NaK Quinn Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Easily done with a Co-Op partner. Take FIM92 Stinger's and MGL MK-X's. Hit him with stingers locked on, 2 shots each. Then run over to him, one player go left, one right. Tag him repeatedly with MGL rounds and he goes down very easy. Took us 2 tries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cohort Brian Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I did this solo with no problem in 3 tries. Loaded AK-47 with front grip, start shooting immediately when you take control of your character and set your AI partner to group/aggressive. Aim for Dalton's head or crotch as he's heavily armored in the chest and limbs. Holding the left trigger for better aim while moving towards him allowed me to stay on a sweet spot to take him down in about 10 seconds on one magazine. Once he falls, jun run up to him, reload along the way. In the 2-3 seconds it takes you to get to him, your partner should have his aggro high enough that Dalton will not notice you and let you unload on his head at semi-close range. Cake. RPGs/Stingers are crap because they take too long to reload/lock on for the damage they do and the MGL's ammo is too limited unless you're dead on with it while he's on the balcony. The ONLY reason it took a few tries is because of all the grenades being spammed in the room. This is why I said to move forward while shooting him... you should move just far enough to avoid them as most of them will bounce behind you. If you get knocked down from a nade blast you still might be able to get it, I dunno. If anyone sees me online and wants help trying it, make sure you're at the checkpoint and add/invite me and we'll try it. I'm usually only on the mornings, though and I might not be using my mic.

JB330 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 With my AI partner in aggressive/regroup mode I used the AK47 to knock him down. I had time to reload and use 2 clips. Then I used the Light 50 sniper to finish him off. It took 3 headshots and I got it the first try using these weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WackFiend Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I'm having pretty good success with the AK-47 strategy. The only problem I am having thus far is killing him fast enough when he is on the catwalk. There are times when I'll kill him shortly after he pauses after walking to the right. Whenever that happens though I always seem to fuck up killing him when he hits the ground. Most of the time It takes me just into my second clip to bring him off the catwalk, and then once he hits the ground he's dead in like 10 seconds. Question: does the brief cutscene of him jumping down count towards the 40 seconds, or no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question: does the brief cutscene of him jumping down count towards the 40 seconds, or no? Sorry for the long wait before answering, but yes. The cutscene of him falling does count. As for the best method, try using an AK47 fully upgraded to get him down, then snipe him with the light 50, headshots are obviously the best. If either of you've got the SAL-86 (preorder grenade sniper, they were handing out codes a little over a year ago on the EA forums, don't know if that's done or not) that works pretty well also because it can take away about 25-40% of his remaining health with a single hit, but only if you've got a partner that's also popping him with a sniper.

kaospojken Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Well do I find myself being the only one that doesn't have this one finished or is there anyone that could think of doing it with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kulkun Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Yeah it can be pretty awful. I used the AK47 method by sending rios to advance in aggressive mode while ducking behind the first shelves to the right and unloading. He dropped at the halfway mark on the first catwalk (where he normally stops). Ran up on him as quick as I could after that and unloaded into his head and that killed him. Took like 4 tries after I began ducking behind the shelves. I find it helps because not only do the jerks not unload into you, taking you down half the time, but you also line up a little better with Dalton's path which makes more of your shots connect. Be sure to remove stuff you don't really use in this lvl like the shield mount and pimpage. Wanna maximize damage and then minimize aggro. I removed the silencer just cause I wanted the extra damage.

hamfam9598 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I made it using the stingers and gernade launchers. My friend and I each hit one stinger each then switched to the launchers. We tried the AK47 method like 30 times and could not make it happen. Finally go the full 1250/1250:Bounce: Thanks to emnm slayer fan he stuck with me to the end!

iLy Rage Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Me and my buddy used the MGL,the last gun in Primary, and the light 50 cal. We did it in one try like this and had quite a bit of time left over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamCL57 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I just got this today. Omg it's a pain. You have to get him down pretty fast and then get 3-4 headshots on him before he dives into cover. It's almost a matter of luck. If you don't have to retirement savings achievement, do this repeatedly from the start menu by loading checkpoint to earn that 75k over and over again.

Veedrock Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) Retirement Savings Plan has to be done in Ranked Online matches, says so right in the achievement description: Retirement Savings Plan Earn one billion dollars in total in ranked matches. Anyways, regarding this 40 second kill achievement, I remember playing with my friend and using the method in the achievement guide. Stingers take entirely too long iirc, it was costing us good time waiting to reload and lock-on each time. After we went to ARs (I used the PMK, friend used the AK47), we rocked him off the platform fast. Then after he falls it's a matter of being accurate with your sniper shots, which I think we finally managed after 3 or 4 tries. Doesn't necessarily have to be headshots, you just have to unload quickly and accurately. I still haven't beaten him on Professional (haven't tried in awhile though). That's a tough fight, harder for me than the 40 second kill. Edited July 24, 2011 by Veedrock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coadster1 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Got this one today, but using the guide's method. It took us a few tries but we got it. We used PMKs to knock him off the catwalk, and once he was down used M107 snipers to get a few headshots and finish him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkx3no Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Just solo'd this last night. 3 head shots while on the catwalk and he falls, you can litterally get him off the catwalk in 3 seconds if your headshots are perfect (took me a few tries but 3 shots got him down). Once hes on the ground, this part is a bit of luck. I ran to the right an aimed with the sniper rifle, I want to say I attempted this achievement 10 times, and 7 out of the 10 he just hide behind the barrier. The time I finally did it, his head was barely sticking up over the barrier and 2-3 more shots finished him off. I tried running up to him with the grenade launcher but that takes too much time. If you are going to solo this you almost have to snipe him to do it in time. Crotch shots will make him fall over, so if your having trouble with him moving, shoot his crotch then hit his head. Super quick if you are a good sniper and easily soloable. With a REALY person couch co-oping with you, this should be NO problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get knocked down from a nade blast you still might be able to get it, I dunno. This is definetly an exaggeration if not a lie. I would not follow this method. The AK does not have enough ammo to get him down in time with as far away from him as you are. I tried this method as well as the SAW method, neither gun pump out enough damage accurately enough. You could unload an entire clip and maybe get 1 headshot. These guns would easily work if you have a real person co-oping with you...but will not work with AI. It takes closer to 10 seconds to actually run over to him not 2-3..and 90% of the time he just hides behind the barrier whether your partner has aggro or not. If you are knocking him down and getting him down as quickly as you CLAIM, then he will not even toss one grenade...the other enemies in the room barely hit you at all. He needs to be OFF the catwalk realistically when he stops in the middle of the catwalk on his own..if he gets to the 2nd turn you have no chance of finishing him off, unless you snipe him on the ground..and that is serisouly luck based. With the AK/SAW I tried many times and could NEVER get him down until he was well past the 2nd turn...and I like to think I have very good head shot aiming ability...as with my previous post I was able to get him off with the sniper rifle with 3 shots. For anyone attempting this solo I would just try to do it with the sniper..you can probably get it with the grenade launcher and sniper, but once he is on the ground you have to make sure you are sniping immediately and get lucky headshots. without him hiding.
