Not a good tip to include in my opinion since it's encouraging players to be less useful. A better tip would be: "Spend more time near the front lines and engaging lone enemies with the Huntsman at close-medium range."

| − | *Also, I suspect it may be possible to get this achievement in a similar fashion to "Fire and Forget" achievement for the Pyro, because there have been times where Snipers I killed gained the achievement upon me dying from the Tribalman's Shiv bleed effect. --[[User:Flying Pyro|Flying Pyro]] 20:16, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

| − | :I can confirm this. I obtained this achievement last night using the Tribalman's Shiv. I was using the Awper Hand, Jarate, and Tribalman's Shiv.

| − | I have no idea if this is correct or not, but I achieved Dead Reckoning as a pyro by reflecting an arrow using airblast. Someone may need to test this theory to see if it was a fluke. [[User:House42|House42]] ([[User talk:House42|talk]]) 18:41, 10 August 2014 (GMT)

| − | If if this achievement has stopped counting as for me when I was on 6/10 it may be related to "watching it". Try deselecting it from "Show in HUD" on Achievements screen, worked for me. Already reported.

| − | ==Shooting The Breeze==
| |
| − | The how-to and difficulty is a little misleading. You can get this achievement with the kukri, which makes the achievement much easier to earn if you catch a spy cloaking after backstabbing a teammate and then hiding in a corner, (which is how I earned mine.) Sounds like it could do with a reworking here. --[[User:Bluedeanie|Bluedeanie]] 16:32, 18 August 2011 (PDT)

| − | *That's enough confirmation for getting the achievement via a melee weapon. I'll go over it shortly. [[User:InShane|InShane]] 01:33, 19 August 2011 (PDT)
| |
| − | *A sniper can get this by telefragging. I cloaked near an engineer's teleporter exit and intended to sap it. Before I could do this, the sniper in question came through, telefragged me and got the achievement (much to my chagrin and embarrassment...). [[User:House42|House42]] ([[User talk:House42|talk]]) 10:29, 28 August 2014 (PDT)
| |
| − | *Snipers can also get it by headshotting a Dead Ringer spy. I've given a good dozen sniper that achievement by staring at them waiting for them to set off the Dead Ringer. I'm assuming it has to be a headshot, maybe bodyshots work too --[[User:Barlakopofai|Barlakopofai]] ([[User talk:Barlakopofai|talk]]) 08:11, 19 April 2015 (PDT)

| − | Just tested this and you can get it from multiple taunts. I just received it from the SMG heal-click taunt, but others work to. Is this worth noting as the advice specifically says Primary weapon?[[User:MEDUNN|MEDUNN]] 04:38, 21 August 2011 (PDT)
| |
| − | :I recently changed it from "Sniper Rifle" to "primary weapon." If you've got confirmation that others work, go for it. [[User:InShane|InShane]] 10:57, 21 August 2011 (PDT) | |

| − | == Medieval mode ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Playing in medieval mode should make it easier to earn achievements related to melee and the huntsman. All other classes are restricted to melee weapons. When playing on defense on DeGroot Keep, a sniper has plenty of opportunity to shoot at enemies without getting shot at.
| |
| − | The achievement 'Shafted' (skewer tauntkill) is also very easy to earn in this scenario. The player must stand on the control point and time the attack just right. This is best done on the final point, for both teams. [[User:K-Raider NL|K-Raider NL]] 08:33, 26 January 2012 (PST)

| |
| − | | |
| − | I just [http://steamcommunity.com/id/ledzepmtg/stats/TF2?tab=achievements&agroup=sniper] got "Jarate Chop", but in a different manner than described.
| |
| − | | |
| − | It was 3v3, me and 2 others against 2 demos and a scout. I jarated a demo and a scout simultaneously, and killed them both with my bushwhaka. Later in that same life, people left the server, leaving me and the other demoman. I jarated and bushwhaka'd him, earning me the achievement. I wish I'd saved a replay.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Does this need to be tested before being added to the article? [[User:Ledzepmtg|Ledzepmtg]] 02:45, 9 April 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | :Hm...on release, the achievement required a triple kill off one Jarate. That is kind of ridiculous, so it might have been changed since then. So your scenario is: same life, same round, different Jarate targets? -- [[User:InShane|InShane]] 08:35, 9 April 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | | |
| − | I haven't gotten it and I've gotten a triple kill with jarate at least twice now. Is this just one of those bugged achievements, or what? --[[User:Bluedeanie|Bluedeanie]] 15:28, 1 July 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | | |
| − | NOTE: I tested it, and as it turns out it's tied to the default kukri. I made the adjustments to the page to reflect that. That might warrant a "very hard" difficulty rank, but I will let others decide. --[[User:Bluedeanie|Bluedeanie]] 21:13, 13 July 2012 (PDT)

| − | == Jarring Transition ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I got this achievement as a Pyro on the second stage of Goldrush on defense when the round started when I reflected an enemy Sniper's Jarate. Edited the page to reflect as such, just wanted to clarify that I have experienced this. Possibly a bug, but interesting nonetheless. -- [[User:Xanderkins|Xanderkins]] 22:23, 8 June 2012 (PDT)

| − | == The Last Wave ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The current description says "Taunt with any weapon", but that would mean that a melee taunt would achieve both The Last Wave and Be Polite, and it seems odd to get two taunt achievements with one taunt. Would you really get both at once? If not, then this should be changed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Any primary weapon should work, since all involve a hat-wave except the huntsman, and I can confirm that the huntsman works since that's how I unintentionally got this achievement. But I don't know about secondary or melee weapons... can anyone validate if these work or don't work? -- [[User:hydoc|hydoc]] 18:21, 7 October 2013 (PDT)

| − | | |
| − | == Be Polite & The Last Wave ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | There is a way to earn both of these achievements at the same time. I did it on one of my favorite servers, and got both achievements ([http://pixldrop.com/uploads/OKxCdYc7Md.png screenshot here], name is the same as my Wiki name). When I did this, it was completely accidental. The server '''''must''''' have the Goomba Stomp SourceMod plugin, though. The exact way I did it:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Start congaing and have a Pyro airblast you. When airblasted, strafe your way onto another enemy (using A or D) to Goomba Stomp them.
| |
| − | | |
| − | When I did it, the person who I Goomba Stomped was also congaing. Again, this was completely on accident. [[User:OptimalVorteX|OptimalVorteX]] ([[User talk:OptimalVorteX|talk]]) 13:22, 27 November 2014 (PST)
