How to unlock the I'll take the best you have. achievement in El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Definitive Guide
As the achievement says, you must steal the weapon from each enemy on the level. This is done by pressing the purify button (LB) when the enemy is stunned, indicated by a blue aura around the enemy. Therefore, to get every weapon, you have to ensure you stun every enemy before you defeat them. To do this, I played on Hard difficulty since I was defeating some enemies without stunning them on Easy and Normal. I also used the Special Armor you get from collecting all of Ishtar's bones to make things easier, but this is not necessary. To ensure I stunned each enemy without killing them, I just kept using the counter attack move (Hold X) over and over, and no other attacks. After a few hits with this, you'll hear armor shatter and get a blue flash indicating they are stunned. Hurry over and steal the weapon before the enemy recovers. If you miss a weapon, I would presume you can reload your last save, but I didn't do this when I got it, so I'm not entirely sure.
You do not have to collect every weapon during the boss/mini-boss fights. Just the ones wielded by the standard enemies.
Finally, make sure you fight all the enemies on the level. There are a couple places where you can proceed through the level without fighting a group of enemies. In particular, when you jump up using one of the green spring platforms through a tiny hole. From there, you can proceed right towards the rest of the level, but if you go left (towards a freeman) you will encounter some enemies. Also, make sure you follow the paths left just before each section of swinging platforms you have to jump on. More enemies are off in those areas too.
Good luck.

Not sure if this was a glitch, or not. I got this achievement on my first playthrough on normal difficulty. I did not take every weapon from every enemy by a long shot. Perhaps it means to just take at least one of each weapon? Or I just got lucky? Anyway, just thought I would let everyone know.

You can load if you miss a weapon and still get the achievement.

Rather self-explanatory, during Chapter 10 you will be faced by several groups of enemies. Just make sure to steal the weapon of every opponent as you progress. If done correctly, the trophy will unlock when you have successfully completed the level.
