Learn the easiest way to get the Daredevil Trophy in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II's Countdown mission by flashing and fragging enemies in the server room.
Alright, so you're trying to snag that Daredevil Trophy in Modern Warfare II, huh? It sounds tricky, but honestly, it's pretty straightforward once you know where to go. The best spot, in my opinion, is during the game's final mission, 'Countdown'.
Here's the plan: play through the mission like normal at first. You'll be doing some repelling and taking out enemies. Once you've pushed inside the skyscraper and are following Price, keep an eye out for the server room. It's not too far into the mission. Inside, you'll have a close-quarters battle with some heavily armored guards and a few others. Clear them out first.
After the server room is secure, you'll see a door leading to another part of the server area. Now, this is where the magic happens. As you approach that door, two enemies will pop out and smoke it up. One's got a riot shield, and the other is right behind him. My go-to move here is to flashbang the doorway and myself, then immediately toss a frag grenade right at the door. You can then duck behind one of the server stacks to stay safe from the explosion while those two get taken care of. If you pull this off, you should get the Daredevil trophy!
Pro-Tip: If you're a visual learner, there's a short video linked that shows exactly how to do this. It's super helpful if you want to see the timing.
Other Spots for the Daredevil Trophy
Now, if 'Countdown' just isn't your jam, don't sweat it. There are a few other places you can try this out:
- Ghost Time: When you're playing as Gaz, you can use the stacked cargo area. Lure some guards into a narrow alleyway, then flashbang yourself and them before spraying them down.
- Recon by Fire: Again as Gaz, you'll be breaching rooms to get intel in the first compound. Find a smaller room, toss a flashbang inside, blind yourself and the enemies, then take them out.
- Cartel Protection: Right at the start of this mission, you breach a compound. The first corner has a couple of enemies. You can flash the area and yourself, then aim at the corner. Two enemies can line up perfectly, and you might even catch one leaving the door nearby for an easy multi-kill transfer.
Good luck snagging that trophy! It's a fun little challenge.
