*Players cannot easily be killed by simply driving into them - this achievement is easiest if a player's shields are down, or if you actually manage to land on them with the mongoose. | |||
*A basic tactic for this achievement is to find a Mongoose in an open area, like on Sandtrap (only on Legendary brawl) or High Ground, and put the Mongoose at high speed at another player. | *A basic tactic for this achievement is to find a Mongoose in an open area, like on Sandtrap (only on Legendary brawl) or High Ground, and put the Mongoose at high speed at another player. | ||
*One of the easiest ways to achieve this is to play on [[Isolation]], and drive a [[Mongoose]] into the [[Shotgun]] spawn point. People taking cover there are sitting ducks. If you are lucky, some nice players will notice that you are trying to get the achievement and let you drive right into them. A secondary way is to drive at two players dueling and splatter the winner of the duel. | *One of the easiest ways to achieve this is to play on [[Isolation]], and drive a [[Mongoose]] into the [[Shotgun]] spawn point.

*Another way on [[High Ground]] is to just take a [[Mongoose]], (which are always in ample supply), and circle the base, out onto the beach, circle back and drive through the tunnels (which ever one you choose), and back into the base. Chances are, is that you'll get someone by surprise, and get the achievement. The trick is to never stop. This lowers the chances of you being killed, and just make enough of a course change so that your always pointed towards your target. | *Another way on [[High Ground]] is to just take a [[Mongoose]], (which are always in ample supply), and circle the base, out onto the beach, circle back and drive through the tunnels (which ever one you choose), and back into the base.

*The reason that this achievement is so hard is because only a head on hit with a Mongoose will splatter a shielded opponent. A great way to get this achievement is playing [[Crazy King]] on [[Isolation]] or [[Boundless]], as all the players will be grouped up and will likely have low shields. | *The reason that this achievement is so hard is because only a head on hit with a Mongoose will splatter a shielded opponent.
