What's the fastest way to unlock Sludge?

At 125 the increments start stretching out, so efficiency matters more than raw playtime. Keep engagements short and lethal — clean precision kills at comfortable range — and avoid swapping weapons mid-mission, which splits your progress across counters. Melee and Specials just need volume, so close distance fast and keep the chain going.
