WWE 2K16

How this works is the injury goes from minor to major then critical. What I did was used Brock Lesnar and beat up Heath Slater. No holds barred match so you can use weapons. Keep beating him mainly focusing on the head and torso. Use OMG moments aswell and don't end the match to quickly because you want to enflict as much punishment as possible. It took a few matches to get it. Go to customize universe then superstars and it will say their status of what injury.

First guide so be nice please

I just unlocked this achievement, and there is a very simple way to do this/keep track of your progress so you don't spend hours hammering away on your opponent. The information in the above solutions is crucial too, so thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

1. Use Triple H. He has the Pedigree, which also helps when you use a table OMG move on the outside. He also has the ring post big boot OMG moment, which does severe damage. Head damage is what we want, and he has it in abundance, so we'll go with him.

2. Pick your opponent, and then knock his critical hit points DOWN for his head in the Edit Superstar tab in WWE Universe. This will help. I used Fandango because he didn't counter much. Also, if you want to use the sliders to make reversals near non-existent, it will make things a little smoother. Also, make sure your blood is ON in the options.

3. You need to do three matches, one for minor injury, one for major injury and one for critical injury, as mentioned above. You can edit the same show to do these all in one go, if you wish. I used Raw and beat Fandango in three straight matches. After each, check his status in his superstar profile and his head should go yellow, then orange, then red. This will probably roll onto the news feed on the right also.

4. This is key. Edit the matches so they are Extreme Rules. No count outs, no DQ, freedom to do what you want, where you want.

5. In the match, grab as many weapons as you can and put them in the ring. Beat Fandango outside the ring using Triple H's arsenal of moves (hold X near Fandango's head (knee drop) and chest (mounted punching), when he is facing upwards, these rack up massive damage points) and beat him until he bleeds. Keep doing this, mixing in the OMG moments mentioned above. Triple H's spinebuster signature also does head damage too.

6. Now, to KEEP TRACK of your progress, Fandango will bleed a little from his forehead, then a lot from his forehead, and then a ton until his CHEST had blood smothered all over it. When the chest blood appears, move him into the ring, hit two finishers and all the moves in between to win. The chest blood indicates that the injury has happened. Simply repeat the same in two more matches to stack each injury, and the achievement will pop on completion of the third match.

In all, this took me about 15 minutes. Nice and simple.

Ok this is very simple if you make a few tweaks.

Go to wwe universe > custom universe > edit Superstars


Choose a Wrestler you are going to injure ( I chose adam rose as he is first in the list) Click Status effects within your wrestlers screen and in the far right you will see Critical injury. It tells you here exactly what it takes to inflict a critical injury.

So this has to be done over 3 matches, first your minor injury, then your major, then your critical

To inflict a critical injury - The wrestler must receive limb damage equal to 280% of that limbs health in a single match while it is also afflicted by a major injury. To inflict a major injury again you have to inflict 280% of the limbs health Finally a minor injury is again 280%.

So now that we know the criteria. Go down to HIT POINT RATIO, Now reduce the Hit points for head and Torso to 600.00pts which is the minimum allowed,
Offset this by increasing leg hit points

Go into attributes and reduce the head, leg, arm, body durability. So damaging there limbs is quicker. Also reduce a few other attributes to make the match easier but they are the main ones.

Now go to Play Matches (Within WWE UNIVERSE) > PRESS RB ON ANY MATCH AND CHOOSE CUSTOMIZE MATCH

SELECT ONE ON ONE > NO HOLDS BARRED - CHOOSE STONE COLD And for the opponent SELECT THE WRESTLER YOU ARE GOING TO INJUR

Now beat the holy hell out of the opponant. StoneCold has lots of moves which damage torso and head, eg his stunner. It is not just a case of turning the body part red, you have to do massive amounts of damage so focus on using Suplexes/slams and finishers. NO DQ MATCH IS AWESOME AS YOU CAN USE LETHAL WEAPONS WHICH QUICKLY BUILD UP FINISHERS.

Dont pin as soon as there health is gone, go well beyond this focusing on the head and torso for about 5 minutes. After savaging your opponant pin the guy and exit the match. go back into EDIT SUPERSTAR, SELECT THE WRESTLER and CLICK STATUS EFFECTS, Now you should see that Minor Torso Injury is ACTIVE.

Go back into play matches, and advance the calandar so a new set of matches appear. Again press RB and customise the match. Repeat the process again and after after another bout of total savagery pin the guy exit the match, go back to Edit Superstars Check Status Effects and Major Injury should now be Active.

Finally Repeat the process one last time, Make sure you go well beyond the health bar. After the pin the achievement will pop

Key tips: Do not pin once the health is bar is gone. Spend a good 5 minutes smashing the guy further, After Every match check that the injury is active, reduce the hitpoints for head and torso. Use weapons to build up your finishers then perform a series of finishers to end the match.

Once the pop occurs now go for

The The Celtic Warrior achievement in WWE 2K16 worth 86 pointsWWE Universe - Have a Superstar completely recover from a critical injury.

The solution by IMxAxK1LLA is a good one to follow. I just wanted to add more technical notes for anyone wanting to change some settings and get it as fast as possible, or wondering what may be going wrong if you aren't getting it.


Descriptive/informative Solution
Basically, all my info is based on the Trigger Conditions of the status effects (which can be found under Customize Universe / Edit Superstars, then picking any wrestler and viewing their Status effects. As far as I know, you can't change anything, but you can see what's active, and view descriptions/durations/stacks/etc.).

The Trigger Conditions for all Injury status effects is basically the same: "Applied when the competitor receives [limb] damage equal to 280% of [that limb]'s health in a single match."
Major injuries also add "while also being afflicted by a Minor [limb] injury".
Critical Injury instead has "while it is also afflicted by a Major Injury".

This all means that:
1) The easiness of causing an injury is related to a limb's health.
2) 280% of the health must be done in a single match.
3) You need to earn Minor [limb], Major [limb], and Critical Injury in that order, all on the same limb (as most people already know).

Basically you want to make causing 280% damage to a limb as quick and easy as possible so that you can get it done in three matches (from my understanding, any matches that don't give you a new injury just means you didn't do enough damage).

The first thing is to pick a limb. I'd suggest basing it off of the wrestler you will choose. For me, I had a CAW Diva that already had Running Bella Buster & a superkick as my signatures and the Headscissor DDT & Romero Dragon Sleeper as my finishers, so I went with the head (all four are head-based moves, and the RDS is a submission as well).

Second, I'd change some wrestler info to optimize time/damage. Basically, edit your wrestler and your victim in Customize Universe > Edit Superstars.
Wrestler (The person who you will be playing)
- Make sure at least one signature and finisher for the limb. That way, when you get them, you can use them to do heavy damage.
- If it's a CAW, you may want to raise your attributes in different areas depending on your moves.

Victim (The person who you want to get the injury)
- Under Hit Point Ratio, drop your hit points for that limb as low as you can (you may have to move the points elsewhere. I just dropped the head down to 600 pts, and made the legs 1400 pts--when you get the achievement, you can go back and revert it with ).

Note: feel free to check the skills/abilities to see if there's anything that can help you or that you need to remove from your victim.

Third, if you haven't (and want to, it might not be necessary), feel free to tweak some of your gameplay balancing options to help. Raising finisher strength might be a good idea anyway, if you haven't. If you plan to use objects (I used steel steps once, but didn't need to otherwise), maybe raise foreign object strength. And, lowering reversal rates couldn't hurt. But, it all depends on how much you changed that before. If you've tweaked everything to your liking in normal gameplay, you probably don't need to bother. If almost everything was default, it could be worth changing and reverting to default later.

Last, you should only have to play three matches as your wrestler vs the victim. Definitely follow IMxAxK1LLA's guide for quicker matches.

I Want a How-To, not Information!!
For those that just want specific directions on getting the achievement itself.
Note: I have to do some testing to find a method with a normal diva, but until then, it's for my CAW.
I did upload my CAW (twice, I guess...I got that all "Empty" uploads glitch, so I didn't realize I had already uploaded her as a backup save). All should be under #DITEHART.

1) Download my CAW or moveset (on an overall 100 diva)
2) Make sure that in Options /Gameplay Balancing that Finisher Strength is full.
3) Go to Edit Universe / Customize Superstars > Cameron > Hit Points Ratio, and move Head to 600pts, then legs to 1400pts.
4) In WWE Universe replace a match with One on One > No Holds Barred > Dite/CAW (P1) vs Cameron with Fast or Normal momentum.
5) Play the match (x3):

First thing is to run out the ring (if you end up on the corner, like I do a LOT, just jump off the middle rope and attack her, then go out). Hit her on the head with the steel steps at least 3 times throughout the match (so you may need to stand her up).
Other than than, just attack with the limb targeting the head:
- If she's on the Ground: + while standing near her head -- it does a submission, so try to hold it as long as you can without making her submit (I don't know if the wear gets worse over time, but if they are going for realism, it seems like it would).
- If she's standing: Grapple , then + [cn+Y] (just a quick kick to the head).

Just keep repeating until you get your signature. Standing in front of her will do a Superkick. Running at her will do a Running Bella Buster, use either. The first time you get a finisher, make sure to use her standing (or charged) finisher.

Repeat it all (except maybe the steel steps) until you get your finisher again. Then, if you are good with submissions, use her sub finisher (Ground move, near her feet). If not, just use her standing finisher again and pin.
I have accidentally submitted her with the ground limb targeting submission while getting to my second sig, and still injured her, but I wouldn't say aim for it yet. I'd just say check before getting mad if you do submit her.

I got this by sticking "Stone Cold" Steve Austin in a few Anywhere Falls matches for a week against Lesnar. I just hit him in the head with several weapons, hit him with the F5 through the announcers desk a few times and kicked his head in with the Skull Crushing Big Boot several times over the course of the week.
