How to unlock the Admiral achievement in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare - Definitive Guide
Toward the later rounds you'll need to start using the LZ the entire time so make sure you have enough money saved in case you need to run to the armory for a quick ammo refill and upgrade.
Good luck!
First of all, I suggest getting as many perks as possible, preferably Health and Medic if on solo. Also, try to get yourself some Distraction Drones as well as the new Stockpile perk to get additional Drones.
If you want to do this on your own, a couple of good places to train are in the Moon Pool and in Cargo. The reason for these two areas are because they offer plenty of open space, they both have traps available for use and they both have a wall weapon that you can purchase and upgrade to which you will have unlimited ammo whenever you need it.
In the interest of making this as simple as possible, here is a couple of glitches that we have found to be quite useful. The links below will lead you to our Youtube Channel.
(We don't recommend using these glitches in public matches for the sake of banning possibilities, however, the achievement can be obtained from private matches which are fine.)
NOTE: it’s to my belief that being in this glitch for round 29-30 voids the achievement for being in the radius of this glitch spot. Leave the glitch when it’s about to be round 29 and finish the last one in the moon pool or cargo room, both very safe areas. I prefer the cargo hold (where your exo is) because it has Chompy that kills and distracts zombies, it is a spawn for Sentinel/Atlas drops, and the multiple crates make escape from the horde easier. The area out of bounds is also very easy to die to death barrier when you move at all, so don’t move, just aim. Aim the telefrag up towards the ceiling and throw to get out and only defuse bombs that are in the hangar, unless your going for the defuse 5 achievement
Skip to 1.50 or look at the screenshot.

Make sure to note that he is going into the spot with two teleport bombs, meaning he can teleport out whenever he wants. Also look at where Ashley is aiming when he’s throwing the teleport frag. This positioning and low aim in the middle of the fence are crucial to not messing up.
The best guns to do this with are #1 the Cauterizer shotgun (kind of like AWs ray gun), and #2 being the S-12 or the Limbo WW.
On round 1, shoot zombies in the leg 4 times and melee. On round 2 shoot 7 times, and round 3 shoot 8 times before you melee. Use the grenade disposal to get some free points and keep in mind you get a free grenade every round, no matter what round it is. The wall is very good for opening up the doors to your exo a lot sooner.
Here is a list of things that don’t matter or hurt you when you’re in this god spot
Zombies
Infected
Dogs
Goliath (AST) enemies
And..
Every other bomb EXCEPT the one in the HANGAR. Defuse this one quickly since it will infect you, flushing you out of your hiding spot and push you through tight hallways to disinfect. (Hint, this is where the S-12 pays off)
In order to earn the trophy, you have to complete the first 29 waves and enter into wave 30 for it to unlock. The game is increasingly more difficult depending on how many people are in your group and how much you communicate. If you're trying to survive until wave 30 then I highly recommend getting contact grenades and either the Cel-3 Cauterizer or the S-12 or the new LZ-52 Limbo Gun. Upgrade whatever gun you choose to run with as soon as you can. The contact grenades are 750 credits and replace your frag grenades. Teleport grenades are a new tool that is also useful for clearing out hordes of the undead, or getting you out of a tricky area. The LZ-52 Limbo gun, Cauterizer and S-12 guns must be obtained via the 3D printer.
Tips & Strategies:
- Avoid narrow areas where you can become easily trapped, and run around a big area in a circular fashion. For example run around the outside perimeter of your area. I recommend the Cargo Area where the Exo-Suits are.
- You can only take two hits before you are downed without the Exo Health Upgrade. Use Exo-Boost to fly out of dangerous situations.
- Use the area traps to help you thin the herd.
- If you are playing solo, the Exo Medic upgrade allows you to self revive, and can be repurchased and used 3 times in one game.
- Upgrade Exo-Health first. Unless you're playing solo, then get Medic first for the self-revive.
- If you are playing in co-op, pay attention to your group and communicate.
- Be sure to pick up Atlas Drops as they appear on your screen.
- Note that you receive one free grenade of each type that you carry after completing each round.
- Buy the new perk in Med Bay for 2000. It will let you carry 5 grenades and 3 grenades, in addition to this it will also allow you to carry extra ammo for whatever gun you have.
- Remember to pay 2,500 to upgrade your guns to help kill zombies, especially in the later rounds.
- If you get stuck and swarmed, look down and shoot a contact or teleport grenade at your feet to clear away the zombies.
