How to unlock the Dodge This! achievement in Halo 4 - Definitive Guide

To obtain this achievement you are required to direct impact two enemies with the Spartan Laser on the Castle DLC maps. A Castle DLC Map, Outcast, has two lasers that spawn at the start of the match. The both spawn towards the right side at the spawns. Once you've acquired the laser simply hold it down and direct impact two enemies in the same match. You can also direct impact two enemies with one laser blast and earn the achievement. The achievement will unlock immediately after killing two enemies with a direct blast netting you 20 gamerscore. Outcast is the only Castle DLC map that intially spawns Spartan Lasers but you can get Lasers from an ordnance drop on the other maps (Daybreak and Perdition) on the slayer variant game types. Spartan Lasering a Warthog with two people in it should also net you the achievement. This will also count towards destroying two vehicles as well increasing your progress with the Scrapyard achievement.

Outcast is the only one that at least has them spawn from the beginning. Not sure if some weapons will respawn as a laser in time.

I don't know why we didn't think of this in my session, but to save shots it might be worth while to have 2 people in a vehicle and have the one with the laser blow up the vehicle. (I don't know if it counts, but it's worth a shot)

It seems like it might work but I'm not sure if blowing up a vehicle with a laser earns you a Laser Kill Medal or just the Destroy A Vehicle Medal. And since it needs to be direct impact you would need to shoot the driver/passenger directly. You might be able to do it that way, but it seems a little complicated so it might be easier to simply kill two people with a single laser shot, drop it, and so on. If anyone tries this let me know and I will update the solution accordingly.

I just wanted to add: You can also get this on every other map if you play an infinity gametype (infinity slayer, infinity ctf...) and get lucky with the ordnance. I got the achievement on daybreak getting the laser in my very first ordnance. Having the perk (don't know what it's called) which allows you to swap the first three weapons for another set of weapons makes getting the laser easier obviously.

@TillTheMorning Thanks I'll make sure to add the ordnance drops to my solution!

I got this by Splasering a Warthog with a driver and a gunner killing both of them. It was on Outbreak which has one spawn at the beginning near the Red team's initial spawn.

Second that I got it from just destroying a warthog with a driver and gunner in it!

A few additional tips:
- Turn on the Ammo support upgrade - it gives you 2 additional shots to work with
- The Laser can also spawn as resupply ordnance in Dominion

This solution and the comments are not helpful at all. Everybody is just talking maps and not map/gametype combinations that they found a Spartan Laser in.

Now that there is no Castle DLC playlist, the maps are only available in certain other playlists. I have been trying to get a Spartan Laser on one of these maps for close to four hours now.

In your original solution you say that two lasers spawn on Outcast. The only gametype I can manage to get Outcast on is Lightning Flag, which doesn't have any map based weapon spawns.

So, I have been boosting out ordinance drops on the other maps in Infinity Slayer and Lightning Flag with no results. I get three drops in IS and 4-5 in LF. Spartan Laser is never an option.

Then a guy in the comments says he used a 'perk' that allows you to switch the weapons in an ordinance drop. There is no 'perk' in the game like this that I can find. Don't know what he's talking about.

And finally another guy in the comments says there's a Spartan Laser spawn on Daybreak by the Red Team's Spawn, again neglecting the gametype he supposedly found this in.

So basically this solution and comments are just pissing me off and wasting my time.

As of 2/19/15, playing just one or two Castle maps will automatically pop all of the Castle DLC achievements.

Ok so this achievement video is in my file share. But I just wanted to add, how I was able to do this. I found a match on Oddball. So everyone on my team went to get the Odd ball... This gave me an opportunity to easily get the Splaser. I saw that everyone was grouping up near the Oddball and definitely got a lucky shot off! BLAM double kill!!

You can obtain a Spartan Laser on Outcast, or through an Ordnance Drop. If relying on the latter method, be sure to equip the Ordnance Priority mod to one of your loadouts so that you will obtain Ordnance Drops faster during the match. Once you have acquired the Spartan Laser, proceed to kill an enemy Spartan with a direct blast. Using the Spartan Laser to destroy an enemy-occupied vehicle will also count as long as you obtain the Laser Kill medal. After obtaining two Spartan Laser Kill medals, the achievement will unlock.
