How to unlock the Ducking Awesome achievement in PAYDAY 2: CRIMEWAVE EDITION - Definitive Guide

Get 3 headshot kills with 1 shot while using the Donald’s Horizontal Leveller Barrel EXT.

Easy way to unlock the Achievement:

First you need to buy and equip the Locomotive 12G Shotgun from the Secondary Weapons Menu for $226.400 and the Donald’s Horizontal Leveller Mod (Barrel EXT) for $7.200.
You can use most of the other Shotguns (check list below).

I also used the 000 Buckshot Mod, Accuracy Mod, LED Combo, Rubber Grip, Speculator Sight, 2 Piece Stock to boost the accuracy & stability.

Make sure you have good Armor (Combined Tactical Vest) and choose a contract on NORMAL difficulty with A.I turned off (Bank Job works well).

Soon as you start the Heist kill all the Civilians and Security Guards and wait for The Police to arrive.
Let the SWAT guys group together (3 or more) and take a shot. If you only killed 2... well, try again wink



You don’t have to finish the Heist for the Achievement to unlock.

Hope it helps toast

UPDATE #1:

I just noticed that you can also use some of the other Shotguns... most of them facepalm
Primary Shotguns: Raven, Steakout, Breaker, IZHMA, M1014, Reinfeld 880, Predator 12G.
Secondary Shotguns: Street Sweeper, The Judge, Goliath 12G, GSPS 12G.
(The Judge, recommend by EggplantMan69)

UPDATE #2:

Looks like the Achievement and most of the new DLC's are buggy as fuck and don't unlock for many people.

PLZ use the link below and open a ticket with 505 Support toast

UPDATE #3:

Looks like some people have managed to unlock the Achievement by killing STANDARD COPS, NOT ARMORED SWAT COPS... if that works for you please let me know.

UPDATE #4:

Looks like Silly found a solution for the bugged Achievements and posted it in the forums.

Ok, this achievement was a little frustrating to get, but I found a way. I tried on the bank heist for a while and wasn't having luck. I tried on Rats to get 3 cops to cuff themselves at the top of the stairs, but when clipped inside one another the shot wouldn't get through all their heads. But I finally got a good solution (and of course I had to play offline):

After the bank heist you may get an escape that is in the city with a park in the middle of the map. As soon as the escape loads there are lots of normal cops standing around and not moving. I was able to run out and line up a good shot. The good thing is, if you don't get three you can just restart the escape and the cops will be standing in the same spots.

Was having trouble getting this to pop but managed to get it on three of the regular cops that arrive at the very start of four stores (was only doing it to try and get the park escape :P). They seem much easier to register hits on than the swat guys. Did this countless times on surrendered enemies and it wouldn't unlock.

I spent hours trying this to no avail. Finally downloaded it on my One and did SillyJiggy's note for the offline and online trick and it worked first try. I love glitched achievements

Alright this one was a bit of a pain in the ass but I learned a few useful things that helped me get the achievement.

1.) You absolutely CANNOT get this achievement with AP rounds as your ammunition type. I did it several times with those equipped and the achievement would not pop. I used the 000 buckshot instead and got it on the first try.

2.) The easiest way I found to line up 3 heads was to use the "confident perk" to intimidate cops. I managed to intimidate 3 cops to get on their knees right next to one another and took my time lining up their heads.

3.) Use the Electric brass knuckles. Some cops won't get intimidated right away if you just yell at them, so punching them once with the knuckles usually hurts them enough to then submit to your yelling.

4.) This can probably be done on any level but I hid in a room with only one entrance/exit. This way I could try and time the intimidation so that cops would be as close as possible to one another.

Hope this helps. Cheers.

So I was having trouble following the other guides as they didn't help me very much, but heres what I did to get the achievement pretty fast

Raven shotgun with only the Donald's Horizontal Leveller attachment (Didnt use buckshot or anything else)

I also used the Electrical Brass Knuckles to make cops surrender more easily.

The mission I used was Bank heist: Cash (but any of the other variants work too)

Outside the front entrance of the bank, in an alley way to the right there will be some cops that jump over the fence, simply wait until one jumps over (hit them as they come over) and make them surrender.

Soon you will have 3 all sitting together, now finish them off :)

Heres my gameclip of getting the achievement:


As the other guides said, make sure to do the Offline/Online method to make sure you get the achievement.

Option #1:

You can make a shotgun with a Donald attachment through this video .
It is better to do a triple headshod on the Cook Off map on Normal, as in this video .

Option #2:

Take a Steakout 12G automatic shotgun with a Donald attachment (other attachments are optional).
We start the Locke: Birth of Sky contract from the DLC The Point Break Heist. There are many soldiers on the plane, all that remains is to “seize the moment” and shoot with a shotgun.
