How to unlock the Perfect run achievement in How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition - Definitive Guide

The achievement will unlock after pressing cn_A on the ranking screen and it can be done in Co-Op but just make sure you have a good partner because your scores combine at the end for the "S" rank.

The guide below is for challenge 3 on normal, but you could unlock this on easy, but you will need to have good accuracy (85%+) and not lose that much health (5-10%) and on normal you will have more room for error.
It's also easy to get this on Solo Challenge 6 and 8 on easy.

The easiest way i found to do this was to play challenge 3 on normal and pick up the sparkplugs in the safehouse and then pick up the sten gun and kill all the zombies. Just kill all the zombies and pick up ammo as you kill them. The zombies stop spawning after it hits day time again so you just have to kill all the zombies left over and then proceed to the plane and put the sparkplugs in.

You could also sit by the plane on the dock and shoot the zombies and when you run out of ammo just switch to your machete and kill zombies so you can grab some ammo and continue to shoot. Credit to Calex dEUS

Tips for "S" Rank
Get towards the end of the game before attempting this because your armor helps you from losing health and helps add to your score
Try to not lose any health (Armor helps a lot)
Accuracy isn't to important but when theres not that many zombies try to get as many hits as possible without missing
Get the Fresh meet and wait until the zombie deer gets there and then throw it in the safe house and you can just light him up

Overall this isnt hard at all (I got it 1st try) and you dont need to have a lot of armor but its recommended. I hope this helped and if theres something i missed or you want me to add just comment down below and ill try to fix it as fast as possible.

Thought this didn't unlock for me as I got an S on my 1st try too on the level you suggested and nothing. Might be worth adding it doesn't unlock until after you press A on the ranking screen to continue back to the challenge select.

Oh I found it easier to manage the horde standing next to the plane on the dock switching to machete when I ran out of bullets and moving up to get more.

Can you not do these solo? I keep getting matched up with ass holes that don't know what to do.

You can do it on single player. Just do local game and then challenge mode and choose 1 player and then challenge 3 on normal and you can go for this achievement.

I can't even complete Challenge 3 let alone get an S or no damage etc. It seems like zombies just keep respawning so I can't put the spark plugs in. Do they stop respawning at some point or something?

I think the best answer is to watch some of the online videos of the S rank runs, and then it's also very much RNG.

Im glad you got it. It seems like a lot of people are having trouble with it, but thats the problem with achievements that are heavily based on luck.

Eu também consegui no Desafio 6 na primeira tentativa no Easy. Usei apenas flechas com headshots na maioria das vezes. Consegui 96% de acurácia.
I also got in Challenge 6 on the first attempt at Easy. I only use arrows with headshots most of the time. I got 96% accuracy.

Got it before seeing this guide but this is how I did it, so upvote for you. I didn't really have a problem with ammo but it depends a little on luck I suppose. During the day I kept letting it aim in to get headshots since you have to for the armored guys anyway.

Rank is directly tied to your score.
3500+ is an S rank.
3000 to 3500 is an A.
2500 to 3000 is a B.

Those are solo scores. The thresholds increase if you’re playing co-op.

Challenges are easier after you’ve played the story since you maintain all of your skills from leveling up and any armor you have equipped on your story character.

Scores seem to be based on two things: accuracy and health lost. It doesn’t seem to matter how many zombies you kill or how long you take. Difficulty doesn’t seem to matter.

I found challenge 6 on easy to be the easiest way to get an S rank. Line up your head shots and take your time so you don’t lose much health and you should have no problem.

There are various factors that determine your overall final score and grade - accuracy, damage taken, zombies killed and how long it took to complete the challenge. I found the easiest ones to get an S ranking on were challenge four on easy or normal, challenge six on easy, normal or ironman and challenge eight on easy. Challenge six is probably the easiest and most straightforward for this.

Just like in the version for ps 3, the easiest tests are numbered 1 and 3. The main condition is to score as many points as possible and take minimal damage. The trophy can be obtained by playing on any difficulty. I went through it on easy
