Description

This is also available as a Steam Community Guide:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=335973503

This is just a platform-agnostic mini-guide to grinding Super Power kills after you beat the game. This assumes you have maxed out your Powers already. Using this method you won't have to deal with managing Zin heat, Wardens and Command CIDs when grinding, while maintaining an excellent kill speed.

This will help you get achievements dealing with Super Power kills (and their respective Challenges):

"I Am Become Death"
"Chill Out"
"Pounding the Pavement"
"Here! Catch!"
"Bringin' the Heat"
"Fist Meet Ground"

This is also helpful with the following challenges:

Telekinesis Kills
Throw People With Telekinesis
Superpowered Beatdowns
Death From Above Kills
Aliens Super-Kicked

---------------------
The grinding process:
---------------------
1. Go to Fight Club Super Fight Training (Hard) on Loren Square.

2. Start the Activity

3. Reach Wave 2 - King of the Hill.

4. This wave requires you to fight off a never-ending stream of enemies armed in baseball bats, there can be up to 10 of them attacking you simultaneously. Wave is completed if you stay in the green circled area for a certain amount of time, not giving in to their attacks.

5. What you want to do is ignore this wave's objective and move away from the green circle. The goons will attack you relentlessly. Killing them counts as regular Alien Kills, so kill them off one by one and when you have to wait for the Super Power to recharge, just jump up and float in the air, aiming with Death From Above.

6. When the timer hits zero, the Activity will be failed, but your kills STILL COUNT. I'm not exactly sure if they stay that way if you choose the RETRY ACTIVITY option, so JUST TO BE SURE - choose EXIT ACTIVITY. I can confirm it works that way, so it's better to play safe.

7. Start the Activity again and repeat the process until you get the required amount of kills.

Notes
-----
In this video I've had about 950 total combined Super Power kills and all mentioned achievements except "I Am Become Death". In this situation I recommend using the Freeze Element Buff, shattering the goons one by one, waiting above them for Buff to recharge and smashing about 5-10 at a time with Death From Above after activating it in the air. This way you ensure that all kills count towards the achievement.

The achievement pops in 3:03.

One last thing:
When trying to get kills with a specific Super Power, be sure to choose the right Element for it. "Chill Out" and "Bringin' the Heat" both require specific Elements when killing enemies, but there's more. Killing with some elements actually doesn't count (or doesn't always count) as Super Power kills. For example, I've noticed that killing with Explosion Element Stomp won't get you far in getting "Pounding the Pavement", because most kills will count as Explosive Kills.

This way you'll grind those achievements in no time.
I hope that was a bit helpful.
Thanks for watching/reading and have fun!
