How to unlock the Clusterluck achievement in Gears of War: Ultimate Edition - Definitive Guide

This is most easily accomplished using a grenade in ACT 1: Ashes - Trial By Fire, near the beginning of the chapter, on any difficulty although Casual is recommended.

Continue through the level until you ascend up a staircase into an open area with a large building, triggering a short cutscene. After the cutscene ends, pull out your grenades and then roadie run to the left hand side all the way to the back of the area. Once you reach the end you'll notice an emergence hole open up. Just use cover and throw a grenade near the edge of the emergence hole as the enemies emerge, easily killing all 3 and gaining 1 count towards the achievement. "Load Last Checkpoint" and repeat the process until the achievement unlocks.

Great guide. I just wanted to make a note that apparently the hammer of dawn closing an E-hole worked for me too during Act 4. It was crazy but awesome :)

Throwing the grenade behind the hole behind the hole works much better than throwing it at the edge of the hole on Trial By Fire. Throwing it at the edge, sometimes the enemy gets pushed out of the way by the explosion somehow. Behind the hole works like a charm.

Thanks Maka ...
Just done it worked well better than the old way by the doors.
When you get up to the end by the hole best to go against the wall like Maka as one on the ground comes from the rightsize and you end up throwing over his head.

This is pretty easily achieved anywhere there's an emergence hole shortly after a checkpoint. I went for the one in Act II - Nightfall Lethal Dusk just after you use the spotlight to guide Dom and got credit every time without any particular consideration for where I was landing the grenade.

Act 3-2 (Evolution) on Casual difficulty is a great place to earn this achievement with no effort at all, play up to the part where the stranded guy falls to his death on the wooden planks and gets eaten alive by lambent wretches.

Purposely fall down to where the stranded just fell and equip your grenades, gather three wretches together, press cn_B while next to the wretches to tag them and your frag will detonate taking at least 4 wretches with it every-time.

Then revert to last checkpoint and do the same over and over till your achievement unlocks.

It's especially good here as you can very easily take out 6+ at a time which counts for 2/10 of the achievement each time. Just make sure to run around and gather enough enemies up.

Best method by far. I can't believe some people still think the other parts are better lol.

I've always done it this way because there is no possible way you can mess up, in my mind this is by far the best method.

Load up Act 1 - Trial by Fire on casual difficulty and play until the first short cutscene after the stairs (1 minute). In the back of this area is an e-hole to be found. We use this e-hole ten times to unlock the achievement. Throw a grenade in the e-hole when it emerges and you will kill three locust. The game tells you in the right corner of your screen whether you've killed three enemies (clusterluck counter). After you've closed the e-hole with your grenade, reload the last checkpoint and repeat this process until the achievement unlocks.

This is of course for killing 3 enemies at once 10 times.

First up we'll load a single player campaign on Act 1: Chapter 2 with Casual difficulty. Play a minute into the level and you'll hit a checkpoint that has you look up at this old structure. From there run left and cut into the right at the far end to an opening grub hole. Time your grenade right and progress will show up for the achievement. Click start and load checkpoint. Rinse and repeat, video if you need help.

The best place that I have found is in Act III, Chapter 1 (Downpour). It comes with the first encounter with lambent wretches. Simply load the chapter on casual, run to the encounter(there will be a small scene that drags your attention away), equip a frag grenade, run around in the center until most of the wretches are around you, and tag/melee one of the wretches with a grenade. After this (you will die), reload the checkpoint and repeat. There is a possibility(almost always) to get two counts towards the ten in each go.

When you kill three enemies at once using a grenade you will unlock progress to this achievement, shown in the bottom right from the screen. Just reload the checkpoint and kill them again until you get the achievement. There are some recommended places to do this, here is a video:

This is the video version to go with Serious X Devil's written guide. Act 3-Chapter 1, after you run into the stranded.
It's also important to be playing on casual, since you are allowed to take more damage. After you die, just reload cp and do it until it unlocks.

I did this on ACT IV - The Long Road Home - Hazing (Chapter 3)

This is the part right after you kill the Berzerker in the Conservatory with the Hammer of Dawn (Chapter 2 - Bad to Worse). If you are quick enough to kill the Berzerker, you should have a few more minutes to use the Hammer of Dawn.

At the start of chapter 3, you'll advance to a courtyard where two drones are near a troika turret on an elevated platform. Quickly take them out with the Hammer of Dawn.

Advance into the courtyard, and you should have an emergence hole (e-hole) form near your right. Quickly close that one.

Move forward a bit, away from the entrance that you came through into the courtyard and you should have an e-hole form behind you.

Wait for at least three enemies to emerge and take them out with the Hammer of Dawn. Most of the enemies that have spawned out the e-holes have been wretches. Rinse and repeat 10 times for the achievement.

During the mission "Lethal Dusk" in ACT 2 I came across a good place to do this (shown in the video)

Honestly tho any place that you find 3 grubs spawn you can always reload checkpoint and have your progress saved so there will be a good handful of areas you can do this.

Act IV, Chapter 6: right after loading into the checkpoint, run to the first doorway of the middle hallway and prepare your grenade to land where the gate falls down. As soon as you see the gate fall, chuck your grenade.

They aren't clumped up reliably, so it fails part of the time, but the benefit is that it's 10 feet from the checkpoint, so it's a quick reload.

Act II - Nightfall / DARK LABYRINTH ("Go through the ruined house") - I showed my method in the video.
This is the perfect time to collect "Kill 3 enemies at once 10 different times".

After kicking through the door, we go further to the right where several enemies run out,
then throw a grenade (so that it bounces off the wall and lands close to our opponents
instead of flying somewhere far away), and even if we die or if we survive then commit suicide
(going back to the moment before the door), these grenade kills are not lost.
This is counted so after respawning we can continue in the same way until we get achievement.

Unfortunately, there is no pop-up window with recorded achievement
(as you know, recorded clips from games on Xbox One as opposed to backwards compatible with Xbox 360
they don't rip achievement pop-up notifications into the video, even if we're recording
through e.g. twitch).
