How to unlock the First Melee Special Move Kill achievement in The Ascent - Definitive Guide

I got this using the hammer melee weapon, dropped by an enemy. Line up a poor victim and use LT to use a special attack. The achievement will unlock upon a successful kill

Just as an FYI to everyone else (even if this achievement is free once you have the weapon that actually unlocks this), the attack is a ranged shockwave in the direction you’re facing that goes through walls.

I tried this with the katana but the spinning attack didnt unlock the achievement. I killed about 10 people before I swapped to the hammer. The first kill with the hammer unlocked the achievement.

Same here. Baseball bat and guillotine didn't do the job. After I found the "Stonebreaker" hammer in the first combat area (in a lootbox behind a breakable wall - u can't miss it) it popped.

It's important that u hit and kill the enemy during the special melee attack in a close combat. If he's to far away and dies through the shockwave it won't count.

Melee weapon special moves are performed with lt.png. Again, get the Rock Crusher so you can actually unlock the achievement, then spam lt.png until someone is dead.

A special attack performed by any melee weapon when pressing a button . Kill any enemy with this attack and get a trophy.

Currently, this trophy can only be obtained using the Rock Crusher weapon; kills with a katana and a baseball bat do not count.
