How to unlock the Stone Cold Skiller achievement

    This achievement can come through natural progression, but can also very easily be boosted using a fast car with good grip.

    What you will want to do is select a decently fast car with the best grip possible. Now you'll want to drive back and forth on the highway that links Montellino & Sisteron. You can view the video below for more exact details. While driving back and forth, you'll want to maintain a high rate of speed and get as many near miss skills as possible. Try to avoid drifting, trading paint, air, or wreckage as these are risky during a skill chain on the highway.

    As you begin this method, you'll want to bank your skill chain decently early, but as you unlock more perks and gain confidence feel free to bank at a higher and higher skill chain.

    In total, you will need to earn 65 skill points while equals 6,500,000 skills chain points! After unlocking your final point, the achievement will unlock.

    MeshabbaThis was stuck at 98% for me as well. I recently reinstalled the game and found that my save had been wiped. The achievement unlocked when I got my first skill point on my new save however.

    this isn't a solution to get the achievement in the normal sense, I just thought I would post it here to help those that like me got 65 skill perks and was left on 96-98% complete with the achievement tracker with no way to get any more skill points. I have heard this is quite a common problem if you play the game when xbox live isn't 100% working at the time.

    1. Delete your forza save file from console only (this will be backed up in the cloud)

    2. I then disabled internet in settings so my game save wouldn't re sync with the cloud.

    3. Started new game offline and went through the intro (one race and one road trip, when you start the next race you should be able to start gaining skill points) and then drove to the airport after it has told you skill points are enabled. Then i reconnected the xbox to internet so i could get achievements.(note your game wont re sync to your save on the cloud as you are in the game and not on the title screen)

    4.I earnt around 2 skill points which took my 96% to 100% and achievement popped .closed game and deleted console save . i found for each 2% you are missing from the 100% you will need to earn another skill point, i.e. i was 4% off so needed to get two points.

    5.Reloaded the game then asked to sync to the cloud and got my progress back with this achievement now popped.

    Hope this helps
    P.s -it took a little while to re sync just be patient.

    credit to Varboss from the forza forums, stopped me having to start the game from scratch again

    p.p.s this method also work if you are missing any barn finds, although you will have to play on into the game until it shows barn find on your map.

    el tebyFor those wondering, this did not work for the bonus boards, if the game decides to bend you over with the boards, you’ll have to collect all 150 once again to unlock it. That’s what happened to me and another gamer

    CurufinweStill works. I only needed 2 more skill points but forget to connect to the internet when I got to the airport and had already grinded out 3 that didn’t count because I wasn’t online.

    ***ULTIMATE EASY SOLUTION***

    Step One: Acquire a very easy-to-drift car. (I was using the Jeep Willys MB with a ridiculous engine)

    Step Two: Go to the airport in the North-West of the map.

    Step Three: Drift like crazy along the main runway.

    Step Four: Profit.

    (The long explanation is below)

    The fastest, easiest and SAFEST way to earn this is to head over to the AIRPORT'S MAIN RUNWAY in the North-West of the map with a car that can drift extremely easily.

    I personally have been using the Willys MB Jeep that a good friend of mine suggested trying out. It can be acquired as one of the barn finds.

    I swapped out the engine for 6.2 litre V8 which means it's basically a donut machine.

    All you need to do is drive up and down the main runway in the airport, drifting all the way back and forth. Throw in some wreckage and side-swipes for extra points to really drive the score up.

    It's also great if it happens to be raining as it makes the drifting easier, but it's not necessary.

    You can also gain XP by driving through the speed camera and from your high skill chains. Every little helps!

    I've uploaded a game DVR clip showing my method which can be seen here:

    UnsungGhostTo help the sliding, buy the Storm Island wheels with less grip. Also when you do a sharp turn but you're not drifting you can tap the A button and it will usually do an "E-drift."

    SharingTitan33this is great, I managed to earn like 7 skill points in 45 mins. Thanks

    LuvMyXBOX+1 - thank you this worked. I used the Bugatti with no car updates and did constant drifts on the airstrip. The achievement is glitched as it didn't pop and when I looked at my achievements, it was still at 90%. But when I went to the Forza Horizon 2 Game Hub, and clicked on Achievements there, it showed as unlocked with most recent date.
