    Flaming Ninja Anniversary

    To unlock this achievement you must kill an opponent with this current achievement:

    Halo: The Master Chief CollectionNinja ReduxThe Ninja Redux achievement in Halo: The Master Chief Collection worth 30 pointsHalo 2A MP: Kill 5 people with melee from behind in Anniversary matchmaking.


    It must be done in matchmaking so either you can get lucky and kill someone with this achievement, or you can play rumble with a friend and kill them.

    I got the achievement in Ranked Team Halo 2: Anniversary playlist on the map Zenith killing a random who had the Ninja Redux achievement.

    According to gomuhimo RSC he shot his guest account in Halo 2A and obtained this achievement when he had the Ninja Redux achievement. Also confirmed by others so you can shoot your guest account if you have the ninja redux achievement yourself, you will unlock the achievement!

    Note: Todays patch update (12/22/14) they fixed it where if you kill anyone with this achievement you will definitely unlock the achievement. Meaning if you boost the assassinations with a friend online and then kill each other you will obtain the achievement.

    ROBBERT DHTStill no luck with this one. Killed quite some people online and betrayed my guest on an Anniversary map. It's still locked :(

    ROBBERT DHTAnd ranting always seem to work. It just popped for me after killing some enemy that I killed a few times before in that match. At least I'm glad it did pop.

    rustyspoonsboosted this with my housemates' account on a second xbox - they killed me 5 times, their chevo popped, so i went to kill them in the same natch, twice, and no flaming ninja.

    it did, however, unlock the next time i killed them in a new match (straight after the other one had finished).

    Solution:

    Notes:
    - This achievement is obtainable in Social Games or Competitive Games matchmaking via Halo 2: Anniversary.
    - Input-based matchmaking, platform-based matchmaking, and region selection does make a difference when boosting this with a friend in a 1v1 social game. If both players use the same type of input device, play on the same platform, and/or connect using only specific regions, you can increase your chances of matching up almost every time. This is a new feature added (as of 17 November 2020) to allow cross-play between Xbox One and PC players regardless of the input device used. You can customize these restrictions via Options & Career -> Settings -> Networking.

    If you are playing in Competitive Games matchmaking, you must use the H2A Team Hardcore playlist. Playlists are subject to change by the developer, 343 Industries.

    The quickest and easiest method to unlock this achievement is in Social Games matchmaking.
    1) Find another player that already has the Ninja Redux achievement unlocked (listed below)
    Halo: The Master Chief CollectionNinja ReduxThe Ninja Redux achievement in Halo: The Master Chief Collection worth 30 pointsHalo 2A MP: Kill 5 people with melee from behind in Anniversary matchmaking.

    2) Click Multiplayer
    3) Click Social Games
    4) Change the Game Size to 1v1
    5) Under Games Included, uncheck Halo: Reach
    6) Under Games Included, uncheck Halo: Combat Evolved
    7) Under Games Included, uncheck Halo 2: Classic
    8) Under Games Included, check Halo 2: Anniversary (required)
    9) Under Games Included, uncheck Halo 3
    10) Under Games Included, uncheck Halo 4
    11) Under Game Categories Included, check Precision Slayer
    12) Go back to the top and highlight (mouse over) PLAY, but DO NOT click on it yet
    13) At this point, you will need to have the other player repeat the same steps above.
    14) Once both players are ready, have one of the players do a countdown in voice chat (i.e. 3, 2, 1, GO!)
    15) On GO!, both players will click PLAY to start matchmaking
    16) If done properly, both players will be in the same 1v1 match together

    Once the match starts, have both players meet in the same spot (typically in the center of the map). The player going for the achievement will only need to kill the other player. Achievement unlocked!


    *** Steam users: Please note that it may take a bit longer for the achievement to unlock as Xbox One achievements require confirmation via Xbox Live. More information: Problems with Xbox One achievements and challenges ***
