How to unlock the Pathoanatomist achievement in Metro Redux - Definitive Guide

This is obtained in the level "D6". While you are alone with Miller there will be some orange glowing globes on the wall. When you walk by these, a strange floating, glowing creature will pop out. These are the amoebas. You can shoot the orange glowing globes and it will stop them from popping out, but it will not count towards the achievement. So just walk by the globes and shoot them as they come out. Miller may finish off a couple which also won't count, but there are more than enough in the level to compensate for this.

EDIT: Please explain any negative votes so I can fix the guide. Negatively voting and not saying anything about it doesn't help anyone smile

Yeah, Miller can steal all the kills for this one quite quickly. You can snag 3 right after exiting the control room if you sprint as soon as the door opens. Otherwise, you'll need to run ahead of Miller and trigger the wall spawns to kill the remaining ones you need.

The Pathoanatomist achievement is acquired by killing 5 Giant Amoebae. Giant Amoebae must be killed by the player, and not by Miller or by exploding on their own. Giant Amoebae only appear in the lower levels of the D6 complex, on the way to the Biomass. The simplest way to kill them is by using the revolver as it is usually a one-hit kill.

During the D6 mission, some large glowing incubation sacs on the walls will drop slime and some rather unsavory balls that move toward you and explode, causing damage. These are the amoebas, and you'll likely kill 5 of them without even trying. If for some reason you run away and let your ally do all the fighting though, you could theoretically miss the achievement, so make sure you stick around and kill 5.

I've created a full Enlightened playthrough video showing almost every Moral Point in the game as well as pointing out items of interest, such as this achievement.

You can see the D6 mission starting at the 1:50:57 mark in the video. The portion with the amoebas is at 1:51:41.

During the “D6" level, Artyom and Miller will split off from the group and take the lift further into complex in an attempt to power the reactor. Once you get off the lift, head right and take note of the large, bright orange balls of ooze on the walls. As you progress down this corridor, the balls of ooze will open and medium-sized, spherical organisms (Amoebas) will roll towards you. Try to keep your distance here because if you get too close, they will explode and not count towards the achievement. Likewise, make sure to get in front of Miller or else he will kill all the amoebas. Through experience, shotguns and revolvers will be the best weapons when killing these organisms. Once at least five of these Amoebas have been destroyed, the achievement will be yours.

During the D6 Chapter, after you and Miller split up from the group and go down the lift, you will encounter an area with orange pod/sacks on the walls. As you approach orange orbs of slime ooze will be released from the pods and move toward you, stay in front of Miller and shoot them to cause them to explode, killing them. Kill just 5 of these for the trophy.

In the later parts of D6, you need to kill the flaring blobs. Be careful that Miller doesn't kill them instead, or they explode.
