How to unlock the Trigonometry Novice achievement in PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS - Definitive Guide

Edit: I do not play this game anymore so I am not up-to-date on which weapon appears on which of the new map. Or whether these achievements can be obtained by playing the TDM mode. If you leave a comment with any feedback I'll gladly update the solution though.

There's not much to this, but here are the Valid weapons:

-Kar98k
-M24
-AWM (only found in carepackages)
-Winchester 94 (Not found on Erangel)

Knockdowns do not count, however headshotting a downed enemy that you yourself knocked down, does count.

As for most of the [kill x amount of players with x weapon or equipment] achievements, you can down an enemy by any means, so long as you finish the player off with whatever you're trying to progress the achievement of

Edit: Anyone who downvotes, please be so kind as to tell me why so I can improve the solution accordingly.

-VSS Worked for me, however multiple people have said it doesn't. Don't count on it working.

Didn’t know the Winchester counted as an SR. Thanks!

Bit of a late response but yes, I found that out when I had no choice but to pick it up in the Pecado stadium. It’s not the best, but it might be useful for those that like to kill afkers for their achievement progress, as it spawns rather commonly

the win98 is not as bad as you think got 2 heads with it in one match one at over 200 meters no scope ( probably a lucky shot)

It’s alright on its own, it’s just bad relative to other options

Idk about you, but I can only pop achievements on Erangel. I would add that as a note for any guides you write regarding this game. Miramar is broken for all achievements and Sanhok sometimes counts towards weapon kills for me randomly.

That’s just your experience. Miramar has worked for me consistently except for my VERY FIRST game since the update

Edit: Considering I mention the Winchester 94 counts, that means Miramar does work. As for Sanhok, usually works, sometimes it breaks but I just restarted my game if it does break

I've popped achievements on all three maps, but have the most trouble with progress tracking on Sanhok. If I notice something isn't tracking I'll restart the game.

I just killed 8 AFKers with the VSS headshots and got progress towards silenced kills but not towards this... weird

Poopdog M60Riot probably because it is a silenced sniper as standard

VSS does not work for me. It counts for Agent 48 and Marksman achievements, but not for Trigonometry. VSS is accounted as DMR for the game (I would like to remember to all of you the Sanhok event rewards. If any of you did some kills using the VSS during the event, you should remember that they were accounted for the DMR challenges but not for the sniper ones).

Thanks everyone for the input. Weird how the VSS worked for me and not for most others.

Hey. Just a quick note:
In your solution you state:
however headshotting a downed enemy that you yourself knocked down, does count
This is true if the player is knocked by your own team, but if you can see a downed player, downed by another team, you can still register the kill (via headshot) on them and gain progress towards the achievement.

(Gotta love kill-stealing)

Yes that is true. I didn’t wanna make it too confusing so I didn’t mention that. Also when you down someone, and your teammate finishes him off with a grenade, it credits you with a grenade kill. Was told about that after I completed the game, however it might help if your friends have grenades and you don’t

Just a quick note, Event Modes do not count towards any weapon achievement. The most recent event was with the Kar98 and a 4x scope. I got at least 29 kills across 5 games with head shots and no progress was made. My friends have the same thing. I dont know if this is intentional or not but just be wary.

It's intentional. The only achievement that tracks while playing Events is the 1,000 kills.

Simply kill enemies with headshots using the following guns:

  • AWM (Carepackage only)
  • Karabiner 98 Kurz
  • M24
  • Mini 14
  • Mk14 EBR (Carepackage only)
  • QBU
  • SKS
  • SLR
  • VSS Vintorez
  • Winchester Model 1894

Possibly the easiest way to get this is when landing with AFK players, check nearby buildings and houses for one of the above guns and then return to the AFK players and kill them with it.
