a door for you and you get a tutorial about how you can shoot door panels to close them. Instead of actually shooting the panel to close the door behind you, wait for a couple of seconds until a group of enemies come running down the stairs. As soon as they’re grouped up press to shock them and the trophy should pop.

If you fail the above, just let the enemies kill you to get another try. Note that for the droid to have the ability to shock it needs to be fully charged, so you might have to shoot a few enemies to get it to charge again.

For visual aid on this trophy please refer THIS video, courtesy of PS4Trophies.

Level: Prologue - The Cleaner
Mission: RENDEZVOUS WITH THE CORVUS
Objective: Reach the MC80 Airlock

I believe the earliest opportunity to get this achievement is in the Prologue mission "The Cleaner" I actually unlocked it without knowing what I was going for immediately after getting the A280C blaster rifle after purging the intercepted message when there is a big group rushing you. however, I replayed a few times and by far the easiest place to get this consistently is just after that initial room when you get back into the multi-level room after clearing the troop that comes in from the left and the two that run onto the catwalk in front of you. The key is the 4 troops on the very bottom level if you look all the way down you can see there are 4 troops basically running around trying to get a good sight on you but there is very little room for them to do so hence, they stay very close together.

I am including a video to show one of my attempts where I had to maneuver around a little to get them to line up but all the other times, I was able to send the shock without much movement. This spot is also nice because if you happen to misfire you can reload the checkpoint and try again with plenty of troops to charge up your shock ability between the checkpoint and this area. I will say I got 3 troop shocked on all 5 attempts I tried in this area.

Here is a video in case there is any confusion on where I am talking about. Also in case you forgot you send the droid out for a shock with cn_Y. Good Luck!
