How to unlock the The Professional achievement in Styx: Shards of Darkness - Definitive Guide

This achievement is pretty straightforward and can be done in the prologue. There are about 30-35 enemies to take out on the whole map. It does not matter if you do it quietly but might be better because it lowers your chance to be killed if you alerted to many guards.
In case you are not sure if you missed a guard/ enemy just press up on the D-Pad to make Styx whistle and alert all enemies in a certain range. You can then see their"alertmeter" pop up as white/ yellow or red circle, (depending on their state of alertness) allowing you to locate them.
Cheevo pops once you leave the area. (To be 100% sure save before entering the balloon so if the cheevo doesn't pop you can reload from this point and search for the guard you missed.)
If there is anything to improve on this solution pls let me know in the comments.

I just got this achievement with 31 kills. I would think this number doesn't change.

Easiest level for this is the prologue. Use your vision to identify enemies and make noise to see if any more are in the vicinity.

By the end you should have 31 kills.

You could do this in any zone you please but obviously the Prologue is the first and easiest place to do this. Rid an entire zone (not an entire mission) of all enemies and this trophy will unlock during the zone transition or mission completion screen.

The Prologue mission only has one zone and within are 31 enemies.

  • 2: An unmissable sequence occurs where two guards cut down a goblin in front of you.
  • 2: Right after this you need to head to the back of a building where you will see two guards by a fire.
  • 2: Another unmissable sequence between two guards occurs near the mission documents.
  • 2: Upstairs from the documents is a bunkhouse with two guards.
  • 1: Take the stairs upwards once more to find a lone patrolling guard in a corridor.
  • 3: Another unmissable sequence between two guards talking about C.A.R.N.A.G.E. A lone worker is below their location.
  • 2: Head outside to find two guards patrolling on an open platform.
  • 1: On the tavern platform there is a lone guard leaning against some crates next to an explosive barrel.
  • 4: The tavern has two guards in front and two in back.
  • 3: The main floor of the tavern has two guards and 1 worker.
  • 1: The lower level of the tavern has one guard near the Guards' pay.
  • 1: The second tavern level has one noble near the Guards' pay.
  • 4: The upper attic area of the tavern has 3 guards and 1 worker near the final Guards' pay.
  • 3: The tavern roof has 3 guards.

This achievement is best done in the Prologue since there are only about thirty enemies in total to kill. The manner in which you kill the enemies in the mission does not matter, but it's recommended to take them out quietly so that you don't get spotted and killed numerous times. Remember, you can whistle () in order to lure enemies towards your position.

It shouldn't be too hard to kill all the enemies in this mission since there aren't many areas that you wouldn't already be traveling through for the objectives at hand. As a failsafe, though, you can create a manual save before exiting the mission so that if the achievement does not unlock at the post-mission stat screen, you can reload your save and backtrack to find any enemies you may have overlooked.

The easiest way is to do it right in the Prologue, just one zone with 31 enemies. The trophy drops after completing the mission.
