Top 3 FiNN LMG Challenge Tips
3. Track ‘em Down. Whether you’re fighting at a distance or up close, this loadout competes. High Alert and Tracker combine for superb situational awareness, with Double Time giving you the added tactical sprint needed to catch up to foes on the run. Switch to your pistol for faster movement, and if you need a diversion, toss your smoke grenade and rush in for the melee kill.
Primary Weapon: LMG of choice (mandatory)
Secondary Weapon: Pistol (for faster movement speed)
Perk 1: Double Time (to catch fleeing enemies)
Perk 2: High Alert (to avoid getting flanked)
Perk 3: Tracker (to more easily find players)
Lethal Equipment: Molotov Cocktail (to briefly shut down enemy pathways)
Tactical Equipment: Smoke Grenade (smoke the enemy position and run in for the melee kill)
Note that you must get the melee kill while holding your LMG. The Combat Knife or other melee weapons will not count toward the required kill, even if there is an LMG in your loadout.
2. Play Small Maps. Having trouble closing in on the enemy? Choose a playlist with small maps to up your encounter rate and reduce the distance between enemies as much as possible. Melee kill in Shipment? No problem.
1. Plunder Melee. Warzone players can get some great melee opportunities in Plunder. You’re already starting with a full loadout, so you meet the LMG requirement right away, and with multiple spawns per match, your chances of getting a melee kill are greater than in Battle Royale.
See you online. Stay Frosty.
