Got a kill with the skid loader

1.4%

How to unlock the Like a Boss achievement in Battlefield 3 - Definitive Guide

First of all you have to get the kill with it while in the driver seat. Also if it doesnt unlock your first time try again as that has made it unlock for others. The first video is the way i recommend you try first, the second is just someone running over another person in it.

The skid loader is on wake island. As the description says you can do it by running someone over with it or you could do it this way which may be a little less frustrating. First of (The game mode in the video is set to conquest assault so if some of you are having difficulties getting it try it in that game mode, i got mine in normal conquest though )get in the skid loader and go plant some AT mines under an unocupied vehicle. Now hop back in your skid loader and try not to die, if your lucky an enemy will hop in the vehicle and will explode. This will count as a skid loader kill.

Good luck =)

Great tip! I had put down some AT mines at capture point 'A' and then later hopped in the skid loader and waited. It wasn't long before someone ran over them in a buggy. Achievement unlocked! That made it easy! Thanks!

Nice find. I'm going to delete my solution due to the downs it's been hit with, (your solution is clearly better if people are struggling with the roadkill.)

I'll be sure to upvote this.

Awesome tip. I will defo try this one once I get a turn on Wake Island. The negative votes are probably from those gamers who probably call your tip a 'CHEAT'..........they spoil all our fun! :)

Ok i will tell you why your getting negative feed back, its because that solution only works on ps3 i laid mines down all over the place, so as im waiting in the skid loader i got a total of three kills and no achievement because it gave me mine kills instead off off the loader kills you have to run someone over on xbox 360 for it to count as a skid loader kill but note i still gave you good feed back for at showing me where its at thanks, you shood remove that video with the with the mines to avoid bad feed back

I've touched 10 people with the skid loader and it doesn't go fast enough for you to run them over at full health. This is the most BS achievement in the game.

Ah wait there, I noticed the second video uses "Conquest Assault". I'll try that game type tonight and see if I have more luck. It might be worth editing the solution.

unfortunately, the mine trick did not work for me. i tried multiple times and got at least 3 mine kills while sitting in the driver's seat of the skid loader, but i did not get achievement. but i kept at it and managed to see an enemy taking cover behind the skid loader as i approached. you can guess what happened to that loser. :)

Yes it's conquest assault, not conquest, might help if you are more specific. Still found this to be a helpful solution though so thumbs up from me!

I actually had no luck with the mines and ended up laying a claymore in the flag area, my achievement popped when I got a kill with the claymore mine.

I placed mines near base C on conquest assault, jumped into the skid loader and drove far away. After 2 minutes I got my kill. I was so relieved in getting this quickly on that match because in the previous match there was this invincible helicopter that was raining hell on us and made it impossible to plant some mines and drive away in one piece!

Yeah the best way to do this is just run someone over, I waited till we started to lose a flag on a conquest match. I did 3 kills but got it on my first one, the other two were for pure fun.

Was having a problem with running people over with the skid loader.. had pushed two people around with it

So the way I unlocked it was to get a friend to laser designate the enemies attack helicopter, I then fired a Javelin at them & jumped in the skid loader... counted as a double kill with the skid loader :-)

I've had at least 4 definite AT mine kills while in the drivers seat and no chievo. I think it's either been patched with Update 6 or it's buggy and only works for some.

Plus I must have been blown up in these feckin' loaders over 30 times now, I hate luck based chievo's, god damn!

Here is my Videoguide. The Loader are Located on Wake Island in near the "B" Spawn.

Choose RU Side and spawn direclty at B, then get in the Loader and Hope that an Enemy in near is and simply overdrive this.

Question? Ask me in the Comments.

Use an Engineer class and plant some Anti tank Mines. Go ride the Skidloader and hide while waiting for someone to get killed by your AT mines. When someone gets killed you will unlock this. The main objective is you must register a kill while being the driver. Maybe running someone over or hitting a tank with RPG and then go in the skidloader and hope the enemy tank driver gets killed while inside the burning tank.

So far AT mines is the easiest one to do rather than running someone over. There is a Jeep opposite the skid loader and thats a good place to plant some AT mines.
You need to be the driver and not killing while hitching at the back or front.

THEE!!!! BEST WAY AND EASY WAY TO THIS CHEEV. I read this post, tried it 2min later and presto on the first try. I set some at mines got in the loader drove to some place I was able to hide. 5min later a victim appeared. Pop goes the achievement. Do as this post says. And wait for some Moron to fall in the trap

I tried the AT mines trick several times, but never could get the timing down. So what I did was this. I used the Engineer class with the Explosives specialization, and equipped mines and the SAM launcher. I then placed a bunch of mines around likely choke points and near the jeeps. I then drove the skid loader past the hangers and down to the beach (on the longer arm side of the island). I then jumped out and equipped the SAM, jumping back in every minute or so to keep the loader from auto destroying. I just waited until a plane or chopper came close enough to lock-on, and fired then jumped back into the loader. The 2nd time I used this technique I got a kill with my 2nd SAM (the Apache had already been damaged by a F35). Using this techinique will amplify your chances since you still have the mines out.

you could always jump in the back and it won't self destruct.

the idea with the sam is great, but i would recommend not to leave your skid loader until you acutally see a target. it maybe a bit frustrating, if you wait outside for an air vehicle and in the meantime, someone hits your mines = no achievement ;)

Yeah that is a good point. I was about maybe 60% out, 40% in, but spending more time in will amplify your chances...

I attempted this, fired the SAM and got immediately back in the Skid loader, it credited the kill to the SAM. I'm not sure if this has been patched or something but it doesn't work.

Best thing to do is to try to get behind someone or get someone who is alone, hang around the airfield, to get some kills but definitely try to avoid tanks.

The skid loader is found on wake island, the game mode you need is conquest assault. It’s outside the building that has the B objective.

You can either attempt to run over a prone sniper with the skid loader or you can plant mines around where you think enemy vehicles will be then sit in the skid loader and hide; a mine kill while driving it will count as a kill with it.

Easiest place to find the skid loader is on Wake Island; near the airfield or the construction areas on Sharqu Pennisula and Gulf of Oman. It only appears on conquest assault I'm sure.

I was on Wake Island.
I exit from the C flag with the skid loader to objective B. When I see an american engineer shot in a Mi-28 Havoc helicopter. He try to fire it´s Igla and switch to carbine. While he was busy with the russian heli,I positioned the skid loader straight behind him and acelerate. I managed to perform a roadkill at him.
Noted: He was in front of a wall near to B flag. He was smashed between skid loader and the wall.

The Skid Loader is basically one of those Bobcat bulldozers you see frequently at construction sites. It can be found on Wake Island (if playing conquest) near the Airfield. Just hop in and try to run someone over with it.
