It's about that time of year! Call of Duty is back! This installment of the franchise is set in the future. Sledgehammer Games presents: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. This is the second Call of Duty created by Sledgehammer games. The game stars Mitchell, an ex specialist, who loses his arm in a tragic accident. Fortunately he gets a second opportunity to rejoin the fight from Atlas CEO, Jonathan "Irons" (Kevin Spacey). Take on this action-packed thrill ride and see for yourself what the future holds.
In terms of trophies, you're possibly looking at the easiest Call of Duty trophy list yet. Your main focus is to play the game on Veteran in order to earn the SP Prestige trophy as well as other difficulty related trophies. The campaign is quite short, and shouldn't take long to complete. There are also a handful of mission-specific miscellaneous trophies, which is why it's highly recommended to back up your save files regularly, that way you don't have to restart the mission from the beginning if you happen to miss out on a certain trophy. A Call of Duty trophy list wouldn't be a Call of Duty trophy list without its usual co-op trophies. Whether it's Nazi zombies, spec ops or Extinction, every title has it. This one introduces you a new co-op mode: Exo-Survival. This mode is similar to the Survival mode from Modern Warfare 3. You will have to survive 50 waves to earn every trophy. For descriptions on every co-op trophy, refer to the "Co-op Trophies" section.
Both PS3 and PS4 versions of the game do have their own trophy list, so this trophy list does stack. The trophies do not however, autopop, so you'll have to earn them again manually the second time. The PS3 version of the game also sometimes delays a trophy unlock when you meet the requirements to unlock specific trophies, so be patient. Not only is it important to back up your save file regularly for trophies, but it's also important to back it up as there have been numerous reports that the game crashes and has the chance of corrupting your save data.
Step 1: Complete the game on Veteran Difficulty while collecting all 45 pieces of Intel.
In this first step, you're going to complete the campaign on the hardest difficulty setting (Veteran). It's instantly unlocked from the Main Menu. The reason that you'll want to complete it on Veteran your first time around is because difficulty trophies stack. So if you complete it on Veteran, not only will you earn SP Prestige, but you'll also earn New Era and Head Hitter. In this step, you will also want to collect all 45 pieces of Intel. Collecting every piece of Intel helps to avoid an additional playthrough, and earns you upgrade points. Upgrade points will help you upgrade your exo suit and make Veteran easier. Every mission has 3 pieces of Intel.
In this step, you will also want to complete Headshot Kills, Grenade Kills, and Intel collection exo challenges. It is possible to complete both Grenade Kills and Headshot Kills before the 5th mission. Also bear in mind that exo challenges carry over onto Chapter Select, so do not worry if you don't complete certain challenges as you'll complete them during your clean up run. For more information of these specific challenges, refer to Power Changes Everything from the Trophy Guide section. You won't complete the Total Kills challenge, as you'll need 1600 total kills. You'll complete that challenge during your clean up run. Don't worry about getting trophy specific miscellaneous trophies, as you can earn these Via Chapter Select during your clean up run on Recruit difficulty.
Upon completing Step 1, you will earn:
History in the Making
Advanced Soldier
Second Skin
Seoul Mates
Deadeye
Grenadier
Welcome to Atlas
Life in the Fast Lane
Radioactive
Motor City
Born to Die
Betrayal
Crates on a Plane
The Destroyer Returns
Irons in the Fire
GG
Wrath of Atlas
Manticore Unleashed
The Wheat from the Chaff
We Have the Technology
Ferrum Absconsum
A New Era
Hard Hitter
SP Prestige
Step 2: Earn every miscellaneous trophy Via Chapter Select, while completing your final Exo Challenges (Clean up).
In this step, you will want to earn all of those Mission Specific miscellaneous trophies via Chapter Select. Every mission (excluding "Utopia", "Crash", "Collapse, and "Terminus") have a specific mission trophy to earn. These trophies can easily be earned on Recruit difficulty setting. Before starting your clean up run, you should be aware that some of these trophies have to be earned in longer sections that have checkpoints. If you miss out on the requirements for a certain trophy, you will have to restart the mission. These trophies include: Look Both Ways, Wheelman, and Restricted Airspace. To avoid having to restart the mission from the beginning, back up your save file via Cloud Storage. Doing this will allow you to upload your save data if you should miss out on these specific trophies. You can try to earn every other miscellaneous trophy by simply going to the pause menu and restarting your checkpoint from the "Restart Checkpoint" option if you need to.
In this step, you will also farm your remaining total kills, and complete every other challenge that you didn't complete in the first step to earn Power Changes Everything. The best place to farm kills is in the final mission, "Terminus", and the best mission to farm grenade kills is in the second mission, "Atlas". You can reload missions to complete challenges, however, you MUST complete the mission to save your exo challenge progress. If you didn't collect all 45 pieces of Intel, you will collect them in this step. Saving and quitting after collecting a piece of Intel saves, so you do NOT need to complete the specific mission to save your Intel progress.
Upon completing Step 2, you will earn:
Carma
Never Saw it Coming
Escape Artist
Loud enough for you?
Genius
Threat Detected
Fly Swatter
Where Are You Going?
Riot Control
Not on my Watch
Look Both Ways
Fire and Forget
Wheelman
Sitting Ducks
Party Crasher
Man Overboard!
Flying Ace
Heavy-Handed
Restricted Airspace
Maximum Overdrive
Power Changes Everything
Step 3: Exo Survival.
Exo Survival is the co-op mode in this game. You are pitted against waves of enemies who get stronger and stronger each round. This step is fairly short though and the trophies don't take that long. Three to five hours will be enough to earn all of the co-op related trophies. The first trophy you want to go for is Flip Flop, which will also earn you Exo Flip. In order to flip a map, you need to reach and complete wave 25. Once you do, the map will reset and you will go back to wave 1. You keep all your upgrades and weapons, but now the enemies are a little stronger. This is much easier than you think though and you will more than likely flip a map twice on your first attempt. Next, you want to keep playing on maps to unlock the Tier 4 map called "Riot". This is needed for the Exo Survivor trophy. For more info on how to unlock this map, see the trophy guide. Now all that should be left is playing 50 matches and playing 30 minutes with each class, if you haven't already done so. Both are self explanatory, and for the 50 games trophy you can just kill yourself straight away and it will count as a game played.
Upon completing Step 3, you will earn:
Exo Survival Veteran
Exo Survivor
Class Warfare
Exo Flip
Flip Flop
The End of War

Havoc DLC:
- Estimated trophy difficulty: 6/10 (Personal opinion)
- Offline trophies: 8 (6
, 2
)
- Online trophies: 2 (2
)
- Approximate amount of time to 100%: 2-5 hours (Skill Dependent)
- Minimum number of playthroughs: N/A
- Number of missable trophies: 0
- Glitched trophies: 0
- Does difficulty affect trophies?: N/A
- Do trophies stack?: N/A
- Do cheat codes disable trophies?: N/A
Havoc is the first planned Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare DLC. While it does bring a map pack into competitive multiplayer, all of the trophies will be found in Exo Zombie mode. Zombies is a traditional past time in the Call of Duty Franchise and this is the first time we will see the zombie mode in Advanced Warfare, aside from the teaser in Riot that was released with the initial game. You will play one of four randomly selected characters that worked at the Atlas Research Facility that you're currently stranded at. Over the course of each wave of zombies, you'll get character dialogue explaining a little bit about each character and what was going on at the facility before the outbreak while they try to make sense of what is happening to them.
As far as trophies goes, this is not the hardest zombies has even been if you're a fan of the mode. As always, obtaining the trophies is down to luck and experience. The hardest trophy in the DLC is called Game Over, Man! and can be done either with a full team or by yourself. Only two trophies absolutely require you to play with at least one other person and those are very simply and can be done in any random group in matchmaking before wave five. Unlike other Call of Duty zombie modes in the past, this mode only requires that you get up to a max wave of 28 in order to earn every trophy.
Some things you should keep in mind if you're aiming for trophies; you can earn trophies in Private Match and Public Match but you must be in the game from the very start of Wave 1. If you spawn in after everyone else has already started then you will not earn any trophies. This is especially important if you're joining games via matchmaking solo or if you get kicked from a private match.
The video exploit for the Survivor trophy can be used for other trophies, but all related trophies will become more difficult after the method is patched. This guide will be updated if this exploit gets patched.
As of Patch 1.14 (March 11, 2015) - The TV exploit location mentioned is the Survivor trophy description has been patched. The grate method in the holding cells is still accessible, though harder to enter.
See my FAQ for some additional info: LINK
Step 1: Exo Zombies
In this step you will earn all the trophies in the DLC. Your primary focus to start will be getting comfortable with the layout of the map while going for 25 waves and 20/20. It is recommended that you take advantage of the exploit before it is patched. See Survivor for more details on the exploit. If you don't earn the Do You Even Exo? and Come On And ... naturally, then create solo games to earn these trophies specifically. When you've gotten all the other trophies out of the way, it's time to start working on Game Over, Man! to finish out your 100% for the Havoc DLC.
In this Step you will earn the following trophies;
I'm Alive!
Survivor
Moneybags
Cheapskate
Burgle Burgle Burgle
Come On And ...
PC Load Letter
Do You Even Exo?
20/20
Game Over, Man!

DLC: Ascendance
- Estimated trophy difficulty: 6/10 (Personal opinion)
- Offline trophies: 10 (8
, 2
)
- Online trophies: 0
- Approximate amount of time to 100%: 5-10 hours (Skill Dependent)
- Minimum number of playthroughs: 1 (Easter egg ~ Activate Bubby for Meat is Murder)
- Number of missable trophies: 0
- Glitched trophies: 0
- Does difficulty affect trophies?: N/A
- Do trophies stack?: N/A
- Do cheat codes disable trophies?: N/A
Ascendance is the second planned Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare DLC. While it does bring 4 maps from a map pack into competitive multiplayer, all of the trophies will be found in Exo Zombie mode. Zombies is a traditional past time in the Call of Duty Franchise and this is the second time we will see the zombie mode in Advanced Warfare. You will play one of four randomly selected characters that worked at the Atlas Research Facility. After the events of Outbreak in the first DLC, they were put in body bags and left behind in Hoard More storage outside of the Atlas Facility where the zombie infection has spread into the town. This makes a new interesting dynamic where you can rescue survivors.
As far as trophies goes, this is not the hardest zombies map, and obtaining the trophies comes down to luck, skill, and experience. All of these trophies can be achieved with solo play. However, I recommend 3 trophies with a team in co-op just to make life easier. They are MEAT IS MURDER, Love Tap and Abandon All Hope. This Call of Duty zombie mode only requires that you get up to a max wave of 25 in order to earn every trophy.
One thing you should keep in mind if you're aiming for trophies; you can earn trophies in Private Match or Public Match, but you must be in the game from the very start of Wave 1. If you spawn in after everyone else has already started then you will not earn any trophies. This is especially important if you're joining games via matchmaking solo or if you get kicked from a private match.
Step 1: Focus on MEAT IS MURDER
In this step, you could earn several of the trophies in the DLC. However, in order to complete the requirements, you may wish to forgo some of the other trophy requirements as to remove risk from getting the Easter egg steps done. Also, while doing the Easter egg, you will need the Magnetron Gun - Make sure you get 50 kills with it while you have it for the Popcorn trophy.
In this Step you will earn the following trophies:
Alight, Alright
Popcorn
MEAT IS MURDER
Climbing the Corporate Ladder
Step 2: Focus on saving 4 Survivors in one game
In this step, you could earn all but one of the trophies in the DLC. Your goal will be to save 4 survivors in one game. This could have been done in conjunction with the Easter egg. However, if you miss these with the Easter egg try to focus only on them now. You will need to reach round 22 to save the fourth survivor in one game. They appear around rounds 6, 11, 16, 22. In between rounds, go for the kill related trophies and upgrade your guns to help you defeat the later rounds.
In this Step you will earn the following trophies:
One Man's Poison...
Indirect Fire
Burgertown Escort Service
Abandon All Hope
Love Tap
And if you didn't get it while attempting MEAT IS MURDER, go for Climbing the Corporate Ladder
Step 3: Focus on The Grind Trophy and Clean-up
During this step, you will need to save 20 survivors total. This is a cumulative trophy, as I don't believe it to be possible to save 20 in one game. You save 4 by round 22. Just keep playing and saving survivors. You can play to about round 6, save the first one then die restart and just continue to save the first one as it is the easiest if you so choose to do so. Also during this step, get any trophies you may have missed in the other steps to finish off your 100%.
In this Step you will earn the following trophies:
Blood-Spattered Savior

Supremacy DLC
- Estimated trophy difficulty: 8/10 (Personal opinion)
- Offline trophies: 10 (8
, 2
)
- Online trophies: 0
- Approximate amount of time to 100%: 5-10 hours (Skill Dependent)
- Minimum number of playthroughs: 1 (Easter egg ~ Blow up the Carrier for Flotsam & Jetsam)
- Number of missable trophies: 0
- Glitched trophies: 0
- Does difficulty affect trophies?: N/A
- Do trophies stack?: N/A
- Do cheat codes disable trophies?: N/A
Supremacy is the third planned Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare DLC. While it does bring 4 maps from a map pack into competitive multiplayer, all of the trophies will be found in Exo Zombie mode. Zombies is a traditional pastime in the Call of Duty franchise and this is the third time we will see the zombie mode in Advanced Warfare. This is definitely the hardest of the exo-zombies yet mainly due to the grenade plinko puzzle part of the Easter Egg. You will play one of three randomly selected characters that worked at the Atlas Research Facility or the new character revealed in the intro cut scene movie. After the events of Infection in the second DLC, they were taken aboard a carrier and Oz has been shot – seemingly dead. This makes way for the new 4th character played by none other than Bruce Campbell himself. A new dynamic of disarming bombs has also been added to the gameplay, along with a few other surprises.
As far as trophies go, obtaining the trophies will come down to luck, skill, and experience. All of these trophies can be achieved in solo play. However, I recommend you do 1 trophy with a team in co-op just to make life easier. That being Flotsam & Jetsam. This Call of Duty zombie DLC will require that you get up to a max wave of 30 in order to earn every trophy.
One thing you should keep in mind if you're aiming for trophies; you can earn trophies in a Private Match or a Public Match, but you must be in the game from the very start of Wave 1. If you spawn in after everyone else has already started then you will not earn any trophies. This is especially important if you're joining games via matchmaking solo or if you get kicked from a private match, and choose to rejoin said match.
Step 1: Focus on Flotsam & Jetsam (the “Easter Egg”)
In this step, you could earn several of the trophies in the DLC. However, in order to complete the requirements, you may wish to forgo some of the other trophy requirements as to remove risk from getting the Easter Egg steps done. Also, while doing the Easter Egg, you will need the new teleport grenades - make sure you get 50 kills with them for the Telefragathon trophy.
In this Step you could earn the following trophies:
Ensign
Telefragathon
Flotsam & Jetsam
Admiral
Step 2: Focus on completing miscellaneous trophy objectives:
In this step, you could earn all of the trophies in the DLC. Your goal will be to complete the trophy objectives as early as possible so you’re not trying to do tricks in the later rounds. Some of these could have been done in conjunction with the Easter egg. However, if you miss these with the Easter egg try to focus only on them now. Try to get them in as early a round as possible. You can then choose to die and start over to always try them at early rounds or try to keep going and get them all done in one go.
In this Step you will earn the following trophies:
Slot Jockey
Right of First Defusal
Take Off, Hoser!
How low can you go?
Hugs
Mad Hops
Step 3: The Clean-up
During this step, you will need to survive until wave 30 if you have not already done so. Also during this step, get any trophies you may have missed in the other steps to finish off your 100%.
In this Step you will earn the following trophies:
Admiral

Reckoning DLC
OVERVIEW:
- Estimated trophy difficulty: 7/10 (Personal Opinion)
- Offline trophies: 10 (8
, 2
)
- Online trophies: 0
- Approximate amount of time to 100%: 10+ Hrs
- Minimum number of playthroughs: Multiple
- Number of missable trophies: 0

- Do trophies stack?: N/A
- Do cheat codes disable trophies?: N/A
USEFUL LINKS
Introduction:
Reckoning is the 4th and final installment to the Advanced Warfare DLC. This DLC brings four new maps to the multiplayer and the conclusion to Exo Zombies. You will also finally understand why Oz hates the Atlas corporation. This map is called Descent and you will start off on top of a tiny spire in middle of the ocean. This is the Atlas under water resort facility. You will spend the majority of your time below the waves in the bio spheres. This DLC’s Easter egg “Reunion” will test your Exo zombie skills to their fullest. Especially the Jump Challenge! On top of the normal zombie slaying, this DLC brings a new mode called Double Feature. Double Feature mode is a black and white mode that has no HUD which gives a very old school cinematic feel to it. In this mode you die easier, zombies are harder to kill, you only get credits for killing zombies, and if you die it's game over man! That’s right, one death and done. With the ability to fail challenges on Easter egg and Double feature mode, this could very well be hardest trophies in Advanced Warfare's Exo zombies.
Walkthrough:
Step 1: Focus on getting to round 20
In this step you will need to learn the map like the back of your hand. Try to make it to round 20 with the Blunderbuss so you can kill Oz with it. Learn where all the upgrade stations are located, and practice on the 2 different Oz fights, round 13 and 20. You will need to master the zone and these fights before you attempt Double Feature mode. Take this time to enjoy what Descent has to offer.
In this step you will earn the following Trophies:
Smooth Operator
Big Game
How the Mighty have Fallen
Step 2: Focus on completing Reunion aka the “Easter Egg”
Now that you know the map, you can attempt to work on this challenge riddled Easter Egg as you stay alive during the zombie onslaught and Oz fights. If you've played Zombies in Call of Duty before while attempting trophies, then it should go without saying to keep a zombie alive at the end of each round to work on the Easter Egg steps. Completing the Easter egg will unlock Double Feature mode.
In this step you will earn the following Trophies:
Reunion
Step 3: Double Feature Mode
Now that you beat the Easter Egg, you can access Double Feature mode at the start of map by holding down near the button that pops up as you walk by it. If there are more people in the party than just you, everyone will need to hit the button to activate Double Feature. Once everyone does this, you will restart the game with a black and white screen. This is Double Feature mode. Also, if someone else in your group has already completed the Easter Egg, everyone can still click the button to start it. It only requires that someone in the party has done the Easter Egg. This mode is hard since there is no HUD, only zombie kills give credits, and if you die once then you are out of the game. You must reach round 20 and beat Oz in this mode.
In this step you will earn the following Trophies:
Double Tap
Step 4: Clean up
Any of these trophies can be done during your multiple playthroughs. Combine these with step 1 or just do them at your leisure. This will complete your 100% for the Descent DLC.
In this step you will ean the following Trophies:
Trickshot
Nah I’m Good
K.O.
Coast to Coast
Size Does Matter
