    You have to carry the customized lancer Marcus gives you when you get your Armour in Act II chapter 2 Geared Up, to the end of act V chapter 2 Killing Time.

    I had dropped and swapped it a couple of times, then picked it back up afterwards and the achievement still popped for me.

    metallicafan459Carried the Lancer all the way through and no achievement - another playthrough it is - eurgh. Think for me it’s related to quick resume angry

    SupmachineJust for the people that still need it.
    I got it today, what I did was start a new solo campaign in casual from Act II Chapter II and did all the campaign in two sessions clicking Continue.
    I only picked up blue ammo boxes and when I picked other weapons, I changed only the gnasher.
    It only took me like 4 hours total

    throwbackjGot it the achievement today, I actually used a lot of gnasher shotgun through my collectible play through (I started an entire new campaign on casual), picked up lancer ammo from enemies and ammo boxes and got the chevo at the end 👍🏽

    Finally Got It Yesterday!!!! It was the third time I try to unlock this achivement.

    Now, I have the solution:

    *Create a New Game alone no coop., never chapter select, just a New Game from the begining. If you stop playing, select CONTINUE the next time you play again.

    * Play it on Casual, and go fast, I spent 5 hours.

    * When Marcus gives you the customized lancer, NEVER, i said NEVER drop it. I use that lancer in all over the game until I unlocked the achivement. No Gnasher. Always with the lancer on your hands. Never use another weapon except in hordes , I used Troikas. Trust me, it´s easy if you play on casual with the active realoads.

    * Take the ammo from the blue ammo boxes, never take the ammo from the fallen enemys, that lancers are not customized and maybe that could be a mistake

    *Don´t reload Chapters!

    *Don´t take a customized lancer from your friends.

    * Just kill with your customized lancer and GO ON!!!!

    Apostle92627I can confirm you don't need to start the whole game. You only need to start Act 2.

    BullokhI tried doing this achievement in the same run as my playtrough on insane difficulty. its very time consuming but not difficult. this is an alert for other players trying to do the same as I did: because one condition is not reloading chapters, theres only one fight where you need to reload if you screwed up, IN THE SWARMAK FIGHT, AT THE END OF ACT 4.
    I mean, if you dont watch a video on how to beat the swarmak, its almost impossible and you have to consider reloading a whole chapter, meaning you have to decide if you have to make another run just for the "sound of silence" achievement.
    PS. during the run i did pick up ammo from enemy lancers, and the achievement pop, i think that its fixed.
    thanks!

    Simply carry JD's Customized Lancer from Act II to Act V.

    I can confirm that picking Del's or Kait's Customized Lancer after losing yours WILL NOT give you the achievement.

    You HAVE to carry JD's Lancer all the way.

    If youre planing to get this cheevo coop or split screen make sure you are hosting and controling JD.
