How to unlock the Death From Above achievement in Titanfall - Definitive Guide

First it's worth taking note that this is for not killing 5 enemies all at once. This is a cumulative achievement, meaning you can get one kill at a time during different games. You can also kill any type of enemy which includes the AI controlled Grunts and Spectres.

This achievement can be done early on, but it's recommend that you get to level 16 in order to unlock the Warpfall Transmitter Tier 2 Kit, which will allow you to drop your Titan in about 2-3 seconds, which is much faster than normal.

Next you will have to play a game of Attrition, Hardpoint or Capture the Flag, and score enough points in order to earn a Titan. Keep in mind that burn cards can be used to accelerate this process if you are going for this achievement and want to call in as many Titans in a game as possible.

Once the Titan is earned, it is recommended that you run around the map until you find a group of Grunts that aren't moving, somewhere in the open. Ideally, you’ll want to find a group that just landed in a pod as they will emerge together. Use the to drop your Titan while aimed at them. If the Titan lands directly on an enemy, you will get an “Auto-Titan Kill” show up on screen and make progress towards this achievement.


Alternatively you can try to drop your titan onto another Titan during a fight. If the enemy Titan is rodeo’d and kneeling it will be an easy hit, however enemy Pilots will still have a good chance at survival and escape even after impact and you’ll only end up with some assist points, so this method can be a little risky. Also, if you just play enough games, your bound to get 5 by sheer luck alone, so keep that in mind!

As an addition to the dropping a titan onto another titan, If you see someone spawn their titan in you can drop your titan on top of theirs and you'll have a fairly good chance at taking out both them and their titan since they won't have time to get in and move before your's touches down.

It's worth to notice that you can drop the titan or Mortar Titans in Frontier Def. You just need to me higher to increase accuracy of the drop, aim at the ground below Mortar Titan and press cn_down

I found an alternate way to get this. What everyone above said, but when your titan is ready, do not summon it just yet. Rodeo an enemy titan, but do not try to destroy it, then call your titan and your titan will land on the titan you are rodeoing. Rinse and repeat 5x.

This can be done on any level in the game as long as the gametype allows Titanfalls. You need to drop a Titan on 5 enemies. The trick is to get the Warpfall Transmitter at level 16 for the Titan Tier 2 kit. It will greatly reduce the time it takes for you titan to spawn, which will make it easier to hit enemies before they move away. Hitting other Titans are your best target due to their size but make sure an enemy is inside and it's not A.I. controlled.

This may happen just through normal game play. Note also that to advance from generation 8 to generation 9, you will need to kill 50 enemies via Titanfall, so you will absolutely unlock this at that point if you haven't already.

Boosting Method:
Start a game of Capture the Flag with two players, and shoot all the grunts and the opposing pilot until you have the ability to call down a Titan. There are many burn cards that will speed this process up if desired. Have the enemy pilot stand in an open spot, then aim at their feet and press to get one kill. As soon as your Titan drops and kills one or more enemies, enter it and have it self destruct by pressing followed by 3 presses of . This will ensure you immediately start working on earning another Titan. Repeat as needed. Note that this is likely slower than the non-boosting method detailed below.

Non-Boosting Method:
This can be done in any game mode, but you will have a lot more immobile enemies in Frontier Defense games than any other mode. You can drop a Titan on Mortar Titans when they are shooting at the Harvester, or on groups of grunts and/or Spectres when they are close to and shooting at the Harvester. As soon as your Titan drops and kills one or more enemies, enter it and have it self destruct by pressing followed by 3 presses of . This will ensure you immediately start working on earning another Titan. Repeat as needed until the achievement unlocks.
