How to unlock the Big Boy achievement in Dishonored - Definitive Guide

The absolute easiest and quickest way to do this achievement is similar to King Fishiz's solution - go to Mission Select and choose Lady Boyle's Party. However, from the start, head left rather than right. Proceed down the left road and you'll come across a Watch Officer fighting a pack of Weepers. In this area, there's a large bridge-like construction you can Blink up, and then over on to a balcony. Proceed through the rooms and up the stairs (beware of more Weepers) and you'll come out on to the rooftops. Peer over the edge to your right - there's a Tallboy, completely stationary, waiting to be murdered. No lining up a shot, no timing - just jump/ blink and make sure you wait for the proper trigger to appear. I got this achievement in about a minute this way!

Does killing a tall boy count towards the no kills achievement?

I am doing a low chaos, no kills run currently. Whenever I fancy getting a cheevo that involves killing I save, do it, then reload. Easy.

Perfect. Easily done with level 1 blink. Just stood on the top of the corner of the rooftop, aimed blink just above Tall Boy, and BAM, drop assassinated.

Only a kill with the assassination animation counts. In several attempts, I blinked over and successfully killed a Tall Boy with a sword slash but the achievement popped only after the sword in the neck one.

another very easy Achievement. You see the first two tallboy on the 5th Mission Lady Boyle's last Party. You need need the Power Blink II for that (ok maybe you can jump on them, but with Blink its very easy). Blink from low or high Ground to them and press RT for the Kill - Achievement unlocked

You can see me doing this at (3.24 min, Timelink: http://a.wiiare.in/SLL85k)

Here is Another Video guide on how to acquire this Cheevo.


Here I am showing you how to acquire the Big Boy Achievement in Dishonored. To get it, you must kill a Tallboy with only your Sword/Knife.

Boot up Level 5 (That's the one with they Boyle Family Party) or later for this baby.

Have both Blink 2 and Stop time (not just slow time) and then blink up and stab the Tallboy.

Stop time means EVERY attack is an assassination, and Blink 2 is needed to reach the height of the tall boy.

If you don't waste runes you should have enough runes around Lady Boyle's party, if not you can also do this easily in mission 8 if you have the runes for it.

Blink 2 and Stop time is uber important in the ghost run throughs, so you should have the runes there.

Any time you see a Tallboy is a chance for this. Stealth as close to him as possible and aim your blink directly above him. Once you blink, you'll be prompted (and need to react quickly) to perform a drop assassination. Do so, and enjoy your achievement.

High Chaos

A tallboy is an enemy in a machine which is very tall and lanky. You start seeing them in Mission 5. You must use "blink" to get up to where the human's head/neck is and assassinate the enemy. It is a good idea to do this using the Bend Time power.
