How to unlock the Flash of Light achievement in Halo 4 - Definitive Guide

This is for a non boosting method.

Obviously, you should put Pulse Grenades in your loadouts and equip the Explosives support upgrade. This will increase the radius and damage the grenade does, making it hopefully easier to get kills.

You only get 1, so if you're going for this don't be afraid to choose them if you get them in ordinance drops.

Now, you're best bet is if you see a one vs one battle happening. Which is better in the FFA playlists. Try and throw your grenade right between them as they close distance when they both have damage. Try to only throw your grenades at 2 enemies. If you're in team slayer try to go for the initial rush to power weapons, like the rocket launcher or sticky detonator. Objective gametypes will also likely make a team group together.

Keep at it. This will happen more by luck than skill. And if you're unsure, most of the damage of a pulse grenade come from the pulse at the very beginning and end of it's life.

EDIT: credit to Lazyslothboy001 I completely forgot about the grenadier mod that allows you to carry an extra grenade, which would start you with 2 pulse grenades.

Edit2: You can get this with two thrown pulse grenades, you just need to get the kills with the pulse grenades.

Not a terrible start. I would add that the Grenadier mod is worth having if you are attempting this legit, as it gives you a second grenade.

Explosive's mod doesn't increase grenade damage, just range and reduces the damage you take from grenades.

@ Methew
Explosive would still be worth using though imo, if only because more range means better chance someone is sitting in the blast radius =P

I can confirm that using two totally different grenades will give you the achievement. I lobbed one to help a friend and got a hail mary as I'm shooting the enemy next to me. As soon as his shields went down I threw my second pulse on the ground and killed him for the double. About four seconds later, it popped.

A good game type to get this achievement is on an Extraction game. There are bound to be more than 2 enemies close to the objective. I did mine on Skyline Extraction and threw 2 pulse grenades, no Grenadier mod needed.

Any game type that draws people to specific points of the map are good for this. Extraction, CTF, FFA Regicide. Seems to be tougher in King of the Hill, but that'd be another choice to consider.

Do you think you can get the first kill with the pulse grenade, the second kill any other way and the third kill with the pulse grenade, giving you a triple kill?

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

I'm interested in completing the Majestic Map Pack achievements. Seems difficult to get into a slayer match, let alone find the required maps.

Down to get all the dlc achievements before servers shut down. I have 2 other controllers to help fill the lobby and will help others with their achievements too. Message me on Xbox so we can coordinate a time. GT: Nahzario
