COV GREGS Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 How do kill stranded or heroes with the wild ticker? Last one I need for the achievement. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromav Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 On wave 1 you should be able to down a stranded if they're on their own, if not then get someone else to down one for you to attack, takes 1 or 2 hits once they're down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VRattleHead Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 i'm having the same problem. as soon as i get close i get killed right away and if i down a guy with a different beast character, then by the time i respawn as wild ticker - one of their buddies revived them. it's really driving me nuts. any additional advice would be appreciated. thx.

Play with 1 other person, have them distract the person while you come up behind. Wold also be easier if you have only 1 of them left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thugsley Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I get quite a few wild ticker kills. Best way ive found is to go for the ones on troikas/turrets and nibble at their legs while they shoot other things. Also not sure if its on purpose but up close, the turrets seem to shoot over the wild tickers rather than at them. So as i said, go for the turrets the heroes are mounted on. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromav Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Only other advice I can think of is just play a lot of games as wild ticker and go for a stranded as soon as one of your team mates down them. Should be easy enough to boost this with someone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenolith666 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 The Wild Ticker doesn't do much damage on its own, the best way to get a kill with it is to have someone else down a stranded and then kill him with the wild ticker. That's how I did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecretPeter Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 its kinda cheating but just set up a private lobby and activate another controller...with he second one take all the guys out and leave the last one waiting to be revived...then with your main controller use a wild ticker to take them down!! BINGO achievement unlocked!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrowmaster Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 If any of the humans have a boomsheild they always seem more interested in pointing it at the bigger locust and ignore wild tickers or wreches attacking them from behind.

welsh dragon888 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 like somebody else said, just go for any human on a turret/troika on casual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowutski Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 You could also eat a tagged grenade and blow yourself up like a normal ticker. I just played and got it without trying with a bunch of friends, this was on insane as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinnizle Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 A trick I just tried that worked is to play on Casual, spawn as a Savage Drone, down a human, and stay close to him. By the time the other humans down and kill you (it takes forever on Casual difficulty), the downed human will almost have bled out. Now spawn as a Wild Ticker, and if you're lucky, the human will bleed out after you've spawned, and even though you downed it in your other life as a Savage Drone, you will get the credit for a Wild Ticker kill. You do need a bit of luck to make this work, but it only took me a handful of minutes using this method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metabolic XBA Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 just load up a private match on casual and play the checkout map. Wave 1 only has 5 stranded and they are spread out and ridiculously easy to sneak up on and just bite em a couple times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I downed everyone and was so low on health I just danced around on spikes til I died and respawned and got 5 wild ticker kills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Big_D__ Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 It's pretty straightforward to get if you hop in a Standard online game; just let others charge in first and get the attention of the humans, then whack away at them. Wild Ticker melee swing does half damage to units, so it takes 4 attacks to down and another 2 to kill (on Normal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infernoterrorize Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Wild ticker is super easy. Cant believe some people find it hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JORDAN K 95 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 thanks for the advice, this is the last one i need for the achivement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Sawed 0ff Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Step 1: Turn two controllers on and log in Step 2: Go to Beast Mode on casual Step 3: Use the account you don't care to get the achievement at the moment and eliminate 4 of the stranded and shoot the fifth where he/she needs to be revived Step 4: Get the controller that is logged in the profile with the achievement you want select wild ticker go up to the stranded person that is crawling and hit him/her twice it wont notify you saying you unlocked it but it will b the first one in your achievements.

Calv1n Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 You should be able to just kill a downed stranded if an ally downs them for you. Because as far as i know, it is almost impossible to eat a grenade, because the AI never throw grenades. They just plant them inside of their holdout location. What Idiots.
