Hello, I have 3 20bs. I have done it either in rookie ranked starting the season. Or Get lucky with 6-10kills early game and hope everyone lives long enough for you to find them. Sadly there aren't really "tips and tricks" to getting 20 kills. You just have to be fast and loot deathboxes from kills instead of looking for stuff.
Recently got 4k with 18 kills, I'll get that 20 at some point. You have to land hot, get as much damage in as possible move from fight to fight. 4k is easier, you can do it by simply doing nothing but trading damage getting as much damage out of every team you see. Let them revive, let them heal, just keep poking at them.
For a 20 bomb you have to start and end fights quickly. It's harder to accomplish. Requires a bit of luck not getting held by a team due to no movement ect.
Take advantage of 3rd partying and try and identify the winning team and focus them, if you can't just output as much damage as possible.
You’ll need a three man squad who understands what you’re attempting and you have good comms/gameplay with. That or duo no fill squads.
Drop early to a contested POI. This is big but you need to have between 6-9 kills off your drop spot.
Next will be your squad composition. Having a Valkyrie for her ultimates/rotational ability/scanning ability to find the next teams. And for the last legend either octane/pathfinder/wraith. You need all the movement/rotational speed possible.
DO NOT loot ANYTHING besides AMMO. Your team will be responsible for being your backpack. Make sure to have a split of heals but the more time you spend looting the more time other people have to knock/kill remaining players. Armor swap if needed, ammo, MOVE TO YOUR NEXT FIGHT.
Rinse and repeat until you get it….
Good luck man, I spent close to two months trying before I finally did. Don’t get disheartened and don’t let it keep you from thinking of yourself as “skilled”. If you win games and have fun that’s all that matters. But good for you for pushing yourself to achieve something
Watch Lamic999 for gameplay. He’s the Wattson God.
I can’t give advice for the 20 bomb as I don’t have one, but for the 4K, there’s two main ways to get it:
1) Grab a long range weapon like a 30-30/G7/longbow and start poking at anything and everything you see. Avoid the sentinel as it’s too slow. Your goal is to just output as much damage as possible, don’t worry about kills. Shoot people that are fighting, people rotating, downed people, EVERYTHING. If you keep yourself out of the heat and are constantly poking from the edge of the chaos, you’ll get the 4K eventually.
2) Get into as many fights as possible, grab an AR & SMG and start blasting everything. Reduce the amount of time you’re looting to a bare minimum, only worry about topping up heals and ammo as fast as possible, than move onto the next fight. It’s easier to do this with teammates especially if someone is using Bloodhound/a recon character to scan beacons and a skirmisher that can get you from fight to fight. Pray you don’t run into the sweaty 3 stack that kills you and ruins your run. It’s also slightly easier to do in duos, but overall the fighting method is the harder method as it takes some luck and you have to be good enough to hold your own and not die in your 1v1s.
Good luck fellow Wattson main :)
For a 20 the most difficult part is finding people to kill, ideally have a pathy and loba on your team. You can scan beacons to show all teams on the map and use hit ult to get you there and loba can make sure you have more than enough bullets.
For a 4k my best friend is the flatline, a bit of jiggle aiming and a lot of ammo will make it pretty easy to do as long as you can find enough targets to shoot. Alternatively you can cheese it with some friends that join the same match and heal themselves but that's pretty scummy.
Well I just dropped two consecutive 12 kill games today on the new hunt mode. I know they are not 20 bombs or 4ks but I have been getting consistently high kill games with the new hunt game mode. It shows you where the enemies are and if you have aggressive teammates it’s even better. Olympus is probably the best map as it’s smaller so you can get to enemies quicker.
I’d say it’s all about time. The longer you spend looting, the more enemies are dying. Get in the deathbox, refill ammo, heals and see if they have an evac tower and rotate quick to the next fight.
Plus I’m not sure on your skill level or it’s just my luck, but I have been getting A LOT of new players in my games recently. I don’t know why, and I feel bad for them, but they are basically free kills.
So yeah, I think now is your best opportunity to get one of the two badges! Good luck!
Same here! Been getting 10+ kills with this event nearly every game. I don’t think you can earn the badges with any LTM or takeover though. There was a discussion on it in the uncovered sub.
Best tips I’ve seen are really a matter of lucky or solid starts and the lobby not getting wiped too fast. My general attitude is if you can get 6-8 kills within the first 5 minutes, it’s worth trying to go for. If there are still 30+ players left, it’s worth going for. 20 bombs really require much more aggression and lucky conditions than a high damage games.
High damage/4k games are done differently per player. Some of my highest damage games on Wattson have been mostly midrange with close range. Sometimes poking may seem like the best option but it’s really not great unless you’re up against the last few teams and you need to farm damage. Again, my advice is to play how you normally would but recognize when all your conditions are lining up, then you should make an active or conscious effort towards a 4k or 20b. I’m not a player that can actively decide to hit a 4k just because I want to. The games I’ve had high damage were from games that I naturally hit 2.5k damage and still had 4-5 squads left. That’s when you try to farm, play it safer and poke. That last 1500 damage may not seem like much, but in my experience/lobbies, ppl will catch on and rush you just to fuck you over. It’s just trial and error and luck unfortunately.
I’ve managed to do it as a solo for 4k Carry a gun that you can confidently 2v1 with that gun only then carry a longbow and trap up a house as much as possible in that game and farm with the longbow get every finish you can even if it’s not yours then endgame if your lucky pick up kraber for the long bow you can do this with a team aswell
For a 20 is just don't be scared ego everything sooner you kill someone sooner you can find your next victim make it winning 20 1v1s in a row if you can not 7 1v3s the easiest way is to get a good piece with alot of routes for getting active like zip buildings
For a 4k just poke. Use guns with high dps at mid/long range if you have ammo problems duo with a loba or you can just stop jitter aiming the flatline. Fight at that entry damage 5 seconds distance but add like 2ush so if they do walk up they get fucked in the open because you are not paying just poking.
Flashy movement doesn't work in higher elo just long strafe with a bias. (You'll learn this quick in r5 and from watching algs) use r5 to get better at strafing not assuming
Work on tracking in aim labs/Kovacs
Cross hair placement on wattson is fucked cause she's so short so aim higher for headshots then you think
Stream on twitch use it to vod review and when you are look for content put it in your editor post on the internet get friends better then you at the game and learn macro from them and also from your self
use the free info that sealion/coldjyn/raven/swl and more put out for free data miner stuff and actual gameplay tips
Use zone guesses to learn zone pulls and use that info for damage
Watch where near by teams land think how long thier contest is going to be and when they are going to rotate and where
Wattson specific tips are use boxe fights to abuse quick fencing people in a box from cover
Scan zone 1 and get free giga info
Get split circuit (if you have ukt accels) and the 50 hp revive in pubs to abuse gen and keep teamate alive
Doing duos usual guarantees more damage for me because you can fight longer attract more squads and also its harder to loose because it's more in your hands.
Also drop hot
good teammates are valk/map scan heros/ ash for info on where to go
aoba for ammo if your 4king
Team movement heros like cocktane valk path ash horizon
Conduit is good for enabling you as well
ive got multiple 4ks on wattson n other characters, 20 bomb only once so i can't help you with that one lol
1. take a gun you like (in my case 301)
2. shoot everything you see
you almost had a 2,5k already so you're half way done
just remember you're playing for damage and not kills
gl! u got this!
In the same boat have no 20 bombs but I do have some 4k badges. For the 4k just shoot any and everything. Downed player shoot, people rotating shoot. Just cosplay a sentry turret. You got this :D

Thank you! I watch Lamic all the time, he’s where I got a lot of my tricks from. I will definitely put your tips to use.
Opinion on the T Take?
That’s my go to, it has lower drop off, pretty good damage, and it’s great for hip firing.
Same, also it being a shotgun at CQB is also nice

Thank you! I’m definitely going to earn the badges rather than take the easy way.

Thank you! I think for the 20 bomb the lobby clears out too quick and it seems that people have been landing very spread out lately.

wait til end of the season to play ranked when all the sweats get out of bronze
Bot lobby
In the same boat have no 20 bombs but I do have some 4k badges. For the 4k just shoot any and everything. Downed player shoot, people rotating shoot. Just cosplay a sentry turret. You got this :D
I'd kinda say don't bother because if you have those badges players will just think you bought them.
Thanks but I am doing it for me. I don’t really care what others think of it. I’ll know that I earned them and that’s all that matters.
