    How to unlock Turnabout is Fair Play

    The Venom-X is Nightfall map’s figurative Wunderwaffe. It is a powerful weapon that relies on underdeveloped Cryptid eggs as ammo. It is found in the middle room of the third area, the Weapon Facility. To be sure, the Venom-X can be picked up by all team members, and they don’t occupy the other weapons’ slots in your inventory. Their powerfulness, however, is eclipsed by the low ammo count of four. Upon picking up the weapon, the killed Cryptids (not necessarily killed by the Venom-X) occasionally drop ammo in the wake of the demise. The ammo is a yellow, glowing egg that you pick up using . Given the weapon’s instrumentality in defeating the Breeder, it is best that you dedicate yourself to this Trophy in a separate playthrough.

    If you compare this Trophy’s description to the one of Phantom Exterminator , you will notice the absence of the “in one game” requirement here, whence the confusion arises. While conflicting reports are given over whether or not this Trophy is cumulative, to err on the safe side it is best to go for this Trophy in one playthrough. With that fact in mind, it is best to start using it as soon as it unlocks. Given the scarcity of the ammunition for this weapon, it is best that you attempt to kill the weaker Cryptids (the Rhino, for example, takes a few hits to kill with the Venom-X so don’t focus on him unless necessary (i.e. teammates down…etc). Even better, you should kill Cryptids if they are clustered, so use the flare if you have it. (Hint: using a fully upgraded Engineer can make the Venom-X shots significantly more powerful. Thanks to Jerry Appleby for the tip!)

    A good farming spot is during the final encounter with the Breeder. Instead of shooting the Breeder and thereby inadvertently prompting the earlier emergence of stronger Cryptids, focus only on the Cryptids that appear. They start appearing ad infinitum, so it would be in this area that the Trophy unlocks.

  • This is the last trophy I need I can help others if you need any certain part of the DLC.
  • Be mindful that the gas cloud created with the Venom X will also kill the crytids, so be selective when you shoot. Thats about the best advice.
