How to Get Silenced Weapon Kills

Use the Combat Controller Loadout

The Combat Controller is one of the available default loadouts that come with a suppressed Striker. If you haven't unlocked any suppressors yet, use this loadout to start taking on relevant challenges.

Equip a Gun with a Suppressor

Suppressors are available as Muzzle attachments for almost all guns with a few exceptions like the Tyr and Crossbow.

There are plenty of suppressors to choose from at the gunsmith, each with different traits. Test them out at the Firing Range and select the one that suits your play style!

Kill Other Players in Multiplayer

Once you have equipped your preferred gun with a suppressor, jump into a Multiplayer match and frag out.

Suppressors render you Undetectable by Radar, meaning you won't be visible on enemy radar whenever you shoot. Use this mechanic to your advantage by flanking and surprising unsuspecting enemies.
