How to unlock the Volatile Debris achievement in Control - Definitive Guide

This ability is actually called Shield Barrage in the in-game ability upgrades section. It becomes available after you obtain the Shield ability from the related sidequest and then unlock the second ability (Shield 2) in that skill tree section.

Once the skill is obtained, simply activate your shield by holding LB, and then release it while near enough to an enemy to cause damage. The ability doesn't do a whole lot of damage by itself, so it's quicker to wear down the enemy's health through other methods first, before landing the fatal blow with the ability.

@cjanderson should I restart my abilities and put them all of my shield excluding a bit of my energy?

don;t do what i did and leave this TO THE VERY END as i had to totally respec my charachter to be able to put 6 points into the shield options. (luckily i had no need for extra money so could spend the 30k quite easily)

First thing you need is to unlock shield barrage 1.

Easiest way to do this was to lure hiss charged enemies (the ones that blow up when they get close to you), close enough to hit them with the shield barrage and they promptly explode resulting in a quick kill towards this achievement. Key places I've experienced them to spawn often are immediately after you exit the elevator in research sector and NSC power plant area.

To execute the shield barrage, simply hold LB until they swoop down close to you and then release in their direction. They will drop to the ground and explode (you should probably move away before they do so). Repeat 9 more times and you're done in no time.

Before you can start on this achievement, you must upgrade your Shield ability up to Shield Barrage. You gain the Shield ability during the "A Good Defense" side mission. When you have enough ability points (6 in total to get to its node), head to a clear point and select ABILITIES. Once upgraded, just hurt the enemy to leave it with as little health as possible. Hold down and run up to them then release. Repeat 9 more times. Remember, it must kill them for it to count.

You need to level up the corresponding skill in the shield line and then finish off enemies with the help of fragments that fly out when you release . The main thing is to weaken the enemy first, because the damage from fragments is not very large
