Learn how to complete the Impressive Aim challenge in Dead Island 2. This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough to throw a melee weapon and hit a zombie from 35+ meters away.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Make your way to Emma's house in Bel-Air.
  2. 2
    Exit through the western doors and head northwest, climbing the gate near the dumpster.
  3. 3
    Go through another gate and climb stairs to reach the back/pool area of the first mansion.
  4. 4
    If you need weapons, go upstairs to find Pool Cues. You can find a third pool cue downstairs opposite the pool.
  5. 5
    Head down to the pool area.
  6. 6
    Go up a short flight of stairs to the west, then turn left (south).
  7. 7
    Go through the gate to the west and follow the path down to a tennis court.
  8. 8
    Clear all zombies from the tennis court.
  9. 9
    Open the door to the west and look downhill to the southwest to spot the gate leading to Beverly Hills.
  10. 10
    Several military zombies are usually found here, often one gnawing on a corpse near the Beverly Hills transition.
  11. 11
    Pick the furthest zombie, wait for it to stop moving if necessary.
  12. 12
    Equip your Pool Cue javelin.
  13. 13
    Stand BEHIND the door separating the tennis court from the area beyond to gain enough distance. You need to be a few steps behind the door, seeing the full door and part of the fence to the right.
  14. 14
    Aim for the sky, with your reticle likely needing to be in the blue sky above the palm trees.
  15. 15
    Throw the weapon.
Tips
  • The challenge requires hitting a zombie 35+ meters away (approximately 100 feet).
  • Elevated positions help due to the weapon's fall arc.
  • Ideal spots are not common as enemies spawn relatively close.
  • If you miss, run back to Emma's house, fast travel away, and return to try again.
  • If you run out of pool cues or alert the zombies, retreat and try again.
  • The game's spawn-in distance for enemies is close to 35m, so finding the right spot is key.
