Spare Konstantin Brayko.

How to unlock the A Price On Mercy achievement in Alpha Protocol - Definitive Guide

Save manually once you're fighting him. In the convo following his defeat, choose to spare him, and this acheivement is yours. Reload your save, defeat him again, choose to execute him, and you'll get the "One Less Gangster" acheivement.

Boss is much easier to beat if you :
- did Taipei first : buy intel from Steven Heck that will mess with his drugs. If you're stuck at the boss fight without having done Taipei, load last safehouse checkpoint, and in the mission select screen, press RT then LT, and select Taipei safehouse. Try Moscow again after befriending Steven Heck and buying his intel.
- chose the data over saving Albatross/Sie (unless you're playing veteran, in which case you can do both), since 100% intel on Brayko gives you a +5% damage perk on him, while saving Albatros/Sie gives you a 20% endurance recharge rate perk.
- use a flashbang (equip a few of them before starting the mission) when he takes his wiff (or when he's running after you) and take that opportunity (he'll be stunned) to shoot him so as to drain his resistance away (the blue bar above his health bar), then headshot him with a maxed out crack shot (pistol skill). Pistol is the best anti-boss weapon. So be sure to level your pistol skills as much as possible.

Great tip about loading back to the safehouse and going to Taipei to meet Steven Heck to unlock the intel to taint Brayko's coke. Brayko was 1,000,000,000,000 times easier after doing this.

All I had to do was Chain Shot him in stage one until he coked up in stage two, then run around and avoid him and his cronies and get a few shotgun blasts in when I could. Before I knew it, the fight was over.

Thumbs up from me, man.

"A Price on Mercy" is awarded for sparing the life of Konstantin Brayko during the second to last Moscow mission. You must spare Konstantin Brayko if you are pursuing the "Ask Questions First, Shoot Later" (https://www.trueachievements.com/a45189/ask-questions-f....htm) achievement.

At the end of the mission "Assault Brayko's Mansion", you will have to fight Konstantin. The fight itself is simple, but you have to be on your toes the whole time. When the fight starts, do as much damage as you can to him right away, as the more you do to him now, the less time it will take to finish him later. After he's taken enough damage, he will stop for a second. Once the scene is finished, he will begin running at you with his knife. Shooting while running back is one of the few options you have, and when he gets too close, sprint away. Eventually, he will fall to his knees, during which he will be vulnerable.

If you don't kill him by this point, a bright light will flash, and he will have his SMG's again. Also, several of his men will come in, so take them out right away. At this point, the pattern will keep repeating itself until you finally take Brayko down, so keep at it.

Once taken down, you'll finally get the chance to speak with him. Just make sure at the end of all it all, you spare him.
