Players looking to enhance their experience in the popular game Peak can now pursue the coveted Ultimate Badge. This achievement requires a specific challenge that can be completed in any biome, making it accessible yet demanding. Understanding the mechanics of this challenge is crucial for players aiming to secure this badge during their runs.
How to Achieve the Ultimate Badge
To unlock the Ultimate Badge, players must successfully throw a flying disc, commonly known as a frisbee, over a distance of 100 meters. This challenge can be attempted in any biome, but the task is significantly easier in areas with wide-open spaces, such as the mesa or the beginning of the tropics. Choosing the right location is vital, as players want to avoid the risk of throwing the frisbee off the mountain where it may be difficult to retrieve.
One of the best spots to find the flying disc is at the crash site located in the Shore biome. Unlike items such as Bing Bong or the compass, the frisbee can be found around the exterior of the plane wreckage. As it occupies an inventory slot, players are encouraged to complete this challenge promptly, allowing them to exchange the frisbee for other useful items.
Executing the Frisbee Challenge
Completing the challenge successfully requires coordination between players. Once both are positioned, one player should aim carefully and hold the Q key to bring up the power bar, adjusting the strength of their throw for the long distance. Releasing the frisbee at the right moment is crucial, as is ensuring that the catching player is ready to receive it. Both players need to catch the frisbee in order to unlock the badge; if the achievement notification does not appear after the catch, it may indicate that the throw did not meet the required distance.
Since there is no built-in measurement tool to determine the distance between players, some guesswork is involved. Players may need to experiment with their positioning to accurately gauge the 100-meter mark. Flat ground is preferable to avoid obstacles such as rocks or vines that could obstruct the throw.
In a pinch, players can stand atop a mountain and throw the frisbee downwards, though this method presents its own challenges. If the throw is unsuccessful, retrieving the frisbee might become a cumbersome task, especially if the catching player misses.
For players eager to earn the Ultimate Badge, following these steps will enhance the likelihood of success. With practice and coordination, players can add this achievement to their collection, making their journey through Peak all the more rewarding.
