Darktide Long Bomb Penance Guide

By
Craig Robinson

Darktide has many achievements, and each class has specific achievements to get. One of teh first ones players will want to do to get their hands on a new class cosmetic is the Long Bomb challenge, which requires players to kill three enemies without the grenade bouncing. Here is a quick tutorial on getting the Darktide Long Bomb Penance achievement.

Here is a quick guide to the Long Bomb challenge for the Sharpshooter Veteran in Darktide.

How to get the Long Bomb Penance in Darktide

To get this Long Bomb achievement in Darktide, you will need to kill three enemies without letting the grenade bounce one. This means you must throw your grenade high enough to land just above an enemy horde’s head. Grenades explode around five seconds after throwing them. If you’re on an elevated position, you will need higher, so the grenade counts down while on a higher throw and shorter range. If hordes are around 60 meters away, you must throw roughly 40-degree height.

As for the recommended place to get it, we suggest going to do it on the Logistratum Chasm level. This is one of the more open sky areas of any of the levels in the game, especially in the early levels. Therefore, you can get some eat practice throwing those grenades on this level, no matter whereabouts a horde comes. We managed to get it by standing at the back of the road that leads to the giant gothic temple building at the top of the road. We stood far back from the stairs, aimed around 35 degrees in the air, roughly where the arches are, and then throw. The grenade landed towards the bottom of the stairs without bouncing and took a horde out.

However, there are plenty of places throughout the start of the level, or after the railway section of the map, you can get this. Just be careful of elevated places, as you will need to throw it higher to get less distance traveled.

We recommend going into the Psykhanium on board the Morningstar if you need some practice. You can get lots of grenades, even if you miss them during the grenade tutorial on basic training. This will give you practice on the distance you need to stand and how high you need to throw it, ready for taking onto live missions where you can get the credit for the Long Bomb achievement.
