    Load up a private match on any map: Select one of the following characters: (The number inside the brackets is the operation the characters are from). The achievement description says characters from operation 2 or 3, but operation 1 seems to be working as well...

    Operation 1 and 2:
    Baird,(2)
    Lizzie Carmine,(2)
    Drone,(2)
    Jermad,(2)
    Raam,(1)
    Warden,(1)
    Kantus,(2)
    Cog Gear,(1)
    DeeBee,(1)

    Operation 3:
    Cole,(3)
    Clayton Carmine,(3)
    Myrrah,(3)
    Theron Guard,(3)

    Finish the match and BOOM! achievement unlocked.

    Darth James ODon't fancy including any information on how to unlock these characters?
    Posted by Darth James O on 17 Apr 20 at 22:05
    PostmortimusHighlight the totem in the totem selection screen and press Y. That shows the list of challenges that you need to complete to unlock the character. Including all those descriptions in here would make this guide needlessly long, in my opinion.

    LeiChat@Postmortimus Have they removed totems? If not, where do I find them please? I am only seeing the option to buy character skins with coins or iron.

    EarthboundXYeah, they removed Totems in this latest season.

    PirateRyanGIf you want the characters from these operations now, you have to purchase one of their skins with gold coins or scrap. If you purchase a skin for a character you do not own, it unlocks them.

    This is correct as of August 2020.

    EarthboundXOddly it just unlocked all pre season 5 characters for me. I didn't have to buy anything.

    Whats a ChundyI can confirm that operation 1 character's will not unlock this at the present moment.
