Attain over 9,001 points in a single Free Roam session

This can be obtained by simply going to twin rocks in a private multiplayer free roam and clearing the hideout as quickly as possible. Simply choose to replay until you get over 9,001 points. You can check how many points you have by holding down on the D-Pad. Here is a video that shows the most efficient way to clear Twin Rocks,

Attain over 50,000 posse points in a single Free Roam session

The way I obtained this achievement was I formed a posse of 3 in a private free roam, one person went to twin rocks and my friend and I went to pike's basin. We just kept clearing the hideouts over and over until we got it. This took about an hour and a half to obtain.

nfntjy says this way is quicker, I've yet to confirm,

Get the largest possible posse (8), and do a hideout with a high base score (pike's basin). I believe at a minimum each posse member will get 600-800 pts.

 

This means you will only have to do Pikes a maximum of 10 times. if you split up the ammo crates, you can do it in less than 3 minutes.

This is best to be boosted with one other person. Simply come in last on one race and then come in first on the second. Do the same for the other person on the 3rd and 4th race.

While on defense, do not allow the attacking team to capture any of their objectives

This is best to be boosted with 5 other people, you can get the other achievements with this same group of 5 people. Simply start a private free roam with no one in a posse and have the host choose "Stronghold". Once the match starts just let the time run out and you'll get this achievement and "Avatar of Death".

Get a triple kill while on the attacking team in Stronghold

Once your first match is over, vote to play again and the people on the attacking team start off with one dynamite stick. Have the 3 people huddle together and have each person on the attacking team take a turn at getting a triple kill. After everyone on the attacking them has gotten the achievement, capture all objectives to end the round quicker and repeat for the people who didn't get the achievement.

In a single Multiplayer Liar's Dice game, successfully make a spot-on call

This can be done with just one other person. Call out how many of one dice you have, and have the other person tell how many of that dice they have. Place your bid on that amount of dice and have the other person call it spot on. Repeat so you can get the achievement.

In a Multiplayer Liar's Dice game, win with only one die left

This can also be done with one other person. Simply place a bet of the max number of dice your allowed to place and have the other person call your bluff till your down to one dice. Then tell the truth about the final dice you have and have them press :xbut: to call your bluff. This will make them lose a dice and now they can place a high bet and you can call their bluff until they are out of dice.

In a full Multiplayer Liar's Dice game, win without losing a single die

Credit goes to Moe Marston and iiM SO S1N1STER for this quicker method.

Set Up:

 

For this achievement you will need a total of 6 players.

What you will be doing is having the person winning to call spot ons for the whole game.

 

The most important thing I can tell you is to make sure that everyone has a working microphone and can speak loud enough for everyone to hear. This solution WILL NOT work if someone does not have a mic.

 

First off, pick someone who will be the "caller". This person will ask each person, in order of where they sit on the table, (you won't have to change order because the game will seat you where you were before if you stay in the game)how many dice they have of a specific die face. (It can be any one that you choose. Stuck with the 1 die so that way the person betting only had to change the amount value).

 

Next, whoever is to the RIGHT of the person winning the game will be the "better". This person will make the bets spot-on after the caller tells him how many of the specific dice are on the table.

 

To move around the table without messing up the method, so you can have a new person win, just keep betting 1 of whatever die face value until it gets to that round's better.

 

Example: Say the "better" is the 4th person. The 1st person will bet 1 of the 1 die face, the 2nd person will then bet 1 of the 2 die face, and etc etc until it gets to the "better".

 

And then, whoevers turn it is to win will always call a spot-on.

 

If for some reason you screw up by putting too many of the die face, or you auto-bid. Then just use the above method to move around the table to the "better".

 

If you can do this with no screw ups, then one game will only take you 6 to 8 minutes. Bringing the full time for a full table to under 40 minutes.

In a Multiplayer Poker game, win a hand by forcing someone with a better hand to fold

This can be done with two people. Tell each other what cards you have, whoever has the better hand will fold and the other will get the achievement. Repeat so the other person can get it.

In a Multiplayer Poker game, win a hand on the last card when you were losing prior

I got this achievement while going for "Pa-Pa-Pa Poker Ace" but it can be done with two people. Simply have your boosting partner go all in and you fold and then on the next hand keep calling or checking until the 5th card is on the table. You'll have to have the better hand so this achievement is slightly luck based which is why I said I got it while going for the other poker achievement.

 

http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/xe/Z5/1YCLiGJhbC9CDxoEGlxTWTJCL2FjaC8wLzU2AAAAAOfn5-pW5tk=.jpgPa-Pa-Pa-Poker Ace - 10:gsicon:

In a full Multiplayer Poker game, beat the table when blinds are at maximum

You'll need a full game of 6 people total. Make sure that you and the other 5 people in your game have 3 hours time to get this as that is how long it will take for all 6 players to get the achievement.

 

It is best to have someone in your boosting party that is knowledgeable about poker so that they can tell the person going for the achievement when they have the best hand so they can bust everyone out and win.The best place to get this achievement is to go to MacFarlane's Ranch since the max blind is only 64.

 

 

  • Starting with whoever goes first, have that person go all in. Then have everyone else fold.

 

  • Repeat this process as it goes around the table until the blinds are at max.

 

  • If you were unable to get someone that is knowledgeable about poker then once the blinds are max at 64 you can have everyone go all in and see who wins, this is what I did.

 

  • After two or more people have gotten the achievement it is best to have them bust out at the beginning so you don't run into the chance of them winning again. To do this simply have them go all in and whoever has the best hand will bust the other people out. The remaining person who already has the achievement should place a bet of about 60, have the next person call it and then have the 3rd person check it. When it gets back to the person who already has the achievement have them fold as well as one other person so that the only one person still has his cards so he gets the money. Repeat this process when it gets to the person who already has the achievement until he bust out as well.

Another method is after the match starts have everyone aside from the host and one other person return to free roam and have them fold back and forth until blinds are max. I was told this way is quicker but have yet to confirm.

Complete the Explosive Rifle Single Player Challenge

All of the challenges are pretty straight foward aside from the 3rd and 4th challenges.

 

For the 3rd challenge you need to get a triple kill, to do this go to twin rocks and kill everyone beside for 3 people. Lasso them and then hogtie them. After you have hog tied all 3 people, pick them up and place them all next to each other. Pull out your explosive rifle and fire.

 

For the 4th challenge you need to kill two wild animals with one shot. To do this, place some bait out, this can be found at most general stores, and wait for a group of animals to cluster up and fire your explosive rifle.

 

For more information on this single player challenge, refer to Zanmoto88's singe player challenge guide,

Great Legend Shemp Howard here coming at you live from Armadillo!!! McDurbin man I love the guide, and I will be using it for those crazy Poker achievements.

 

Also people I was the guy at Twin Rocks with Durbin while he and his buddy where in Pike's Basin. With one person at Twin Rocks you will get 600 XP per minute if you get the 21-22 kill chain combo and clear the hideout in under a minute. So in about 42 minutes I had 25,000 of our team's xp. They got the other 25,000 about 3 minutes later, and we were all done.

 

So this achievement takes less than an hour to get with a good team. Just make sure you have a Great Legend on your team working the TWIN ROCKS! TWIN ROCKS PEOPLE! COMING AT YOU LIVE FROM TWIN ROCKS!

 

Anyways again you aren't going to find a better guide than this anywhere. McDurbin knows this game like he knows Vasoline.

 

Also if you are on the fence about getting this DLC don't be. It is an easy 100 gamerscore. Just check out the following video for a really good video review of the DLC and wether you ought to buy it or not.

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1xj3twlDyI]YouTube - My Thoughts: Liars & Cheats[/ame]

 

Clearly if you watched the video and read McDurbin's guide you will now want to buy Liars and Cheats! I will see you in Armadillo!

Twice in one game of Stronghold I had a triple kill using dynamite and on both occasions I didn't recieve the achievement Legion of Boom, in the end I managed to get a triple kill using the cannon on the Fort Mercer map.

 

 

 

Be cautious, If you accidently kill a gang team member while blowing up the 3 enemy players with dynamite then the achievement will not unlock !

You have to be on the attacking team to receive the achievement.

 

This is my first guide on x360a so I wasn't sure who to suggest this to be stickied to. So I sent a pm to an administrator named "Krazie". If thats not the right person and someone know's who to send it to then go ahead and do so.

If everyone has a microphone, our group found it much easier to get Compulsive Liar by making spot on calls.

 

 

We would go around the table, with everyone stating the amount of Ones they had, and then the person bidding would bid the exact amount. The next person calls spot on and everyone loses a die. (Rinse and Repeat) At most, our games would take 7-8 minutes.

So I guess after the person successfully called a spot on bid it went back to the person that placed the bid at first?

 

We tried doing that, but with just naming off the number of dice we had the most of and we often ran out of time and it did an auto bid.

for 50,000 points, get then largest possible posse (8), and do a hideout with a high base score (pike's basin). I believe at a minimum each posse member will get 600-800 pts.

 

This means you will only have to do Pikes a maximum of 10 times. if you split up the ammo crates, you can do it in less than 3 minutes.
