How to unlock the Piercing Light achievement in Warface: Breakout - Definitive Guide

Description is misleading. You need to get 10 kills while YOU are blind. So I went with a similar strategy as I did for the No Scope achievement, going for flanks.

Flashes are available on both sides for 200 CR a round, buy one every round as you will need to flash yourself. Trying to rely on an enemy flashing you and then killing them is not practical. You want to flank an enemy, throw a flash in their direction that you can clearly see, line up the shot and as soon as your screen goes white start firing. The closer you are to the enemy the easier it will be. You may get lucky with afk players but this is pretty rare. If you did it correctly you will see a notification in the top right corner with your name and banner saying you got a “blind kill.” This is what we are going for. I recommend playing on Casual.

On the first round of each side you can afford the auto pistol (third pistol for either side) and a flash. For the rest of the rounds I prefer an SMG because there is a lot of ammo and little recoil for a decent price.

To check your progress from the games home screen go to >Profile > Challenges > Special > Flash Bang Theory. Remember you only need 10.

Anyway this is a very annoying and somewhat luck based achievement but good luck and keep at it.

*According to comments this may take longer than expected because the achievement is buggy.

I don’t think you need to be blinded, as I have 11 progress towards my flash bang theory challenge and no achievement

I'm at 10/20 no cheev so I guess I'll rely on the numbers people have reached in the comments. Another 60+ wins to go anyway.

Okay mine just popped up 16 blinded kills. Just a warning to other people to keep being persistent, I used heavy machine gun while flashing myself around groups of enemies on TDM. Was getting around 3-5 each game.

Currently at 17 with no achievement. Will keep posted. Hopefully I get it before I get the badge...

UPDATE: I got it at 18 out of 20 for the Blind Theory badge. Good luck everyone
Also, what I did was run to the opposing spawn point and look for anyone that is AFK. Sometimes you can get a couple matches in a row before they're kicked.
