How to unlock the Pull Harder! achievement in Titanfall - Definitive Guide

This is a video/text guide to unlock the Pull Harder achievement in Titanfall, for 25g.

To unlock Pull Harder!, you must kill an ejecting pilot with the plasma railgun.

The Plasma railgun is a Titan weapon that is unlocked at level 12. This achievement can be made easier by killing 10 enemy Titans with it to unlock the instant shot mod, then equip this.

Basically, when a pilot ejects you want to lead your shot (depending on his direction of travel) and try to estimate where the pilot will be when your shot lands.

I made a video that shows it better than words. -

No, on this video I don't lead, but thats because I don't need too :) As I said in the video, I got 'lucky' with how the pilot ejected, he basically fell into my lap. 9/10 out of though, this won't happen and you will need to lead in order to make the shot.

Similar happened to me on the swampland map, there was a duel between 5 titans and just noticed 1 ejecting quickly aimed up and shot and the pulled curved down to meet him as he went out of line of sight. The achievement is heavily luck but also alot of time to get good with the weapon

I don't think it is necessarily glitched as this guy ^ got the achievement on the day he posted this - the pop must have just been delayed!

Great shot in the video, Lavindathar - gonna really try to do this over the next few nights! Thanks for the advice!

Pull Harder! achievement in Titanfall worth 25G

This achievement is for killing an ejecting Pilot with the plasma railgun.

This can be done in any game mode. For this I recommend you play Last Titan Standing and have the "instashot" mod unlocked and equipped for this. It will make all your shots insta-kills versus pilots, without having to charge up the weapon.

The best technique I found for this was to be very close to where the pilot ejected. All most under his launch so he would try to land on your Titan on his way down. Just aim straight up and and line up your shot. Don't forget to compensate for his traveling speed if you're aiming from a distance.

Now I have heard mixed stories on this achievement. Some people say you have to shoot them before they start to descend and some people say it's before they do an air jump. I personally hit my mark when he was in the peak of the arch. I find that to be the easiest mark since they almost pause there for a brief moment.

This by far is one of the hardest achievements to get playing legit. So, if you do get it legit, give yourself a pat on the back. You earned it.

Got this legit just a few minutes ago. Instant Shot makes most of the difference, just make sure to lead your target a touch since the shot has kind of a slow travel time.

The other thing that helped a lot was a clear blue sky to see the target against, so the map you're playing on also makes a difference.

Quick solution for those who want to boost the pull harder achievement (got this achievemnt 05/21 in a boosting session) The easiest way to get the achievement is on the BONEYARD map. There is a zip line that goes from HARDPOINT C going towards A. Have one titan going for the pull harder achievement stand towards the bottom of the zipline and the one ejecting at the other end of the zip line. Have the pilot that is being killed eject and land on the zipline going towards the other titan. The titan with the plasma gun lines up the shot by putting the crosshairs in line with the zip line and shooting the pilot as he/she is coming towards you. As long as the pilot never touches the ground and is shot while on the zip line, this will count as the plasma gooser! This can be done on any zip line, but the BONEYARD zip line from C to A is by far the easiest as it lines up perfectly for the shot. Good luck!

EDIT: This has to be done in public matches and can NOT be completed in a private match. Boosting sessions are located on the right hand side of the titanfall page on this site. The achievement will unlock at the end of the match when it shows the game summary.

if you go to the main titanfall page that lists all of the achievements, on the right hand side there is a section for gaming sessions. Click on the gaming session to see the achievements that are being boosted. Just join the session that is boosting this achievement. If you dont find a session boosting this achievement, you can create your own.

The pilot can be killed on the way up or down for a gooser to count. The pilot just cant touch anything other than a zip line on the way down. Ive had people eject, touch a wall or tree on the way up, then I kill them and it doesnt count as a gooser. When you successfully kill the pilot it will say "airborne kill" in the description. I have tested this on zip lines on Lagoon, Boneyard, Airbase. Works on every zip line.

Okay this isn't as much as a guide as it is merely advice for how to pull this annoying as hell achievement off.

Now obviously you need to kill an ejecting pilot with the plasma railgun which is already asking alot since that thing is annoying as hell to aim at targets who are on the ground.

Now what you will want to do to get this achievement is........

1. Try to stay a nice distance away from Titans where the pilot is ejecting so you have a good line of aim. But don't be too far as this will mess up your shot in terms of overall distance.
2. Make sure there is enough ammo in your gun, 3 should be more than enough in the time you get. The amount of times I had to reload as I aimed got annoying or pulled off 1 shot only to reload during what would have been the second during a perfect aiming opportunity.
3. Do not worry about having to get the faster railgun shot, in the video I got this with the charge and you can fire just as fast but it will do less damage so take this into account. But also don't let it worry you. You can do it with OR without the precharged shot.
4. Lead your aim with the target, trust me the amount of times I missed by an inch because I miss timed by a microsecond during the leading process. Patience is the key.
5. Try to hit the pilot when they reach they're highest point as they will essentially stop in the air for a brief moment, this is an excellent time to fire.
6. Good bloody luck.

Video below showing how I finally got this.

If you are going to boost this achievement, the boosting method described by TH3 3PIC V1KING is probably the way to go.

Personally, I decided to go for this legit considering I am Gen 8 and had A LOT of games to burn through for wins (100 of them angry).

Obviously you need the Plasma Railgun (and preferably the instant shot upgrade) for this achievement, and you need to kill an ejecting pilot. Some people say you need to kill them when they are going upward, but I can confirm that is not the case. I got a pilot after the peak of his ascent despite the plasma railguns annoying aim curvature bullshit that it likes to pull, which brings me to my point of this solution:

The plasma railgun IS NOT ACCURATE AT ALL.

It is completely random over distance - at first I thought respawn was going for authenticity and having the plasma blast curve with whatever planet's gravity you are fighting on. I soon learned, after watching my bullets basically fling off into the atmosphere, that was not the case.

And I tried EVERYTHING: standing right under an ejecting pilot, giving some space, tracking their trajectory, just shooting wildly after getting immensely frustrated...angry...

Point is, you are probably not going to get this in your first go. You will find a lot of people have the auto-eject ability active, which means they go invis on their way up (making it practically impossible to shoot them with an inaccurate gun). Some jackasses like to just hop out of their dying titan instead of ejecting. And even when you have the perfect setup, and a pilot ejecting just the way you want him to, your bullets magically veer off into the distance as though it is desperately looking for JFK roll.

For those that do not wish to boost, obviously Last Titan Standing is your best bet, and just like with normal goosers, you need to be an active participant in the fight: hanging back and letting your team get slaughtered while you are waiting for an ejecting enemy will typically result in the other team using you in a re-enactment of the shower scene in American History X.

I got this on one of the new maps: Dig Site. And it was BE-A-U-TIFUL - like the planets aligned just so and, for at least one shot, my bullet did not sway to the extreme that I had witnessed so many times before. I caught the guy on his way down, and then openly wept tears of joy.

BE PERSISTENT. And know you have plenty of time to get this before you hit Gen 10: 100 wins for Gen 8 and 50 MVPs for Gen 9 will keep you plenty busy AND create enough opportunities to get this done.

Not sure how well this would work, but my autotitan once shot an ejecting pilot and gave me progress towards the "Pull!" achievement and it gave me an idea:

Equip the Spitfire LMG with the Slammer mod as well as the Guardian Chip kit (makes your autotitan more accurate), and Equip your Titan with the Railgun with the instant shot mod. Put your titan in follow mode and go rodeo-crazy, and when the pilot ejects let your autotitan do the dirty work. Again, this is not tested but I know my autotitan kill counted towards the other "Pull!" achievement, so let me know if this works!

This can be done in any level as long as the gametype permits Titans. You will need the Plasma Railgun which unlocks at level 12 for your Titan and the Instant Shot upgrade that unlocks after 10 Titan Kills. Once you acquired the weapon eqip it in your loadout and go in a match and destroy an occupied Titan. When you see the enemy shoot up into the air, aim for him and take your shot. It is better if the enemy doesn't cloak on eject but you have no control over that. The achievement will pop after the match has completed.

Pull Harder was the last in a long list of Titanfall achievements for me to get. And I found that a couple of things make it easier.
1. When that pilot is about to eject, I want him to eject towards me so I position myself as best I can to be right in front of him.
2. The sun can shine pretty bright on some maps and will ruin your vision so try to avoid shooting into it.
3. Track your targets ejection path. As he nears/reaches his apex zoom in.
4. As you've tracked your target line them up in your sights and take your shot.
Also I recommend using insta shot in case of a miss you can still get off another shot.
5. 7-10 seconds of fist punping, jumping. yelling and other celebratory fun are encouraged.
Good luck pilots. Hope tis helps.

After a Titan is doomed, the pilot has a chance to eject and as their Titan dies, hopefully land and continue to fight on foot. Your goal for this achievement is to kill them with the Plasma Railgun before they land.

Note that in order to move up from Gen 5 to Gen 6, you will need to do this five times (although not necessarily with the Plasma Railgun) so there is no need to deliberately work on it until that point.

Boosting method:
Start up a 1x1 game in any mode except Last Titan Standing and have both players bring in a Titan with the person working on this achievement armed with the Plasma Railgun. Have the Titans facing each other about 4 body lengths apart and the profile working on this achievement should reload if necessary and aim up at about a 60-70 degree angle. The profile that is going to (hopefully!) die should eject by pushing and then three times. At this point, it is merely necessary to hit the pilot before they hit the ground. The Plasma Railgun shot is not instantaneous, so a good method is to aim slightly under the pilot and then shoot as they pause at the apex of their ejection jump. Your shot will arrive as they start to fall and if all goes well, disintegrate them.

Non-Boosting method:
Join a Campaign or Attrition game for the most opponents. Ideally, you will want to be in a full room with 12 players. Ensure you have a Titan setup with the Plasma Railgun, and then lurk... Lots of Titans die as a rule, and most of the pilots successfully eject. Try to stick near other friendly Titans and help them out, but as soon as an enemy Titan is doomed, back off and aim up, even if you are getting shot at. Reload frequently so that you always have ammunition ready.

Achik is a coincidence, it depends on your luck or boost. It is most likely to get an achievement in battles with titans.

This is the most difficult trophy!!! I actually got it twice (I helped a friend knock it out), the advice is to play in a group where there are more newcomers, you also need to open the instant shot modification on PLASMAGUN, and then like in Call of Duty on a quick scope sniper (sight and then shoot) that’s the only way I succeeded twice, in my video you can see how I tried to kill while aiming, and then quick scope and everything worked out, and don’t panic, the trophy will drop after the end of the round. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHj2...2SOd6XfLWDlLqg

I just knocked out this achik without boost, not an accident, as they write here!
on gen 3, you need to kill 50 titans with this weapon, this is where you can shoot and get used to it, played the “last of the titans” mode (it didn’t work in others before), killed two pilots after ejecting in a round!) well, shoot 10 , so it’s not a problem at all with a machine gun (ho-16 autocannon)
in general, play, shoot and everything will work out, the main thing is not to rush and understand how the projectile flies.

The weapon has a peculiarity: it seems to shoot slower. Therefore, aim approximately at the enemy's feet or a little lower (depending on how far away you are standing) to hit the target accurately.
