Lachmann Sub (MP5) Camo Challenges & Tips for Completing Them

By
Shane Williams

The MP5, aka the Lachmann Sub in Modern Warfare 2, is one of the most iconic SMGs in the CoD franchise. This SMG performs well at mid ranges due to its excellent mobility, handling, and recoil control. As you level up, though, there are base camos to beat. If you’re wondering what the Lachmann Sub camo challenges are. We aim to help you out with that.

Here is a look at the Lachmann Sub Camo Challenges and tips on how to complete each one.

The Camo Challenges are as follows:

Lachmann Sub Challenges Tips

Two off the 4 basic challenges are fairly simple to get. Getting 50 Kills with the Lachmann Sub will happen gradually whilst playing so you dont need to think about it, then for the “Get 10 Double Kills with the Lachmann Sub” you’ll ideally want to play objective-based game modes, such as Hardpoint, Domination or Headquarters, as you’ll constantly have a enemies sitting around the objective allowing you to grab two easy kills. If you’re find that the Lachmann Sub is not performing to your liking, then consider checking out our Lachmann Sub loadout and class set-up as it’ll will improve the weapons stats to allow you to win most short to medium range gunfights.

Next up, you’ll want to “Get 50 Kills using a Suppressor with the Lachmann Sub” which will be slightly harder then previous challenges as it’ll decrease handling. The best way to get through this challenge is to equip the Forge Tac Delta 4, as it only decreases the range a little. Like with Challenge 2 you’ll want to stick with objective-based as it’ll make it’ll make it easier for you to pick off enemies whilst they’re distracted instead going up against enemies focusing on kills in Team Deathmatch. Finally, we move onto Challenge 4 which will require you to “Get 10 Hipfire kills using the Lachmann Sub”, so stick with Hardpoint or Domination and use this weapon on the smaller maps like the Mercado Las Almas as the MP5 will struggle on long-distance maps such as Taraq.

Lachmann Sub Gold Camo Challenge and Higher Mastery Level Challenges

Once you’ve completed the four basic camos you’ll move onto the Lachmann Sub Gold Camo Challenge which is a lot easier to complete. All you need to do is get three kills without dying ten times to get the gold camo. Team Deathmatch is probably a better mode to play for this challenge as you dont have to worry about the objective, so you can find somewhere to hide out, so you can pick of enemies by surprise making it easier to wrack up the three killstreak. Upon completion of the Lachmann Sub Gold Camo Challenge you’ll need to unlock Gold for the remaining 7 SMGs before you can move onto the Lachmann Sub Platinum Camo Challenge.

This Camo is a little more difficult, as you need to get long-distance kills. Here we recommend sitting on long angles in Invasion maps, or playing long angles of Taraq or Embassy to get the kills. If you mount it to the wall by pressing DualSense-Stick-R. Additionally, if you’re finding long-shots hard to pull off, then try one of the magnified scopes, such as the VLK 4.0 Optic or Forge Tac Delta 4 as it’ll make seeing enemies in the distance easier.

Once you’ve obtained all 51 Platinum weapons you’ll finally move onto the Lachmann Sub Polyatomic Camo Challenge which requires you to 25 headshots. Stick with whatever build you as that works with your playstyle to get it. We recommend being close to mid range whilst using the Cronen Mini Red Dot to make it easier to line up your shots. Stick with none-objective based gamemodes like TDM as it’ll make it easier for you to avoid being in situations where you’re facing 3+ enemies.

This concludes the Lachmann Sub camo challenges for MW2. Good luck farming those challenges, getting gorgeous gold and pretty platinum and other hard to graft for skins. If we happen to catch the requirements for Orion, we will update this page with the relevant information.
