Complete Operation 01: Inferno.

Complete Operation 02: Decapitation.

Complete Operation 03: Vox Liberatis.

Complete Operation 04: Reliquary.

Complete Operation 05: Fall of Atreus.

Complete Operation 06: Ballistic Engine.

The recommended level for Ruthless is 20, but I was able to do it at level 6 with a competent squad. Operation 01: Inferno was very easy for this.

Pickups include Ammo Crates, Medicaid Packs, Grenade Refills, and Armor Boosts. To streamline progression, destroy the green crates scattered throughout the levels as they have a chance of dropping more pickups.

In Operations, enemies call for reinforcements when there is a skull icon over their head. The icon starts off as white and is slowly filled in with red. Kill the enemy calling for reinforcements before the icon fills up.

Max level in this game is 25. Grind Operations, ideally on Ruthless difficulty for the most XP. This achievement is a bit of a grind but can be obtained alongside "Strongest Shot" and "Sharpest Edge."

A Melee Weapon requires 25,700 XP to be maxed out. This is obtainable in about 15 missions depending on difficulty and gene seed collection.

A Ranged Weapon requires 25,700 XP to be maxed out. This is obtainable in about 15 missions depending on difficulty and gene seed collection.

This achievement will unlock once you unlock a full set of purple tier gear for any one of the classes.

Tactical Class players have access to 7 primary weapons, each requiring 25 kills overall:

• Bolt Carbine
  
• Auto Bolt Rifle
  
• Bolt Rifle
  
• Heavy Bolt Rifle
  
• Stalker Bolt Rifle
  
• Plasma Incinerator
  
• Melta Rifle

Fairly self explanatory, just requires a bit of aim skill.

While playing as the heavy, use the MMB to go into Heavy Stance.

Use your class ability when you see a large group of enemies while playing as the Assault class. Essentially, hold down Q to fly up then aim toward the center of the group of enemies in order to be the most effective and you'll Ground Pound.

The Bulwark has three melee weapons, each requiring 100 kills:

• Power Sword
  
• Power Fist
  
• Chainsword

The way I found easiest to perform Gun Strikes was using a low level melee on the high difficulties. Hitting lower tier Tyranids 2-3 times will allow you to Gun Strike them. For larger Tyranids, when they're executable meleeing them 1-2 times will allow you to perform a Gun Strike execution.

This achievement requires a bit of a luck, a friend, or a teammate who doesn't know how to dodge a Ravener. The Ravener is the snake like Tyranid that slithers around both above and underground. When the Ravener burrows under ground, it has a chance to do an attack where it resurfaces and grabs a player. When this happens, empty your weapon into the Ravener and the achievement should unlock.

Just as the achievement says. Operation: Burnout has the most Tyranids. I was able to kill just about 400 in one mission.

Just as the achievement says. Operation 03: Vox Liberatis has the most Chaos servants. I killed around 300 in one run of this mission

Simply win a game.

To get every Eternal War achievement, you need to play 30 matches (10 in each mode). You only need to win 6 of the 30 games, once you win a match on one class switch to another. This achievement should be easily achievable with a decent set of teammates.


Tactical: Generalist soldier that can wield all sorts of weapons.
Assault: Melee-focused class with a Jump Pack for aerial manoeuvres.
Vanguard: Close-range specialist that can grapple towards enemies.
Bulwark: Defensive support class that carries a shield.
Sniper: Long-range specialist that can go invisible.
Heavy: Hulking heavy weapons specialist.

Just as the achievement says. For the quickest experience, hope either your team stomps or gets stomped. Wins do not matter for this achievement.

For this achievement, the player needs to earn a 5 kill streak. Personally, I found using the Sniper class the easiest for this. The snipers high damage + the invisibility every 15 seconds makes it a breeze. The heavy with Iron Dome also looks like a solid choice, it just leaves you more vulnerable.

There are a total of 23 enemies that need to be marked.

• Hormgaunts (Campaign Mission 1+)
  
• Termagants (Campaign Mission 1+)
  
• Ravaner (Campaign Mission 2+)
  
• Lictor (Campaign Mission 2+)
  
• Zoanthrope (Campaign Mission 2+)
  
• Warrior with Lash Whip (Campaign Mission 2+)
  
• Warrior with Bone Sword (Campaign Mission 1+)
  
• Warrior with Venom Cannon (Campaign Mission 1+)
  
• Warrior with Barbed Strangler (Campaign Mission 3+)
  
• Warrior with Devourer (Campaign Mission 2+)
  
• Neurothrope (Campaign Mission 4)
  
• Carnifex (Campaign Mission 3/4)
  
• Hive Tyrant (Operation: Decapitation)
  
  CAN'T BE TAGGED: Spore Mines, Gargoyles, Ripper Swarms

• Cultist (Campaign Mission 3+)
  
• Cultist with LAS Cannon (Campaign Mission 5+)
  
• Tzaangors (Campaign Mission 3+)
  
• Rubric Marine with Inferno Bolter (Campaign Mission 3+)
  
• Rubric Marine with Flamethrower (Campaign Mission 4+)
  
• Lesser Sorcerer (Campaign Mission 5+)
  
• Terminator with Soulrepear (Campaign Mission 4+)
  
• Terminator with Sword (Campaign Mission 6/7)
  
• Imurah (Campaign Mission 5/7)
  
• Hellbrute (Campaign Mission 6/7)
  
• Helldrake (Operation: Reliquary)
  
  CAN'T BE TAGGED: Daemonhost, Daemon.

Note: This achievement can be a bit wonky. Imurah may need to be scanned twice, once in Operation Voidsong and once in Operation Dawn's Descent. Personally, my Carnifex scan only counted in the Campaign and was my last scan. You may also need to scan a Hormgaunt with Adrenal Glands, it's a Hormgaunt with glowing red eyes.

Whenever it is possible to execute an enemy, do it. Each enemy has a series of unique execution animations and we need 50. These execution animations change when you change your melee weapon.

Righteous Fury is the ability of Titus in the Campaign. Use this ability near enemies and kill them.

In Operation II: Severance, you'll be introduced to the Lictor enemy. The Lictor is an invisible assassin type enemy who stays out of melee range unless it is attacking a player. To unlock this achievement, simply put as many bullets into a Lictor as you can until it falls in bounds. If you successfully do this before the Lictor attacks someone, the achievement will unlock.

Lesser Sorcerers are Chaos enemies, they'll use an ability that causes them to turn into a bright blue ball. Kill them during this.

We need to find the Scarab Occult Terminator with Power Sword, it is an enemy that uses dual curved swords. Perfect parry 2 melees back to back to receive this achievement.

Explode enemies using the red and blue barrels scattered throughout the maps.

You'll have most likely unlocked this achievement through natural progression/progressing other achievements.

1. Launch Campaign Operation I: Skyfire
   
2. Progress until you reach a group of soldiers requiring reinforcements
   
3. When the soldiers tell you to fall back, reload the checkpoint
   
4. Rinse and Repeat

Using this method, I was netting between 150-250 kills a minute.

This achievement requires you to find collectibles called "Dataslates" that are scattered all throughout the campaign and CO-OP operations. Linked below are a Steam guide displaying the locations as well as a YouTube video with more detailed directions. Credit to the creators.
