How to unlock the Raise the Stakes achievement in Dead Space - Definitive Guide

In Chapter 2, head to the Main Lab where the game will show you a brief tutorial. After the lockdown starts, use Kinesis (cn_LT + cn_B) to grab one of the poles with glowing tips off the ground. Then, throw (cn_RT) it at one of the necromorphs to unlock the achievement.

This trophy is obtained for pinning an enemy to a surface. For this you need the kinesis, which you can use from the second chapter "ICU". The Kinesis Module cannot be missed; you have to collect it in order to progress further.
Pointed objects already appear in the course of the second chapter "ICU" and can be recognized by a small glow as weapon-capable objects. If you're looking for the Shockpad during the second chapter, the game will draw your attention to it and show you the tutorial for it. Alternatively, you can also use the opponent's pointed limbs as thrown objects, they have the same effect.

I gained this at the first lockdown in the medical deck as XEtra3mgamer states but, I could not do it with a limb, it simply was not effective enough. It may be the case that it will be more effective as the suit is upgraded, but I haven’t got that far yet..

Make sure it's a sharp limb, aim for center mass on the enemy, and make sure they're relatively close for a wall. Under those circumstances, pins are relatively reliable.

Easiest to do this in Medical when you get hit with the first lockdown. Pick up a rod or Necromorph claw and just aim centre mass. You can do this at literally any point of the game

On my YouTube channel I've created a short video covering unlocking this achievement. I obtained this achievement while playing Chapter 2: Intensive Care. While going through Medical you will be locked down in a room with two levels. In this room there are metal rods which you can grab with Kinesis by holding cn_LT and hitting cn_B. As long as you hold cn_LT Isaac will hold the rod. Line up your shot to hit a Necromorph and pull cn_RT to pin it to a wall. This should also be do-able with the Necromorph's sharp appendages once severed. Just grab, aim, and stick them to the wall. Also an effective attack to save ammo.

To get this achievement, you’ll need to use Kinesis to grab a pole or spike (marked with a glowing blue ring on the end) and launch it into a Necromorph, so that it’s pinned to the wall. The easiest place to get this is near the beginning of Chapter 2, as you enter the top floor of the Main Lab. Here you’ll get a little tutorial prompt telling you that you can throw items at enemies, and there’s loads of poles around you to pick up. Two Necromorphs will spawn (one behind you, one in front) shortly after you enter, so grab a spike, and chuck it at one, and the achievement should pop.
