Cheating kinda?

"If you have the G.R.U. and Sandvich, then you can stay in your spawn room, let the G.R.U. drain your health until you have less than 150 hit points, drop your Sandvich, pick it up, go to the locker for another Sandvich, and repeat until the achievement is earned." Pulled from the 'Redistribution of Health'achievement. Should we be including tips like this? Methods like this encourage players to be useless. --Flying Pyro 19:40, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Yea that is kinda cheap, I agree. Why not go the full hog and put 'go to an achievement server' for every one if we're going to put stuff like that in. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 19:42, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
Fixed. Added a more descriptive and legitimate strategy to obtain this achievement.--Flying Pyro 20:36, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
Yeah I guess it would be nice to have descriptions that only denote the mechanism of unlocking the achievement, otherwise it really is just achievement farming. Turboplant 00:57, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Re: Permanent Revolution

The guide denotes that you need to be constantly firing bullets with your gun to get this achievement, however the gun really only needs to stay wound up, even in the spawn room for that to work. Also, consider adding the time it takes and change the difficulty to "Easy." Turboplant 06:15, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Nah, the description only says the Heavy's Minigun needs to stay revved. I do see how it can be interpreted, though, so I went ahead and made it more specific. -- InShane 17:47, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
I do agree it's should be "easy." Just play payload, and you'll get it easily. Leaderboard class soldier.pngJust a Gigolo - (talk) 17:58, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
I went ahead an made the edits, do look over "Permanent Revolution" to make sure it meets wiki standards, I try very hard to adhere to this standard of language. Turboplant 22:40, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
Hey thanks to the guy who cleaned it up a little, you're a pal. :] Turboplant 00:53, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Also, is there a way to clean up those odd spaces between the achieve icons? And what dictates the color of the achievement helper's tab? Turboplant 23:17, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
As far as I know, there isn't much of a way to remove the spaces; it's part of the formatting they've created. The color of the tab corresponds to what is in the "difficulty" slot (Easy, Easy-Medium, etc). -- InShane 03:02, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
