How to unlock the Master of Deception achievement in STAR WARS Battlefront II - Definitive Guide
A good spot for your first Scout Trooper Takedown in the campaign is Mission 4 (The Storm). Halfway through the mission you come to an open space where enemies march from right to left on a street. Across the street is the scout trooper you can take down silently. Take your time and wait until the troops walk by and sneak up to the scout trooper and perform a takedown.
- Play through until you reach the Stormtroopers walking up the road
- Wait for them to pass
- Sneak across the road and melee the scout trooper
You can also get the Balance Point achievement right after this.
See below YouTube video showing how I did it.

This can be done during the third enemy encounter of mission 5. There will be one enemy sniper in the area. These scouts carry a sniper rifle and have darker armor than other enemies. You must kill the sniper with a stealth melee attack from behind. You can reload the checkpoint if you fail and alert the enemies.

This trophy can be obtained either during your story playthrough or through chapter select after you’ve completed the story.
A Scout Trooper is the sniper equivalent of the Storm Trooper. There aren’t very many of them throughout the campaign and even less that aren’t aware of your presence. The best and easiest place to do this is Mission 5 – The Storm. About halfway into the mission you will get an objective saying "Reach Kestro Defence Center”. From your spawn, stay hidden and let the group of Storm Troopers that are marching from right to left pass by. As soon as they have passed, crouchwalk straight ahead and cross the street towards a Scout Trooper that is standing with his back to you. Take him down with while still undiscovered to obtain this trophy. Note that if you do get discovered and perform a regular melee takedown it will not trigger this trophy and you will have to restart the checkpoint.
