How to unlock the It's All In The Wrist achievement in Red Faction: Armageddon - Definitive Guide

_________________________________________________________________________________________

* UPDATE: June 03, 2012 *

- About a week ago my computer crashed and I lost completely everything. I lost all of my Video Editing programs (I have them now), and all of my Edited, and Un-Edited versions of all of my Video Guides. So what this means is that, I cannot re-upload ANY of my Red Faction: Armageddon Achievement/Trophy Guide videos. That is why the links to all of my Video Guides for this game, on this website, are broken. I am very sorry for the Inconvenience =(

*All of my new Video Guides will be uploaded to my new Channel on Youtube: http://www.Youtube.com/WarzoneGuides

_________________________________________________________________________________________

* You do not need to play the Campaign to get this Achievement *

- This is really easy to do. First, go into the INFESTATION game mode. Then go to Xbox LIVE or OFFLINE (If you don't have Xbox Live), and host a Private Match. Then go to the Upgrades option, and buy the "IMPACT BOOST" upgrade. The reason you need the boost, is because the boost will make the enemies go farther when using IMPACT. You need 1000 Salvage (Money) to buy this. You can easily get Salvage from playing 1 or 2 waves in Infestation. Once you've bought Impact Boost, load up the map "Dust To Dust". Make sure when your picking your weapons, to press RB to select the Impact Ability. From there, you want to look for the building on the highest point of the map. It should have a long bridge next to it. Then lure an enemy or two up there, preferably Creepers (Small Crawling Alien). Wait until he is just about on the bridge, and use Impact.

I'm glad it helped =)

Have you checked out some of my new Mass Effect 3 videos? If you don't have the game, i would recommend it. It's quite fun.

Could not get the bugs to follow me to the top, but impacting them off the bridge next to it worked.

Very good solution.

Including a text description as well as a video link is excellent; not many people do that. It allows ANYONE to use this solution, whether they prefer video or text.

Also, the fact that your solution does not require a person to replay the entire campaign to find one specific spot is a very big plus!

Yea, sorry. I am re-editing all of my videos to fix spelling errors and other problems that may be in my Guides, and then I am uploading them all to my new channel called "WarzoneGuides". I will not be using my account on Youtube, "WarzoneAchievements" anymore.

New Channel: http://www.Youtube.com/WarzoneGuides

I'm currently working on my Halo: CE Anniversary videos. After that, I'll quickly do my Saint's Row 2 videos, then Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and then finally Red Faction: Armageddon.

Because the least amount of viewers and subscribers i had liked Armageddon, that will be the last section of videos to upload. And Halo: CE and Deus Ex are coming first because they were my most popular Game Guides.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I found this method the easiest:

once you have completed the part where you gather the 3 power cells there will be a cutscene where your given the objective of repairing the water pumps. After the cutscene is over walk foreword until you come to a large round hole in the wall. This is the entrance to the first water pumps area. There will be creepers that constantly spawn from pods here so if you fail you can keep trying. Walk close to the entrance and use impact, this should send the creeper flying down over the railing and cause it to fall 3 floors down. The achievement should pop up right away.

Can be done with really any ledge if somebody misses that location. I shot a creeper into a canyon like area later on.

In the level after the flyer cutscene when Kara is getting 17 generators back online (about 75% of the way through), you will come to a spot where SAM says the creepers are using a bridge to get into the caves and to go destroy it. Here you have an unlimited amount of creepers to practice this on. I destroyed the bridge about half way so there was some falling space and then let it rip. Tap RB to perform an Impact. I had the 1st upgrade found on the 2nd ring and I got it.

On the level right after the one where you defeat the alien queen, you have to descend a catwalk that rings a deep pit. While you're doing this, those reddish aliens that jump around will be attacking you. Hit RB when one of them is close to you to blast them into the pit; they'll die when they hit the bottom and you'll get the achievement.

For best results try knocking them off near the top of the pit; they'll have to fall farther.

Impact is your default nano power (). A good location to get this achievement is on level 11 after the cutscene where one of your chasers gets killed and you have to kill some enemies. There is a cliff here. Position yourself so that the enemy will go flying off of the cliff and this will add a lot of distance. It may take a couple of seconds to unlock because of the long fall, but within a few tries it should unlock. You could do this with any cliff, high up place, or any open place as long as the enemy doesn't hit an object.

Can be earned in Infestation mode.

To use Impact, tap R2.png when your nano charge is full and your character will release a burst of energy, capable of sending enemies flying and smashing through walls. Find an enemy near a cliff or other high location and use Impact to send them flying.

As you progress through the game, you will come across a lot of places with high cliffs and abysses, where you can easily throw back any enemy or even several enemies with an impulse to increase your chances.
