The Outer Worlds - Short Circuit Achievement
In this video guide I will show you how to kill 30 automechanicals with shock damage. Now first things first. If you started your character right off the bat with increasing the intelligence and perception attributes. The damage will for weapons will be greater. Also making this achievement easier. Another way to make this easier would be to put points into the ranged category under skills. Not to mention there are some perks called: Scanner and Revenge for increased damage to help out. Also your companions have some perks to help. Nyoka and Parvati both have the perk called: Fine Aim for increased ranged damage.
Now a little insight on the weapons. If you look at the DPS color, it will be blue. Indicating shock damage. If you can't find a shock weapon, you can always mod one to make it shock. Go to your workbench on your ship or wherever. Then go into the weapon you want to use under modify. Next hit RT to go into the magazine types. If you have one it will be called: Mag-2-Zap. Make sure to put that on to start working on the achievement.
Now in order for this achievement to actually count, you will need to get the final blow with the shock weapon. The higher the damage the better the chance. A good spot to get a few robot kills for this would be on Monarch. Look to the South by the water. There will be a factory called: C&P Boarst Factory. Head there and once you get there make a manual save. Now go ahead and kill the robots that are at the front door, some right inside the living area, and in the factory. One other good area to mention is HRS-1084. This area has a good amount of robots as well.
Now this is very important. You won't get progress for the same exact enemy. So when you kill the robot once, it won't count again. Once you kill the final robot with a shock weapon, the achievement will pop.
