Pest Control

Pest Control asks you to kill 100 Scorpions, and despite that triple-digit number it sits at a gentle 1-star difficulty with a 5-diamond reward. Scorpions are not a boss-tier threat; they are recurring desert-style critters that spawn in waves, so the badge is far more about persistence than skill.

The smart way to grind this is to play deep, long runs rather than restarting early. Scorpions hit fast and can stack poison-style chip damage, so keep a melee weapon with decent swing speed and clear them in small groups instead of letting a swarm surround you. Standing near a fire or your camp lets teammates assist, and the kills still count toward your personal total.

Because the 100 kills accumulate across multiple sessions rather than needing one perfect run, treat this as a passive objective: kill every scorpion you encounter naturally while pursuing other goals, and the badge will pop on its own. Bring backup food so a scorpion's chip damage never forces you to retreat, and you will clear all 100 without ever feeling like you grinded for it.
