| Obtain-text = This is a grind achievement, albeit a fairly long one.  The best way to get this is to place regular Sentry Guns in good locations, either in easily defensible positions on defense, or by taking players by surprise on offense. However, also remember that Combat Mini-Sentries deploy in less than two seconds, and if used correctly can net you surprise kills.

| Obtain-text = If you are doing this at long range, keep on the move so you don't take a bullet and/or arrow to the face while attempting this.  You can also try using the [[Gunslinger]] and placing a Mini-Sentry close to an inattentive Sniper if you manage to get the drop on him, and using the Wrangler to quickly take care of him at close range.  Keep an eye on any Snipers looking through their scope or drawing their Huntsman, as even without a headshot, a charged body shot will still kill you in one hit if you are not overhealed.

| Obtain-text = It will help a lot to have a second Engineer to keep your Sentry Gun in good shape while you keep the shield and firepower up in the meantime. Note that a level 2 Sentry Gun has 540 health with the Wrangler, while a level 3 has 648. Also try to take advantage of the fact that most enemy attacks will come in waves, and repair your gun during the downtime if there aren't any other Engineers around.

| obtain-level = Hard
| Obtain-text = Your Sentry Gun is usually the best building to choose for this, as it can shoot back at any enemies within range trying to destroy it, but this achievement can be done on any building, even one that is not your own.  Still, even at level 3 Sentry Guns have a hard time lasting that long unless they are under the control of a Wrangler; after a while enemy players will either try to Sap it, or send an ÜberCharge after it.  If things are looking bad, you can pick your structure up in order to prevent it from taking damage, but that will expose you to fire instead.  Be cautious with that tactic as if you are killed while hauling a structure, the structure is lost as well.  A good place to try for this achievement is on a CTF map such as 2Fort, where the flow of attackers is often manageable and the round lasts long enough for you to get this achievement.  If you are very conservative, you can even build near a spawn point and retreat there carrying your target structure during periods of extreme danger.

| Obtain-text = A grind achievement, this does not need to be done in a single life. Just keep an eye on the health levels of friendly Engineers' buildings as well as your own, and assist them in defense whenever possible. Unless the Engineer who built the buildings isn't around, you may not get much progress in this achievement at times, but every little bit adds up in the long run. Ideally, you should try tanking Sentry Guns under the control of a Wrangler, since the Engineer cannot repair his Sentry Gun in the meantime.

| Obtain-level = Easy

| obtain-level = Easy
| Obtain-text = Each piece of building debris will give you 10 or 15 metal apiece, depending on the structure that was destroyed. Whenever an enemy destroys your buildings, simply remember to rebuild it using the metal from your buildings rather than running around for ammo packs, and if on the offense, pick up the metal from the enemy Engineers' buildings to resupply your own. Note that only metal added to your metal amount for the Engineer will actually be counted for the achievement, and you cannot pick up additional metal if you already have 200. The fastest way to grind this is to construct a building near a Resupply Cabinet, destroy it, pick up the metal, go back to the Resupply Cabinet, and repeat.

| Obtain-text = Shoot at whatever a friendly Engineer's Sentry Gun is shooting at, and you will generally get the assist unless the target was on fire, or the Engineer was being healed by a Medic.  This is easier if the Engineer is using the Wrangler, as there will be a team colored laser pointing at the target. This also works the other way, counting if you get a kill with a Sentry Gun and are assisted by another Engineer. A fast way to get this achievement is to build your Sentry Gun near a friendly Engineer's, so that both will shoot at and hopefully kill the same target.

| Obtain-text = You need to use the Frontier Justice's [[Kabong!|taunt]] in order to get this achievement.  The killing blow is somewhat slow compared to most taunt attacks, but is relatively quiet because the only noise made beforehand is a low strum of the guitar.  Your best bet is to catch an inattentive player (such as a scoped-in Sniper) with it.  Be wary of missing, though, as the guitar smash itself makes a very loud and distinct noise. Try not to linger around the area if you fail, as the guitar pieces laying around after the taunt can give you away.

If an enemy finds and attacks you before the gun is fully ready, you can attempt to repair it as it unpacks, though you should try to unpack the Sentry on an elevated vantage point to deny the enemy immediate access to it.

| Obtain-text = You will probably need to work with the Heavy on this achievement, as the Dispenser's healing radius is fairly small, limiting the Heavy to a certain area, and generally making him an easy target.  Keep an eye out for any Spies looking to make an easy Backstab, and try to cover your Heavy's position with a Sentry Gun to discourage this.  Having your Dispenser at Level 3 will help the Heavy immensely as the healing rate otherwise is not enough to keep him healthy in the middle of a firefight. The [[Dalokohs Bar]] can be useful for the Heavy to equip, granting himself fifty extra HP. Note also that the Heavy has a related achievement called "Factory Worker"; while not a direct counterpart (as it requires a Heavy to gain 20 lifetime kills while being healed by a Dispenser), it may be easier to obtain if the Heavy is looking for that particular achievement. This is significantly easier to accomplish while on the defense, as the Heavy will not need to range out to attack enemies, and can simply wait for them to come to him.

Guarding chokepoints with your Wrangler can help, but make sure to keep your laser out of sight.

| Obtain-text = Try to kill the Spy before you take out the Sappers to avoid being backstabbed as you work; once the Spy is out of the picture, then focus on removing any Sappers around.  The timer starts when either the Spy or any Sappers are killed, so you'll have to work fast starting then.  If you kill the Spy first, removing two Sappers will take about 4 seconds if you are already at your Buildings, which is more lenient than removing 2 Sappers, and trying to kill the Spy in 6 seconds. Alternatively, you can get this achievement easily if you manage to un-sap a Sentry Gun while the Spy is undisguised (such as just after killing someone else), instantly killing him and leaving you free to save the second building, if you hadn't already. Furthermore, if the Spy has sapped an active Teleporter, you simply need to remove the Electro Sapper from one end and it will automatically remove the second from the other end, saving you a bit of time there, though beware if he tries to [[telefrag]] you and stand off of your Exit.

Note, you can still get this achievement if the player who destroyed your Sentry Gun dies, you just need to get a kill on that player using the Revenge Crits you got from your Sentry Gun, even after he respawns.

Revision as of 16:42, 2 October 2010

Battle Rustler
Battle Rustler
Teleport 100 team members into battle.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Always remember to build a Teleporter Entrance at the beginning of a round, and upgrade it to its highest level. Remember that the more useful the Exit is to the team, the more frequently it will be used. If on offense, be sure to move your Exit up as your team progresses, to minimize the down-time on your Teleporter.


Best Little Slaughterhouse in Texas
Best Little Slaughterhouse in Texas
Rack up 5000 kills with your Sentry Guns.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: This is a grind achievement, albeit a fairly long one. The best way to get this is to place regular Sentry Guns in good locations, either in easily defensible positions on defense, or by taking players by surprise on offense. However, also remember that Combat Mini-Sentries deploy in less than two seconds, and if used correctly can net you surprise kills.


Breaking Morant
Breaking Morant
Kill 10 Snipers with a sentry gun under the control of your Wrangler.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: If you are doing this at long range, keep on the move so you don't take a bullet and/or arrow to the face while attempting this. You can also try using the Gunslinger and placing a Mini-Sentry close to an inattentive Sniper if you manage to get the drop on him, and using the Wrangler to quickly take care of him at close range. Keep an eye on any Snipers looking through their scope or drawing their Huntsman, as even without a headshot, a charged body shot will still kill you in one hit if you are not overhealed.


Building Block
Building Block
Have a sentry shielded by the Wrangler absorb 500 damage without being destroyed.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: It will help a lot to have a second Engineer to keep your Sentry Gun in good shape while you keep the shield and firepower up in the meantime. Note that a level 2 Sentry Gun has 540 health with the Wrangler, while a level 3 has 648. Also try to take advantage of the fact that most enemy attacks will come in waves, and repair your gun during the downtime if there aren't any other Engineers around.


Built to Last
Built to Last
Help a single building tank over 2000 damage without being destroyed.
Difficulty: Hard
How to obtain: Your Sentry Gun is usually the best building to choose for this, as it can shoot back at any enemies within range trying to destroy it, but this achievement can be done on any building, even one that is not your own. Still, even at level 3 Sentry Guns have a hard time lasting that long unless they are under the control of a Wrangler; after a while enemy players will either try to Sap it, or send an ÜberCharge after it. If things are looking bad, you can pick your structure up in order to prevent it from taking damage, but that will expose you to fire instead. Be cautious with that tactic as if you are killed while hauling a structure, the structure is lost as well. A good place to try for this achievement is on a CTF map such as 2Fort, where the flow of attackers is often manageable and the round lasts long enough for you to get this achievement. If you are very conservative, you can even build near a spawn point and retreat there carrying your target structure during periods of extreme danger.


Circle the Wagons
Circle the Wagons
Repair 50,000 damage to friendly buildings constructed by other players.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: A grind achievement, this does not need to be done in a single life. Just keep an eye on the health levels of friendly Engineers' buildings as well as your own, and assist them in defense whenever possible. Unless the Engineer who built the buildings isn't around, you may not get much progress in this achievement at times, but every little bit adds up in the long run. Ideally, you should try tanking Sentry Guns under the control of a Wrangler, since the Engineer cannot repair his Sentry Gun in the meantime.


Death Metal
Death Metal
Pick up 10,000 waste metal from pieces of destroyed buildings.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Each piece of building debris will give you 10 or 15 metal apiece, depending on the structure that was destroyed. Whenever an enemy destroys your buildings, simply remember to rebuild it using the metal from your buildings rather than running around for ammo packs, and if on the offense, pick up the metal from the enemy Engineers' buildings to resupply your own. Note that only metal added to your metal amount for the Engineer will actually be counted for the achievement, and you cannot pick up additional metal if you already have 200. The fastest way to grind this is to construct a building near a Resupply Cabinet, destroy it, pick up the metal, go back to the Resupply Cabinet, and repeat.


Deputized
Deputized
Get 10 assists with another Engineer where a sentry gun was involved in the kill.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: Shoot at whatever a friendly Engineer's Sentry Gun is shooting at, and you will generally get the assist unless the target was on fire, or the Engineer was being healed by a Medic. This is easier if the Engineer is using the Wrangler, as there will be a team colored laser pointing at the target. This also works the other way, counting if you get a kill with a Sentry Gun and are assisted by another Engineer. A fast way to get this achievement is to build your Sentry Gun near a friendly Engineer's, so that both will shoot at and hopefully kill the same target.


Doc Holiday
Doc Holiday
Have a dispenser heal three teammates at the same time.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: This should happen quite quickly if you deploy a Dispenser on the front lines. Remember to place the Dispenser in an easy-to-access location, and to upgrade it to level 3 to ensure maximum healing.


Doc, Stock, and Barrel
Doc, Stock, and Barrel
Repair a sentry gun under fire while being healed by a Medic.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: This Achievement coincides with the Medic Achievement "Midwife Crisis", so that may increase your chances of getting this. Otherwise, it just comes down to hoping a Medic is around to heal you at the right time. You can try calling for a Medic when you think you might be able to get it, to get a Medic to quickly boost your health. Attack/defend maps are a good place to find Medics willing to heal you, particularly on defense.


Drugstore Cowboy
Drugstore Cowboy
Have dispensers you created dispense a combined amount of 100,000 health over your career.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: As with "Doc Holiday," place Dispensers close to the front lines and upgrade them to the highest level. Be wary of placing Dispensers too close to health kits, as teammates may choose to pick the kit up instead as it is quicker. Remember to move your Dispenser up as your team moves forward.


Fistful of Sappers
Fistful of Sappers
Destroy 25 sappers on buildings built by other team members.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: Keep an eye on friendly Engineer structures, especially if they are not near their buildings. If you see a friend being harassed by an enemy Spy, give him a hand, though he may remove the Sappers before you have a chance to help. Try to let the other Engineer deal with the Spy while you save his buildings, but be careful that the Spy does not backstab you.


Frontier Justice
Frontier Justice
Have your sentry kill the enemy that just killed you within 10 seconds.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: This one mostly comes down to luck, but you can try luring an enemy into your Sentry Gun by running ahead and getting killed, hoping they turn the corner right into your Sentry Gun. You may also get this incidentally if a Spy attempts the stab-and-sap technique on you, but fails to sap your Sentry Gun in time.


Get Along!
Get Along!
Manage to get to, and then remove, a sapper placed on your building while you were several meters away.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Place a decoy Teleporter a fair distance away if you are not using your Teleporters for anything else. Many Spies can't resist and will place an Electro Sapper on your building, giving himself away. Then simply run to the building and knock off the Electro Sapper, but beware as the Spy might also be nearby hoping to get rid of you.


Honky Tonk Man
Honky Tonk Man
Smash an enemy player's head in with your guitar.
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
How to obtain: You need to use the Frontier Justice's taunt in order to get this achievement. The killing blow is somewhat slow compared to most taunt attacks, but is relatively quiet because the only noise made beforehand is a low strum of the guitar. Your best bet is to catch an inattentive player (such as a scoped-in Sniper) with it. Be wary of missing, though, as the guitar smash itself makes a very loud and distinct noise. Try not to linger around the area if you fail, as the guitar pieces laying around after the taunt can give you away.


How the Pests Was Gunned
How the Pests Was Gunned
Destroy 50 enemy stickybombs lying in range of friendly buildings.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: This achievement will count all Sticky Bombs destroyed near any friendly Engineer's buildings, not just your own. Keep in mind you probably won't have much time to shoot the Sticky Bombs, unless the Demoman is trying to snipe your Sentry Gun outside of its range with charged Stickies. The Pistol is ideal for this thanks to its high fire rate, good magazine capacity, and decent reload time, but the Shotgun and Frontier Justice will also suffice.


If You Build It, They Will Die
If You Build It, They Will Die
Haul a level 3 sentry gun into a position that achieves a kill shortly after being redeployed.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Build a level 3 Sentry Gun, and then haul it to a suitable place near the action. Take into account it will take a considerable amount of time to rebuild because it has to go through not only the rebuilding animation, but also the two upgrade animations to get back to level 3. If an enemy finds and attacks you before the gun is fully ready, you can attempt to repair it as it unpacks, though you should try to unpack the Sentry on an elevated vantage point to deny the enemy immediate access to it.


Land Grab
Land Grab
Help a teammate construct a building.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: At the beginning of a round, follow any Engineer who is preparing to place a building, and when he places it, help construct it by hitting it with your Wrench or the Gunslinger. You only need to hit the building once for the achievement to trigger. Some Engineers will place Teleporters before leaving their spawn in a setup phase, so you can help construct those if you are having trouble with this achievement.


No Man's Land
No Man's Land
Use a sentry gun to kill 25 enemy players that are capturing a point.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: Make sure to place your Sentry Gun in an area where it's hard for the enemy to destroy it while they're capturing the point. Remember, kill assists do not count, so this will take longer if you have allies that actively defend the point. While not advised, placing your Sentry Gun in a position such that it can only shoot at enemies on the point (and not while they are moving towards it) can help get this achievement faster.


(Not So) Lonely Are the Brave
(Not So) Lonely Are the Brave
Keep a Heavy healed with your dispenser while he gains five kills.
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
How to obtain: You will probably need to work with the Heavy on this achievement, as the Dispenser's healing radius is fairly small, limiting the Heavy to a certain area, and generally making him an easy target. Keep an eye out for any Spies looking to make an easy Backstab, and try to cover your Heavy's position with a Sentry Gun to discourage this. Having your Dispenser at Level 3 will help the Heavy immensely as the healing rate otherwise is not enough to keep him healthy in the middle of a firefight. The Dalokohs Bar can be useful for the Heavy to equip, granting himself fifty extra HP. Note also that the Heavy has a related achievement called "Factory Worker"; while not a direct counterpart (as it requires a Heavy to gain 20 lifetime kills while being healed by a Dispenser), it may be easier to obtain if the Heavy is looking for that particular achievement. This is significantly easier to accomplish while on the defense, as the Heavy will not need to range out to attack enemies, and can simply wait for them to come to him.


Patent Protection
Patent Protection
Destroy an enemy Engineer's sentry gun with a sentry under control of your Wrangler.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: The Wrangler allows your Sentry Gun to shoot at an enemy Sentry from outside of its range, unless the enemy Engineer is using the Wrangler as well. Unless your Sentry Gun is Level 3, try to make sure the enemy Engineer is not near his Sentry Gun, or kill him before attempting, as he will be able to repair any damage done to his Sentry Gun otherwise. Note: destroying a Combat Mini-sentry does not count towards this achievement.


Pownd on the Range
Pownd on the Range
Kill 10 enemies outside the normal sentry gun range using the Wrangler.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Try to deploy your Sentry in an easily defensible position that overlooks a wide-open area. Gravel Pit is a great map for this, as it has a lot of open areas, especially at points A and C. Other than an open area, you'll have to make sure you aim well and, if using a level 3 Sentry Gun, anticipating movement and leading the rockets will also help. Guarding chokepoints with your Wrangler can help, but make sure to keep your laser out of sight.


Quick Draw
Quick Draw
Kill a Spy and two sappers within 10 seconds.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: Try to kill the Spy before you take out the Sappers to avoid being backstabbed as you work; once the Spy is out of the picture, then focus on removing any Sappers around. The timer starts when either the Spy or any Sappers are killed, so you'll have to work fast starting then. If you kill the Spy first, removing two Sappers will take about 4 seconds if you are already at your Buildings, which is more lenient than removing 2 Sappers, and trying to kill the Spy in 6 seconds. Alternatively, you can get this achievement easily if you manage to un-sap a Sentry Gun while the Spy is undisguised (such as just after killing someone else), instantly killing him and leaving you free to save the second building, if you hadn't already. Furthermore, if the Spy has sapped an active Teleporter, you simply need to remove the Electro Sapper from one end and it will automatically remove the second from the other end, saving you a bit of time there, though beware if he tries to telefrag you and stand off of your Exit.


Revengineering
Revengineering
Use a revenge crit to kill the enemy player that destroyed your sentry gun.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: This depends on the class of the player who killed your Sentry Gun, as healthier classes will need more Revenge Crits stocked up in order to take down. If there is a Spy who recently sapped your Sentry Gun, you can sacrifice your Sentry Gun and use any Revenge Crits you receive from it to kill the Spy if you can keep an eye on him until then. Just beware of Spies using the Dead Ringer, as they will almost always survive long enough to escape. Note, you can still get this achievement if the player who destroyed your Sentry Gun dies, you just need to get a kill on that player using the Revenge Crits you got from your Sentry Gun, even after he respawns.


Rio Grind
Rio Grind
Perform 50 repairs and/or reloads on a Sentry gun being Wrangled by another Engineer.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Simply keep an eye out for any Sentry Guns under the control of a Wrangler, and repair and reload them as necessary. Wrangled Sentries cannot be repaired or resupplied by the Engineer who owns it without switching to repair it himself, shutting it down shortly, so Wrangler-using Engineers will appreciate help. If there are any Wrangled guns in the thick of battle, stick nearby to quickly rack up points. Each whack that adds to the Sentry Gun's health and/or ammo gives you a point, so constantly tanking a Wrangled Sentry Gun will quickly get you a large number of points.


Search Engine
Search Engine
Kill 3 cloaked Spies with a sentry gun under control of your Wrangler.
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
How to obtain: Keep a sharp eye out of any shimmering and open fire if you think there is a cloaked Spy somewhere. If a Spy is on fire, bleeding, or coated with Jarate but is still cloaked, killing them will be a lot easier and should still count towards this. Also, simply use the Wrangler for randomly sweeping areas nearby as Spy-check and sooner or later you'll get lucky. The stronger your Sentry Gun, the easier it will be to actually kill the Spy.


Silent Pardner
Silent Pardner
Upgrade 50 buildings built by other team members.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: When an Engineer is building a new structure, help upgrade if you have the metal to spare, and keep an eye out for any buildings that are not fully upgraded in general. Teleporter Entrances near the spawn are easy targets because most Engineers will focus on building their forward bases first before upgrading their Teleporters. You will only get a point for this achievement if you land the hit that upgrades the building, so try not to upgrade a building being worked on by another Engineer, or try to get the last hit in.


Six-String Stinger
Six-String Stinger
Provide an enemy player with a freeze cam of your guitar playing skills.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: Taunt with the Frontier Justice after killing an enemy. You do not need to actually kill anyone with the taunt to get this achievement, simply have the guitar appear in the freeze cam shot.


Texas Ranger
Texas Ranger
Haul buildings 1 km over your career.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Just pick up any building, and run around with it until the achievement triggers. This will be a little slow due to the Engineer's reduced speed when hauling a building. The easiest way to accomplish this achievement is to construct a building near spawn, and then haul it to the front lines. Also remember that when playing offense, you can move your buildings forward to continue supporting your team.


Texas Two-Step
Texas Two-Step
Use your shotgun to finish off an enemy recently damaged by your sentry gun.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Keep on eye on what targets your Sentry Gun is shooting at currently, and focus on that target. You can also use the Wrangler to choose your targets, and switch to the Shotgun after damaging the player. Be aware that if your Sentry Gun is level 2 or 3, it may kill them faster than you can shoot them down with your Shotgun. Using the Frontier Justice's revenge Crits is also a good way to ensure the kill.


The Extinguished Gentleman
The Extinguished Gentleman
Have dispensers you built extinguish 20 burning players.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: Unless there is a Medic or Health Kits nearby, burning players will probably fall back to your Dispenser if they see it or know where it is. Put your Dispenser near the front lines so that teammates can easily retreat to put themselves out, as most players will make healing a priority if they are on fire.


The Wrench Connection
The Wrench Connection
Kill a disguised spy with your Wrench.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Disguised Spies will always be trying to sap your buildings, and the Wrench will kill any Spy with one Critical hit. Just keep an eye out for suspicious teammates and check your back repeatedly. The Gunslinger does not count towards this achievement, though the Wrench will help more in any case due to its ability to randomly Crit.


Trade Secrets
Trade Secrets
Kill 20 players carrying the intelligence.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Instead of placing your Sentry Gun directly in the line of sight of the Intelligence, place it (or redeploy it) along common escape routes. Common routes include the spiral staircase in 2Fort, or the path that leads to the center of Turbine, opposite of the stairs that lead to the Spawn area. Other than that, you can also use your normal weapons to kill the players, but most classes will either outrun you or overpower you. Redeploying a building can help you get the drop on the enemy, as most of the time they will not expect a Sentry Gun to suddenly appear somewhere that was clear when they passed by on their way to grab the Intelligence.


Uncivil Engineer
Uncivil Engineer
Provide an enemy player with a freeze cam of you and the sentry that just killed them.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: Simply stand near and tank your Sentry Gun, and if it kills someone, their freeze cam will have both you and the Sentry Gun in it. Remember that the freeze camera angle will point in a direct line from the enemy to your Sentry, so try to stand within that line to ensure that you appear in the freeze cam shot.


Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Kill 3 enemies with revenge crits without dying.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Equip the Frontier Justice and stay near your Sentry Gun to build up a reasonable amount of Crits, then destroy your Sentry Gun and go to town when you think you have enough. Try to ambush classes, as you have low health but your Shotgun will do a lot of damage if you hit them at close range with a solid portion of a single shot. Just remember to try to fall back to your team if it starts looking bad, and don't bite off more than you can chew. Try to move around with your Pistol or Wrench equipped and switch to the Frontier Justice once you sight an enemy, as the glowing Critical effect on your weapon will instantly give you away.
