How to unlock the Vengeful Ghost achievement

    This mode features a ghost that chases players around until they either beat the mission or die trying. Other than that, it is just basic Junkenstein rules, so feel free to watch one of those guides if you've never played Junkenstein before or are having trouble with the waves!

    Here are some notes based on my time playing this mode:

    - The ghost spawns about 10 seconds into the match and immediately starts chasing one player
    - The ghost chases one player for about 10 seconds, after which it stops for about 3 seconds and then selects a new player to chase
    - When the ghost has locked onto you, there will be a creepy sound that plays so you know you've been targeted (which is quite useful in case you aren't looking in his direction)
    - The ghost cannot take any damage, so do not waste your shots
    - The ghost moves at about 3/4 the speed of a normal player, so he is pretty easy to outrun... as long as you are paying attention
    - If the ghost gets close enough to any player (not just the one he is chasing) he does pretty significant damage, so you will want to take him seriously (he can kill in about 3 seconds)
    - For best results, I've found that the person being chased by the ghost should run down the middle/bridge area (toward where most of the bosses spawn) so that you can lead him around without running the risk of accidentally getting too close to one of your teammates
    - Once the ghost stops chasing you, return to your normal position and resume fighting the waves of bots
    - While your teammate is being chased by the ghost, just carry on fighting the waves of bots, and/or keep your teammate healed up if the ghost is damaging him

    The team comp I've found to be the best out of my time playing is one consisting of Torb, Zen/Ana, Brig, and Tracer/Soldier. You definitely want a good amount of healing output from multiple sources (especially since if your healer is being chased by the ghost they won't be able to heal much), and you absolutely need a Torb in this mode no matter what because the extra damage from his turret is just too valuable. Place Torb's turret somewhere near the door, keep Brig near the door for AOE heals and damage/stuns on any bots or tires that get by, and Zen/Ana and Tracer/Soldier can cover the area to the left by the stairs.

    That's about it! If you have any other pointers, please leave a comment and I would be happy to add them toast

    KandeeRebel@Bunny Breakfast.I mainly meant if you are ever trying to get a team together for it or anything I can play torb and pretty comfortable with using him if we could find 2 others because im honestly on the exact same vote as you its getting very frustrating:(

    xCENAxMODBunny Breakfast, you should make/join a session on here for it. These aren't hard and braindead teammates in public games make it harder than it needs to be

    Bunny BreakfastFinally got this achievement, thanks to a team that half knew what they were doing! I got it with a team of zenyatta, brigette, torb and soldier. Although how much I complained, this achievement was fun to do, and I am quickly realizing that the "Frenzied Stampede" mission is much harder!

    Posting a solution with the complete Spawn Timers for Junkenstein's Revenge. The other solutions have good strategies to follow.

    The base spawns and difficulty for the Halloween Terror Challenge Missions are identical to an Expert Junkenstein's Revenge run.

    The only difference is the variant for the particular challenge which in this case is:
    A ghost will harass the heroes during the battle and do damage to players and accessories that pass through it.

    Your standard Junkenstein's Revenge strat will be sufficient for this run. Torbjorn's turret will be damaged by the ghost so placement of the turret on the pedestal behind spawn is optimal for this run.

    Here are the current spawn timers:
    8:00 Mission Start
    6:51 Tire (Random)
    6:33 Tire (Random)
    5:48 The Reaper
    4:54 Tire (Random)
    4:39 Tire (Random)
    4:25 Tire (Random)
    3:53 Junkenstein's Monster
    3:24 Tire (Random)
    2:52 The Summoner
    2:36 Tire (Right)
    1:52 Dr. Junkenstein
    1:36 The Reaper
    0:49 Tire (Left)
    0:47 Tire (Right)
    0:33 The Reaper
    0:25 Tire (Center)
    0:00 The Witch, Dr. Junkenstein, Junkenstein's Monster
    Last Boss Dies -> Victory

    Things to note:
    • The time given is when the audio cue is initiated. There may be a few seconds before the enemy is fully spawned and able to be damaged.
    • For the random tire spawns, listen for the call-outs by the heroes. They will say "ramparts" or "left" for a left spawn, "center" or "bridge" for a center spawn, or "right" for the right spawn.
    I recommend the following team composition:
    McReeCassidy, Torbjorn, Brigitte, Zenyatta

    This achievement stacks with and will unlock the following achievements if not previously earned:
    Overwatch 2Dawn BreaksThe Dawn Breaks achievement in Overwatch 2 worth 46 pointsWin Junkenstein's Revenge on Expert difficulty.

    Overwatch 2Survived the NightThe Survived the Night achievement in Overwatch 2 worth 33 pointsWin Junkenstein's Revenge on Hard difficulty.


    Upon completion, the hero you played will count as one of the heroes needed for progress toward this achievement:
    Overwatch 2Four They WereThe Four They Were achievement in Overwatch 2 worth 41 pointsWin Junkenstein's Revenge with 4 different heroes.
