What counts as a 'tactical takedown'

[jessb321]

I'm trying to do these 'tactical takedowns' for the challenge, but I have no clue what actually defines a 'tactical' takedown.

headshots (not sure if lethel is included)

cqc'ing and choke hold (i think u need to do it without being spotted).

Yeah, lethal is included.

Pretty sure a hint said it only counts when it's outside the weapons effective range though

Hold-ups

You are right. Have a pistol that has 35m Effective range? Make a first time head shot (meaning do not hit another part of his body first) from 36m or more. Same with all other weapons. This includes lethal.
Hold-ups count. And if that 25% chance to resist pops up, just grab them, and choke. Tactical!
Edit: I suck at posts. More info.

I too am about to try the 10 tactical-takedowns for mission 49 Subsistence Occupational forces..

-you get 3 S+ for combat and 3 S+ for R+D...
***Think we all agree= we want the 3 S+ R&D... R&D are more difficult to come by S+ or S++..

-I dunno how the (online/yellow) combate drployment works with the randomness of the rewards. but R&D isn't very common on my game..It's always combat,medical,and SUpport..
leaving Base development,intel and R&D @ss'd out..kind abalances out I'm 104-107 in all departments except combat is 107 and R&D is 104..ugh!! I just need 1 more point for development unlock and for the wormhole generator FOB thingy....

---I have no idea how to go about this missions since last time I did the cheese method to get the S,,***you know---go north, hide behind house and Fulton the two tanks..block road with horse...

**a dead/unconscious body works the same as D-horse in the road= TANKS STOP!
Never tried jumping out and scaring them lol
reminds me of Deadshot in Gotham Knight ANimated cartoon/movie
"you're the 1st person Batman to ever try to stop my bullets by jumping in fronmt of them" haha gnarly!

I suspect this is gonna be aggravating..you need 10 tactical takedowns.

If you get a head shot out side of the guns range you get a tactical takedown and a headshot.

Tactical takedowns are neutralisations of unsuspecting enemies either by headshots from outside weapon's range or any form of CQC. If the target enters 'suspision' state by seeing a dead body or taking a tranq shot in its armor and stays in it for more than couple of seconds you can't TT it until enemy soldier calms down, at least not with a firearm. Another thing to be noted - if you try to perform a choke takedown from a crouched position and you start performing CQC strikes instead, do not try to finish it with a hold takedown - it won't be counted as tactical. Continue striking instead. And the last thing of importance - if you try to sneak up on someone and that guy spots you on a last couple of meters but you manage to rush him and neutralise with either strikes or throw it will be counted as TT.

Rocket fist also gives tactical takedowns.
