How to Complete the Herc the Merc Challenge in BitLife

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 arsenal.

Challenge Objectives:

• Be born in Greece.
• Achieve 100% health.
• Visit the gym 10+ times after age 18.
• Strangle 5+ enemies to death.
• Marry someone you met at the gym.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough:

1. Greek Origins:

Begin by creating a new BitLife character, selecting Greece as your birthplace. The remaining character creation options are at your discretion. If you own the Job Packs and have the Crime Special Talent, selecting it will prove beneficial later.

2. Maintaining Peak Health:

Maintaining 100% health requires a proactive approach. Avoid risky behaviors like excessive alcohol consumption, drug use, and unprotected sex. Instead, focus on health-boosting activities: regular gym visits, walks, seeking medical treatment when needed, adopting a healthy diet, meditation, and exploring alternative therapies like acupuncture. Prayer can also provide a temporary health boost if necessary.

3. Gym Rat:

This is arguably the easiest objective. Once you turn 18, consistently visit the gym (Activities > Mind and Body > Gym). Remember, gym visits cost money, so securing a job beforehand is advisable. You don't need to hit the gym ten times in a single year; spread your visits out as needed. Accept any date offers you receive at the gym; this directly contributes to the final objective.

4. Eliminating Enemies:

This step requires creating enemies. You might acquire enemies naturally throughout your life; check your relationships tab regularly. If not, proactively create enemies by selecting a friend in the relationships tab and choosing the "Become Enemies" option.

Once you've established enemies, initiate murder (Activities > Crime > Murder). Select an enemy and choose "Strangle Them" as the method. If this option doesn't appear, close and reopen the menu. Repeat this process until you've eliminated at least five enemies. Ideally, complete this task last, as imprisonment can hinder progress on other objectives, especially marriage.

5. Gym Romance:

If you haven't already met a potential spouse at the gym, use the dating feature (Activities > Love > Date). Pay close attention to the "Met At" detail in the date pop-up. If it indicates you met at the gym, accept the date. Nurture your relationship until your date accepts your marriage proposal.

Conclusion:

By following these steps, you can successfully complete the Herc the Merc Challenge in BitLife. While in-game advantages like Special Talents and the Assassin's Blade can be helpful, they are not essential for success.
