How to unlock the First Takedown achievement in Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Definitive Guide

This achievement is for performing your first Take Down.

Deus Ex: Human RevolutionFirst TakedownThe First Takedown achievement in Deus Ex: Human Revolution worth 5 pointsPerform your first Takedown. Civilians don't count, so be nice.


This is a very easy achievement. In Chapter 2 when you first enter the Sarif Plant, the story will give you a short tutorial on how to perform takedowns.

Takedowns cost 1 enery bar, but if your on your last energy bar, you can wait for it to recharge.

Move up to the first patrolling enemy and do either a Non-Lethal take down (tap B) or do a Lethal takedown (hold B). If you perform the Lethal takedown, the noise will attract the attention of the other guards. Also, performing non-lethal takedowns net your 20 more xp than a lethal takedown.

Easily done and the achievement should be yours.

To take down a enemy press B when your close, a short tap will disable an enemy. If you hold B you will perform a kill takedown.

Takedowns cost one energy bar, if you don't have enough energy, you cannot perform a takedown.

Just to make it clear, either form of takedown (lethal or non) will work for the achievement.

During Chapter 2 you will be given a tutorial on takedowns once you enter the Sarif Plant.

You will need 1 full energy bar to perform the maneuver. Stealth your way up to the enemy. You have 2 choices to take him down. Tapping cn_O once will be a Non-Lethal takedown. You will know if this was successful if the enemy is laying on the ground with one of those "Zzz" bubbles above his head.

Your other option is to hold cn_O to perform a Lethal takedown. This takedown is louder and can attract other enemies. The enemy will have a large red "X" bubble above his head if you perform a Lethal takedown.

Good luck!

Neutrolization is considered murder (keep ), and neither fatally knocking out an enemy (short press ).
