In Honkai: Star Rail, the False Pioneer is a secret achievement and part of a hidden quest on Lofu Xianzhou. To complete it, you will need to expose Dudu the Formless, who has transformed into you, proving that you are the Pioneer. To do this, you will have to answer a series of questions to the judges. In this guide, we will tell you how to do this.
How to Unlock the False Pioneer Achievement in Honkai: Star Rail
Where is the Prisoner: Dudu the Formless Scroll
First, complete the quest chain “Duel under the Azure Sky I”. Then, move to the anchor “Ice Prison I” located on Floor -1 in the House of Shackles. Turn around and go north, climbing the stairs to the top. Go to the blue barrier of the prison cell and pick up the scroll from the floor, illuminated by a sparkle.
As a result, you will receive the Prisoner List of the House of Shackles: Dudu the Formless. It tells of a certain werewolf who mimicked various creatures and committed various crimes such as espionage and fraud. Next, select the “Should I watch some more?” option to continue this secret quest.
Talk to the jailers and Suspect 1
After choosing the above phrase, the Patrol Jailer will approach you and be surprised to see you here. She will then suggest that Dudu has transformed into you. You can choose any answers, as you will still be transported to the Scriptorium.
Go forward to your double and listen to the conversation between him and the Confused Warden. Then, Hunting will appear, who will decide which of us is the criminal. Then, enter into a dialogue with Suspect 1. You can choose any answers, since this will not affect the course of further interrogation anyway.
The Correct Answer to Suspect 1's Question
Now, talk to Hunting and tell him that you are ready for interrogation. You will need to ask each other several questions, the correct answers to which only the real Pioneer knows. The judge will closely monitor you.
Suspect 1 will ask you, “How many floor lamps are there in the general carriage of the Star Express?” The correct answer is as follows:
- Four.
However, even if we give the correct answer, the shapeshifter will say that we simply guessed, continuing to insist that he is the real hero. So even if you are wrong, this will not affect the ending of the quest.
How to expose Duda the Formless
Next, you will need to ask the doppler a question. Again, you can choose any option, since this will not affect the ending, because Suspect 1 will still not give a direct answer, trying to get out of the situation:
- “How many in the common carriage…” – the werewolf will answer that there are “2”.
- “You know that Doctor Primitive…” – he will say that he knows, but will be surprised by our question.
- “You know that last time…” – he will ask what exactly his answer will prove in this case.
- “Who likes me the most…” – the werewolf will answer that they all definitely like him.
- “What number is…” – he will say “9”, and then will be surprised by our reaction.
After interrogating, Hunting will immediately order the arrest of Suspect 1. Then Hanya will appear, noting that it will be enough to have a fight between us to determine who is real. However, Dudu will immediately back down and confess his guilt. After finishing the conversation with your friend, you will unlock the False Pioneer trophy, as well as receive 5 thousand credits, 2 Condensed Ether, and 2 Adventure Logs.
Let's add that you can return to the place where you previously found the scroll and find Dudu the Formless in the cell. You will be able to ask the doppler various questions. Note that in the Russian localization, the name of this character is most likely a reference to the doppler Dudu (Telico Lungrevink Letort) from The Witcher.
