How to unlock the The Nutcracker achievement in Fable II - Definitive Guide

Contrary to what everyone else has said there is a much simpler way of getting this achievement without needing to ever go into combat. First, make sure you have Dexterous styles level 4, this will allow you to select specific body parts to target while aiming. Go to Murgo in Bowerstone, now turn your safety off, press the RB to do so. You can now aim freely at Murgo, hold Y, hold LT, aim down and release Y for a groin shot. The catch is Murgo will never die, will not move from the spot where he is standing and will take the groin shots without putting up a fight, also you are usually far enough away to not alarm anyone of your actions meaning no combat necessary.

*You need the See the Future DLC to unlock this achievement.

This is easier and a life saver. I killed all the Red and Blue Shadow things so I was worried this would be a lot harder, but it was actually easier. Remember that when you're doing this Safety OFF!

This method DOES work! Thanks for the tip! One proviso; if any townspeople show up, you might want to turn your Safety back ON so you don't accidentally kill an innocent.
In my case, I inadvertently nailed the Town Crier more than once, and not in a good way!

First, you must make sure you have Dexterous styles level 4, which allows you to select specific body parts to target while aiming with your ranged weapon.

Then, simply toggle spots to shoot and aim at the "Groin" region. And shoot.

Note, it does not have to be the shot that kills them, any shot that hit's the groin counts.

Easily done on the Red Shadows in the Snowglobe.

I found this achievement very easy to get on the Bandit Coast. The bandits just line up for you and you can just take them out one at a time.

I just started playing again after my x-box got stolen and have been buying only the dexterous styles but am only up to level three.

I was lucky enough to have a friend give me pretty much everything he had so I just started the game with the strongest weapons, and several experience potions and health potions, so I'm close to getting it, and I haven't played for more than 3 hours.

I'll try getting this achievement, it's nice to know it doesn't have to be the kill shot :)

I got this one very easy. Just wait till you see a blue hollow man and keep shooting him in the groin. He won't die, so you just need one of them.

After you get Dextrous Skills level 4, take aim at an enemy and use LT to sub-target a body part. Aim down for the groin and release Y to fire. Repeat 24 more times for the achievement.

If you have shot 25 or more groins before downloading "See the Future", you will get the achievement when you load the game with the DLC for the first time.

After receiving the red seal from the school teacher, go through the red door, when you come across the red shadow men in the room where the door only opens when you kill them all red shadow men, destroy all but one of them with your magic, then used a ranged weopon to target the groin, just keep repeating until you get achievement. Kill last red shadow using magic and exit room. easy

Including what the others have said about getting your Dex Level to 4 you can also kill villagers, and then start taking nut shots at the guards who come to arrest, and or kill you.

I just finished it myself so I know it works!

I just discovered another simple method that you don't have to go out of your way to do.

Near the end of the snowglobe quest in See The Future DLC you will come upon 3 shadow cultists who will summon the shadows. After you kill the shadows you have to kill the cultists but they do not fight you. You can line up the blue or red cultist and repeatedly spam nut shots without having them fight back.

BAM easy achievement.

First, upgrade your Dexterous Styles to level 4. Then find enemies (or civilians) and aim at them. Switch to sub-aim, and fire at their groins. This works on both men and women. (weird, I know).

Or you could use the guide below:

I've helped 100+ unique players with achievements in Fable II and I have no intention in stopping. Players join my game, and I will unlock the achievement within a very short period of time after you've joined. The procedure is swift and requires nothing from you except that you have both of the DLCs installed. This can be either the free versions or the premium ones.

As long as this achievement is up, I'm offering the help. Simply send me a friend request, and a message stating the reason you've added me, and I'll help you the next time I'm free. Please don't send me messages asking me when you can get help, as I always keep in mind my "businesses" and I won't forget about you. And because my friends list is set to only have certain people, I can therefore not keep you on my friends list, unless we've agreed that I will.

Now, go ahead and send me those messages! I'm eager to help out :)

Unlock this, and every other Fable II achievement in the Fable II Walkthrough
