How to unlock the Hard to Kill achievement in Mafia II: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

The best way to do this is when driving around after chapter 7 you will find an armoured van, I’ve heard a bus works too however I haven’t tried it. Once in the armoured van drive around running people over it can be a little annoying due to people dodging out the way but once you get the police on you carry on hitting people and you should get a 4 start wanted level on the bottom right of your screen the weapon will be a tommy gun once this happens make sure to keep the police on you and don’t go too far away from them but keep driving around and you won’t die but just after 10 mins the achievement shall pop hope this helps 👍🏼💎🏆

If you would like a video this is the best one on youtube, really good detail

Just got this achievement by hijacking a bus and driving circles around the city while keeping the cops on my tail. Sometimes I had to stop, or even back up, so they'd stay with me.

Much easier to find a bus instead of an armored car,

I did this in the gasoline/petrol tanker. Tootled along with a police car pushing me along at 10-20mph for ten minutes.

I have to say this was the most annoying achievement of the game to get. Ive been searching for an armoured truck for hours on end but finally gave up and tried another method!

Go to Harrys get loaded up with plenty of guns. Block your car across his entrance to his yard then use this as cover. Start shooting up the place until you get a 4 star wanted level and the attention of at least 1 police officer. Hide behind your vehicle cover for 10 minutes and BOOOM, achievement it yours for the taking! Wish i done this hours ago. HOPE THIS HELPS !!

I am currently doing this and it's a charm!

I was lucky though, I have two cops standing there, shooting the wall I have hidden behind, everytime they reload my wanted level begins to drop slightly, however they begin shooting again and my wanted level rises back up! No need for poking my head around.

Occasionally, they do seem to stop shooting so they start running towards me to check I'm still here, so I do a little peek and they start firing again.

If possible, I reccomend luring them into the alley and then taking cover. You'll have an easier time this way! If you don't hear gunfire for a moment longer than usual, just peek again!

I just got the achievement whilst writing this comment.

I actually found a 100% full proof way of getting this achievement assuming your on easy mode (you can choose the difficulty when replaying a mission from the main menu). No armored trucks needed. In chapter 4 Murphy's law play through the mission as normal up until you and Joe split ways and you'll find yourself in a long alley way. Simply try and flag an officer down by making them notice you and lure him down the alley way. At the back end there's a green box you can take cover and for whatever reason they'll never flank you. I had at one point 6 of them shooting at me and simply wait there until the achievement pops. Theoretically maybe you can also get the hairdresser achievement here too if your lucky and get 5 or 6 of them on you if cops count but I haven't tested that as I already got the achievement so maybe let people know if you got it that way. Happy hunting 👍

Another way to do this if you can't seem to find an armored car is during Chapter 4.

After going down the fire escape, head out into the street. Get the attention of the cops and run back into the alley. They should funnel in 1 by 1. Kill all but one, then poke your head out from cover every 5 seconds or so to keep your wanted level. After 10 minutes, the achievement is yours.

If anyone can provide advice, it would be appreciated.

I've been on a 4 star rating for a couple of hours and no achievement. Have tried losing the cops and then initiating another chase. Tried dying and escaping. Tried with a bus, armoured van and alleyway. I've made sure the cops are the ones with the full auto guns that are trying to kill me. I've made sure I'm wanted as well as whatever car I was driving. Im not trying this in the dlc.

If anyone comes across the same issue and finds a fix, feel free to share.

I never tried this way, as it seems like a pain in the butt. I'd suggest waiting till you are driving around looking for Wanted Posters. I was able to find the armored van quite easily pretty early on in my hunt. After that, it's just running over people to get the 4 stars and driving around while the police chase you. I was also able to find a huge billboard in the sand near the dock and just park right on it and sit. The cops just kept blasting away at the van from behind, and never caused any damage to me or the van. Simple.

For the life of me I couldn't find an armored truck so I just went on a shooting rampage outside my house then jumped in one of my neighbors (empty) pools. Killed all cops but one. Then just hunkered down,popping up occassionally to make sure he knew I was still there.
Keep in mind that the 10 minutes starts after you reach the 4 star wanted level. After you get your cheevo kill the remaining cops then just walk to you house to change your clothes.

So I accidentally flipped a convertible car,
While upside down I had 2 police cars and 6 cops all shooting at the car
For some reason being upside down didn’t damage my health or the car
After 10 mins chivo popped

No although very few are likely to be in this situation my advice is if flip roof don’t get out and try your luck with this idea

You can easily get this at the end of chapter 4 which is the one where you rob the jewelery store before getting chased by the cops. Once you come down the fire escape near the end of the chapter, Joe will leave. In the distance (to your left coming out of the alley) you'll see the Irish being nicked. Get your gun out and kill any passer by to get police on your case. Making sure they do not lose sight of you, make your way back up the alley until you can hide behind the wall. If you've done this correctly, you will have a 4star wanted level. The police will stay at the alley entrance firing towards your position. Keep an eye on your mini map icon. If it starts to flash, lean out and aim at the cops to turn it back to 'seen by the cops status'. Repeat this method for the full 10 minutes until the trophy pops. You should not kill the cops before the trophy pops. Once it does, kill them and you'll lose the wanted level.

I would also recommend that if there is multiple cops and a couple have .38's and one has a thompson kill the cop with the thompson because occationally you'll be hit with the burts even if you're still behind the crate in the back of the alley.

VIDEO GUIDE HERE:
For me this was the best and easiest way to do this. Check Video.

To achieve this trophy, you need to endure a continuous four-star wanted level for 10 minutes straight. If the police lose sight of you, abandon the pursuit, or if you meet an unfortunate demise, the trophy opportunity will be lost, necessitating a restart. Numerous methods exist to accomplish this, but the most straightforward approach involves utilizing an armored vehicle.

Shubert Armored Vans are readily available throughout the city, being uncommon but not excessively rare. They are most frequently found in MIDTOWN. These vans boast bulletproof glass and invincible armor. Once you locate one, create enough chaos to trigger a four-star wanted level, attract some law enforcement, and then park the van in a manner that your driver-side door is inaccessible due to being blocked by a wall. This precaution prevents anyone from pulling you out of the van. Your task is to remain stationary for ten minutes, and upon successful completion, the trophy will be yours.

It is recommended to do this in chapter 4 "Murphy's Law".

The trophy is that you raise your search to four stars (robbing businesses, hitting civilians, leading pilots) so that the police chase you and you last ten minutes during the chase.

A very simple trick is to relaunch Chapter 4 "Murphy's Law". After leading the heist of the jewelry store, you will be alone, on your own, in an alley. Exit to find that the police are stalking you and that you are at maximum research level. Attract the officers to you and take refuge in the alley behind a crate. The police will not approach and will just shoot you, touching you sometimes but without putting you in danger. Let them shoot in the wind until you get the trophy. The following video shows you a possible route for this trophy (Credit to San Andreas Gaming): LINK

Note that this achievement is not cumulative. It must be a single 10-minute stretch while at a 4-star wanted level. You can either do this the hard way, and just keep outrunning the cops, or the easy way by finding yourself an armored van and start shooting. Cops will start showing up so get inside the armored van. Get to a 4-star wanted level and just drive around until 10 minutes have passed because the van is completely bulletproof. No bullets will hit you, just make sure you are "wanted" and in sight of a police officer at all times. The easiest way to ensure the cops can't kill you while in an armored van is to drive to the scrapyard and drive your van into the car crusher, with the back of the van right at the entrance to the crusher. This will prevent cops from being able to shoot you. Now simply let your game idle for 10 minutes until this achievement unlocks.
