How to unlock the Mind Blown achievement in The Bureau: XCOM Declassified - Definitive Guide

DaSilva starts the dlc with this ability, you can place the charge within a certain range of DaSilva and detonate whenever you want. Best used when encounters first begin around groups of enemies or drop pods. On rookie difficulty it will insta-kill most infantry.
I obtained it before second of three story achievements.

Even on Commander it insta-kills most enemies. I also nabbed it before the second story-progression achievement. I went for Clever Girl during the DLC and it popped shortly after this one - I believe that some of the kills from the demo charges counted towards it.

Demo Charges are a main character ability. When you start the Hangar 6 DLC you immediately get a Rank Up and get to pick and use this very handy toy.

Always try to run up to a group of enemies, preferably when they hop out of Drop Pods, and place a Demo Charge right at their feet. Without leaving Battle Focus immediately select Detonate Charge and watch them fly.

If you rigorously stick to using them right from the start the Trophy should unlock around Mission 5.

Missable!

The Demo Charge is available at the start of this DLC, it deals a good amount of damage and can one shot most enemies on Rookie difficulty. This ability is best used immediately after enemies spawn from a drop pod while they are clustered together. If you focus on using the Demo Charge every time it is available, then you should have no problem unlocking this trophy by the end of the DLC. See below for a tip that will help you get this trophy:

Tip for Mind Blown

On Rookie you can destroy Drop Pods, Outsiders, Sectoids with a single Demo Charge. The best thing is that it ignores the Shield Bubble DropPods make when they land. In combination with the instant explosion after setting it. As soon as a Drop Pod lands, rush towards it, 3-4 aliens come out, go into Battle Focus, plant the demo centering at the Pod so the spawning aliens are in the radius and instantly blow it. Doing it that way you will easily get 10+ kills per Trial. I got the trophy during Trial 4 with this Tactic.
