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

To get this you have to perform 50 takedowns which can either be lethal or non lethal. I would reccomend doin mostly non lethal so you can make them go towards the "Consciousness is Over-rated"
"Knock out 100 enemies in a single playthrough." achievement. you must have at least one battery cell charged to perform a takedown and if you have the upgrade where you can take down two guys at once this goes by pretty quick.

I would also suggest using non-lethal for the reason being that lethal take-downs attract more attention from other guards.

extra tip to make it more quick : when you are in chinatown levels there are lots of places where you will find cops walking around make your self invisible and do a NON LETHAL TAKEDOWN !!! and go away you will see that the other cops will REVIVE there co worker !! so rinse and repeat !!!

p.s.
make sure you dont get seen as they will blow your head of

Takedowns are performed by sneaking or going up to a target, and tapping . This will disable the target but will not kill him/her. Holding however will perform a Lethal takedown, which you do not want if you're going for Pacifist. Only takedowns performed on enemies (those that turn alarmed/hostile-on-sight or are quest-scripted) will count, not Civilians.

If you have not achieved this by the time you arrive on Panchaea, then knockout all the residents who have gone mad as they are considered hostile threats. Credits Wolfwood.

Just remember if you're going for one playthrough, you must only use none lethal takedowns (tap ). Doing so will not void the 'Pacifist' achievement and will also increase the counter for the achievement 'Consciousness is Over-rated'. 

Right from the first mission, you'll be introduced to how to take people out, so from here I'd recommend you try and get your 50 takedowns as and when you can. If you see an opportunity, then take it but don't rush. It's easier to do this achievement at the beginning of the game rather than later on when it could become more risky for you.

If you want to get all the trophies in one playthrough, you need to click, not hold down . Otherwise, you won't see the Pacifist trophy. And you will get this trophy faster

Don't try to complete this trophy on your first playthrough. Better complete it the second time you play, along with the Pacifist and Foxiest of the Hounds trophies
