It can totally be missed if you don't actually kill them! Once they get down to two bars of armor left they'll try to fly off and if you don't have a clear line of sight they're gone.

Headshots with a Widow/Black Widow mess them up real good though ;)

its not missable! You have to kill the harvester on earth, while you defend the Rockets.

Fair enough. I was concentrating on Banshees and Marauders so I didn't notice it die :)

If you have the Leviathan DLC you can get this achievement before the war summit (Priority: Sur'Kesh).

easy enough to kill the last one before u get to victus because there is a weapon there cant remember the name of it but it insta kills all the enemies around if u hold off using it as u can kill a brute easy enough (i managed it easy as anything on insanity difficulty) then u can use the weapon after clearing out the rest as long as u dont shoot the harvester u should be fine for it not flying away :)

I did the leviathan dlc already.. i killed a harvester.. and I'm sure my bullet killed it.. cause my squad actually just ran towards the other enemies, and died.

still no achievement.

i just got the achievement.. but theres something weird.. the extra menu ( main menu ) and accomplishments, shows that i have NOT earned it, but i have! i killed 4. That menu seems to be glitchy.. it doesn't count everything, but i still get the achievements though.

Harvesters are the giant flying horse type enemies. You'll only encounter about a half dozen or so throughout the campaign. Use ammo and powers that are effective against armor for best results. You'll first start seeing them on Tuchanka. Specifically, you will be after one on that planet trying to save a team of Turians. Don't worry if you don't kill them right away, as it can fly off. The end of the mission mentioned specifically makes you kill it at the end. When fighting it, just make sure there is something in the way and you can shoot one of it's body parts that are exposed.

You’ll see harvesters on Earth and again on Menae, but you will not be able to attack them. The first mission that you can attack one on is when you rescue the turian squad on Tuchanka. They are basically flying brutes in the sense that they have no shield or health bars, but only an armor bar. In addition to that, the harvester will launch projectiles that when they crash, will release husks, cannibals, marauders, etc. They also have an attack that will drop your shields instantly. Staying in cover negates that though. Armor piercing weapon mods, Incinerate, and Incinerate Ammo are the best options to bring their armor down.

The trophy drops before the fight with the Collector. But you still have to kill him. Used Prothean emitter (upgraded to level 5) + Warp + Suzi's Ignition.

Dropped out on a mission to rescue Anne Bryson (DLS Leviothan), and before I defeated him.
