How to unlock the Threat Eliminated achievement

    UPDATE: By looking at the comments, I recommend from now on playing only with Riptor. Maybe Aria or Sadira are not working anymore, or they change the answers (Thanks Jasford).

    UPDATE: By the looks of https://www.trueachievements.com/ArkhmInmate0801.htm and Ozzpot 's comments, there must be some probability or requirement for Aria and Sadira's playthrough. While we don't discover what's going wrong, I'd recommend using Riptor in these quests.

    This achievement is related to completing the randomly generated quest Ultrateck Leak. It is a quest spanned through four turns. It is also only playable by agents of Ultrateck. My playthrough was with Aria, but you may use anyone, although the answers might differ slightly.

    I will tell the answers I put to all quests:

    1st One
    Pre-battle: Storm hideout
    Pos-battle: Search hideout

    2nd One
    Pre-battle: Disable the Aria clone (as Aria/Fulgore) or Call Ultratech Security for Backup (as Riptor/Sadira)
    Pos-battle: Track hacker signal (as Aria/Fulgore) or Decrypt the hacker's log (as Riptor/Sadira)

    3rd One
    Pre-battle: Enter through the back (you will get poisoned) (as Aria/Fulgore) or Ask the Rebels for assistance (as Riptor/Sadira)
    Pos-battle: Search for clues (as Aria/Fulgore) or Interrogate the captured terrorists (as Riptor/Sadira)

    4th One
    Pre-battle: Covert assault
    Pos-battle: Search the dataframe

    Other answers might work so bear in mind these.

    For the first three quests, I didn't have much problem in terms of fighting. The problem comes with the fourth. The last mission is a 1 vs 2 very hard battle. Especially, the second part which is against a random character. I recommend bringing your A game here, using artifacts, consumables, and best guardians.

    After the final answer, the achievement should unlock.

    If you have different answers that lead to the achievement, please put the comments so that I can update it. Thanks for SiegfriedX for his Riptor answers, ParadoxReal8 for corrections, thatNoseyParker for the Sadira Info and planting42 for the Fulgore Info.

    Ok this is my Solution for using Sadira in this achievement. So once you get the quest "Ultra teck Leak" you need to use these answers through the four turns.


    1st turn

    Before fight - Storm the hideout
    After fight - Search hideout

    2nd turn

    Before Fight - Use the back up option
    After fight - Use the trace option

    3rd turn

    Before fight - Go through the front entrance
    After fight - Look for clues

    4th turn

    Before fight - Use the covert choice
    After fight - Use the Search the Database option.

    And that's the options you need for Sadira! The last fight is tough but I used my Shadow lord token I got for beating the game on Single player and it made it super easy !

    Sadira step 3 after fight answer didn't work for me.

    That's strange ? I failed at this point two times before as I tried the back entrance ( ooooo) twice until I switched to the front. The only other second option I get is to go back and the quest would never continue if you just leave?

    I tried the other solution with Aria, and I had the same result. I suppose I'll try the front entrance on my next attempt...

    tldr: Tired of trying to keep up with who you've done what with for achievements? Click my spreadsheet link below and start tracking it!

    This is not a specific guide but more so a checklist along with some tips for tackling this game as a whole. There are other excellent, very detailed guides for unlocking each specific achievement.

    Background
    When I decided to start Killer Instinct from scratch in early 2021 (began 3/26/21 and finished 6/21/21), I decided that I needed a way to guide and track my progress to completion in the most efficient way possible. With a base game of 94 achievements and 28 DLCs which is composed of 23 characters, a ranked MP DLC (League Title Update), a story mode (similar to MK's ladder system), an RPG type mode (Shadow Lords 1 & 2), and Shadow Mode (machine learning type bot simulator) that made up another 370 achievements, this game was going to take some time and coordination.

    Info
    I created a spreadsheet by exporting all of the Achievement Titles, Achievement Descriptions, and Gamerscore from TA. I added the following columns:

    • Order: to keep the initial achievement order
    • BASE/DLC: determines if the achievement was part of the base game or one of the DLCs
    • Release Date: for sorting purposes
    • Type: I created 23 "Types" of achievements in this game, most are repetitive across characters (i.e. win versus match with [insert character])
    • Character: let's you know which character the achievement applies to. There are 29 characters in total. Some achievements are assigned to "Any" meaning those do not apply to a specific character. Omen does not follow the normal DLC achievement path rather it has 5 random achievements tied to it.
    • Unlocked: put an "x" in the cell if you have unlocked it. This ties in with the Pivot tab where you refresh the pivot tables to show your percentage complete.
    If you decide to use the spreadsheet, start by deleting all of the x's in the Unlocked column on KI TA tab (not to be confused with the KI TA sortable tab which is used for sorting to your hearts desire without messing with your main tab). Once you start filling in "x" 's in the KI TA tab, you can refresh the Pivot tab to see your progress based on Type and/or Character.

    I hope this spreadsheet helps for anyone starting this beast of game that is quite fun. It was more time consuming than challenging but overall I really enjoyed it.

    Tips:
    • Complete the Shadow Mode achievements first as these have broken in the past and were unobtainable for a while before they patched it.
    • Find a hardcore, dedicated group to boost ranked achievements. Playing this game legit online will take a while and will be pretty tough!
    • Try to have fun with Shadow Lords Mode, once I understood how it worked (which just took playing it a while) it was a lot of fun!
    • Keep a second controller handy for some of the Fight Challenges. For example, blocks can be done easily by rubber banding your main controller to block while you perform a move with the second controller.
    • If you haven't already, read through the Walkthrough. It was well done up to the point before the writer quit updating it. For the rest, read through the guides and of course, the comments on the guides for good info.
    Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions to make the spreadsheet better.
