Objectives and how to achieve them:

 

1st mission is to play five multiplayer matches, which can be any MP mode. Free for all can be the fastest to finish this task among all the MP modes.

 

Call of Duty Mobile Machete Objectives

 

2nd mission is to earn 15 Bloodthirsty Medals also in the multiplayer matches. Since it falls under the multiplayer section, players can get it by completing this objective in multiplayer mode only. However, earning the Bloodthirsty medal 15 times is quite a lengthy process and may prove hard for many players, especially newcomers. Hence here are some tips and tricks that players can use to complete the task in a short space of time:

 

  • Choose your weapons wisely.
  • Use the drones available in Multiplayer mode to scout nearby enemies
  • Use scorestreaks to have an upper hand
  • Crouch and slide to your advantage
  • Keep moving around and reposition yourself whenever possible.

 

You can best finish this task in the Hardpoint mode; as an alternative, you can get more Bots, so you have a choice to select any map. For this task, you need to kill five enemies without getting killed; in other words, get at least a streak of 5 before getting killed. After getting a streak, you will get the one required Blood Thirsty medal. To get another medal, you need to get killed. After you respawn, repeat the above process to get more medals.

 

3rd mission is relatively easy as you need 20 enemy Kills with an SMG after equipping five attachments. You can go to loadout, then to Gunsmith, and equip the attachments as per your liking. Next, you can play any mode to get those 20 kills. For this mission, Free for All is an excellent mode to save time.

 

4th mission, kill five (5) enemies with melee weapons, is also an easier task. You can equip any melee from loadout if you have any. Again, play Free For All mode to finish this task and get your five kills quickly. Keep in mind, you can make it faster by using your melee only, or if you're having trouble, you can fire some shots and then switch to melee to finish off the enemies.

 

5th mission may be tricky as you need to Kill eight (8) enemies in this task with headshots only while playing in any mode. To ease this task, play with any gun that you're sure has good aim, and you are familiar with that gun. Snipers are the best options for this task, but you need to settle in a good Vantage point to get a few Headshots steadily. You can choose to play in Hardpoint to have more chances to achieve this target. Now kill eight enemies with Headshots only to complete this task.

 

The 6th mission requires killing eight (8) enemies with an ax or any Wrench. This season, you can earn the latest Wrench weapon by completing Undead Siege mode and receiving the reward from Tier 1 of the Richtofen's Reward. You can play an undead siege mission to get this. After getting the Wrench, if you didn't have it before, the task is very similar to Mission 4, to kill eight enemies with a melee weapon by doing this in any mode.

 

The 7th mission is to win any 3 matches while equipped with a Wrench but do remember; this task requires you to have the weapon in your hand when the match ends. Try to play any mode you like, for example, Free for All, to win 3 times. Make sure the Wrench is equipped at the end of the match. Even if you've gotten a few kills with any other weapon, keep the Machete in your hand. Also, you need to make sure you are in the top 3 if you're playing Free for All.

 

How to equip Machete in your loadout in COD Mobile?

 

Once the melee weapon has been unlocked, you can now equip this weapon in different modes in the game. Multiplayer, Battle Royale, and the limited-time Zombie mode loadouts all can be done and is at your disposal.  We will start with multiplayer first. To equip this weapon, you need to head over to loadout, the option at the bottom. There you can see your loadout and different options at your disposal. You can select the “Secondary Weapon” in the MP menu to access it. Select melee and search for Machete. Once the challenge is completed and you have Machete, you can then click on Equip to add it in your loadout as your secondary weapon.

 

For the Battle Royale Mode Loadout, choose the melee option that you can find next to the Class selection option. Find the melee weapon and equip Machete if you have already unlocked it.

 

For the Zombies mode loadout, you can find it near the Soldier skins option. Swipe through all the melees, and equip Machete.

Modes for Machete:

 

Bringing a melee weapon such as the Machete to a zombie fight is if a no-brainer. Pop culture references from time immemorial teach us that this weapon is highly potent against hordes of the walking dead.

 

In early Outbreak games, before you hit the difficulty curve, it's well worth conserving your ammo where possible. Any zombies you tangle with one-on-one at this point can be dispatched with the Machete.

 

Step lightly and move swiftly, and be sure to finish each match to make sure your progress counts toward the challenge. The best way to use this weapon is to camp in shadows or any corner and wait for your prey, as the silent kill won't notify your enemies of your location. Camping can be applied in any mode of the game.
