DLC #2 - Borderlands - The Zombie Island of Dr.Ned

Definitely dead...

The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned DLC focuses around the short story of tracking down Dr. Ned on his secret island, and comes with an additional 5 trophies attached to the package.

This is a very straight forward offering of trophies, with 4 of the 5 trophies on offer simply through the progressing in the main story arc of the DLC, which takes no more than 2-4 hours to beat in full.

The "Braaaaaaaaaaaaaains!" trophy, awarded for completing the Braaaaaaaaaaaaains! side mission, is a stacking series of objectives where you collect zombie brains around the map through executing headshots on zombies. The missions have 5 tiers, and will require you collect a cumulative total of 435 brains, which contributes a good couple of extra hours onto the overall completion time of the package.

It is a little grindy, and it is also important to note that you can't save up all 435 brains in 1 go and deposit them all at once to end the string of quests. If you have more than the required amount saved up and you turn in the brains for a certain quest tier, it takes every brain in your inventory and only credits you for the amount that was needed for that part of the quest. Imagine saving up all 435 brains on the first tier (which is 10), handing in the first tier for completion, and seeing all 435 taken away from you and you're suddenly back to nothing on the second tier quest.

It only takes a few hours to get through all 5 tiers, so it's not a huge grind by any stretch, and you can expect to complete the main story arc in around the same amount of time, if not slightly longer.
