The developers of Baldur’s Gate 3 designed most questlines so that they may be completed in multiple ways. Thus, giving the players more freedom in how they approach situations. This guide represents one method that is confirmed to unlock this achievement.
A full achievement guide is available here: https://tigorestips.com/dnd/baldurs-gate-3-achievements-trop...
Create a manual save before going down this path.
Inside the crypt, you will need to take out your competitor. Then, agree to the ritual and follow the promptings. You may want to ungroup from your party and leave them behind so they don’t disapprove of your choices. If the bathing cutscene doesn’t trigger after killing the final target, interact with Sarevok to start it. The Murder in Baldur’s Gate achievement or trophy will unlock after rising from the pool.
After becoming an Unholy Assassin of Bhaal, you will now have access to reach the Temple of Bhaal.
Once you enter the door, you will notice the game auto saving. This is because you are about to be ambushed. This can be avoided by using a potion of invisibility on a fighter or similar character who can deal massive damage and take it as well. Have the character run to the top tower across the bridge and solo kill the Farslayer of Bhaal Ghislev which will end the fight. This enemy will teleport off the tower and other enemies will join the fight. Be ready to focus all effort on the Farslayer.
Now, head down to the large circular area with a table on the east side of the room. Say whatever you want during the interaction with Orin. At some point, she will ask her father to join her and the battle will begin. Ignore all other targets and only attack Orin until she drops. Doing so will unlock the First Blood achievement.

Open Hand Temple
Optional Step: When you reach the beginning of Act 3, head over to the Open Hand Temple on the west side of the area. There you will discover a murder while talking with Sister Yannis. Agree to help investigate and gain entry to the 3rd floor of Fraygo’s Flophouse where you will find a Bloodstained Parchment on a desk hidden behind a wardrobe. Next, meet with Valeria in Sharess’ Caress and obtain a pass for the Lower City. Let the guards blocking the Lower City know that you are investigating a series of murders and they will let you through.Lower City
Once you’re in the Lower City, you will have markers on your map showing where the remaining targets are located. Kill a target and you will be approached about the Assassins of Bhaal. Kill another and you will be given the passphrase to enter their lair. Make sure you grab the hand of one of the victims as proof. The door to the crypt is revealed after pressing a button hidden behind a painting next to the quest marker.Inside the crypt, you will need to take out your competitor.

Finding the Temple of Bhaal
The Temple of Bhaal is located in the sewers under the Lower City. After becoming an Unholy Assassin of Bhaal, you can gain entry through the door next to the Undercity Ruins waypoint. While interacting with the door, let it know that you are an Unholy Assassin of Bhaal (“I have proven my faith…”) and show it the Amulet of Bhaal.Once you enter the door, you will notice the game auto saving. This is because you are about to be ambushed. This can be avoided by using a potion of invisibility on a fighter or similar character who can deal massive damage and take it as well.

This enemy will teleport off the tower and other enemies will join the fight. Be ready to focus all effort on the Farslayer.
Temple of Bhaal
After the Farslayer is defeated, all other enemies will vanish. You should be in the northeast corner of the room, next to a large archway which is the pay to continue forward. Make sure you long rest before continuing. Then, enter the next area and work your way down the stairs on the right/east. They will lead to the door of Bhaal’s Temple after you pass by the waypoint. Use the Amulet of Bhaal once again to open this door, gaining entry to the temple.Now, head down to the large circular area with a table on the east side of the room. Say whatever you want during the interaction with Orin. At some point, she will ask her father to join her and the battle will begin. Ignore all other targets and only attack Orin until she drops.

Killing Orin isn't the issue in this fight. Its her annoying minions constantly going invisible!

I was only able to obtain this achievement when I was NOT playing as the dark urge. As the dark urge you fight Orin solo while the cultists watch so they were not performing a ritual.

While the solution to this is really simple, the method is quite difficult. I happened to get this achievement on my first playthrough against her (As I didn't know you could get rid of the cultists.)
Regardless, this is how the fight can be done, every turn Orin receives 7 stacks of unstoppable from the ritual chant. This can be quite annoying as any damage you try to do just get mitigated to 1 until you've gotten rid of her unstoppable stacks. Even then, she regains it all next turn.
So what can you do? Well, Orin's unstoppable mitigates all damage to 1. But, it does not prevent her from receiving status effects. Effects like bleed and poison are great at chipping away at unstoppable and eventually allow your party to pummel her regardless whether she receives those stacks. In addition, some attacks such as magical missile are EVEN better at clearing her unstoppable stacks as it's multiple firings in one.
Either way, Orin's fight with all her cultists chanting and granting her unstoppable can be annoying. But using status effects like bleed, poison and attacks like magic missile can very much so help. Keep your party healed and buffed and you should be able to bring her down and earn that achievement!
Good luck hunting gamers!

Orin is an easy boss who attacks little and in general the pumped up squad receives very little damage in this battle, but there is a problem: at the beginning of each round Orin is given 10 stacks of invulnerability. Those in each round, the first 10 hits on it will deal an average of 1 damage.
Therefore, the best assistant in this battle is scrolls, castes and classes that deal many blows per turn.
For example, a warrior (Laezel by default) deals up to 6 hits per turn through the “impulse to action” and the trait for two-handed weapons.
Also a magic arrow, otherworldly bolt, multi-target arrow, etc. and so on.
With all this we remove invulnerability and then add damage, 2-3 moves should be enough.

In addition to the tip. If during the battle you do not have enough actions to easily kill Orin in 1-2 rounds, then you can use speed potions or acceleration spells. Scrolls with the acceleration spell can be purchased at the Mages Guild near the “Central Wall of the Lower Gord” waypoint (the building has a blue roof in the screenshot).
Additionally, at the Mages Guild you can buy scrolls of the “Chain of Lightning” spell, which will help kill sectarians who perform the ritual and are protected by the shelter spell
