How to unlock the Shadow achievement in Metro: Last Light Redux - Definitive Guide
After you take the elevator, you'll come to an area with 6 guards. Stealth kill as many as you want and reload if needed. The safest method would be using throwing knives on the first guard over and over. You might be able to do this earlier in the level, but I don't know where the checkpoints are before the elevator.
You must first escape from the rope and take out Pavel. Next you will want to walk forward and you will find a box with some gadget inside that you will want to pick up. From there turn around and head towards the cell in the back. On the wall next to the cell is another box. Press to activate the gadget you just picked up and it will turn on some power. Head forward out of that room towards the locked gate. On the left hand side is another box you will need to activate power on. This will open the gate.
Now just head forward until you get to the door. Open the door and on the table directly in front of you is a knife. Press to pick it up. You have probably already heard the guard whistling at this point and he is walking slowly towards you. Just come out from the corner with the knife and click to perform a stealth melee. Now you can just press start and reload the checkpoint. You will start right before you grab the knife.
Here is a video showing everything from the main menu and including a checkpoint reload to show it all works.
This can pretty much be completed on any level and at any time during your playthrough. Just make sure you are using close combat kills or silenced weapons, as knocking enemies out will not count towards this achievement. It is also worth noting that throwing knives can help with this achievement since it allows for a ranged stealth kill. Once you have stealthily killed a total of fifteen enemies during your playthrough, the achievement will unlock.

Kill 15 enemies without raising an alarm. This will be an easy trophy to get but will impact your Redemption ending so save it for your next playthrough.
I first killed 14 soldiers who were walking alone, the main thing was that they did not stumble upon a corpse. I didn’t touch the first pair by the fire because they are looking at each other, but a little further there is a second pair by the lamp, one is sitting, the other is standing on them, so I made numbers 15 and 16 and therefore returned to the first pair.
There will be three people at the fire, one is almost invisible because he is standing with the bunnies, listen to their jokes to the end and he will go to inspect the territory.
Turn off the lights wherever possible.
From this I can conclude that it is not necessary to kill in a row (I also killed those who shot at me at that moment) and secretly (in terms of without alarm and shootouts). Perhaps the main condition for counting frags is the fact that the player is hiding, i.e. sits in the shadows at the time of the murder.
