How to unlock the Can’t Catch Me achievement in Halo 4 - Definitive Guide

General information:

The new Champion Bundle resp. the Bullseye Pack added a new game type called Ricochet, where you have to throw a ball into the enemies' goal to score. The DLC also added a few new armor mods, from which we need one, the Resistor for this particular achievement.

As the description says, you have to score a goal, while you're taking damage with the Resistor mod equipped.

Required DLC:

Update 2013-12-09: The resistor mod has now been unlocked for everybody, making this achievement possible with just the Bullseye Pack downloaded.

For the time being, you need the complete Champions Bundle to get this achievement. The Bullseye Pack alone is not enough, since it doesn't grant early access to the Resistor mod.

However the Resistor mod will be unlocked for all players for free at some point in the future. The solution will then be updated accordingly.


Preparation:

Visit your Loadout screen and make sure to equip the new Resistor armor mod to one of your Loadouts. It is found in the Tactical Package category. If you're going for the other DLC achievements as well, make sure to also equip either the Survivor or the Recharge mods from the Support Upgrade category as they are needed for two other achievements.

Boosting method:

Update: Check out bean is not pro's solution for a new and easier way to get this.

If you're going to boost this, the easiest way I found to do it is to stand directly in front of the enemy goal and face towards it. Then have someone from the opposite team assassinate you. The ball will drop into the goal and count as scored by you, while you're still being assassinated -> taking damage. Achievement unlocked.

If by any chance you get a Score from the grave, the achievement won't unlock because you died before the ball touched the score zone. In that case just try again, but stand closer to the enemies' goal.

Hope, this helps you guys out. Please let me know, if you have any suggestions on the guide. :)

Still no word in the Halo Waypoint forums or elsewhere. My best guess right now would be to wait for the release of the Halo 4 GOTY edition next week and see, if they'll make it available then.

As of Feb 15th 2015, Quickochet is still available in the Team Action Sack whatever-it's-called playlist. It's extremely rare though, but can be boosted with 2 people using 4 controllers each, in the same Halo party. It only came up once after 40-50 searches.

Our experience when boosting this in 2021 was that Team Action Sack was easier to search, since we could do it as a party of 8, but the game mode never showed up after several games in a row.

In contrast, Team Objective was harder to start, since the game has untold amounts of connection issues, and that mode does have randoms in it sometimes, but once we did find each other, we got Ricochet in only 3 or 4 attempts.

@LazyBarbarian: You should. But we never actually tried that while boosting. If anyone could provide any information regarding that, I'll gladly add it to the solution.

@Grumpy Zombie: This is where it gets complicated. As far as I understood it, when you want the achievement now, you have to buy the whole Champions bundle, to get early access to the Resistor mod.

Someone on the x360a.org forums mentioned, that you also get the Resistor mod through the Infinity Armor Pack, but the description on xbox.com doesn't mention it, so I cannot confirm this at the moment.

If you are willing to wait though, it will be unlocked for everybody at some point in the future for free. You only get early access to it, no matter which pack you buy in the end.

I got this while going for the "from downtown" achievement, threw the ball from afar and while I was being shot the ball entered the scoring zone. I uploaded a video clip taken from theater mode to my file share for the record smile

To confirm you can get this if you score while somebody is shooting you, like even if your only taking shield damage. You don't need to have taken health damage for it to count.

For this achievement you should play default Ricochet, which appears in the "Team Objective" playlist for voting pretty often. Pretty much nobody plays in this playlist, but if you stick in the matchmaking queue for a long, long time, especially around evening times in USA, you will get matches going. So, I actually didn't have any particular setup for this achievement beforehand. I ran completely solo playing with all randoms and this is what I did: To begin with, I had Resistor selected in my current loadout, obviously. I took hold of the ball and ran with it all the way to the enemy score area. At that moment, the enemies were either dead or far away from their score area. There was one teammate right next to time and was simply staring at me and wondering why I don't just walk in the enemy score area and score. As he got impatient, he began shooting me a bit, I waited until I had about a quarter of my shield left and then just walked in the score area and scored. The achievement unlocked right away; I wasn't getting shot exactly when I stepped in either. I hope my situation can help you set up yours. Good luck!

this is my first solution, and i'm writing it only because the only other available solution makes this achievement much harder than necessary.

you just need to score a goal with no shields (and, of course, resistor needs to be equipped). how did I do this? i held the ball next to their goal. my teammate hit me once to pop my shield (I was previously full shield), and then i walked into the goal with the ball. done.

I imagine you could even do this yourself by plasma pistoling your shield off, or by throwing a grenade to take your shield off. either way, just get meleed once and then score the goal. super easy.

This achievement is still possible after sunset.

Custom Loadouts no longer work after sunset so to get this you need the game to default to the needed loadout.

Shotgun Ricochet in Action Sack has the Resistor package by default so you want to search and vote for this game mode to unlock this achievement.

Make sure one of your loadouts as the new Resistor mod equip before joining a Ricochet match. Once you’re in a match, pick up the ball and make your way to the scoring zone. Linger around the enemy's goal until they begin to shoot at you. After taking some damage, run the ball into the goal and the achievement will unlock.
