How to unlock the First Strike achievement in Tales of Vesperia - Definitive Guide
After the tutorial on Fatal Strikes I used Yuri's Wolf Strike on a Howler( Green Birds). They are located in the same area, Caer Bocram.
Using the Wolf Strike repeatedly then pressing the Right Trigger when you see the red circle around the enemy to finish the enemy with a Fatal Strike.

After learning how to do Fatal Strikes in the ruined city, do one in battle against an enemy. For more info, read the Fatal Strikes guides in the game itself on how to do them, what it most effective, etc.

I have done a FS multiple times against enemies and have yet to get this achievement. Is it glitched possibly?

I don't recall any issues.

As you attack enemies, their three bars will lower depending on the attacks they are hit with. They have red, blue and green bars (hit RB if they have been scanned with a Magic Lens) and once the bar is empty, another hit with that same type of attack will make them vulnerable to a fatal strike. This ability won't become available until you meet the Hunting Blades. The arte Shining Fang with Yuri is a good way to get a blue symbol to show up quickly. Gold Cat with Rita is great for red symbols.
