Conquer the Herc the Merc Challenge in BitLife: A Step-by-Step Guide

This BitLife challenge blends gym workouts with a less-than-legal pursuit: murder. While the Assassin's Blade offers an advantage, it's entirely conquerable without it. Let's break down how to succeed.

Challenge Objectives:

  • Born in Greece
  • 100% Health
  • 10+ Gym Visits (Post-18)
  • Strangle 5+ Enemies
  • Marry Someone Met at the Gym

1. Greek Beginnings:

Create a new life, selecting Greece as your birthplace. While optional, the Crime Special Talent (from Job Packs) significantly simplifies the murder aspect.

2. Maintaining Peak Health:

Achieving 100% health requires proactive choices. Avoid risky behaviors like substance abuse and unprotected sex. Instead, prioritize health-boosting activities: regular gym visits, walks, healthy diets, meditation, acupuncture, and prayer (for a quick boost). Seek medical treatment when needed.

3. Gym Rat:

Once you turn 18, consistently visit the gym (Activities > Mind and Body > Gym). This is straightforward, though it requires funds; secure a job beforehand. Remember, gym visits can lead to romantic encounters, aiding the final objective.

4. Eliminating Enemies:

This requires creating enemies. You might acquire them naturally, but you can proactively create them through the relationship tab by selecting a friend and choosing the "Become Enemies" option. Once you have targets, navigate to Activities > Crime > Murder. Select an enemy and choose "Strangle Them." If the option isn't available, refresh the menu. Repeat until you've eliminated at least five enemies. Note: It’s advisable to tackle this after other objectives, as jail time hinders progress.

5. Gym Romance:

If you haven't already met a potential spouse at the gym, use Activities > Love > Date. Ensure the date origin states "met at the gym" before accepting. Cultivate your relationship until they accept your proposal and marriage.

Completing these steps secures victory in the Herc the Merc Challenge. While helpful, special talents and items are not essential for success.
