A lot of the challenges in the Survivors of Ash event progress passively as you play Survival on Ashwood. This includes getting 1,000 kills, completing special rounds (Ravager rounds when the screen turns yellow), and getting critical kills (remember to aim for the head).

The main goal is to stay alive and healthy – play it safe, remember to buy armor, perks, and make use of Klaus, who’s in the cage on the northeast side of the map, to help you reach round 20. Doing so shouldn’t cause many issues, as long as you don’t back yourself into a wall.

The only challenge that requires additional effort is the trap one. There’s a trap in the Ashwood starting area. Find a lever on the wall that costs 2,000 points to activate, and interact with it. This activates a spinning trap inside the building and plays music to draw in zombies. Despite the music, you should also stand near the trap, so that zombies don’t wander off, targeting you instead.

One trap activation only counts towards the challenge once, so you need to buy 10 traps to complete the challenge. You get fewer points for killing enemies with the trap, but it’s an easy way to get rid of zombies and complete the challenge.
