How to unlock the Blind Bomber achievement in Battlefield 4 - Definitive Guide
Looks like this achievement is obtainable now after the latest patch!
Easiest way to get this is to get three friends in an empty server and land an attack helicopter somewhere. Have the other team put down a spawn beacon and keep killing till you get the cheevo. Once both people on your team have it, hop out of the helicopter and put down a spawn beacon. Then let the other team shoot you and everyone gets it.
This achievement is glitched currently. I even tested on an empty server with 3 friends and set it up to confirm (4 people starts a match). Tried it with gunner seat and pilot seat on Gulf of Oman with attack chopper, no achievement.
For this achievement, search for the map "Gulf Of Oman", and what I found worked wonders for me was getting in the "Viper" attack chopper. Get in the secondary seat and wait for a pilot, you will be in a explosive cannon. Switch the view to IR with , and happy hunting, doesn't need to be done in one helicopter, just in one round. I did Obliteration, going for the bomb plant and detonations I needed anyway.
This must be done in the Gulf of Oman map, easiest done in either Large Conquest or CTF due to the large selection of air vehicles available. You have a choice of getting the 5 kills in either the attack helicopters, jets or the bomber. The 5 kills can be a mix of any of these vehicles. Alternatively, this can also be boosted with 4 players in an empty server. You can either land a chopper or jet in an adequate position, and have everyone on the enemy team line up for the person going for the kills. The use of spawn beacons and medic are recommended as they will make this process quicker.
*Glitch Warning* - This trophy is potentially glitched. For the most part, it should pop-up fine but on rare occasions it won't. If you experience the glitch, the only thing you can do is perform the requirements again.
You must play on Gulf of Oman to get this trophy. This may be tricky depending on how good you are with air vehicles and getting in before teammates occupy them. If you’re a good pilot the trophy shouldn't be too hard to get. Be wary that there’s a new gimmick to the map, which is, sandstorm. When it comes in, it will significantly compromise visibility on the map. Lock-on weapons will be less effective also, but they’ll still work. If you’re flying a jet, be wary of cranes and tall buildings on the map.
If you're not a good pilot, your best bet would be getting in the Attack Chopper as a gunner and hope someone with a pilot's license will fly you around.
- Passenger helicopter with a machine gun - kills with a machine gun do not count towards the trophy (possibly a bug, but tested from personal experience).
- Combat helicopter for 2 seats (gunner and pilot) - for the trophy it doesn’t matter who you are, a pilot or a gunner, the main thing is to make 5 of your own kills, and not “assist in killing”.
- Exterminator - the main thing is to have time to finish off the targets so that there are no random “Killed in Action” kills. It is recommended to finish off with a machine gun.
