How to unlock the Master Ninja achievement in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered - Definitive Guide
Difficulty: Recruit
From the beginning of the mission, just take out your pistol and don't shoot any bullets. The AI will take out a good amount of the enemies for you, and there are only a few parts where you will required to push forward and grab a couple of knife kills.
If you die, just reload your last checkpoint. Because you are only using your knife and not using a weapon or reloading it, you will also unlock Retro Shooter:
The mission only takes about 7:30 using this strategy, and doesn't have many hard sections.
Because you complete the mission without firing you also complete the mission without reloading, unlocking
enjoy
If you would like a video guide for this I will leave it below.
You will likely want to attempt this on Recruit difficulty. Simply run through the mission, using nothing except for the knife to kill enemies. Let your team carry the weight, and they will clear the level fairly efficiently. Just run up to stab enemies, and hide behind cover when near a group or hurt. Dying will not void the achievement, however. Just keep your finger off the trigger to avoid firing when startled, and do not use grenades or flashbangs. The trophies should pop after jumping to the helicopter at the end of the mission.
Feel free to ask any questions, and add me on TT/ TA/ PSN/ XBL as Danokitty. Happy hunting!
An easy way to get this Achievement is by playing the level Crew Expendable on Recruit difficulty.
DON'T SHOOT OR USE GRENADES!!!
Let your squad shoot the enemies and only attack if you know that you will not get meleed by someone else.
Crew Expendable.
Use only your knife to kill enemies and complete the mission to pop this and the retro shooter achievements/trophies.
Note to self, if you kill three enemies in a row with your knife, you'll pop the "Three of a kind" achievement/trophy.
Another thing: If you kill an enemy with your knife while being blinded by the flashbang grenade, you'll pop the "Daredevil" achievement/trophy.
One more thing: The achievement/trophy "Three of a Kind" is based of a fourth lower row in poker game.
Suggested Mission: Crew Expendable
You should pair this with the Retro Shooter trophy by making sure not to reload during the mission as well, which should come naturally if you're only using your melee attack. The easiest mission to complete using only your knife (melee) is Crew Expendable. It’s nice and short and your allies will take care of a lot of the enemies for you. Choose Recruit difficulty to make it nice and simple, and make sure to get Three of a Kind while you're at it as well.
Suggested Mission: Crew Expendable
You should pair this with the "Retro Shooter" achievement by making sure not to reload during the mission either, which should come naturally if you're only using your melee attack. The easiest mission to complete using only your knife (melee) is Crew Expendable. It’s nice and short and your allies will take care of a lot of the enemies for you. Of course choose recruit difficulty to make it nice and simple, and make sure to get “Three of a Kind” while you're at it.
