Conquer the Herc the Merc Challenge in BitLife: A Comprehensive Guide
This BitLife challenge blends gym workouts with a decidedly less healthy activity: murder. While the Assassin's Blade is helpful, it's not essential. Follow these steps to succeed:
1. Greek Origins:
Begin by creating a new life, selecting Greece as your birthplace. Optional: If you own the Job Packs, choosing the Crime Special Talent provides a significant advantage for the murder aspect.
2. Peak Physical Condition:
Maintaining 100% health requires avoiding risky behaviors like alcohol, drugs, and unprotected sex. Focus on health-boosting activities: regular gym visits, walks, seeking medical attention when needed, healthy diets, meditation, and alternative treatments (acupuncture). Prayer can provide a temporary health boost if necessary.
3. Gym Rat:
Once you turn 18, consistently visit the gym (Activities > Mind and Body > Gym). Remember to secure a job to fund your gym habit. The 10+ visits don't need to occur within a single year. Accept any date offers received at the gym – this directly assists with the marriage requirement.
4. Eliminate Five Foes:
This requires creating enemies. You can either wait for random enemy encounters or proactively make enemies via the relationship tab (select a friend and choose the "become enemies" option). Once you have enemies, navigate to Activities > Crime > Murder. Select an enemy and choose "Strangle Them." If this option isn't available, close and reopen the menu. Repeat until you've eliminated at least five enemies. Ideally, complete this after other tasks to avoid jail time interfering with marriage plans.
5. Gym-Based Matrimony:
If you haven't already met a date at the gym, use Activities > Love > Date. Look for the encounter location; if it's the gym, accept the date. Nurture your relationship until they accept your marriage proposal.
Congratulations! You've completed the Herc the Merc Challenge. While helpful, special talents and items are not mandatory for success.
