How to unlock the Ambusher achievement in Project Winter - Definitive Guide
Can only be done while playing the new DLC map.
During the match a blackout will occur, it is random but guaranteed atleast 1 blackout event per match. You simply have to convert a player to traitor while this event is happening. A blackout for the traitor is when the screen is all red, a blackout for the survivors is when the screen is pitch black and you can only see yourself unless you have a torch.
Now this will be harder if you are a whisperer traitor than if you are a demon traitor. Even harder if you are doing it in a public match.
Demon traitor - simply knock down a survivor, can't be a yeti or hunter, both are immune to conversion. Then while they are down you will get an option to revive or convert them using your D-Pad while standing over them.
Whisperer traitor - the reason I say this will be harder is because of the timing, but easier of course if you are boosting. If you are a whisperer, your ability can be used every 2 minutes(charges faster while collecting resources) and depending if you use it on 1 or more players depends how far their influence meter fills up. If you try to convert and the survivor you choose has an influence meter, which shows above their head, at say 75%, you will not be able to convert them. So as a whisperer you have to use your ability on the same person until their influence meter is almost full then use it again during a blackout to complete the conversion. Again, Yeti and Hunter are immune to conversion but you will see who has these roles as a stop sign will show above their head instead of an influence meter.
