zz1 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Now what a terrible grind it was..... i dont ever want to remember about it. But here is a quick tip if not yet covered here (i really do not want to review the topic because of bad taste in my mouth still strong after this) So this MINAC boss is a huge one and after you decide to kill it to go get your loot, its body will still be there, dead, covering quite some ground and some loot with its large butt. What i did was go back using teleport i came into the area and then teleport myself again into MINAC area. MINAC will be gone (you wont have to fight it again) and the loot it was blocking to pick, will be yours to collect. Just remember that the area building will be back in its place too, so collect your loot from its place before you leave and go back the boss area.

Shazzmin Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Thanks for the tips! Finally got back into playing this waiting for my co-op buddy to be available and I find myself getting annoyed by some of the tedious things. Still love the game though.

Frazerz1990 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) I've been 1 achievement short of completing this game for so long, I need a couple more pizza drops and I'm going to give this a try, I hope it works! Edit: Got so impatient and started to loot after 3 hours, looted one pizza and achievement pops up, whoooohooo!

Mr914 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Easily done earlier today within about 14-15 hours of farming (Split in half), thanks for this strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schism35 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Let my xbox run for 8 hours last night and collected the following this morning. Going to have to do this again for probably another 3-4 hours. Those Oil Cans have been real dicks thus far. 3D Glasses – 36 Clap fish – 42 Oil cans – 9 Pizza – 10 Panties – 20 Bobblehead – 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delirium1138 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I apologize for the probably stupid question, but is there a way to get to the MINAC without having to fight the other three bosses first? I also apologize if this has been covered before, but I don't want to read through all of the pages of posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4TTEDUP Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Just wanted to say thanks man got all my achievments in about 2 nights of idle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidGlow Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 This spot worked well. 8 hours and I got my last 3 achievements. Thanks =) 100% :drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deevs Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I don't know if anybody mentioned it already, but if you choose to play and shoot claptraps than hide for few hours, you actually don't have to kill them on your own. If you stay close to minac 'wheels' when he opens front door, the claptraps kill themselfs when trying to go out. It's about 6 claptraps every time. When he moves to next point simply run after him and repeat, but I think it can be done only with siren class using phasewak. You need to run fast enough to stay close to him. Of course you have to destroy every turret earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyreBall Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 GearBox had better put more content in their Borderlands 2 DLCs. I'm tired of having to grind for hours to get 100% on this game. At least I don't have to do anything for What a Party, the bobbleheads and the oil cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you have to destroy every turret earlier. OR you could hide behind the rock mentioned in the original guide. The clap traps always kill themselves (they blow up) so you don't have to keep running and hiding behind the MINAC. Wait 'x' amount of hours and then run around and pick everything up. Easy.

HugTheBear Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Can you fight MINAC again after beating him? I know you can on a second playthrough, but can you fight him multiple times in one playthrough? If you can, do you just go back to the area you originally fought him? I'm a few short on a couple of the collectibles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickinOnaChain Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Hug...I did but I had to reload the game and get to him, like go through those levels before you get here. I shot out all of his gun defenses until I had the main "eye" left. Just stay out of his way, shoot the claptraps and farm away. It took me several days to get all of the collectibles.

I'm a few short on a couple of the collectibles. Once you've beaten the MINAC and left the area (Arid Badlands), you arrive at Tartarus Station. From there, just go back the same way you went the first time. You will have to kill Knoxx-Trap, Ned-Trap and Steele-Trap again, but they shouldn't be too much of a challenge. After beating the MINAC you can always go back to Tartarus Station and the MINAC will respawn. I needed 3 seperate grinding sessions to get all pizzas and bobbleheads.

Aiden95 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 i managed to get all the collectibles in about 2 hours by shooting the claptraps instead of hiding and waiting. if you hide he will only send out 2 claptraps at a time whereas if you shoot them you can get 12-15. you do the math Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling I'm going to need 3 or so sessions too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExDeath928 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I just got all 3 achievements today after about 20 hours of MINAC idle farming. I don't mind some of these collectible achievements, but I wish they had a tracker that told you how many you have instead of having it randomly pop.
