You might wonder 'The hell does Fighter - No Weapon?' mean and it's simple:

A Fighter is a kind of Survivor who can (and will) fight against zombies. 'No Weapon' means they starts with no weapons - simple as that.


To get this achievement, you must escort 8 people AT ONCE (which is also the most amount of people you can). I find this achievement very easy to do, to the point I do it on every single one of my playthroughs.


Note that this achievement is based of a level 1, no DLC game like stated above. If you're lv 50 and use DLC, good for you. Nothing's stopping you from that. Only difference is that it's gonna be a little easier.

Note that this entire walkthrough takes place during Day 1.


When you start the game, head to Silver Strip and go to The Little Duck Bingo. Grab the Leadership magazine in here and then wait until it hits 4:00 AM before entering Yucatan Casino. This will cause a cutscene to happen, after which you'll fight a Psycopath (Ted). He's very easy - grab the Fire Axe near where you start, then just whack him with it until he drops down.

Once done, hurry on inside where he spawned - there's 3 steaks in there (one on the small pillar near the wall you see, the other 2 are on the ledge next to the pillar).
Pick up all 3 and throw down. Next, STAND STILL if you have the steaks thrown out and see Snowflake come towards you from the same location the steaks are. If you move, she'll ignore the steaks and attack you. DO NOT MOVE. GOT THAT?

Only move if you're gonna throw out the steaks again or need a healing item. Or to get zombies off Snowflake's back. But basically, do not move if you can help it.

Once she's eaten all 3 (I advice you to kill any zombies that tries attacking her, as it'll make her fail to finish eating). Once done, head to the Employee Room and grab Lenny. Lenny is a fighter, so give him a weapon (I usually give him the Fire Axe).
Grab the LMG from the Lucky Marble minigame and head to Roy's Mart.
You now have 1/8 Survivors (Snowflake will enter the Safe House, regardless of what you do - she'll also follow you to the next room, regardless of how far away she is).

Head to Roy's Mart to grab the first Zombrex.
Note that since Snowflake is with you, this fight is a joke - she'll probably kill all 3 by herself.

Grab the Zombrex, speak to Denyce and give her the LMG you picked up (or any other weapon, really).

Head back to the Safe Room, but DO NOT ENTER. First, make a waypoint (hold RMB and press Q if you're playing on a keyboard) for Lenny and Denyce so they won't enter it. I usually do it near the stairs. Wait until 6:55 AM to enter. Snowflake will enter at this point, so head to the control room, give Snowflake to Katey (if you're doing a lv 1 run or if you want to - I don't care either way) and give Katey the Zombrex the instance it becomes 7:00 AM. Note that Denyce and Lenny WILL be taking damage while waiting for you to come back out, so spend as little time in here as possible!


Once you've done that, hurry on outside. Bring another weapon with you (I usually grab a Fire Axe).


You're now 1/4th done with the achievement! Good for you!

The following 2 survivors spawns at 6:45 AM, but I advice against grabbing them until you've given Katey her Zombrex.

LaShawndra is very easy to spot - once you exit the hallway, she'll stand in the café and try to not get murdered by zombies.
Head to her and recruit her. She starts with a steel pipe, but I'm not a fan of it, so I usually grab the Sledgehammer before getting her to give it to her. Still, it's your own choice. I don't mind.

Once you have her, head to Casual Gals and grab Gordon. If he doesn't join at once, simply attack him once without a weapon. This'll cause him to join.

Give him a Fire Axe or Sledgehammer (or really, any weapon you have on hand).


You're now halfway through with the achievement! Hang in there buddy!

The next 2 survivors comes from the mission 'Lost...'

Note that this mission doesn't start until 9:00 AM, so hang out in Royal Flush Plaza until it shows up. Once it does, head outside and grab Chad (he's usually near Dining at Davey's). He'll NOT follow you if there's too many zombies around, but having a shotgun, he'll dispatch of them pretty easily.


Once you have him, find Doris (she's near the Arena, on the south side of the map). She has a Handgun (which is pretty OK, but not the best weapon). If you have something better (like a spare Shotgun), feel free to give it to her.

You're now 3/4th done, with only 2 more survivors to go! (So, you have 6 Survivors, all of which can fight).

You now have a choice and I'll list what your choices will be in the next section.

Non-Fighter is exactly what it sounds like: SHE CANNOT FIGHT. She is also the main reason I told you to grab the Leadership magazine way back. This'll make her move at a much higher speed (roughly double her normal walking speed), making her MUCH easier to save.


Eshter will spawn in Royal Flush Plaza, so hang out in Silver Strip until you get a call about her. Her mission is called Short Sighted. She's on the second floor of the Royal Flush Plaza.

Go and grab her and you'll now have to decide:

EITHER you'll go to Case 1-2 and grab Rebecca Chang (who has a Handgun) OR you'll wait and instead complete Lush-ious Lady. If you choose to do this one, refer to the next section.

Otherwise, simply activate the marker to head to where Rebecca is and it'll pop up. Should it NOT pop up (it did for me when I first tried), refer to Lush-ious Lady instead (after you dump Rebecca in a bit).

WARNING: THIS MISSION DOES NOT START UNTIL 2:00 PM ON DAY 1 SO I HIGHLY ADVICE AGAINST DOING THIS ONE. While you can and STILL complete Case 1-4, the time is very tight, as Case 1-4 ends at 5:00 PM, leaving you with only 3 hours to screw up on.

Still, if you decide to do this one, I won't stop you.

You'll get a call about Stacey finding a dancer in Americana Casino. Because of hungover she is, she can't fight. Instead, you'll have to carry her.

OR let her walk by herself. You have the Leadership Magazine, don't you? This'll make her walk at about twice the normal speed (again). It's highly adviced you bring it with you.



Once you have her (if you decided to ignore Rebecca), congratulations! The achievement will now pop up!

You're now free to kill them (should you want to, for some reason) or simply bring them back to the Safe House (for a truckload of PP).

What's that? Eshter didn't spawn, or you're just *hellbent* on having all survivors fight? Or you accidentally went back and dumped a Survivor?

You're in luck, but I highly advice you complete case 1-4 before that, in that case. Enter the Safe Room without the Survivors and be in there for as short time as possible again.

One thing you can do if you want all fighters but Esther and Kristin spawned: make a waypoint and escort those two SPECIFICALLY to the Safe House (as you can help both of them). Make sure the other survivors are far away before you enter with those 2.

At 5:00 PM, you'll get a call saying that Stacey found 2 Survivors in Fortune City Arena.

Head over there and bring a Fire Extinguisher with you (there's also one there, but I prefer to grab the one in the Safe House).
Hurry over to the Arena and head where you started the game. See the fire? That's bad. Put it out with the Fire Extinguisher I told you to bring.

Once you've done so, head inside. Speak to them and they'll both join you. Elrod starts with a weapon, but you'll have to get Trixie-Lynn something. I usually get her a Fire Axe from the Safe House, a Sledgehammer, a Broadsword or an Electric Guitar.


Congratulations, you have 8 Survivors with you, and all of them can fight! Good for you!

Pat yourself on the back and dump them (or kill them) so you can carry on with the game.
