How to unlock the It Really Does Beat Everything achievement in Halo Infinite - Definitive Guide

This one can be done on any difficulty and it can be done SOLO, you need to progress all the way until the mission "the Sequence" to be able to get this achievement.

Boot up mission the Sequence. Defeat the ground enemies at the start and attempt to open the door. When it does not open, it will unlock 4 Beacons chief must visit. The one we want to visit, is the one south of FOB Kilo, near Annex Ridge. Go to FOB Kilo ON FOOT or by Vehicle, and do NOT fast travel if you are doing mission replay. Fast traveling seems to mess up the mission replay. You might be able to fast travel on a fresh playthrough though. (Edit: Other users said fast traveling on fresh playthrough made it so enemies did not spawn, therefore it is recommended to NOT fast travel.)

Tip: It can be helpful to hijack the Banshees that spawn when you start crossing the bridge so you can get across the map faster. I found it was easiest to hijack them with the grapple-shot after I crossed the bridge as they tend to fly lower once you cross. In addition you may be able to Spawn a vehicle at FOB Lima, or take the banshee at Riven Gate on the North side behind a locked door.

Once you are near FOB Kilo, follow the path leading south from FOB Kilo. You do not need to clear FOB Kilo, south of FOB Kilo is a Scorpion tank that spawns.

Edit: User FQX suggested this map of the Scorpion Tanks exact location:
https://mapgenie.io/halo-infinite/maps/zeta-halo?locationIds...

Get inside this tank, and clear all of the enemies outside of the Beacon while STAYING INSIDE THE TANK. It is recommended to NOT have marines on the MG, as they may screw up the achievement. Do not kill any of the enemies while outside the tank, use the tanks cannon. After you clear all of the ghosts, wraiths, it is possible the weapon (Cortana) will say "That's all of them" or something similar, but there is probably still some grunts hiding in the general area. Drive around and keep searching and shooting all of the enemies in the area until the achievement pops. Some of them may be very well hidden and a little bit away, but they should be within the general area. Hope this was helpful. :)

Edit: Users mentioned unlocking this by using the "tank gun", so long as they made sure to start on foot from the Scorpion's spawn. I can't guarantee this will work but if you want to give it a try please let me know if it doesn't work. I see data of people saying it did work, I want to know the data of the people for whom it doesn't work, so I can gauge its consistency. If it is consistent, then we can update the solution, thank you! :D

You can definitely get this on LASO.

I took out "everything", and The Weapon gave the all-clear. However, a Ghost and a Brute had been blown massively away due to the Scorpion. So, after going inside the beacon, activating the console, and leaving, I then explored around in the Scorpion. I went along all of the paths around the beacon area, and nothing was there. I'd given up hope, and thought I was going to have to start the mission again – having been on foot for most of it, and avoiding Facilities, Targets, FOBs, and Squads, as I didn't want to interfere with the mission due to the mission being notoriously dodgy with tracking progress. Just before cutting my losses, I started going up the mountain path behind the beacon.

I only went up past two bends in the path before deciding to head back. However, when I drove back past the beacon, and into the arena area in front of it, the Ghost and Brute had respawned. I then killed them with the Scorpion, and unlocked the achievement.

Obviously, there was a reset, but it isn't clear whether it was due to the time that passed; going up the path behind to allow them opportunity to spawn; or both. But I thought I'd add this comment in case anyone else ends up having enemies thrown out of the area.

I couldn't seem to find the Scorpion that is supposed to spawn. However, at FOB Kilo you can call in a Scorpion. Also, if the achievement is not unlocking, you will need to drive around the area to find every enemy as they will not show up on the radar until you are close to them.

Worked for me. I didn’t see a tank near the FOB, but I spawned one there and drove to the base. I *did* accidentally run over an enemy rather than blast him with the gun, but it still popped.

The Game Failed to load any enemies when I used the Fast Travel feature to FOB Kilo during the Mission Replay of The Sequence.

I had to travel by foot & vehicle, to FOB Kilo which is next to the "South Beacon", in order to have the enemies load properly.

I used the Tank that spawns nearby and my teammates called in their own Scorpion Tanks.

The fast travel bug I believe was in the game before the mission replay. I remember key moments of my fist play through were the enemies didn’t spawn at the beacons and couldn’t progress the mission when I via fast travel during the mission.

When you start the sequence, there will be 2 banshees. It's easy to hijack one with the grapple which makes getting to Fob Kilo alot quicker

If you have the scorpion gun, it counts too.
I did this without even getting into the tank.

It's possible to do this with the Tank Gun, but you must start the battle from the Scorpion's spawn point as there are some enemies nearby that count... Unfortunately I started from the Beacon initially, when I went to kill the enemies near the Scorpion, the other enemies all respawned... I was able to unlock the achievement after killing them all once again however.

Tried using the tank gun from the scorpion spawn (which is on the right hand side walking from FOB KILO behind some trees) but had no luck. So went back and just went through the area WITH the scorpion tank and got it after clearing the enemies by the spire.
I had cleared the smaller enemies along the path before reaching the spire with the tank gun and still got it to pop.

In case useful to others, I did this with a friend in co-op on legendary.
We spawned at one of the other spires and made our way to FOB Kilo.
He ordered a tank, I got the available tank outside. We started making our way through the enemies. My tank got destroyed.
He continued killing with the Scorpion tank. I spawned inside the turrent but DID NOT FIRE as we weren't sure whether it would void the achievement and I basically acted as a spotter for him.
He killed everything with the tank and and some point we had two markers for the last two enemies. As soon as the last one was dead, both of us got the achievement.

Had to do this two times for it to unlock. First time I flew to FOB KILO in a stolen banshee and just spawned a scorpion. While driving to the beacon a marine ended up following me, and I'm not sure if it was because of the spawned tank or if the marine killed an enemy but the achievement didn't unlock. First try just using the tank already sitting in the woods and it unlocked, so I'd just recommend using that instead.

I spawned a Scorpion Tank at FOB Kilo as I didn’t see one lying around and that worked fine.

Did it with the tank gun first time, when she gives the all clear she is wrong, there were still some enemies hiding about so I mopped them up. But yeah tank gun totally works for this, good glitch.

Did it with the tank gun and a stray marine actually killed the last guy lol, so he isn’t an issue

Kudos for pointing out the stray Grunts that run away and hide. I was missing two of the little buggers.

I just wanted to note, I passed by FOB Kilo and since I had done everything on the map prior to the update immediately two marines, one with a rocket launcher started following me. I tried kiling all enemies before they had the chance to shoot but the rocker launcher marine shot and killed one of the enemy grunts at the base. I ran over the marine and proceeded to kill all enemies with the scorpion, and it still unlocked. So it seems marines stealing your kills and killing them with their weapons doesn't prevent you from getting the achievement.

well, turns out you can get this achievement with the Scorpion Gun if you carry it with you through the game. (And I just realized that people have said that before. Well, I concur)
More importantly, I got the achievement killing everyone, turning on the beacon and then killing one extra enemy that spawned after the cutscene. So if it doesn't unlock immediately, look for the extra enemy that spawns.

Just a little fun fact to add to the other guide : getting kills with the Pocket Scorpion gun/EE from Outpost Tremonius actually works.

If you don't know what the Pocket Scorpion is : it's a very OP gun you can grab during the mission Outpost Tremonius (yes, the mission, you can't grab it from the open world). Now that they added the mission replay, you can just replay Outpost Tremonius, grab the Pocket Scorpion, then simply Fast Travel anywhere or Replay any Mission.

Ugh, these new achievements have been so hit or miss it's annoying!
I started the mission, highjacked a banshee to the location of the Scorpion Tank, killed every single enemy at the south beacon to the point the Weapon says, "no enemies detected - all clear" and no achievement pop. This isn't the first of the new achievements to fail to pop once completed the instructions to a T.

You can use a mixture of the Scorpion Gun and the real tank to clear the enemies. Not sure why you would want to, but I decided to see if it would still work and it sure does!
I can give you a practical example : I did my achievement mostly with the Scorpion Tank. After clearing the area, I didn't get the achievement, so I started running around with the grapple, trying to find if anything was still hidding and surely enough, found 2 grunts hidden in the "forest". Decided to try killing them with the Pocket Scorpion instead of going back to the Tank and surely enough : it unlocked once these two little guys were dead.

[...]to the point the Weapon says, "no enemies detected - all clear" and no achievement pop.
Some enemies can still be roaming around even if this voice line triggers. In fact, most of the time, it will be the case, a couple grunts might still be hidden.

Yeah ignore the all clear you hear, make sure you look around the entire area. Unlocked after I spotted a few enemies hiding.

Also, quick note for those that may be continuing off the LASO saved game. Be weary of skulls which send enemies flying across the map from explosions. As hilarious as that may be, you'd end up having to go on a bit if a hunt. I'd recommend turning the skulls/difficulty off. Worked like a charm for me.

To get the achievement, you must launch THE SEQUENCE mission and eliminate all the enemies at the South Beacon with a Scorpion tank. Go to the south of the Forward Base Kilo to get a Scorpion Tank (without using Fast Travel) hidden between the trees. If the Scorpion tank is not there, get one from Forward Base Kilo. Then go to the South Beacon and defeat all enemies without getting out of the Scorpion tank.

TIP: Capture a Banshee to reach the South Beacon faster.

Here is a video to help you:

Can be obtained by replaying the mission "Sequence"
Travel to Kilo Base without using fast travel. Call a tank and use it to clear the area near the nearest lighthouse without leaving the tank
