How to Complete Death by 1000 Darts Objectives

Upgrade Your Dustlander Weapons

Before starting this challenge, we recommend upgrading your Dustlander weapons. Doing this will increase their firepower and maximum ammo, making it easier to take out the faction specialists in the challenge.

How to Get Dustlander Weapons

Raise Marshall Notoriety

The Gatling Gunner is the miniboss for Marshall Defense Industries, appearing when you reach Notoriety Level 5. Gun down and run over Marshall members with vehicles to raise their alarms and increase your notoriety.

Once the Gatling Gunner appears, lower its health with your preferred weapons first before landing the killing blow with the Dustlander Crossbow to complete the first objective.

Contact Marshall

If you built the KAKTS Radio Venture, you can call Marshall out for a fight by selecting them from the Contacts app. Doing this sets your Marshall notoriety to Level 3, allowing you to spawn the Gatling Gunner faster.

Fight the Idols

The Raver is one of the specialist enemies in the Idols, easily identifiable by their spinning glowsticks. Like the previous objective, you can raise your Idols notoriety to draw a Raver out for you to fight. Take one of them out using the Dustlander Shotgun to complete the second objective.

Try Threats and @tchas

Alternatively, you can also find Ravers in Idols Threats and @tchas, so you can opt to go for these activities instead of raising your notoriety if you prefer.

Fight the Panteros

The Thumper is one of the specialist enemies in Los Panteros, carrying a large cannon that shoots out hard-hitting projectiles. Like the Gatling Gunner, you can raise your Panteros notoriety to draw a Thumper out for you to fight. Take one of them out using the Dustlander Revolver to complete the final objective.

Try Threats and @tchas

Like the Idols' Ravers, you can also find Thumpers in Panteros Threats and @tchas, so you can opt to go for these activities instead of raising your notoriety if you prefer.
