One of the many commendations you can complete while you create chaos across the Sea of Thieves is the ‘Enticing Explosion’ commendation.
To complete the commendation, you must hit a skeleton holding a Gunpowder Barrel using a Lure Dart.
You’ll want to sail or dive to the nearest Skeleton Camp to start working on this commendation!
Enticing Explosion
To complete the ‘Enticing Explosion’ commendation, you must hit a skeleton holding a Gunpowder Barrel using a Lure Dart 25 times.
You can find Skeletons holding Gunpowder Barrels randomly on islands, during Order of Souls Voyages, and throughout Skeleton Fort World Events. However, you are guaranteed to find Skeletons holding Gunpowder Barrels in the Ancient Temples below Skeleton Camps while trying to stop a Ritual.
You can sail or dive to a Skeleton Camp to encounter the Skeletons holding Gunpowder Barrels. Once you are at the Skeleton Camp, use the lift down to the Ancient Temple and solve the Constellation Puzzle.
After you solve the puzzle, several waves of Obsidian Skeletons will attack you. Each wave will have one Skeleton holding a Gunpowder Barrel. Shoot the Skeleton holding the Gunpowder Barrel with a Lure Dart to progress the Commendation.
Make sure you hit the Skeleton with the Lure Dart. Hitting the Gunpowder Barrel, the Skeleton is holding will not count. You can aim for its feet to ensure you hit the Skeleton.
While you can hit different Skeletons holding Gunpowder Barrels for credit, it is possible to hit the same Skeleton repeatedly.
