How to unlock the Do You Even Gift? achievement in Halo Infinite - Definitive Guide

EDIT: a lot of you folks in the comments say the achievement is broken now. Below is the original guide I wrote:

Power Weapons are weapons that spawn in floor platforms on multiplayer maps. A couple of examples would be the Rocket Launcher and the Sniper Rifle. Your AI will tell you when do they spawn, and you will see where they are in your HUD.

To drop a weapon, you have to equip it (have it in your hands) and hold the cn_Y button. In order to unlock the achievement, description-wise, then an ally would have to pick up the weapon you just dropped.

As far as I can tell, you can pick up one of these weapons (cn_X button), drop it (cn_Y button) and pick it up again (cn_X button); the achievement unlocked for me that way, which is so dumb because I'm guessing as far the game is concerned YOU do count as one of your allies because you are always in the same team as you.

Some of you guys in the comments section say that SWAPPING weapons does not unlock the achievement. Swapping is just picking up a weapon in the floor and dropping the one you have already in your hands AT THE SAME TIME (cn_X button when you are near a weapon in the floor and you already have two weapons in your inventory). You have to drop the Power Weapon first, then pick it up.

I just popped this in a bot match. Had the sword, threw it down, tagged it and picked it back up.

Can confirm if you drop a pw, ping it, then pick it back up it pops.

Is this just not unlocking for anyone else? I've done this so many times and nothing has worked!

Maybe they patched it so that an ally does have to pick it up now?

The dumb thing for this achievement is the need to hold Y instead of just picking up another weapon back up. At least that didn't work for me... It unlocked just fine the next match when I picked up a weapon, held Y, tried to get a teammate to take it for a second, then took it myself.

can confirm you MUST drop the weapon with Y for this to work.

This one was giving me some trouble, but as others have said, I can confirm you must drop the power weapon by holding Y - not by switching it out for another weapon with X (on default controls).

Once you've dropped it with Y, ping the weapon, then pick it up yourself again. It took a few seconds before it unlocked for me after doing the above. This can be done in a bot match to make it easier.

I can confirm that you can pick up the weapon you just dropped and don't need an ally to pick it up.

I had a Rocket Launcher, dropped it (by holding Y) and picked it right back up and achievement popped.

You can add to the guide that you have to hold cn_X to take back your weapon.

For players on PC using Mouse and Keyboard, I believe the default way to drop the weapon you are holding is to press and briefly hold "V".

Agreed. I just hopped into a bot match. Picked up the hammer. Dropped and waited a few secs. Then picked it back up, then the cheevo popped.

Can confirm this works with power weapons you spawn with in fiesta. No need to ping just drop the heavy weapon and pick it back up.

Same here Hyphy. Done it in every playlist. Also have done it multiple ways: dropping, tagging and picking up myself, dropping tagging, and other teammates picking it up, just dropping and picking it up with no tagging, and just dropping it and having someone else pick it up with no tagging.

Every playlist, every way. Can't stand it lmao

I'm guessing you have to first pick up the power weapon from the spawn point, right? I dropped a sniper rifle (which I got from killing someone) for my teammate to pick up, but the the achievement didn't pop… unless it's glitched?

I did Bot Bootcamp. I picked up a sniper rifle that spawned on the map. I dropped it then picked it up. I got the achievement

I'm not sure about this one. I think it's definitely glitched. I've picked up a sniper rifle, rocket launcher, and Skewer. Dropped them for a teammate to pick up, tagged them, picked them up myself and still this achievement will not pop.

I was chasing one teammate to drop the weapon for him. After he runs away without pick it up I took it and pop the achievement for me.

This is 100% broken now. The "Myffed" guy that unlocked it last clearly cheated to unlock all of the achievements in the game.

Achievement has been fixed in the 30/04 update - I just played Husky Raid and dropped the hammer in my spawn and waited for a team mate to pick up and the achievement popped instantly

I just played a game of super fiesta so you have a much higher chance of getting a power weapon. Simply drop your power weapon by pressing and holding your swap weapons button. Then ping it and wait for a teammate to pick it up. The achievement should pop.

Me dropping and picking up again didn't work but I ended up unlocking this on Team Slayer BR loadout on Behemoth. A sniper rifle spawns and I just tried to get to it first. Then dropped it for a teammate who was trying to get it too. Not too bad.

To get this achievement, simply pick up a heavy weapon and throw it to the ground for an ally to pick it up. It works with these weapons: S7 SNIPER, M41 SPNKR, SKEWER, CINDERSHOT, ENERGY SWORD, ANTIGRAV HAMMER. Here is a video guide to help you.

unlocked this achievement while playing Fiesta. I got the sniper rifle as one of the weapons and dropped it in front of my teammate and they picked it up and the achievement instantly unlocked so Fiesta works for this achievement especially since all weapons are in rotation you have a good chance of getting one to drop for someone

To get this Achievement you must drop a Power Weapon for an ally & have them pick it up.

Power weapons are the following: Energy Sword, Cindershot, Gravity Hammer, Skewer, Rocket Launcher, & Sniper Rifle.
