A Vanguard player has found the ideal spot on Season 1’s Paradise map to farm longshots and quickly complete the camo grind. 

Call of Duty: Vanguard’s camo grind is one of the most time-consuming we’ve seen yet. Each level has over 70 levels to grind, and many can’t be completed naturally, so unlocking the Atomic camo isn’t for the faint of heart. 

Each weapon requires around 100 longshots, which can be difficult in the confines of Vanguard’s small maps. However, one player has found the perfect spot to farm them on Season 1’s Paradise map.

Getting longshots can be one of the most frustrating camo challenges in Vanguard, as they can’t be completed in smaller maps like Shipment. But, Reddit user ‘TheRplevin’ has revealed the perfect spot to farm longshots on Season 1’s Paradise.

How to get easy longshots in Vanguard

TheRPlevin showed that if you spawn on the C side of the map, you simply head back to the cliffs where you can inch round and see into the enemy’s spawn. In this clip, we can see the player getting multiple long shots on enemies as they continue to spawn. 

They said that they managed to get 18 kills in a row before the spawns flipped, which is almost a fifth of the 100 kills needed. But, this spot is only really effective in Hardcore modes because of Core’s higher time-to-kill.

It’s very likely that Sledgehammer Games will patch this spot soon, so you should take advantage of it while you can. But some users believe that Sledgehammer may have already patched it.

However, the Paradise map still has a ton of great sightlines you can take advantage of if you’re looking to complete the longshot challenges as quickly as possible.
