Need help with the Like and Follow side quest in Dead Island 2? Follow our step-by-step guide to electrocute, behead, and kick zombies off the pier to get your rewards!
Alright, so you want to tackle the 'Like and Follow' side quest in Dead Island 2? Awesome! This one's a bit different, tasking you with some... creative zombie disposal for social media clout. First things first, you need to have finished Amanda's 'Clickbait' quest and also completed the main story. Once that's done, head over to The Pier and find the Pier Stop souvenir shop. Amanda will be chilling on the rooftop, ready to give you the rundown.
She needs your help to get down, and guess what? She wants to film it all for her fans. So, get ready to put on a show!
How to Electrocute 16 Zombies
Your first job is to zap 16 zombies in the dodgems area. Before you flip the switch in the control room, grab some water cans and spread water around the live wires. Then, power it up and lure those undead pests into the puddles. The weaker ones, like Shamblers and Walkers, will fry pretty quickly. For the tougher zombies, you'll need to soften them up with a few hits first before they meet their watery, electric grave. Don't stress about killing them outright before they get zapped – zombies respawn infinitely here until you hit the 16 electrocution goal, so you've got plenty of chances.
- Tip: Use the water cans to create a larger area of effect for the electricity.
How to Behead 12 Zombies
Once you've wracked up 16 electrocutions, Amanda will call you over to the Ferris wheel. Chat with her, and she'll give you your next assignment: beheading 12 zombies. For this, you'll want to equip a bladed weapon that can dismember – an axe is a solid choice, fitting for the theme! When you swing, aim for the head. You'll find plenty of weaker zombies around that can be taken down with a few well-placed headshots. Some tougher ones might take a bit more effort, so focus on the easier targets if you're in a hurry.
- Tip: Weapons with the 'Maiming' mod can make beheading much easier.
How to Kick 14 Zombies off the Pier
After the beheadings, Amanda will move to the broken octopus ride near the pier's edge. This next task is arguably the trickiest: kicking 14 zombies off the pier and into the water. And here's the catch – they have to be alive when they go over! Using a heavy blunt weapon like a bat is a good shout, as it'll help push them back. Your best bet is to use kicks and jump kicks, but lining them up can be a pain. Try to isolate a few zombies at a time and work on nudging them towards the edge. Ground pounds and scream abilities can also help push them over. If things get too crowded, thin the herd a bit before focusing on the kicking.
- Tip: Use heavy weapons or abilities that push enemies to make kicking them off easier.
Quest Completion
Once you've successfully booted 14 zombies into the ocean, Amanda will tell you to finish off any remaining zombies however you see fit. After you've cleared them out, head back to Amanda to wrap up the 'Like and Follow' quest. You'll be rewarded with 4,000 XP, a Nailgun, and a Rare Ranged Electrocutor Mod. Nice haul!
