How to unlock the Giant Killer achievement in Mass Effect Legendary Edition - Definitive Guide

I got this during the Turian Platoon mission on Tuchanka. I was playing a FemShep Sentinal with Liara and EDI as backup. It was the second Harvester I encountered. Simply bombard it with two warps and an incinerate until it was dead.

+1 but if you dont have that avaliable, a heavy duty sniper with armor penetration and incendiary ammo works wonders.

Got this during the Leviathan mission to save Ann Bryson. At the end there's a harvester. It popped without me even touching the harvester. Maybe a glitch in my favor.

Equipping Garrus with the N7 Typhoon and upgrading him with the +50% Assault Rifle Damage and just letting him go to town will easily unlock it. I got it first try on Hardcore with this technique.

Got the same glitch others mentioned. If doing the Leviathan mission then this appears unmissable. Haha.

Curiously enough, I killed all 3 Harvesters in Turchanka: Turian Platoon, and the achievement didn't pop for me at all.

If you're fast enough you can even get it at the very first Harvester encounter during the Turian Platoon mission. Had Garrus with Armor Piercing Squad Ammo and Proximity Mine specced for debuff (Rank 5 - Damage Taken), Javik with Dark Channel and myself as a Sentinel with a Mattock.

Garrus hit it with the Proximity mine for those sweet 20% extra damage, then Javik with Dark Channel as a primer and a nice follow up Warp (specced for Detonate / Expose) from myself to detonate as well as some Mattock shots in between. Repeat as needed. Did it on Insanity so it works on any other difficulty as well.

Be aware that in the original Mass Effect 3 killing the first Harvester sometimes led to a bug where you could not progress the mission any further later on, don't know if they fixed this in the LE.
