How to unlock the I'm Special trophy

    So I can confirm that you only need to do the Specialist Weapons section, not Specialist Abilities or Killjoys.
    This means that you have to get 100 kills which each Specialist Weapons, as well as 20 Double Kills and 20 Triple kills with Specialist Weapons.
    On top of that, you have to kill an enemy that has their Specialist Weapon equipped with you own Specialist Weapon (this is called Power Struggle). Still following me?

    The Double- and Triple Kills will come naturally, just as Power Struggle.

    These are all the Specialist Weapons, as well with some tips for each:

    Gravity Spikes:
    When you activate this Weapon, you'll jump into the air and slam into the ground, killing anyone in your blast radius. Your radius increases if you jump from a height.
    For this, I recommend playing Domination, since the enemies will group up, giving you a nice multi-kill.

    Sparrow
    This is a bow, and as with any bow, you need to draw it before you shoot. If you don't, your range will be very short. So you need to draw to increase your shot.
    These arrows will kills enemies on in pact, and will explode after a few seconds. This explosion can also be deadly.
    I would sit back and just pick people off, because of the drawing, but this weapon isn't horrible to run around with.

    Tempest
    This is a charge-shot weapon that shoots electric bolts. These shots will chain up nearby enemies, killing them (Like the Wunderwaffe in Zombies). The hardest part of killing with this weapon is the charge. When you press the button to shoot, it will fire a second later. This makes it very unpractical to use in close up combat, so do just like the Sparrow: Sit in the back and pick people off.

    War Machine
    This is basically a grenade launcher. The grenades will kill on inpact, or (if missed) split into three grenades that explode (duh) after a second.
    There's not much to say about this one. Run around and blow people up!

    Annihalator
    This gun is stronger than a shotgun, but it has a range longer than that of a sniper. You can even shoot down aircraft with just one or two bullets of this thing! It has however, a fire rate like the Locus sniper has.
    You can rush and shoot around to kill people with the Annihalator, or you can sit back and snipe them; it's pretty much always a one shot-one kill.

    H.I.V.E.
    When you shoot, little pods come flying out of your gun. When an enemy gets close to it, nanodrones will attack and kill them.
    This probably is the hardest one to get 100 kills with.
    Play an objective game mode, like Domination or Demolition, and shoot your pods around (or in) the objective area. You can also shoot them in places where you know that people will come through. After that, camp! Nothing else, just camp and try to live as long as possible. The pods will disappear when you die, and that's not what you want to happen. You have to wait for the kills to come to you.

    Scythe
    This is good. Very good! The Scythe is your arm, but transformed into a mini-gun! It is very accurate and has a high rate of fire. It has a slight delay when you start shooting, but it's so strong that it isn't such big of a deal.
    It shoots just like a gun, so use it like a gun! Just run around and shoot people. If you manouvre while the gun start up, you'll wreck you enemies.

    Ripper
    This weapon is different than the others. It doesn't shoot, and it isn't a gun. The Ripper is a knife, and boy, it tears your enemies into pieces. You don't have to activate this weapon beforehand; when you activate it, it will immediately start the first attack. The range is also way bigger than your average melee attack: you will lunge at your enemies. You hold your normal gun in your hands while using it, so you can shoot the people who are too far away to knife. The best of all: the charge time is very short (the shortest of all Weapons AND Abilities)!
    I suggest you flank your enemies so they won't shoot you while you're nearing them.

    Purifier
    This weapon is beast! This is a flamethrower with a bigger range than you would expect from a flamethrower. You can shoot quite long, considering that you only have to hit your enemies lightly to already kill them. But be warned! They will still live for about one second after you've hit them, and they can still kill you in that time. But even though you're dead, they'll still burn to ashes.
    I would say that this weapon is best to use in close quarters areas, like the insides of buildings. People won't see you coming, and when they do, they're already in your range to burn them.


    So I wish you good luck with grinding out all these kills! 900 kills are a lot!
    It will be very time consuming, but in the end, you'll have you golden trophy! clap
