How to unlock the Master of Drones achievement in The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena - Definitive Guide

This achievement is going to be easiest on the Easy difficult, but is not necessary as I personally got it on Normal.

After jumping down the air duct and opening all prison cells, you'll find yourself locked in a drone control room. Jump in one of the control units. An important thing to remember here is that at minimum you must use 2 drones for this challenge, so you must more or less be perfect.

While controlling the drone, you'll need to walk forward until you see a fan behind a grating. Shoot the lock at the top of the flashing piece and it will fall open. Walk the drone forward into the fan. You'll see a quick cutscene and the drone will be destroyed, first drone dead. Hit Y again to access a second drone. Go back to the same place and walk through the now stopped fan.

Around the corner to the left, several mercs will be waiting in ambush. To get the achievement, all of these mercs have to be killed without you accessing another drone. Try aiming for the head as much as possible As soon as the last merc drops, your achievement should unlock.

It should be worth mentioning that as soon as the last merc is dead, several more drones will activate and will likely destroy the drone you are using. It shouldn't matter though as you should already have the achievement.

I missed this on my first plauthrough and when I went back for it as soon as I jumped on the first control unit it popped. I did kill 4 or 5 enemies just before I jumped on the control unit. Perhaps they were the guys you were talking about in your guide. Thumbs up from me.

I had given up on this on my hard playthrough but decided after the second drone was killed to just exit the machine and take my chances. I waited in the dark as they cut open the door and after I killed the remaining mercs the achievement popped.

Just make sure you don't engage the drones around the corner (I sneaked by them on the left in the dark after the achievement) as it will make it much more difficult.

This one is much easier if you do it on easy difficulty after you complete the game. During Checkpoint 47 (Main Decks) you have to control some drones in order to get out of the Main Decks. You have 4 drones at your disposal but to get this trophy you can only use 2.

Here is a video by judasen showing how it's done. The first drone is used to stop the fan. The second drone is used to destroy all the other drones in the next corridor.

Note: you can get on and off of the control station as much as you want while controlling a drone, as long as you only control 2 actual drones during the entire section.
