Kill a Player Demon with each of the 8 Slayer weapons in BATTLEMODE

How to unlock the Weapons Expert achievement in DOOM Eternal - Definitive Guide

You can do this in a private lobby.

The first 7 weapons the Slayer will have access to immediately. The 8th weapon, the BFG-9000, you can only get as an end of round upgrade at the end of the third round (going into round four.) This is a cumulative achievement; it doesn't need to be done in one match.

The recommended approach is to start with the shotgun and work your way clockwise around the weapon wheel (using cn_RB to open the wheel). Only the kill shot counts, so for example you could use the Chaingun to wear down someone's health then finish the player off with the Rocket Launcher.

It seems that the BFG kills are buggy to register. If you're finding the achievement isn't unlocking (and it only unlocks at the end of the match, not during the match itself), I would suggest getting up to two rounds of BFG ammo and killing both Demon players with two shots, or with one round of BFG ammo, get the health of both Demon players down very low and kill them at the same time with one shot.

Note that when you select the BFG as your round four upgrade, you only get one round of ammo. You can pick up at least one more round using the chainsaw against demons, but the ammo drop appears to be uncommon.

I wanna add that it wasn't till my fourth BFG kill that the achievement finally popped. It took me two direct hits with the BFG to kill the demon that got me the achievement were as the ones before only took one. It's likely you may have to do a decent amount of damage with the weapon before killing them with it in order for it to count. Just a thought.

Yeah, I had my two boosting friends have the same issue. I’ll make this a little clearer in my solution. Thanks for the anecdote!

Can people please stop posting here and just setup boosting sessions? That's a better way of securing people to play with anyway.

This bugged for the BFG specifically in our boosting session last night. The way we got it was similar to the solution above - spent one of the 5 min rounds chainsawing as many trash mobs as possible to pick up BFG ammo (drops fairly frequently) and then doing a lot of demon kills with it. Annoying but the two of us that it bugged on both got it after that.

I killed both with a single shot and it didn't work, even tried shooting one with two shots at full health.

Can confirm that this achievement is buggy. I killed 3 demons with the BFG in different matches but the achievement did not unlock.

I ended up boosting it in a private match, it seems the workaround is to kill both demons at the same time with the BFG. Once I did that, it unlocked at the end of the match.

Ok figured out a better way as slayer. Use super shotgun and get close shots using the hook. If health takes a hit run and chainsaw or regular kill spawned enemies for health/ammo/armor. Use dash and double jump to your advantage!

Use rocket launcher with lock-on attachment for medium range. Take your time don’t rush trying to kill both guys quickly. You can just keep letting them respawn to rack up kills. I didn’t realize how many resources you get from killing the spawned enemies I was always just avoiding wasting ammo on them but they drop a lot of stuff!

When I'm a demon the Slayer wins three matches in a row, when I'm the Slayer the demons win three matches in a row. They all end in under 2 mins a match. Absolute dreadful game mode.

Not sure if this helps at all, but are you killing the enemies with a direct hit from the BFG or are they dying from the splash damage/AOE damage as the projectile flies past them And explodes? I’m wondering if perhaps you just need to make sure you deal direct hits to kill them, and the reason it isn’t counting is if they die from the splash damage

What worked for me and my group regarding the bfg kills was for the slayer to knock both demons down to critical health and then kill both demons together with a single shot from the bfg. First person in our group tried your method 3 times with no success, then a double kill popped his achievement finally. The double kill method then worked first try for everyone else in the party, so I would suggest others try the same if you're having trouble.

This seems to be broken. I got over a dozen kills with the BFG but it only unlocked after I killed exactly two player demons with one shot.

Try to get both demons at low life and pray to god it kills both.

I must be lucky. I got this after 4 matches as the slayer naturally without boosting at all, and won 2/4 matches. It's my 1st MP achievement full stop. I'm not even that good at DOOM. Got it after 1st BFG weapon, it was actually my assault rifle that was buggy and my last needed weapon kill. Must just be buggy for some, because I had no issues.

This is what me and my group did and each of us got the achievement this way. First we would get 2 kills with each weapon in Round 1, then have the Slayer win. Demons then win Rounds 2 and 3 so Slayer can get BFG. Slayer weakens both demons then kill both with one BFG shot, the one you start Round 4 with. This will give both teams 2 wins so you go into Round 5. Then either Slayer can kill both demons or Demons can kill slayer. First round we didn't do that and Slayer won Round 4 and then the game and didn't get achievement. We then did what I notated above and went to Round 5 and all 3 of us got the achievement. So if you're having trouble with BFG counting, maybe get a double kill with BFG in Round 4 but go to Round 5. Maybe going into a new round will help it counting?

This one can be tedious and a bit tricky, as the title says use each weapon type to kill a demon in battlemode. For the BFG the rounds will need to go to i think 2-0 or 1-1 to allow you to gain access to the BFG at the interval where you select upgrade, there's no other way to get the BFG.

Also note that when using the BFG make sure the demon is at its lowest health possible to be sure of the kill and be aware that a direct hit with the BFG will not count for this, you need to kill them from the beam itself.

If you find this one difficult you can do this in a private match too ideally with 3 people total.

*This is an online achievement*

Yet another self explanatory achievement, you need to kill a Demon with each of the 8 weapons. This can of course be very easily boosted along with "Blood Bath" if you're doing such a thing. The weapons you need to get a kill with are:

  1. Combat Shotgun
  2. Super Shotgun
  3. Heavy Cannon
  4. Chaingun
  5. Plasma Rifle
  6. Ballista
  7. Rocket Launcher
  8. BFG

Note that you have to acquire the BFG as a pick up from the arena and it can only be found and used in the 4th round.

7 of the 8 types of weapons are available to you initially. The last one is the BFG, obtained as an upgrade to the third tier. Accordingly, to get it you need to play 2-1 in any direction. Try to shoot more accurately, because judging by the mechanics of the game, it is a direct hit that causes damage, and not the rays emanating from the projectile.

I will try to describe in detail the possibility of obtaining this trophy with 2 players, whom you can try to find using the “LOOKING!” function in the upper right corner of the description.

To get the trophy, you need to make 8 kills using all types of weapons against online opponents, doing it honestly is quite difficult and time-consuming, so below I present a list of actions for each of “your” players:

A) Go to Battlemode, create a closed game, invite 2 players, create a party with headsets and hope for a miracle that everyone will join without any problems, fortunately there are a lot of glitches and dropouts and you can just spend a lot of time waiting for one of the players ... Try logging out and re-logging in, any methods are good, but after you have received an invite and confirmed it, it is better not to touch anything in the menu at all and wait for the joint lobby to open!

B) Instructions for EXECUTIONER weapons are presented clockwise
Round 1 - the Executioner wins, we make kills on one enemy, do not touch the other, we win after you are sure that you have used all the presented guns (there may be errors in the description):

1 weapon Combat shotgun (we kill with a classic shot );
2 weapons Super shotgun - double-barreled shotgun (we kill with a classic shot );
3 weapons Heavy gun - machine gun (we kill with a classic shot );
4 weapons Plasma rifle (we kill with a classic shot );
5 weapons Machine gun (we kill with a classic shot );
6 Ballista weapon (we kill with a classic shot );
7 weapon Rocket launcher (kill with classic shot );

8 weapons will open further in round 4;

Round 2 - The Executioner wins;
Round 3 - the Executioner loses (important! choose the BFG-9000 ability, top cell );
Round 4 - reduce the life of the Demons to a minimum, approximately so that one shot from the BFG-9000, that very last cannon, is enough for you, aim at one of the demons and shoot, the main thing is that they stand nearby and die from one shot.

C) Instructions for DEMONS

Round 1 - you lose to the Executioner (no matter what skill you choose);
Round 2 - you lose to the Executioner (no matter what skill you choose);
Round 3 - win the Executioner (no matter what skill you choose);
Round 4 - give the Executioner the opportunity to reduce your life to a critical level (2 Demons), then stand close to each other and wait for the “green bird” BFG 9000 to fly out.

The Executioner will receive a trophy at the end of the session!
Receipt time: 5 minutes

Only kills from normal shooting mode count. In the sections, you won’t be able to watch the stages during the game; you will receive the trophy only after the end of the match.

You need to kill both demons with BFG in a match, not necessarily at once, you can take turns. First one, then the second, even if the second has already been resurrected.

all the above hints about the fact that BFG9000 needs to kill two at once and with an accurate hit is complete nonsense, it’s enough to kill at least somehow

In order for a kill from BFG to be counted, you need to kill two opponents , you can at least in different matches, one in one game, the second in a completely different one, at least that’s how it happened for me, game version 1.05

It is enough to kill only one demon with a direct hit, but after that do not end the round, but run for another 30 seconds. The trophy is awarded after the match is completed

To perform a kill for the BFG, it is enough to destroy ONE demon, not 2! Verified.

The trophy is glitchy, most likely due to the chat servers. First, you can check your progress in the optional stages. Secondly, if you don’t get it, try killing demons NOT using modules. I don’t know exactly how it happened to me, I killed players 13 times in one round with different weapons, and after the end of the match it happened.

The trophy is either buggy or the description is incorrect. Many people only count 7 out of 8 types of weapons in their statistics. I got it like this: in a closed game (it requires 3 people), I won 2 matches, played one - this is mandatory, otherwise you won’t get BFG. When only the BFG remains, get your comrades down to minimum health, have them stand next to each other and finish them both off with one BFG shell. It just happened this way.

The trophy dropped after only one kill from the BFG. I played against a mancubus, the second opponent left the match. First, I sold the mancubus, waited until it healed with an ability, then carefully sold it again, leaving one bar of life, and fired a charge from the BFG.
A projectile from the BFG only kills on a direct hit, and does not take many lives. Therefore, it is better to shoot mainly close and at large and slow opponents, i.e. in mancubus)
If you're leading 2-1 but miss with a BFG, you'll just die. There will be another try in the next round.

In total, according to the standard, 7 guns are issued. 8 is BFG.

Feature of BFG:
  • Issued only if the match was played with a score of 2:1
  • Kills with a direct hit of the ball into the demon's body, and not with lightning
