How to unlock the Double Dead achievement in State of Decay: Year-One - Definitive Guide

Look in the Community tab for Survivor who has the Powerhouse Skill, then level it to Level six (by finishing zobmies with cn_LB) Then you can learn the Defence Skill Double Kill.


Stand in the direction from where two Zombies are coming and hold cn_B + cn_LB to get a hand to hand double kill special attack.

Somehow I got the achievement, I followed the instructions but never performed the double kill animations, but it popped. Somewhat anti-climactic.

Why the hell do I just keep bunny hopping over the zombies head? This is stupid, unlocked moves should not take this much effort to pull off.

The issue with this that op didn't mention is that this is a counter. So you have to press the button LB + B when one of the two are attacking. Instead of the normal counter it will smash the heads together in slow mo.

This skill is called Double Kill, not double down. And this might not matter but you hold LB and press B, just in case its not working for ppl.
Apart from small details a good guide, thanks.

How do you choose a community member with POWERHOUSE so you can play as that member?

Answer: With no one else following you, walk up to another character. Tap Y. Choose for that character to take over for your current character. Just have to find the right person with the POWERHOUSE attribute.

Thumbs down for this guide. Everything should be typed out in text form step by step how to unlock this achievement. It should not just be a link to a video.

I hold LB then press B, and I just roll.
I hold B then press LB, and I just crouch.
And i have plenty of zombies in front of me.
Really annoying to get everything to work properly.

1000/1000G STATE OF DECAY for "E vee dub" on Thu, May 3rd 2018.

I finally got this achievement after I figured out that I had to select the skill and hold X to equip it.

Press up on your direction pad and scroll down from the far left tab under defensive skill and select double kill and hold the x button. The guide should clearly specify that you have to do this.
I spent a lot of time rolling & crouching because I never had this selected because the guide does not "guide" us to select the proper defensive skill. And I almost died a few times losing the character that I spent so much time leveling up its Powerhouse skill.

I just did this. It works. I followed the guide... I worked my dude's powerhouse skill to level 6, selected "Double kill" as my defensive skill, then walked up to a horde and immediately smashed their skulls together. Achievement popped right after.

You have to stand still, by the way. (It says it right there in the description on the game) "Hold LB + B while standing still to kill two enemies at once." If you're moving you'll roll.

i have 7 stars in powerhouse, i rarely used cn_LB. And is it possible that the defensive skill is called Double Kill since I do not see a defensive skilled called Double Down? (these are on Marcus)

You'll need a playable character with the "Powerhouse" skill. Press cn_up to open the menu, then cn_RB to access the "Community" tab. You can see each characters skills at the bottom of their character sheet. Select that character with cn_X.

Raise it to Level 6, this is done simply by fighting zombies. Make sure to take a few melee weapons, as well as health and stamina items. Doesn't take too long to raise it, so focus on completing other achievements while doing this.

Once you hit level 6 with Powerhouse (again, you can see its level by looking at the characters stats with cn_up). Then while on the character stat, use either cn_down or cn_LSd to go down until you reach "Defensive Skill". You will have two options, you need to select "Double Kill" by holding cn_X.

Now find a small group of zombies and use your new skill by pressing cn_LB + cn_B when they attack.
