    This solution is only for those that have imported a save and have the achievement in the 360 version. Fast travel to Sanctuary and purchase an upgrade from the black market once and it should unlock.

    For those just starting on the One: collect eridium in chests around the game and use it to buy upgrades. The black market is located near Moxxi's bar.

    R3f1CuLthis is very odd... its almost like my saves didnt carry over from borderlands 2 correctly as far as easily getting achievements.. .but i seemed to get one of everything in the presequel and unlocked that... dunno gonna wait and see if this update clears up the inconsistency as far as getting these achievements goes, because i did get some on borderlands 2 just by loading up my game or getting 1 of something but not all, but long story short i can vouch for this being authentic at least partially as a solution

    A quest will send you to the black market early into your first visit to Sanctuary, and you've probably collected more than 15 Eridium bars by then. You'll need a minimum of 20 to get this achievement. It won't be hard, but you'll probably go out and do a couple of side missions, then return with dozens more.
