How to unlock the Pest Control achievement in Warframe - Definitive Guide

April 2019 Update: With the Plains of Eidolon remaster now on consoles, animals are no longer as prevalent as they once were before. They can still spawn randomly but I only found one set of birds that spawned and it wasn't a consistent spawn. I feel for the people who didn't do this achievement before the update as it will take considerably longer now and be much harder as the enemies are relentless in Plains.

If you've already done the following achievement then you should already know how to hunt. If not, I've given a brief explanation below and included a video.

WarframeAnimal LoverThe Animal Lover achievement in Warframe worth 166 pointsComplete 10 perfect Conservation captures in Orb Vallis


As of now, the easiest method is to purchase a Kuaka lure from Master Teasonai in Cetus for 500 standing and the Tranq Rifle from The Business in Fortuna for 500 standing (not sure if the tranq rifle is actually required to start the hunts). Once you have both of those you will load into the Plains of Eidolon. Pull out your lure and travel to the blue icons that pop up. Follow the tracks to the next objective. Match the call with the little mini-game that pops up on the right. Get somewhere high up and out of the way so the animals don't see you. When the Kuakas come out, kill all 3 and repeat until you have the achievement.

Here's a video (credit to ThatReallyGrossGuy on YouTube) showing the basics of hunting. Note that it is on Orb Vallis but it is the same on Plains.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following is now outdated as of April 2019.

Here is 7 guaranteed spawn locations for birds to kill. These will always be here. I recommend spawning in solo.

Start off in the Plains of Eidolon by shooting the bird directly above and in front of you. Run all the way to the immediate left side of the map and shoot the two there. Turn to the right and run towards the phallic shaped rock and shoot the 4 birds here. You can then quit at this point to Cetus or Orbiter and repeat. 15 runs at ~2 mins per run with load times will net you this achievement in about 30 minutes.

I found another reliable spot to grind this (until this shit game gets patched again). I managed to get 75 kills in about an hour using this method:
- travel to the shore line south of twin horns. You’ll see an orange marker in the area to contact konzu.
- in front of the marker there’s also a dead shark looking thing.
- approach the left side and you’ll see 1-3 kuaka spawn on or near the shark. Kill them. Any that you miss will make a run for the right side but just run into the rocks for an easy kill.
- using your archwing, travel towards twin horns (I only travelled to the white mountain marker on the map). Do a 180 and touch down back at the orange marker.
- approach the shark again and get 1-3 more kills.
- grind kills until done.
- learn from me and invest your time in a better game lol

Why shoot if you can make it happen without any weapons - load the easiest bounty and run around with Ember and have the WoF active. :) That's how I did it.

Using an Archwing will also make the travel time faster if you have those and don't mind using them for this. When you're using the Archwing it may be faster to just fly back to Cetus, and then go back outside rather than quitting out, 'cause quitting out to Cetus takes you to where the ship drops you off. So you'd be waiting for the loading time to go back there, have a little extra distance to run to the gate, and maybe it's just me but when I first arrive at Cetus the frame rate is absolutely horrible so that makes that walk feel even longer haha.

I was going to make this guide because it said there are no guides on the main page. This is exactly what I did. Good find.

@studlybambi Same here lmao. Had a video ready, clicked on the add a guide, but turns out there actually was one and it was the same spot I did. Oh well, as long as the information gets out there that's fine with me.

There are about three or four areas around the rock and surrounding flat areas (but not passing the strip of water) just outside of the gate that the birds like to sit at and two or so locations for a rabbit or two. I'm currently just running laps with Ember getting them, rolling 50-100m away for them to spawn in again, and repeating. Might save a few minutes compared to this strat since you don't have to deal with load times.

My tracking has bugged - stopped at 95/100. I keep shooting birds and bunnies, but no tracking pops up in game, and no achievement progress is calculated.

I am getting really tired of glitchy achievements...angry

If you wanna add this in there for people to use, there is a helpful bit. Use the tranq rifle around the entrace ro the plains as there are now about 7 spawn spots for both birds and rats within about 300 yards of the gate. Tranq rifles thermal scope allows you to spot them easier. Then either a large aoe weapon or frame to roll in and end them.

Yo everyone stop sweating, I can confirm "Tears 0f Wolves' " method works the best and fastest if you want to get this done quickly. Just did that as of today!

To get the animals to spawn, you need to use Tranq rifle. Once I bought it, they spawned in bunches.

Tranq rifle is way to go. It took no more than 30 mins.

If you're working on all of the Plains achievements, this won't take any focused effort to get. I completed it incidentally with randomly spawned animals while working on Tomb Looter, Plains Prospector, and Champion of the People. I still have another 38 km left to finish Marathoner as well. If you're still short of 100, skip messing around with the lures and travel the plains at night. Groups of 4 or more kavats are common all over the map.

Mine is glitched and stuck. Hoping I can fix it. It was at 71%. Went and killed the remaining 29 and the in game counter for the challenge showed progress along the way. When I hit the 100 there was no pop. Achievement tracker still showed 71%. I went back to Orbiter and looked at my profile which was now showing 71 as well. Went back to the plains and killed more animals and didn't see any progress. It continues not to show progress :(

This is a guide for a quick method in order to get the achievement
You just need to get to the Plains of Eidolon on Earth, follow the steps on the video
It took me around 1 hour to get all the kills
Happy hunting!! toast

This little bug in the game was taught to me by some friends to gain experience with the Plains of Eidolones faction. but I took advantage of it to get my achievement of killing 100 enemies in less than 15 minutes. The Warframe doesn't matter, but I use Equinox, for its ability to sleep enemies, but feel free to use the Warframe of your choice. Also note that you need the "Archwing" gadget. They are very helpful portable wings in the Valley of Eidolon and the Orb.

- First of all, make sure you are playing individually, in the upper part of the browser you can do it, so that no one else joins your game.
- Select The Earth and go straight to the Plains of Eidolon as indicated in the video. -Within the Valley, go to the left side of the entrance door, you will find a kind of giant shark, dead on the beach.
- Get on the rock as the video indicates and use your Archwing wings, now just drop sea. The use of Archwing wings is very necessary, they make you reappear in the same place where they were deployed.
-You Appear on the rocks; look up at the dead shark and you will notice that sometimes 1-3 mice appear. (I no longer remember his name). Take out your melee weapon and eliminate them.
-Go back to the rock and repeat the process as the video indicates. In some occasions, the mice do not appear, so you must commit suicide in the Sea until they appear. It is the easiest method I found.

good luck.

Only two beasts are on the Plains: Condrocs and Kuaka. They are found all over the plains in groups of 1 to 3. You need to kill 100 of any combination of the two. Below is a map I have made to show the locations I regularly found the beasts. Once you run the route, exit mission to the orbiter and then re-enter the plains and repeat until 100 are killed.

At first I suffered, looking for random animals, of which there were not enough. I discovered the following. There are 7 birds that always sleep in one place.

1st - flies immediately at the entrance to the plains
2 more - turn left and run all the way to the sea. You'll see there.
4 more - we run further along the sea to the tower. They circle above her.

Then we leave the plains and enter again. The birds will be there.

The stolen Dargin has endless cartridges, fly up to the water where there are a lot of birds (video in the previous tip), kill them and wait in the air, a flock of birds of 3 or 2 birds will appear on the ground nearby, kill them, fly 10 meters to the side and wait again. They sleep quickly, in about a minute, even at night. You'll fill it in 20-30 minutes.

I tried the hint above, launched onto the plains several times, there were no birds in any of the three places. So I found another option.

We fly to the left from the entrance to the plains to the water, there lies a large fish, 1-3 hares will spawn on it, we kill them, we fly off a little (as in the video on the link below), we return, the hares have spawned again.

Sometimes hares will spawn before your eyes, 5 seconds after returning, so do not fly away if they are not there.
