I made a post about this months ago but kind of put this game in the back log.
So I will basically give up my spot here since my information was not accurate at the time. Good luck to anyone going for 100%
Seeing as I haven't even unlocked the achievement, here's advice from someone who has..
EDIT: (ALL CREDIT GOES TO JJ)
The description is extremely misleading, so I tried various things (throwing, kicking, only hitting the enemy, hitting and killing, etc.) to see when exactly does the achievement meter increment, and when it does not.

Basically:
- You need to kill enemies with environmental items, not just hit them;
- It's not 150, but 250 enemies that you need to kill that way (the in-game achievements menu does show the correct number, the Xbox achievement does not);
- The game doesn't care whether you throw or kick the item, so you don't need to disable the kicking skill (or even shouldn't, since kicking is way faster).
- Your progress will register once you exit the level, either by finishing it, restarting it, or leaving to the hideout.

If you want to farm this achievement, the very first group of enemies in the game (at the beginning of Factory level) is perfect for that. They're extremely weak (especially at the lowest difficulty, obviously), and there's plenty of throwable trash lying around. Kill the first group with throwable objects, then restart the level. This will take less than a minute and should yield 3% of achievement progress. Rinse and repeat until you reach 100%.

Your character will still throw objects if they're on a table or if youre trying to get the object over a table. You can also unnasign skills at the skill tree

Also if you hold the right bumper it will pick up the item instead of kick.

I feel like this one must have the wrong description and is actually looking for 150 kills with thrown environmental items. Just played the Tavern level as a test and threw every single chair at an enemy and only got 1 or 2 percent of an increase on the tracker.

Possibly a different enemy for every item thrown I'm not sure. I have certainly thrown hundreds of miscellaneous objects AND hit enemies. I'm still at 66 percent

By Taylor00027 on 29 Aug 2022 19:15

Yeah, I felt like I threw about 500 items before this popped for me.

The description in the in-game achievement menu is "Throw 250 environmental items at enemies."

I think they have to actually hit and hurt enemy in order for them to count. Enemies can block an incoming throwable object (not weapon).

JJ you should just make that the solution.

Killing pretty much everyone on the first level with environmental object will net you 10% on the achievement progress. It's quicker to weaken enemies with a couple of punches before throwing stuff at them

Thanks yeah I figured out you could unequip the other day, and I just turned mine off because sometimes when I hold RB it still kicks.

By Taylor00027 on 27 Aug 2022 21:14

If you don't want to unequip the skill, you can just roll over the item and press and hold RB as you're rolling to pick it up so you can throw it. That way you can still kick items if need be.
