Conquer the Herc the Merc Challenge in BitLife: A Comprehensive Guide
This BitLife challenge blends gym workouts with a less-than-legal pursuit: murder. While the Assassin’s Blade offers a shortcut, this guide details how to complete the challenge regardless of your in-game assets.
Challenge Objectives:
Step-by-Step Walkthrough:
1. Birth in Greece: Begin by creating a new life, selecting Greece as your birthplace. Optional: If you possess the Crime Special Talent (from Job Packs), select it for easier enemy elimination.
2. Maintaining 100% Health: This requires consistent healthy choices. Avoid risky behaviors (alcohol, drugs, unprotected sex). Instead, prioritize health-boosting activities: gym visits, walks, seeking medical treatment when needed, healthy diets, meditation, and alternative therapies (acupuncture). Prayer can also provide a temporary health boost.
3. 10+ Gym Visits (Post-18): Once you turn 18, regularly visit the gym (Activities > Mind and Body > Gym). Secure a job to fund these visits. Note: Gym visits can lead to date offers; accept these to progress towards the marriage objective.
4. Eliminating 5+ Enemies: You’ll need enemies. You may acquire some naturally, or create them manually (Relationship tab > select a friend > choose "become enemies"). Once you have enemies, initiate murder (Activities > Crime > Murder). Select an enemy and choose "Strangle Them" as the method. Refresh the menu if this option isn't initially available. Repeat until you've eliminated at least five enemies. Ideally, complete this after other objectives to avoid jail time hindering progress.
5. Marrying a Gym Date: If you haven't already, obtain a date at the gym (Activities > Love > Date). Ensure the date prompt specifies meeting at the gym. Accept the date, cultivate your relationship, and propose once the time is right.
Completing these steps will successfully conclude the Herc the Merc Challenge. While in-game advantages are helpful, this challenge is entirely achievable without them.
