This is the way to unlock using Multiplayer.
Look to the other guides if you are interested in the single player way to unlock this achievement (honestly single player method looks way easier).
Here is the guide:
Use characters that earn experience toward the same stat and level the bonus stat to Level 6. Health Regeneration Cap and Max Shields have the most characters to play. Health & Shield Regeneration Delay Reduction has no Ultra Rare Characters to play.
But the best Platinum Bonus Stat group is Health Regeneration Gap because it has Human Juggernaut, Human Artificer, Human Infiltrator and Asari Adept which are all Platinum viable.If you search for a quick match you might be able to drop into a game that has already started which means it will finish sooner and XP is gained faster.
Attaining a Level 1 Bonus Stat requires leveling one character to Level 20. A Level 2 Bonus Stat requires the amount of XP to level 2 more characters to Level 20. I estimate that to gain a Level 6 Bonus Stat you will have to gain enough XP for 21 characters to reach level 20. Resetting characters is not necessary because XP is still gained toward the Bonus Stat when the character is at level 20.
More experience is awarded the higher difficulty of the match where Gold (or Platinum now available) has the highest XP earned per match.
Use the Apex Missions with Experience Point bonuses to help with the grind.
See your Bonus Stat progress:
Connect to the EA Servers and enter the Multiplayer menu. Enter sub menu Prestige and choose the menu item Bonus Stats. This is where the bonus stats are located.
See a character's Bonus Stat:
In the Multiplayer menu, select Change Character and while a character is highlighted the bonus stat should be visible in the bottom right corner of the screen.
