Unlock the Weedkiller achievement in Dead Space 3! Learn the best strategy to kill 5 Cysts with a single poison gas cloud in Chapter 14.
Walkthrough
- 1You can attempt this achievement near the start of Chapter 14, titled "Everything Has its Place."
- 2After you grab the Lab Key from your crew in the Rosetta lab, you'll need to explore the Biology Sector. Follow your suit locator until you enter a door.
- 3Directly in front of you, you'll see a cyst. There are a total of five cysts in this room. Your goal is to run through this area without killing any of them, saving them for the poison gas.
- 4Here's how to get past them:
- 5The first cyst is right in front of you. Use stasis on it and run past.
- 6Turn around and use kinesis to grab the projectile it shoots into the air. Be careful not to let it drop back down, as it will kill the cyst. Fire the projectile off somewhere safe.
- 7Repeat this process for the next cyst on the ground.
- 8The third cyst is on the wall to your left. Use stasis on it and run by.
- 9The fourth cyst is on the floor again. Repeat the same steps you used for the first two cysts.
- 10The final cyst is on the wall just around the corner. Use stasis and run past it.
- 11After you've bypassed all five cysts, you'll need to proceed downstairs. Take the lift down.
- 12Kill the enemies that appear in this lower area.
- 13Complete the mini-game to activate the control room and the elevator.
- 14Return back upstairs.
- 15Kill the enemy waiting for you there.
- 16Enter the small glass room and use the computer console inside to release the poison gas.
- 17This gas will kill all five cysts simultaneously, and the achievement/trophy should unlock.
Tips
- The key to this achievement is managing the stasis and kinesis correctly to avoid accidentally killing the cysts before you're ready to trigger the gas.
- Make sure you don't kill any of the cysts while you're navigating the room; if you do, you'll have to reload your last save or restart the chapter.
