I have a whopping six lol.

Most of them from piloting a dual gauss 2 med laser K2. Good times.

The title I really want is "Shredder", in due time. =)

Most of my headshots were cheesed off of pre-rescale catapults and bullying potatoes with the 3 flamer 6 SPL viper

Progress so far

Got some during the gauss/ppc days, now...not so much. I never really tried going for them though, maybe I should try.

Oh yes, its sooo easy, it can like, never fail, Im getting 4 headshots per game at least.. Except if Im the first one spotted and they run after me. Or when I shut one down, my team kills him. Or if another enemy is nearby and shoots me, so my cockpit shakes too much, or shoots off my weapons. Or my team is lurming the enemy and I cant see ****. Or he has non-heat-weapons. Or if he just walks away without shooting. Or he calls for help and gets assistance. Or I aim 3 pixels too high or too low and the enemy now knows my plan. Or I try to flank and my team just dies within 2 minutes. Or there is no enemy alone, all in a pack and I cant get one alone. Also I have to facetank them so close, I sometimes get teamkilled. So yes, its the super easy way, thats why we see everyone running around with the Achievemnt ;:
Dual Gauss only works if the enemy stripped cockpit armor. Especially since the skill tree, mechs can have up to 41 (or 42?) Cockpit Hitpoints with maxed out armor quirks. Dual Heavy Gauss works, but then you dont have llong range, have to get into Brawl And its way harder to hit the enemys head when youre being shot than waiting for the right moment 600m away from him while he didnt even noptice you. So.. meh to the dual gauss idea.

You realize that i have 1k Headshots adn did it the long range way with double gauss. ? I am currently at 1411 Headshots. Look to the left and read my title or look at teh bottom and use the link.
I did the flamer spl laser way for 3-4 days which netted me over 30 headshots in 25 games. Yes flamer close up headshots are the easy way. When you can get 50 headshots per week in a minimal amount of games compared to teh other route it is relatively easy.

Only times I get headshots are when random atlases are trying to facetank and shoot me down and then overheat in front of me. Killed like 5+ atlas that way already during the games I have played.

Yes, I saw that and nice job on that one! Still, I didnt say it is impossible, just since the skill tree was involved quite unlikely that you kill an enemy with dual gauss by one shot. But I am currently trying with my Dual HeavyGauss Sleipnir and it worked about 4 times in the last week or so..

Ohhthe skill tree... it took my headshot per game rate and halved it. But at the end i still got enough enemys with doual gauss and lasers since manny poeple optimize for 31 stotal hitpoints so a singe doual gauss shot cannot kill teh but forget about the lasers that may give a damage tick. It is the harder way, but i felt much more rewarding to me when u got a headshot.
