Introduction. The Baconing is the third installment to the Deathspank series. In the Baconing, Deathspank summons the Anti-Spank, by wearing all 6 thongs. The only way to restore balance is to travel to the Flames of Bacon and destroy 5 of the thongs. The Baconing is an Xbox Live Arcade Game that can be bought in the Xbox Live Marketplace for 1200 Microsoft Points.

 

Step 1. Playthrough One on any Difficulty. On this step you will simply launch the game and have one goal only: to complete the game unlocking as many achievements as you can along the way. You will have to do another playthrough because "Insane Mode" can not be played until completion of the campaign on any difficulty.

 

Step 2. Insane Mode Playthrough. On this step you will restart the game on Insane difficulty now that it is unlocked. This will be a fairly challenging feat.

 

Step 3. Mop Up. This step can come before or after Insane Mode. This will be the step in which you will unlock any achievements you missed along the way i.e. reaching the maximum level.

 

Conclusion. All in all The Baconing is not a difficult game other than the insane difficulty. The Baconing is time consuming however, but enjoyable. Congratulations on your additional 200.

 

Achievement Guide

Program a Replicator

Story-line related. Can not be missed. This quest is given by Doorphan over by the exit door of Spanktopia, early on in the game. You will need 3 punch cards. You must put them in the order 3, 5, then 4. One is to the right of the Replicator. Another you obtained through the green alien's request, but you do have to use the hole punching machine on it which is in the Undead Side of Spanktopia. The final punch card is in the Insectorium.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/+YgGWQ==.jpg Bashing Success 15:gsicon:

Shield Bash 1000 times.

Shield Bashing is a new form of blocking in combat, that is introduced in The Baconing. Hold :rtbut: to block and a circle will appear around deathspank. Wait for the circle to get small and release :rtbut: . You can also hold the :rtbut: until the shield expires and a shield bash is automatically triggered. If done correctly all surrounding enemies should fly away from you giving you time to breathe. If you are running in a direction it will only be distributed to that direction. If you are standing still it will bash a complete circle around you. Note, also that this is bash 1000 enemies not 1000 times. To see your progress go to leaderboards, select "the Bashing Best" and filter it to "My Score."

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/+Gj+yg==.jpg Never Tell Me the Odds 20:gsicon:

Perform a Ten Attack Chain

The attack chain system in The Baconing is very simple. When fighting enemies quickly and consecutively attack your opponents with different weapons. In other words after the first slash with a sword, use a different sword, after that slash, use a different, and continue this until a x10 chain is obtained. You can use any combination of weapons including a crossbow, and it can be the same two weapons back and forth, only if each hit on your opponent is with a different weapon. Also, note that attacking with your weapons too quickly or too slowly, the counter will break. Try to stay in rhythm of the the Chain Counter Text.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-coVMw==.jpg Blade Ruiner 15:gsicon:

Kill 100 Cyborques

Cyborques are the new futuristic/robotic type of orques that are throughout the game. This achievement will unlock with natural progression of the game.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-CrtoA==.jpg Who Wants to Live Forever? 15:gsicon:

Became a god

This achievement is obtained through a chain of side quest given from Zeus in the Valhalla Heights. The final quest is titled: Twelfth Labor. In this quest you must slay Bearabus and return to Zeus. Upon completion a cutscene will appear and the achievement is yours.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-gvkFQ==.jpg Reflectology 20:gsicon:

Reflect 100 Ranged Attacks

In order to reflect a ranged attack, you must charge your block with :rtbut: then release before the ranged attack reaches you and causes damage. You will know that you have successfully done this when the enemy's ranged attack's projectile goes hurdling back toward them. Repeat this 99 more times. To see your progress go to the leaderboards, select "Rapid Reflectors" and filter it to "My Score."

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-+schg==.jpg Stay on Target 15:gsicon:

Reach Level 20

If you have not reached level 20, which is the maximum level obtainable, by the end of the game, simply complete some side quests or farm kills on a high difficulty.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-MwIiA==.jpg Game Over Man! 20:gsicon:

Beat the Game on any Difficulty

Story-line related. Can not be missed. This achievement is obtained after completing the final quest at the end of the game. This DOES NOT require you to complete side quest, only main quest.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-SzwGw==.jpg Are You Not Entertained 15:gsicon:

Become the Tournament Champion

Once you reach the Forbidden City, proceed north until your cross a bridge and find a quest giver. He will give you quests for every match of the tournament. The tournament consists of 20 matches.

1- Beast- no real strategy- 4+

 

2- Pip- Stay far back and use your crossbow. Use justice attack when meter is full- 4+

 

3- Dark Knights. For the small two knights simply hit them with a fire sword until they die. These two die relatively quick. And use the same strategy as the pip for the larger knight- 5+

 

4- Spiders- Kill the spider queen by reflecting its projectiles back at it. Once the queen is killed simply bash the baby spiders- 5+

 

5- Gladiator Lord- Kill the two large Gladiator Lords by the pip strategy and only using up close weapons when they are dazed by a shield bash. It is reccommend that you kill the two archers first by any means necessary- 7+

 

6- Dragon- For the dragon, avoid close encounters at all cost, try only to use your crossbow. When the Dragon shoots fire balls reflect them back at him- 7+

 

7- Arean Chizards- First lure the Chizards away from the Cactus guys. Reflect there fire balls back at them and it should one or two hit them. Now use the crossbow technique again on the cactus guys- 8+

 

8- Arena Donkey- First kill the three shamans that try to heal him. You should be able to kill them with ease. For the donkey use the crossbow technique once again. He has a large amount of health and will take a while to kill- 9+

 

9- Agricultural Round- First reflect the fire balls from the trees of tomorrow back at them. This should kill them with ease, then use either a flame elemental weapon on the farmers, or the crossbow technique- 10+

 

10- Cyborques- The Best weapon to use is one with a fire element attached. Take out the archers first, then the medics, and finally go for the troopers- 12+

 

11- Dinosaurs- The best way to kill these guys is to lure the group near the explosive barrel and shoot an arrow at it when the group is close to it and you are far away, as these barrles are extremely lethal. Finish off in stragglers with any weapon of your choosing, and remember to bash if you get surrounded- 12+

 

12- Leprachuans- No real technique to this round besides using a weapon powered by the fire element. Use your bash if you need to stun them and run away for a chance to breathe- 12+

 

13- Dragon #2- First you want to kill the 3 shamans by any means necessary so they do not heal the gold dragon. Afterward simply use the crossbow technique on the dragon until he is dead- 14+

 

14- Greems- Take out the archers and shamans by bashing and using a flame powered weapon. Use barrels, your crossbow, and lots of bashing on the large Greems- 15+

 

15- Ant Army- This is an incredibly difficult wave. It will not be relatively easy until you are a level 20 but it is possible as a level 15. Use everything at your disposle. Use all barrels, use electrified or flaming weapons and justice powers, and never forget to bash your way out of a group if you get surrounded- 17+

 

16- Robots- This wave is fairly simple compared to the last. Use the barrels to diminish the group to one or two robots then finish them off with a justice move or a few basic attacks- 17+

 

17- Kangamoos- Another simple wave that consists of three half Kangaroos and half Cow creatures. Simply reflect their projectiles back at them and each one should take 3-5 reflections-17+

 

18- Demons- These two demons are slow, but powerful. Any level beneath 18 is a one hit(except with all health boosting hero cards). You can use the crossbow technique, it is slow but a guaranteed win the first time around, or you can bash then slice with your most powerful weapon preferably an ice element-17+

 

19- Runner Up- First you will need to kill the slime monsters by reflecting their projectile back at them. Once again they should die between 2-5 shots. Now to take down the Ogre. He has the same principal as the Demons, except they are a little faster-17+

 

20- Final Round- First Reflect the archers arrows back at him to get a quick kill. Use a weapon of your choosing that has the flame element, and kill the two medics with that. Finally you have Morbo. Once again the best idea is to use the crossbow technique, but with Morbo it is a little harder to do as he is faster than the other large enemies(Orque/Demons/Pips). Bashing is also great against Morbo- 17+

 

Now recieve the key from the arena announcer and go the chest next to the arena. Reap your rewards including your achievement.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1941/-pId2g==.jpg Take a #3 15:gsicon:

Find all 41 Outhouses

Outhouses are located throughout the game. You will use outhouses to respawn and "fast travel" or "teleport" to different locations of the map. Simply find all 41 scattered throughout the game. Really all should be found through natural progression, none are really hidden like in the first two games.

Beat the Game on "Insane" Difficulty

 

Insane Difficulty is unlocked upon completion of the game(on any difficulty) the first time. There is an entire list of tips for insane being assembled

HERE!

 

 

 

Kill 2000 Enemies

 

This is an achievement that will take some time to unlock. Across a single playthrough you must kill 2000 enemies. Not to worry, there are plenty of enemies in the game. If you have not completed this before completion of the game or reaching rank 20, simply find a location to farm kills. To track your progress, go to leaderboards, then select "Justice Dispensed" and filter it to "My Score."

When you get to the Forbidden City, you have to do 3 arena matches for the red princess. You have to complete arena matches until you get to the final one (presumably you can't get this til lvl 20ish).

Dont understand how you got a full guide up when u only have 4 achievements on the game!!!

I maybe wrong but thought u had to have played through the game before putting up a guide!!

 

True I have not 100% the game. But, the beating the game,beating the game on insane, 2000 kills, and rank 20 are all self explanatory. The bashing will come over time but i have close to 1000 so i figured i could right the guide for that.

 

So technically i have two achievements I cant "entirely" write a guide for. But one of those is near completion and the other is almost positively a quest in the game. Not sure though, and thats why I have been using the symbols( (!) (?) (^) ). I like to have my guide made and fill it out as i go through the game.

 

I believe i do remember reading a rule in the past about not putting up a guide to you have completed it yourself now that you mentioned it. My apologies. I see people do this same thing though and simply forgot we are not suppose to. It is general completion though. All I have left is to finish the final details, correct grammar and spelling errors, and few minor things such as that.

 

The only major problem I have right now is still trying to discover if the "become a god" achievement is a story line mission or not. Although how the game is looking so far i believe it is.

Just how "insane" is insane mode? It's the only achievement that has me worried...

It is incredibly difficult. I played some on my friend's account. If they did not have this achievement the game would be a 3/10 and 10-12 hours to 200. I have a feeling a lot of people will not try for the full 200 because of this single achievement.

Lovely. That's what I liked about the first 2 games. They were just fun and casual. I may have to skip this. :(
