Obtaining General achievements

Dynasty Win 20 games. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: Play until you have won 20 games. With a good team, this should happen in no time.

Flamethrower Set five enemies on fire in 30 seconds. Difficulty: Medium How to obtain: Thirty seconds is a relatively long time for combat. Aim for crowds of enemy players, especially at the beginning of rounds. If you are having trouble, have a Medic assist you with an ÜberCharge.

Grey Matter Get 25 headshots as a Sniper. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: Play on a map that give Snipers a clear view of the battlefield, such as 2Fort or Double Cross. Try to leave yourself less exposed and fire away, aiming for slow targets such as Heavies or Soldiers. Headshots from the Spy's Ambassador or even a Pyro's reflected Huntsman arrow count towards this achievement.

Hard to Kill Get five kills in a row without dying. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: This will happen incidentally after spending a reasonable amount of time playing. If you are inexperienced, it may be easier to use a combat class such as the Heavy or to play defensively as an Engineer.

Hardcore Accumulate 1000 total kills. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: This will occur incidentally after a modest amount of playtime. If you are having trouble obtaining kills, play as classes that specialize in offense, such as the Soldier or Pyro.

Head of the Class Play a complete round with every class. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: It is good to experiment with every class. Check each one off as you complete rounds to ensure none are missed. To achieve this quickly, it is recommended to play Arena, switching classes after each short round. Note that you cannot switch classes for the entire round and must be there from start to finish.

Impenetrable Defense Successfully defend Dustbowl without giving up a capture. Difficulty: Hard How to obtain: The initial Control Point on Dustbowl is much closer to the attacking team's respawn room than to that of the defending team. Without Teleporters from defending Engineers, the BLU attackers will usually swarm the defenders and capture the point before respawned reinforcements can arrive. To contribute to this, play as an Engineer, Heavy, or Demoman, defensive classes with great firepower.

Impossible Defense Successfully defend Gravel Pit without giving up a capture. Difficulty: Hard How to obtain: Due to the open nature of Gravel Pit, defending both Point A and Point B can be difficult. Defenses should be balanced; have Sentry Guns at both A and B, with offensive classes backing them up. Coordinate with allies, preferably with voice chat, to make sure neither base is overrun.

Lightning Offense Win Well in 5 minutes or less. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: The brief nature of Control Point matches ensures that this should happen incidentally when playing with a marginally effective team.

Master of Disguise Trick an opposing Medic into healing you. Difficulty: Medium How to obtain: To avoid drawing suspicion from the enemy team, act as an enemy; occasionally charge towards your own team and switch your disguised weapon often. Although you only need a quick burst of healing from the enemy Medic, you can attempt to obtain the "FYI I am a Spy" or "Insurance Fraud" achievements afterward.

Nemesis Get five Revenge kills. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: You will eventually be dominated by enemy players without trying. To ensure a revenge kill, choose classes that are effective against those your nemesis favors.

Powerhouse Offense Win 2Fort with a shutout. Difficulty: Medium How to obtain: The layout of 2Fort requires coordinated team pushes to secure the intelligence. It helps to set up a good defense early to prevent opponents from obtaining even one early capture. Consider playing as an Engineer for the round.

Ready for Duty Complete each class to unlock the next. Difficulty: Very Easy How to obtain: To obtain this achievement, simply complete every training course. A dialog box indicating Training Mode will appear when you first play the game.

Relentless Offense Win Hydro without giving up a capture. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: The multiple small maps of Territorial Control mean that a coordinated team can efficiently shut down the enemy and quickly seize each point.

Riftwalker Kill an enemy within 5 seconds of you traveling through an Engineer's teleporter. Difficulty: Medium How to obtain: The closer an Engineer's Teleporter is to enemy lines, the easier it will be to get a kill after traveling. Use a class with good medium to long-range capabilities, such as the Soldier or Sniper. This achievement will be obtained if you telefrag an enemy or kill an enemy after walking through the Teleporter Exit. If you perform this as a Heavy, you will also obtain "Five Second Plan," a corresponding achievement for the Heavy.

Sentry Gunner Accumulate 10 sentry gun kills with a single sentry. Difficulty: Medium How to obtain: Build your Sentry Gun in a place that is well-travelled and fairly unexposed, such as the courtyards in 2Fort or certain alcoves in Dustbowl. Enlist the aid of allied Engineers and Pyros to prevent Spies from destroying your buildings. Do not build in locations that allow the Sentry Gun to be picked off at range by classes such as the Demoman or Sniper. The ability to haul your own buildings can help save them if they sustain too much fire. Any kills made while wielding the Wrangler will count towards this achievement.

Team Doctor Accumulate 25000 heal points as a Medic. Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: You will naturally obtain this after spending a reasonable amount of time playing as Medic.

With Friends Like These... Play in a game with five or more players from your friends list. Difficulty: Hard How to obtain: You must play a full round with all seven friends. According to Valve statistics, this is one of the rarest achievements among players. Try joining a clan of regular players or organizing a game with many friends.

World Traveler Play a complete game on 2Fort, Dustbowl, Granary, Gravel Pit, Hydro, and Well (CP). Difficulty: Easy How to obtain: Play a game on 2Fort, Dustbowl, Granary, Gravel Pit, Hydro, and Well. If you join a game that is already in session, you will not be credited with playing a game on that map; you must be in the round from start to finish.
