How to unlock the Quick Draw achievement in Metro 2033 Redux - Definitive Guide
There are 4 total vents, and each will spawn about 3 total enemies, for a total of 12 enemies which usually take 1 bullet to kill. If at any point a vent is opened, just pause and "Load Last Checkpoint", to try again.
After successfully defending the area without allowing any enemies to enter the room through the vents, achievement will unlock.
The solution here is to keep walking around the room to each of the vents grilles. This way the enemies will also attack your friends.
If a vent opens the achievement wont pop up.
This is obtained on the Hunter Chapter.
When you are reunited with Hunter, soon after a swarm of Nosalis will try to break through the 4 vents in the room, simply shoot them before they destroy any of the vent covers. Ignore the ones that drop through the ceiling as the AI will take care of them, just focus on the vents, reloading checkpoint if you fail. For those who prefer a video, please see below from PowerPyx:
Towards the end of the “Hunter” level, you will find yourself in a room with Alex and Hunter. When they get up from their seats, make sure to grab the revolver handgun from the yellow locker in the center of the room. Now locate the four vents in each corner of the room and be prepared for a pesky achievement.
For the next minute or so, swarms of Nosalis mutants will begin their attack by attempting to break through the ventilation shafts. You will need to act quickly during this time in order to kill them before they break through. Don’t worry too much about the enemies that drop in through the ceiling hole in the center of the room; your allies will usually take care of these beasts without much effort. If at any point one of the vents breaks and a mutant gets through, simply restart your checkpoint and try again.

To make it easier for you to get this trophy, you need to:
- Open "Settings" in pause or menu
- Open "Wireless Controller"
- Open "Sensitivity"
- Set "Auto-aim area" to almost maximum
As soon as he knocked it out, he walked from one grate to another and so in a circle exterminated everyone (there were three creatures in each grate).
It is important here not to be distracted by the guards who crawl out of the ceiling - let your comrades kill them, and you only shoot at the bars!
Like in a dance one two three step one two three step.
I started the game on Spartan and passed it the first time. Only one mutant will fall from above, and there will be 2 times fewer opponents behind the bars.
