How to unlock the Retro Lancer Mastery achievement in Gears of War 4 - Definitive Guide

You can get the 60 kills in a row, you don't have to die after every 3 kills you get. For example, you can kill 9 people in a row and then you will have progress for 3/20 times. Best way to to do this is to get a game of King Of The Hill in Co-Op VS AI on Casual, on a map where the Retro Lancer is available.

Thanks to ICoN xLeViAtHaN for pointing out that it seems like if you play on Casual the maps with the Retro Lancer don't show up very often in the map rotation but if you play on Normal they seem to come up much more often.

The Retro Lancer exists on the following maps:
Checkout
Dam
Diner
Forge
Fuel Depot
Reclaimed
Reclaimed Windflare
Security

Hope this helps and good luck! smile

I tried in other maps, but made it playing in Checkout, the best map in my humble opinion. This map is very short and I made progress very fast playing Versus AI on normal difficulty. I played after 1:30 AM because of probability of less human players in my team. This way, I played almost all matches alone. Was very fast.

I agree netstryker, I did the majority of the killing on that map too :)

I noticed that in you play on casual the maps with the retro lancer are almost never in the rotation. On normal they seem to come up much more often.

Do executions count towards progress (for example, like it does with the Embar)?

Executions worked for me when the achievement came out, as long as they have not patched it now it should work :)

Retro charge counts
However I can only do it once per game
I got 9kills without dying and the counter only went up for it counting it once

This glitched for me in a good way for my final ‘set’ I killed 2 enemies then died. The wave ended (was on Warzone) and the next wave we lost (there were no retro’s)

Next wave I picked up the retro, killed 1 enemy and it moved up the 5% to pop 🤷‍♂️

To speed up the achievement progress a bit, I recommend the following:
-Play with a partner or more "if you can put extra controls better, to fill the equipment"; in the King of the Hill game mode against Bots (preferable in the lowest difficulty).

-Now the ANFITRION for nothing in the world must LEAVE THE GAME while the other players act killing bots or whatever the achievement requires to increase their progress. Once the progress has increased, LEAVE THE GAME and have the host invite you again to return to the game (repeat this process each time you increase your achievement progress).

-I recommend doing it at night because there are usually few people and be agile since sometimes a different player can join.

A disadvantage is for the host because he has to stay in the game but between the members he can alternate the host.

¡REPEAT! is to accelerate a bit the progress of the achievement without having to finish the game and start a new one, I hope it helps. Good lucktoast
