The Gun In The Stone

The Excalibastard is a legendary weapon stuck in a stone hidden in the Stanton’s Liver area. You will need at least 2500 Badass Rank to pull the gun from the stone. Head to Triton Flats and find the jump pad to Stanton’s Liver. Not far into the area, jump across two isolated “islands” to the north to find it.

Who You Gonna Call?

Despite the description saying to complete the Sub-Level 13 missions with three other players, you only have to complete Part 2 with others, not the first mission.

Guardian Guardian

During the Guardian Hunter optional mission, capture four elemental Guardian Wraiths. Hand them over to the Master Poacher or kill him. Choose to kill him and clean up the rest of the Scavs to get this trophy/achievement.

Air Supremacy

Wolf is one of Wilhelm’s two summoned drones. His Hunter-Killer skill tree has skills that can enhance Wolf’s killing abilities, such as Fire Support, Venom Bolts, Laser Guided, and Rolling Thunder, which make killing enemies easier.

Air Supremacy

Killed 100 enemies with Wolf.

No, I’m Athena!

Athena’s action skill uses a shield to absorb damage and then throw it. Her Phalanx skill tree has skills like Invictus and Prismatic Aegis that help with this. Her capstone, Wrath of the Goddess, allows the shield to ricochet to up to four additional enemies.

No, I'm Athena!

Killed 100 enemies with the Aspis.

That Helped, Right?

Experience all of Claptrap’s VaultHunter.EXE modes at least once. This requires leveling to at least level 25, as two modes are obtained at the bottom of his Boomtrap and Fragmented Fragtrap skill trees.
