Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 – Trophy Guide

This Is My Boomstick (Bronze) Kill 30 enemies with the XM25 in “Black Tuesday.”

The XM25 is grenade launcher sniper, which you get at the start of the level. Just kill 30 enemies with this weapon and the trophy should unlock. Progress further in the game and you will get an ammo restock so don’t worry.

What Goes Up…  (Bronze) Destroy all the choppers with only the UGV’s grenade launcher in “Persona Non Grata.”

When you get control of the UGV (mini drone), make sure you save your grenade launcher ammo for the choppers. There are only 5 of them and each one takes 2 hits to kill.

For Whom the Shell Tolls (Bronze) Destroy all targets during the mortar sequence with only 4 shells in “Back on the Grid.”

When you reach the location where you have to use a mortar you will see target that you need to destroy. You can only use 4 for the trophy, so aim nicely before shooting. If you fail then just restart checkpoint.

Kill Box (Bronze) Kill 20 enemies with the Chopper Gunner in a single run in “Return to Sender.”

Once you get off the car sequence, don’t kill any enemies and just run to cover. You will get a support chopper icon so use it and just kill 20 enemies. Its not hard at all and you can get it on your 2nd or 3rd chopper run so don’t worry.

Danger Close (Bronze) Take down a chopper with an AC-130 smoke grenade in “Bag and Drag.”

After going through the building and into the streets, you will reach a section where you obtain a smoke grenade that calls in an airstrike to the location you throw it at. When you reach the second section where you see choppers dropping enemies, throw one smoke grenade below the chopper and the trophy will unlock shortly after. If not then restart at the checkpoint.

Ménage à Trois (Bronze) Destroy 3 tanks with a single 105mm shot in “Iron Lady.”

Equip the 105mm weapon and wait for 3 tanks to come close and then just shoot the weapon.

Nein  (Bronze) Kill 9 enemies with A-10 strafing runs in “Scorched Earth.”

When you climb on top of the building and defend a squad on the other building, you can request an 1-10 strafing plane unit to help you out. You need to kill 9 soldiers with this.

You need to be quick so try to get it before you destroy the tank or else reload the checkpoint.

50/50 (Bronze) Complete a Special Ops Mission Mode game with the same number of kills as your partner.

Really easy to do, just finish a mission with the same kills. Make sure you play on easy and just get the same amount of kills.

Its better to do this in split screen mode, so you can work together more effectively.

Birdie (Bronze) Kill 2 enemy helicopters without getting hit in a Special Ops Survival game.

Easily done in the first Spec Ops survival mission. Hide under mini-bridge near the market, and just shoot the choppers until you destroy them making sure they don’t damage you.

You can also call an airstrike on them to make the job easier.

Serrated Edge (Bronze) Finish a Juggernaut with a knife in Special Ops.

Play the first survival mission and shoot the juggernaut a lot when he appears, but dont kill him then simply go and knife him.

If you feel unsafe then flash him before attempting.

Play a game with a partner and just don’t buy any weapon or items. Pick up weapons from enemies you kill and any money your partner obtains can be transferred to you using any of the weapon laptops.

So don’t waste money on anything and let your partner transfer all of his money to you.

I Live (Bronze) Survive 1 wave in a Special Ops Survival game.

Just survive one wave in survival. Really easy.

Survivor (Silver) – Reach Wave 10 in each mission of Special Ops Survival mode.

See “unstoppable”

Unstoppable (Silver) – Reach Wave 15 in each mission of Special Ops Survival mode.

There are 16 maps and after every 4 maps, the game becomes harder and harder. You only need to reach wave 15 in every map, so if you reach 15 and die that’s fine.

On the harder waves make sure you always buy the riot shield squad and also make sure you camp at a very secure location with minigun turrets backing you up.

Also, make sure you have good weapons equipped: one LMG and one Assault with the red dot attachment.

No Assistance Required (Bronze) Complete a Special Ops Mission Mode game on Hardened or Veteran with no player getting downed.

Brag Rags (Bronze) Earn 1 star in Special Ops Mission Mode.

See “OverAchiever”

Tactician (Bronze) Earn 1 star in each mission of Special Ops Mission Mode.

See “OverAchiever”

Overachiever (Silver) – Earn 48 stars in Special Ops Mission Mode.

This has to be the hardest trophy in the game. you need to get 3 stars on all 16 missions meaning you need to complete all on Veteran. Keep in mind that some missions are easier if playing solo than with a partner. I have tested this and I can confirm it. So test it out and see what suits you best.

Flight Attendant (Bronze) Kill all 5 enemies during the zero-g sequence in ‘Turbulence.’

Once you reach the combat section on the plane, there will be a section where the plane shakes and everyone will fly inside the plane (zero gravity). Once you get to this part just make sure you kill 5 enemies. Kill the first 2 or 3 using the pistol and the last 2 or 3 with the AK. If you fail reload the checkpoint.
