How to unlock the Ramhorn achievement in Transformers: War for Cybertron - Definitive Guide

This achievment can be earnt in about 15 seconds easily from start to finish, without needing boosting partners, without having to search for EMP grenades, and without having to do it in multiplayer.

The only requisite is that you have finished the Decipticon campaign up to the last mission.

Select easy, and load up Chapter IV - The Death of Hope, Checkpoint - Terminal Ambush.

Select Soundwave as your character. He has the leader vehicle with ram, despite being the scientist class.

As soon as the checkpoint loads, walk 10 steps down the steps. Right in front of you is a set of 3 EMP grenades.

Turn right, there is a door 10 steps ahead of you. Open it.

Inside are lots of cloakers.

As the Ram is not a one shot kill always, shoot the barrel right in front of you. This will damage the cloakers, but not kill them. Toss your EMP grenade to roughly where the barrel was and you will see 3-4 cloakers stunned (and at low health 5meters ahead).

*Please note, so that the AI will not charge into the room and start killing things, shoot the barrel as soon as the door opens, then toss the emp grenade as soon as you stop firing. This way you will have everything done before your team-mates join the battle. - Thanks to McDurbin for that.

Hit transform (LS), press boost (LT) and then tap ram (RB).

Achievment done, in a grand total of 15 seconds.

Please vote positive if you like, my first solution on here!

Well for anyone that hasn't finished the Deceptacon campaign up to the last mission this is useless. Also lets say you miss a cloaker, then it's gonna take like 30 - 45 seconds with a reload of the chapter. :P

Due to the spawning of the cloakers, there is a group of 3-4 that get stunned by the EMP. You only need to stun one and hit it, and if you throw the grenade at the barrel as directed then you're guaranteed to hit at least 1.

And if you've not finished the Decipticon campaign, I don't get why people would worry about this achievment in particular when the campaign is still to do. Gives a lot more points and a lot more achievments just to play through the story, than grind out single achievments one by one.

Great Solution. Took me 2 tries, with the first failing because I couldn't remember the grenade button. Second try - boom, easy as that. Thumbs up.

Just got it. You should mention in your guide that you should shoot the barrel as soon as the door opens and then toss the emp grenade right after. If you wait till you see cloakers then the AI will have entered the room and will ruin it for you.

If you want to boost this achievement load up a private multiplayer game. Invite a friend, one of you has to select a scout and the other a leader. Meet up somewhere and weaken the scout to a low health. Back the leader up far enough away that he wont get hit by the emp nade. Use the scout to emp grenade himself then stand still and let the leader ram into him. Switch roles and repeat and you both get the achieve.

To earn this achievement the Ram-kill is done when boosting as a truck and hitting RB to do a dash forward in the direction you're driving. Simply toss an EMP grenade at an enemy and while he's floating stunned press RS to switch to vehicle mode LT to dash and RB to Ram-kill the enemy will blow up awarding you an achievement. Use Soundwave for he has the Ram ability.

I was first able to get this achievement on the 3rd decepticon mission. (you'll want to choose Soundwave as your character because he is a truck)

About 10-20 minutes into the mission (or sooner) you'll come across your first autobot snipers for this mission. There is an elevated bridge in this area with some regular autobots beneath it and if you've scavanged for weapons up to this point you should have EMP grenades (just check behind corners for grenade crates and such, it's still way early in the mission).

Simply line yourself up with the autobots beneath the bridge at a good distance away, throw the grenade, transforms into the truck, boost with the left trigger and ram with the right bumper.

It should kill him, but if it doesnt, the entrance to the room your in is your last checkpoint so you can revert to that if you miss and run out of grenades. (do it on easy for the least effort, and if your on easy you can pretty much ignore the snipers and just run under the bridge before your team mates kill everything.)

Hope this helps!

Simply toss an EMP grenade at an enemy and while he's floating stunned, press to switch to vehicle mode, to boost , and to Ram-kill. The enemy will blow up awarding you an achievement. Soundwave has the Ram ability.
