war planet online: global conquest players guide

The events are now live, and the achievement isn't that hard during the event. Keep an eye out for these events going live and it may be easier to obtain this achievement. They are described in the patch notes here: Currently there are several that say they can be purchased from the 'Halloween trader' or are available as a reward from the 'Spooky Carnival.' These are both brand new features with the new update and don't appear to be active in the game yet. The only other way I might recommend unlocking this is to meet the requirements of one of the locked exclusive avatars or frames.

I have been playing this game pretty much daily since release and have only managed to see the trader come around maybe 15 times, and never noticed him ever offering holographic shards, so if you are wanting to obtain this achievement without paying any real money it could take a very long time. The trader's offers are random, and you can pay 1,000 medals to refresh his inventory or 2,000 medals to refresh his inventory thereafter. The trader appears at the bottom left of your base, underneath the main power supply. The trader appears randomly every few days and goes away after a set period of time. Holographic shards can only be earned in game through two methods - either you must pay real money to purchase them in an offer (offers are fairly random and change every day, and there is no guarantee that any given offer will provide holographic shards) or it is possible the trader may offer some sort of deal for shards in exchange for a free currency (I have not seen this offer myself, but per the comments it takes 5.2k medals to purchase 30 holographic shards). Unfortunately, the only way to obtain the exclusive avatars or frames are either purchasing them with holographic shards or meeting the requirements for the ones with a lock over the image. 'Free', 'Premium', and 'Exclusive.' The exclusive ones have an orange/yellow background. The avatars and frames are separated into three different categories. This is the area where you can select avatars and frames.

Once this is open, you can click the 'Edit' button underneath your picture. When you click your player's picture on the top left of the screen, it brings you to your player profile. This achievement is for using an exclusive avatar or frame.
