How to unlock the Take Charge achievement in The Gunk - Definitive Guide

Suggest doing this on "Chapter 7: Alone" in the Wasteland. Here you'll get the best opportunity to get two "Gunk Beasts" to charge into one another. In the Wasteland chapter you need to clear pools of Gunk to survive, once you've cleared the third pool use this as the checkpoint to earn the achievement. As you continue on from pool three, a herd of three Gunk Beasts will appear on top of the hill. Walk up to them and simply get them to charge into one another and the achievement should pop. See the video for more detail.

After the Wastelands the next time you'll come across two Gunk Beasts is at the last boss. It can be tricky to do the achievement there as the boss can one shot them with his laser attack.

GTKrouwel83 mentions the best method for the last boss, is to pull both leavers/chains, so the boss is kneeling and not firing lasers. Now you can lure both together without worry of them dying. If you have the "Power Pulse" upgrade unlocked you can stun the Gunk Beast with cn_LT + cn_B to help line them up (credit ninjaraiden2003).

You can use your Pulse Cannon (LT and press B to fire) to stun the Gunk Beasts in place. Makes it much easier. As soon as I removed the tubes for the first phase I immediatly went back to the entrance door and allowed both beasts to spawn.

The right one aggro'd me so I would stun it while keeping the Gardener beams on me. Baited the beams fire to clear the gunk from the switches for me whilst keeping the 1 aggro'd Gunk Beast stun locked.

Then for the second I would just alternate shooting to stun each one whilst managing the beam. When it's firing I moved past the beast to my last switch. Let the beam clear the Gunk again and pulled the last lever and then made them collide.

Someone stated above doing both levers makes it easier as the Gardern laser beam stops. You can also stun one and lure the other to charge into it for the achievement.

The laser attack for the final boss, if you jump up on the pieces that you can hide behind you can get the laser higher and out the way. If both beasts die just kill yourself and try again.

For the final boss, I tried to get them to charge while he was still doing his laser attacks. Instead, it's easier to first pull the final two levers, because then he won't attack anymore, whereas the beasts will stay. Did it first try this way.

Worked for me during the final boss battle. As others said, just have to wait for two beasts to spawn during the second phase then pull the final two levers while keeping the beasts alive (stun helps keep them from the beams). After that it’s relatively simple. I got while not even trying because the room is so small the beasts collided.

I did it on the final boss fight and it did not unlock sadly.

Can confirm that it does work during the final boss fight unlike what Luke said before my comment. Just quickly pull the levers and stun the boss, then I used the pulse cannon to stun one of the beasts. The other rammed into it. Took a few seconds to pop however. Just long enough for me to think it didn't work. But then got it.

Doing it in Alone worked perfectly with the three after the third pool. Thanks!

Thanks to GTKrouwel83. Got this in the final boss room second time with this method. Saved me another playthrough!

The gardeners laser can kill the chargers, so it might take more than the first try using GTKrouwel83's method

Definitely very easy in the wasteland, I just ran around them until it popped, then carried on without killing them.

Haven't tried it yet, but does warping back to the Wastelands reset the Gunk Beasts? Don't fancy replaying the whole game if I can't unlock this at the final battle 😅

I don't think they do spawn. Which is annoying. Have to try the final battle.

I finally got this at the final battle. The spawning of the gunk beasts is a little bit tricky:
- only after pulling the first 2 chains and sucking the gardener, 2 Gunk Beasts spawn
- after this, if one dies, it does not respawn! only the last one dying respawns. So make sure to stun them and keep them out of the laser
- use the method described above and pull the other 2 chains to stop the gardener from killing them
- now you can make them charge into each other in peace

The easiest location to earn this is in Chapter 7. You will need to cleanse energy pools and the third one in this area will count as a checkpoint. Moving forward up the hill will spawn in three gunk beasts. These large enemies will charge at you if the see you. The idea here is to aggro all three of them at the same time, so that they all charge you. You will most likely get hit, but one of the other gunk beasts should run into the one that hit you if it is timed right. You can also use your Power Pulse upgrade to stun the gunk beast in place and then line up another to charge into it.
