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 darker side – 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 character, selecting Greece as your birthplace. The Crime Special Talent (from Job Packs) is advantageous but optional.

2. Peak Health: Maintaining 100% health requires mindful choices. Avoid risky behaviors like alcohol, drugs, and unprotected sex. Instead, prioritize health-boosting activities: regular gym visits, walks, seeking medical treatment when needed, healthy diets, meditation, and alternative therapies (acupuncture). Prayer can provide a temporary health boost.

3. Gym Rat: Once you turn 18, frequently visit the gym (Activities > Mind and Body > Gym). This is easily achievable over time. Remember, securing a job is crucial to afford gym memberships. Gym visits also offer dating opportunities, aiding in the final task.

4. Eliminate 5+ Enemies: This requires creating enemies. You can make enemies randomly throughout the game or intentionally by selecting a friend (Relationship tab) and choosing the "become enemies" option. Once you have enemies, initiate murder (Activities > Crime > Murder). Select an enemy and choose "Strangle Them." If this option isn't available, refresh the menu by closing and reopening it. Repeat until you've eliminated at least five enemies. It's wise to complete this task last to avoid jail time, which hinders other objectives.

5. Gym Romance: If you haven't met a potential spouse at the gym, use the dating feature (Activities > Love > Date). Look for the "Met at the Gym" designation in the date encounter pop-up. Accept the date, nurture the relationship, and propose when the time is right.

Successfully completing these steps will grant you victory in the Herc the Merc Challenge. While helpful, special talents and items aren't strictly necessary.
