How to unlock the Pacifist achievement in Neon Chrome - Definitive Guide

Leg it! (also don't shoot anything or hit anything!)

Shoot = cn_RT (don't do that!)
Special weapon = cn_LT (definitely don't do this!)
Melee = press the cn_RS (don't do this either!)

The earlier levels are easier and shorter but it's still too easy to die at the beginning if you've not leveled up yet. Collect yourself some lovely money (Hacker earns the most and Luck will help you get more from the loot boxes) and spend it on levelling up your health. You then need to be able to run from the entrance (Blue elevator box) to the exit (Green elevator box). I don't think running in to a special level (Purple elevator box) would work as it doesn't count as a finished level until you complete the extra level too.

Some levels require you to destroy a certain amount of targets before the exit will open. Obviously, these levels wouldn't work for this achievement. You'll know if it's one of those levels as there will be orange text at the top of the screen that says something like '0/4 Targets Destroyed'.

Good luck!

Thanks for the ideas. I just unlocked this without doing any of those things, on level 1. You are correct, that the levels are different each time. I did have to kill a keymaster to grab a red key to get through to the exit. How did I do that? I looted a box that had a vampire drain ability. I was able to use that and kill the keymaster, grabbed the key, unlocked the red door and ran to the exit. The achievement unlocked about 10 seconds later. I just made sure NOT to fire any weapons or melee. Good luck!

The levels are different each time so that's why I said one of the earlier levels (once you've powered up a bit). I can't tell you any more than that, sorry.

There's a few options for this trophy but it's easier to be attempted on the first floors:

Option 1- Upgrade health and buy speed/armour enhancements and run for the elevator. You can learn the level lay out, quit and re-enter to make this a breeze.

Option 2- There are a few levels that have no enemies in them, some with just mines. These levels will come up and this trophy will come naturally over play. Just try not to use any buttons other than directional.

Option 3- There are specialised levels in the game (the level will be yellow instead of purple in the floor screen, not to be confused with special levels) which are still counted as normal levels trophy wise. There is one on floor two that has one enemy in the middle of the room and a simple route to the end. Just avoid him easily and the level is done. (See runner and sneaky)

As the description says, you need to complete any NORMAL level (not a special level on a purple elevator) without using lt.pngrt.png, or analog-right.png to do any sort of attack, even if you don't hit an enemy with them.

Don't even bother with this until you've done a few runs and beefed up your stats in the hub. This achievement is far easier with the Techie class, since you have the shield and therefore are far less likely to die. Since you'll also want to minimize interaction with enemies in general for this, to avoid getting shot, this achievement actually pairs nicely with Runner (60G). However, like a bunch of these miscellaneous achievements, if you play a level and notice that it's pretty conducive to this achievement (such as being short, minimal enemies on the main path, or you have leftover keycards from previous levels that allow you to get to the green exit quicker), you can use the Save and Exit exploit in the roadmap to restart the level, and now that you know where the exit is and how to get there quickly, you can beeline right to it, ignoring all enemies and just getting right in the elevator and mashing button-a.png to escape. 

Below is a clip of me doing this and Runner (60G) together. Take note that I had an leftover red keycard. This might sound situational, but I found it to happen pretty often while doing special levels (for example, you grab a red keycard on a level with a purple elevator and don't need to use the red keycard to to get to the purple elevator, so it stays with you). This makes this and Runner (60G) easier, and in some levels it'll be required for this achievement, just because some levels have red doors in your way and the only way to open them is to kill the Keymaster enemy who will drop the red keycard. Having one in your possession bypasses the need to defeat the Keymaster. Here is the clip:

Trophies Runner, Sneaky, Pacifist are taken at the same level. It's much simpler than it seems. I recommend saving these trophies for the end.

What you need to get the trophy:

1) There must be 2 speed improvements open (one gives +20, the other +10, and the character himself gives another +10)
2) You need a level where it is possible to go to an additional level (with a purple elevator), in such rooms, as a rule, the green elevator is very close to where you started. You need to go exactly to the green one to finish the level!
3) Take a character class with a bonus to speed and he also has invisibility.
4) We set the reboot level to 1.0 (after we complete the game, it will rise by +1), you can change it in the console at the starting location.
5) We start the level and simply clear it and explore it. We remember the road and all the nuances. Then go to the menu and select exit. When the game starts, we will return to the beginning of the level with the timer reset.
6) When you run through the level, don’t shoot at anyone and don’t get noticed.

PS I completed it in 11 seconds.

It will be easier to do on version 1.0

I did it with minimal leveling, not yet reaching the keeper.

I took the “Corporation Soldier” - he has an increase in HP, plus a shield - reduces frontal damage by 15%.
(With proper skill, you can also become an Assassin with the perk for speed and invisibility)

But since I did it without perks and leveling, HP is a priority. Next, as the speaker wrote above, we select a level, study it and run through it.
