    There are a total of 12 possible combinations of corebots and frames.

    After unlocking all 3 corebots (Mack, Seth & Duncan) and all 4 frames (K-9, SP-DR, AP-3 & FL1-R), you want to go back to your crawler, and on the workbench to use core swap and make combinations of corebots and frames. After making two, back out, and go outside. Find a group of enemies and use the lethal attack of these combinations on an enemy group for it to count. Now back back to the crawler, and make a new combination, and repeat. You can keep track of your achievement progress via the achievement tracker.

    All 12 possible combinations are as follows:
    - Mack as K-9*
    - Mack as SP-DR
    - Mack as AP-3
    - Mack as FL1-R
    - Seth as K-9
    - Seth as SP-DR*
    - Seth as AP-3
    - Seth as FL1-R
    - Duncan as K-9
    - Duncan as SP-DR
    - Duncan as AP-3*
    - Duncan as FL1-R

    * - denotes default combination

    You may want to set up a grid on excel or use this list to check off the combinations you've used.

    You will also unlock Identity Crisis while doing this:

    te5s3raktHad the same issue... went through them all 3 times excluding the default combos thinking "well I obviously already used their lethals"... eventually decided to try them all a forth time, including the default combos, and first round, mack in K9 and boom it popped...

    Burn The JediOk i have a question for you all, why won't this achievement unlock? I've done it twice and the tracker has it at 100% but still locked... I reached out to support and they were absolutely no help. It's holding back my 100% on this game

    Lethal Combination means that not only do you have to swop the cores, but you have to do some damage with that setup as well.

    May get a little confusing so im going to use
    Core names, and Robot names
    Mack, Seth, Duncan
    Dog, Spider, Ape, Flyer
    MACK = BLUE
    SETH = YELLOW
    DUNCAN = RED

    Here's a grid if you want to track it yourself.

    CORE|BOT| DOG|SPIDER|APE|FLYER|
    MACK ........|______|________|____|______|
    SETH..........|______|________|____|______|
    DUNCAN...|______|________|____|______|


    This is the way i did it after getting the 4 Robots.
    The percentage is how much showed up on the tracker.
    I made sure that the combo both attacked and killed to make sure it was good with the tracker before i checked.

    KILLZONE
    Zoning out of the staring crawler, I usually attack the 3 red spiders that are straight ahead and off to the left just a little.

    MY GUIDE OF ROTATIONS.

    First 25% just use the original 3 bots. (These will come from normal game play/fun)
    Mack in Mack
    Seth in Seth
    Duncan in Duncan (25%)

    Once you get the opportunity to switch core usage (which should be almost at the end of Warren Mission).
    (Before Placing Duncan in - know that the place where you first get the flyer there is 1 or 2 walls that Duncan can smash - so adjust accordingly)
    Place Duncan in Flyer (33%) (in mission)

    Go to your crawler, use the work bench and do the following.
    Mack in flyer, zone out get a kill (41%) > go to workbench.
    Seth in flyer , zone out get a kill (50%) > go to work bench.
    (Mack in a flyer should also pop the following achievement:
    ReCoreIdentity CrisisThe Identity Crisis achievement in ReCore worth 89 pointsPut Mack into a non K-9 Frame



    The reason for doing just the flyer, is the rotation becomes easier to handle and not so much swapping afterwards

    Go back into crawler slide
    place SETH back in SPIDER. (was in flyer)
    Now place DUNCAN back in FLYER
    SETH in APE
    MACK in SPIDER
    Go outside with MACK and SETH. - Kill something with each one
    Mack in SPIDER kill (58%)
    Seth in Duncan (66%) (these 2 might be switched around, but as long as you have the 66% after using both, that is what counts)

    Zone back into crawler and slide the following.
    Duncan into DOG
    Seth into Flyer
    Mack into APE
    Zone out of crawler and take
    MACK AND DUNCAN with you.,
    get a kill with each.
    Mack in APE kill (75%)
    Duncan in DOG kill (83%)

    Zone into crawl and change the following.
    Duncan in SPIDER
    Seth in DOG
    Mack in Flyer
    Zone out of crawler and take
    Seth and Duncan with you.,
    get a kill with each.
    Seth in DOG (91%
    Duncan in SPIDER (100%)

    ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED.

    Happy Hunting.

    DANIELJJ14You shouldn't put Duncan in the flier if you're in the warren for the first time as when you fly up the vent in the starting room just after is a smash able wall that requires the Ap-3 frame so put either mack or Seth in instead.

    CyberneticHFXIt finally counted relatively. I kept commanding relatively, while charge shooting the enemies myself.

    OnsidicDaniel definitely agree with the statement, of putting someone other than duncan as there is i think 2 smashable walls in that area. Reason on having a grid, just incase people do it differently. (Like i did :P )

    Wait until you have finished the quest in THE WARREN and gotten all parts of the FL1-R. After this head back to Joules Crawler and use the Workbench. From here you can go to CoreBots and press cn_X to swap the cores of the bots into different frames.

    You need to use the special attack (Press cn_Y when in combat to do a special attack) for each core in each frame in order for the achievement to pop.

    All Combos are listed below

    • Mack - K-9
    • Mack - SP-DR
    • Mack - AP-3
    • Mack - FL1-R

    • Seth - K-9
    • Seth - SP-DR
    • Seth - AP-3
    • Seth - FL1-R

    • Duncan - K-9
    • Duncan - SP-DR
    • Duncan - AP-3
    • Duncan - FL1-R
