How to unlock the Contract Thriller achievement in Agents of Mayhem - Definitive Guide
UPDATE: As of October 2021, the servers for Agents Of Mayhem have been shut down permanently, making this achievement impossible to obtain and thusly making this solution obsolete. Apologies for not updating this earlier.
I found a very helpful guide to Connected Contracts on the Steam forums.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=11370...
anything you need to know about what the requirements precisely are, and what missions you can jump into to help farm the kills/materials needed are all there.
Also, contrary to the prior guide, you do NOT need to be present in the game at the exact moment the contract is completed. You can turn off your Xbox without worry, and if the requirements were met while you were asleep or out, you will get credit for it. You MUST contribute to the contract in order to get credit. But to be frank, if you really want this achievement, you're probably going to end up doing everything your damn self anyway, since most people join a contract and do jack fuck-all shit to help out.
some quick tips I've learned to help farm requirements:
Blitztrooper/Helltrooper Commanders: you can farm these during Oni's introductory mission. At the last part where you have to destroy the three crates, one of each of these enemies appears after you destroy the first crate and take out several normal enemies. After you kill both, you can reload the checkpoint and repeat.
Here's an alternate place to grind Blitztrooper kills, thanks to Karachi King:
"For the blitztroopers, I found that while retaking an outpost, the alert level seems capped at four. So if you just kill enemies instead of destroying equipment, eventually it just spawns infinite blitztroopers (sometimes 4-5 at a time)."
Swarmtrooper Commander: go to mission replay and do Press X To Object. After you kill some enemies, your character will ask Friday to hurry up with taking down the shield. This second set of enemies will spawn a Swarmtrooper Commander. You can kill it and reload the checkpoint.
HOWEVER, if you get the contract for killing 25 of each Commanders AND the contract for killing Shocktroopers/Tanktroopers in the same day, it would behoove you to kill the Swarmtrooper Commander, and keep going, because a Shocktrooper and a Tank Trooper will appear shortly after. 2 birds with 1 stone.
Shocktroopers/Tank Troopers: again, Press X To Object. These two appear shortly after you kill the Swarmtrooper Commander and a few smaller enemies. You can reload the checkpoint and farm them.
Pride Captains/Legion Level Wipe: set the difficulty to 1, and find a vehicle to steal for Quartermile on the map. Jump in the car, and immediately hop out. Your threat level will be at 2 and a half bars right off the bat, so all you need to do is just keep killing enemies until your threat meter is completely full. Kill the Pride Captain, and this will wipe your threat level. Jump back in the vehicle. Rinse and repeat.
BoomBots: load up mission replay and do the mission All The Rave. When you get to the part where you have to inspect Gaunt's cars, the first one will explode, then you'll have to inspect the second car, and shortly afterwards a bunch of enemies will show up. You can get about 6-8 BoomBot kills in this section. Reload checkpoint until you have them.
Legion Turrets: load up mission replay and do the mission All You Can Eat. After you get past the part where you avoid the space laser beams, you will enter a lair. In the very first room where you have to destroy the conduits, you will find 2-4 turrets to destroy (its a bit of RNG, sometimes you get 2, sometimes you get 4). You will have to step on a floor pad to get some of them to come up. Just press Y to scan the area and you will see them outlined. Destroy the turrets, reload checkpoint.
Swarmtrooper/Helltrooper/Blitztrooper Kills - for the contract where you have to kill 300 of each of these enemies, I recommend the mission All The Rave for the Helltrooper/Blitztrooper kills. In the final section where you have to destroy 3 transmitters, just destroy 2 of them and leave one of them up. You will get an infinite spawn of Blitz/Helltroopers, but they only appear 2 at a time. If you just need to farm Blitztroopers to complete the contract, this is the best place to do it, since Helltroopers are extremely common anyway.
For Swarmtroopers, I recommend either starting a fight in the open world, or going to the mission Press X To Object. After the shield comes up and you kill the first handful of enemies, there will be about 7-8 Swarmtroopers that spawn in....3-4 with the Commander, and another handful when the Tanktrooper shows up during the second attack. Reload checkpoint and repeat. If you just t a few more kills to complete this section of the contract, this is a good spot to do it.
EDIT: here's an even better method to farm Swarmtroopers. Thanks to AshesToAshes97 for the tip!
"I've found a great place to farm the Swarmtrooper kills and you can kill around 50+ in each run though. Simply load up Scheherazade's personal mission entitled 'Worlds Within Worlds' and play the mission up to the point of where you have to take an elevator up to the top of a mini construction site. Then start the killing! You'll know when you've killed them all as they will stop spawning and when this happens, reload the checkpoint and start again until you have the number of kills you need. This is also a great place to do some XP farming for Scheherazade as well, if you still need to get her to level 20."

Is this one even obtainable? I've been playing the game slowly mission wise for the sole purpose of making sure I get this one by taking each contract offered every day. After 50+hrs in the game, all characters at level 40 and a few missions away from actually beating the game I have yet to see this one pop.. I know for a fact I am that person completing 25-75% if the 3 contracts offered daily on my own, while at least 1 of them finishes each day.. By now I should be at around 20 completed successfully.. In fact yesterday (as of this reply) we managed all 3 in 1 day.
I get the +1 total showing in total completed contracts as well as the 15000$ and 1 core added to my inventory, but still no achievement. Eventually it's going to get to the point my game will be 100% complete and I'll have to be the jerk that hops in kills 1 guy and leaves, unless it pops soon.
I'm starting to think you actually need to be present when its completed so you physically see the cash and core be added to your inventory for it to count properly... If it adds while offline, maybe it's not actually causing the achievement to +1.
*June 23 finally popped after starting my own and hosting them public and being in game when completing. The tracker is definitely off as I did about 30-35 total and only after starting them on my own and being present in game when the rewards show on the right did the achievement eventually unlock.

UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE
You need to complete 15 online contracts, there are only 3 contracts every day so this will take at least 5 days to get the trophy.
The tasks are grindy and you only have 24 hours to complete them, you will likely not be able to complete them alone but you can join a group of 6 friends/random people and all their progress will be counted toward the task. You will be required to kill a certain amount/type of enemies, open chests, complete lairs in the global conflict etc. but the enemies in the VR room do not count for the contracts.
When a contract is completed and if you're online, you will have a notification on your screen. If it's completed while you're offline, you will not receive any notification when you're back in the game but the contract will be gone in your missions menu, it means it's been completed and it should count. However, if a message saying "the expired contracts have been deleted from your list" appear, it means the timer was over and the contract wasn't completed.
You can't track how many online contracts you've done, you can only see how many contracts (both offline and online) you've completed in the Mayhem Database in the Ark.
There is no coop mode, you just join them in the contract but you can't play with them.
Note that this trophy may require to complete more than 15 contracts, some players have reported getting the trophy after 18, 20 or more contracts completed, so keep playing until you get the trophy. We don't know yet if you have to create the contracts or if joining them is fine, if you have to be online or not, if you need to actually work on the contract or if you can be carried by the other people... Some players have got the trophy while joining other contracts and were not online when the contracts were completed so it shouldn't matter.
Here are some tips if you're looking for a certain type of enemies:
Elite enemies: These are the enemies with "commander" in their name. They spam randomly while in Seoul and they are pretty rare, especially the Elite Swarmtroopers. The best solution would be to replay missions/lairs and when you see one, kill him and restart the checkpoint to farm the kills.
Gremlin Tech: Buy a lot of Seoul Defenses and simply spam them.
Special Kills: Take Oni and play on difficulty 0, you will one shot almost every enemy and his special ability instantly reloads with one shots.
Tanktroopers/Bufftroopers, etc: They can spawn in the city when your Alert level is at 4 or 5, or inside lairs when you have to kill a Leader, kill them and the leader and restart the checkpoint.
Golems, Ice Barrage, Fracking: If they don't appear on the map, take over Outposts and Relic's trading companies and they should appear.
Legion Alerts/Pride Captains: You will need to kill a Pride Captain to clear the Alert level, kill civilians/explode vehicles in Seoul until your first bar of Alert level is filled up, then kill Legion until the captain appear. Rince and repeat, you just need to wait about a minute between 2 alerts.
Turrets: Replay Operation: Tecnologia, there is a Turret near the beginning of the lair, destroy it and restart the checkpoint to farm it.
Boom bots: Replay Operation: Star Power: All the Rave until you reach the garage and interact with 2 cars. There will be 8-9 Boom bots, kill them and restart the checkpoint.

The trophy in the game is tedious and it is better to do it immediately during the passage.
If it’s the last one you have left, like me, then here are a couple of tips for boosting:
All global contracts are repeated.
If you need:
Turrets - they can be found on the mission Buffet . When you reach the room with the turrets, simply destroy all the turrets and load the checkpoint.
Boombots - mission This whole rave . Come to the garage and kill only boombots, then load the checkpoint.
Punishers, Wasp commanders and Tanktrooper - mission Press x to object . During the ambush, kill everyone and then load the checkpoint.
For everything else
Money, trophy scrap, regular mobs, killings under certain conditions - Video guide on how to abuse mob spawning (in order not to bother with abilities and characters, set the difficulty level to low)
It’s better to take half-finished contracts and finish them yourself because most people will not fulfill these contracts for you. Contracts for capturing areas or for global conflict are a waste of time.

Pay attention to this trophy from the very beginning of the passage.
The point is this. In the “contracts” tab at the very top, every day 3 contracts appear like “kill 300 bodies of the same type,” etc.
So these contracts can be made public, or connected to a contract that is already being executed, which will minimize time costs with an ideal outcome (if at least someone else besides you fulfills the terms of the contract). Complete 15 and the trophy is yours.
