    Enviromental attacks means the Leaf Guys' turnip attack. Note that sometimes they attack Bowser immediately but sometimes they don't.

    Weaken Wiggler then suck in the Leaf Guys holding the turnip. The turnip will fall onto Wriggler's head.

    Very RNG achievement because you have to get the turnip the same turn the wiggler is weakened, i needed almost a hour of fight

    Noting that dealing 0-damage attacks to the head while it's red is allowed. It will take a total of 4 big turnips to defeat Wiggler.

    My strategy was to turn all but one body segment yellow and then when the turnip guys appear I would hit the remaining one. Most of the time they wouldnt attack immediately so I could just suck them in.

    This took me an hour to get. Like Zomoroko said, attacks to the head while Wiggler is red will not count as harming it. This achievement for me was a lot of rng. Try getting rid of the first 3 body parts first leaving the back red, stall attacks with the Vacuum block until one of the turnip shy guys appear above. Depending on what Wiggler does here depends on what you do. They will appear during Wigglerโ€™s turn so keep an eye out in case Wiggler decides to run circles around you. If you can, take out the last body part during the turn they appear. If Wiggler instead pulls turnips and those shy guys out of the ground, dodge the attacks until it is your turn. Every instance for me here, if I went and attacked the last body part then the shy guys above will drop them on me immediately, in this scenario, punch the head and Wiggler should attack. This whole thing is just a LOT of RNG so keep at it until you eventually win.

    When recently starting this game and wanting to gain the achivements for it , this seemed like one of the most intimidating / time consuming ones.
    Gladly tho i could get it done in around 15 Minutes (Might have been RNG but ill share my experience)

    - Hitting the head for 0 damage (Basically hitting the head while its Red) wont invalidate the Achivement
    - You can only damage wiggler using the big turnip flying above his head (You will need abt 5 for this[Dont Qoute me on the exact number])
    - When he does the charge attack try stalling for time by hitting the head or using the vacuum block
    - Once he has the turnip above him try getting him into the weakend state by hitting his last body piece (IDK if this does anything but i had more luck with the shy guys not attacking me if i only did a weak hit on the piece)
    - If you are unable to get him into a weakend state , hit once of his body pieces or hit the head and then hope he attacks once more , get him into a weakend state in that

    Holy COW that was tough, I can see this master is going to take awhile

    Going after what SiIverLeaf said, I find it best to ONLY attack the head. If you go to turn each segment individually and wait, the attack where he runs straight at you can mess up the pattern, but if he does that attack while the whole body if red you can change the front three segments for free and he will no longer use that attack.

    Then it is just a matter of waiting until the turnip appears, punching the last segment(If the turnip appears on the attack where he runs around you just punch it there, you can't see but can hear the Leaf Guys flying in with it), hoping they don't drop it on you (I think it is a bit better than a 50% chance in your favor, and if you weakened him on a counter attack then you don't have to worry about this), then inhaling them.
