How to unlock the Culling Frenzy achievement in The Banner Saga 2 - Definitive Guide

Small story spoilers:

At the beginning of Chapter 13, you'll go into battle with just Bolverk and Folka against a group of about 7-8 enemies. You look incredibly outnumbered but this scenario is actually ideal for this achievement. Before pressing "Ready", place Bolverk as close as you can to the nearest foe. With your first turn as Bolverk, approach that enemy and use his special ability Cull The Weak on him. It should kill him, and if so, grant you another turn. Repeat this process, moving enemy to enemy until you've dispatched five of them. The achievement will pop right away, even if your turn is still ongoing.

Hint: I was playing on easy at the time, so if you're still struggling to kill them all with one hit like this achievement would require, try playing on that difficulty.

I was able to do it on normal with the Gem of Veznan on Bolverk. I actually killed everyone on the first turn, though you need to pay attention to how much damage you do. The shield guys will require extra willpower since cull has a strength penalty at the base level. The archers all went down with the level 1 cull though, if I remember right. Could probably even do it on hard against the archers but you'd need Bolverks willpower pretty high. to use level 3 cull again and again.

This is the easiest way to do it. Was able to do it fine on normal as well.

Wow! Great Solution! I went through the whole fight on the first turn with Bolverk using this method.

Cull the Weak is a skill that Bolverk possesses. An easy spot to get this is right at the beginning of Chapter 13. During this fight you will only have Bolverk and Folka. Place Bolverk directly next to an enemy, and use the skill to kill him. Upon a kill with this skill, you will receive another attack and maintain your turn. Continue around the board killing each enemy in turn to unlock the achievement. You can literally kill every single enemy in one turn on Easy and at least five on Normal.

In Chapter 11 there is an event when several people from the caravan are lost and it is suggested that they abandon them or go look for them. If you choose the answer option: “Shout loudly - We are here!” there will be a fight. A dozen crawlers attack, they have little health and defense. To be on the safe side, I equipped Bolverk with an artifact that covers the range of movement. On the first turn, the rest of the group knocks down the crawlers' shield. The crawlers, in turn, hide in the shadows. When they emerge from the shadows, Bolverk walks over them like a roller.
