[b][i]FFA[/i] Means 'Free For All' (Rumble Pit, Lone Wolves)[/b]
[b]Were In For Some Chop (Campaign Or Ranked)
[/b] on 'Tsavo Highway' where you see the chopper run over the warthog for the first time, go into that bunker next to it, there are 2 tripmines. Make sure that the marine on the turret is either dead, or out of range of the choppers or he might shoot the brutes out of them, meaning you cannot get the achievement.
place both of them in generally the same spot on the road, then you will destroy the chopper that runs over them. OR, shoot at the chopper/throw grenades at it until 2 parts of plating come off it, then you will only need to use 1 tripmine.
[b]NOTE:[u] You might need to revert to last checkpoint as it might take a few tries.[/u][/b]

[b]Used Car Salesman (Campaign Or Ranked)
[/b] On 'The Ark' When you see the prowlers for the first time, go to the pelican, there is a rocket launcher, before the prowlers stop to drop the brutes off, shoot the prowler, 1 of them has 2 passengers, a driver and a gunner. that will get you the achievement IF you manage to kill them all along with the prowler.
[b][u]OR[/b][/u]
Play 'Crows Nest' through until you get to to the main hanger, where about 3 covenant dropships come in and drop off troops.
stick the main gun turret of any of the 3 ships and you should get the achievement.

[b]Too Close To The Sun (Campaign Or Ranked)
[/b] On 'The Covenant' Keep the spartan laser that you started off with. kill every enemy and the AA Wraith to clear a landing zone for the pelican to drop off your warthog, mongoose.
[i][b][u] DO NOT GET ON THE MONGOOSE OR THIS WILL NOT WORK[/b][/u][/i]
once you are in the warthog, drive down the designated path until you get to the turn, jump out of your warthog and blow up 1 of the 2 banshees that attack you. it could be a bit tricky for the not-so-strong aimers, as you cant scope because you will be getting shot at, taking you out of it.

[b]Mongoose Mowdown (Ranked FFA Only)
[/b] Drive around on any multiplayer map on a mongoose, run into people as often as possible, after a short while you will hit someone without shields, killing them, or if someone is running towards you, hit them, as it is the only way to kill someone with full shields using a mongoose.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Steppin' Razor (Ranked FFA Only)
[/b] Play lone wolves until you get 'swords' on Snowbound, go into the bottom area where the shotgun normally spawns, try your best not to die and kill people that just finished a fight, or that have just walked out and after a very short while you will get Steppin' Razor Achievement.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Triple Kill/Overkill (Ranked FFA Only)
[/b] if you get Steppin' Razor (referr to above) You will get the triple kill, if you are lucky you will be able to score another kill after your triple, making it a Steppin' Razor -Triple - Overkill. 3 achievements in 1!
[i]IF[/i] you are finding overkill too hard, The Pit. Whore the turret and kill every moving thing you see. i have managed to get many triples like this but no overkills. but you might get lucky.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Killing Frenzy (Ranked FFA Only)
[/b] Well this one is kind of simple, if you dont mind coming last in a King Of The Hill game, wait until you get it on the pit (how i got mine). Get on the turret and kill everyone that steps into the 'Hill', you should get Killing Frenzy pretty quickly.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]2 For 1 (Ranked FFA Only)
[/b] Wait until you get a 'King Of The Hill' game on Snowbound or another map with a spartan laser, wait until you see 2-5 players fighting in the hill, fire a shot into a person and hope someone is behind them/near them with no shields, and you will score yourself the '2 for 1' achievement.
[b][u]OR[/b][/u]
When you pickup the spartan laser on any map, keep charging it without actually firing, wait until you spot someone high-jacking another person (sometimes riding on the back of another persons mongoose), then fire your laser when you see both players on the vehicle.
the point of charging your laser is because it takes 2 seconds to highjack a ghost, and 4 seconds to charge the laser, it basically gives you enough time to get them both at once.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Maybe Next Time, Buddy (Ranked Or Social FFA)
[/b]When you get matched on a small map with a ghost, such as highground or snowbound, get the ghost and wedge it into a small space, it doesnt have to be entirely wedged in, just to make it take a little bit to get out. such as where the cloaking spawns on highground, or where the shotgun spawns in Snowbound. wait until someone walks past, sees your ghost and thinks they will be able to get it out of where it is now. when they jack it, you will go into lockdown, which lasts about 3 seconds, jack it back and you get your achievement!
[b][u]NOTE: This May Take A Few Attempts, As Someone Might Decide To Stick Or Melee
You, Instead Of Boarding Your Ghost.[/u]

HeadShot Honcho (Campaign Or Ranked FFA)[/b]
[i]I recommend you try getting this in ranked, because FFA is just way to hard.[/i]
Play on the level [i]'The Ark'[/i], when you are at the sniping spot, take headshots on everything you see, if the enemy keep moving, just wait until they land somewhere, then shoot them.
[b][u]NOTE: You might not get this in the first area, so you will need to move onto the next.[/b][/u]

[b]Lee R Wilson Memorial (Ranked FFA Only)[/b]
Run around in lone wolves, make make sure your packing some plasma nades' at all times.
go totally suicidal, and run into people (i suggest you get as close as you can) and throw the grenade, it will stick them almost every time. repeat this 4 more times, and you got the achievement.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Up Close And Personal (Ranked FFA Only)[/b]
Bust up some suckers with the back of your gun in lone wolves. =)
Pretty self-explanitory.
[quote] [/quote]
[b] Fear The Pink Mist (Campaign Or Ranked FFA)[/b]
This is a really easy achievment to earn. Find the needler in whichever map you are playing on, Then just point and shoot.
if you want to get it in campaign, a good mission get it on is '[i]The Covenant'[/i], as you get the needler pretty early in the level.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]MVP (Any Matchmaking Playlist)[/b]
Earn 'MVP' in any matchmaking playlist.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Campaign Complete - [u]Legendary[/u][/b]
Get A Partner Or 2, preferably people that live near you, as it reduces the lag SEVERLY.
it will also help to just let a spare controller be turned on, to be a [i]"spawner"[/i]. this will stay a distance behind; making a safe spot; letting you respawn instantly if you die.
Do this for all missions.

[b]Meta Game Achievements:[/b]
Run through campaign on normal again, but with campaign scoring on, and put the following skulls on:
- IWHBYD
- Grunts B'day
- Tilt
- Tough Luck
- Fog
- Famine
- Catch.
These are the skulls i used, but you do not need to use these. skulls will help a lot to get the points required for the achievement.
[b]Note: [u]you might need to run through a certain level again, if you didnt manage to rack up enough points. i had to do this for 2 missions, cortana & floodgate.[/b][/u]

[b]Marathon Man (Campaign Only)[/b]
[url=http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=V0QCiP4SVEY&feature=related]this is a great video showing all of the locations of the terminals.[/url]
[quote] I've Been To Every Terminal And Kept It Open It Until It Went Red. But I Didn't Get Marathon Man...Why?[/quote]
Because you need to wait a decent amount longer, until you see another wall of text after the first.
[quote] [/quote]
[b]Skulls:[/b]
[url=http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=XIE7I2OPgyA]This[/url] is a video, showing detailed clips of where to find the skulls. i recommend it, and you will find it is very helpful.
[url=http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=62U_iE5bW8w&feature=related]This[/url] is a more detailed version to get the IWHBYD skull. but 1346754654534 is the long code. you will only need to use: 4654534.
