The max level on your first playthrough for all gear and weapons will be X (Level 10). As you progress through the story, enemies will be higher and higher levels, allowing you to upgrade existing gear sets that you like to be in line with what you get from those enemies (the enemy's level corresponds to the component level they will drop). Just before the final boss, spend some time to upgrade a full gear set to maximum for this achievement (even if you don't plan to wear a full set together). In NG+ enemies will continue to level past X and you'll need to go through the process again up to XX if you miss this achievement on your first run.

To upgrade gear, you will need both scrap (aka money) as well as a certain number of parts cut from enemies. The first time you cut a piece off an enemy, you'll get the schematic for whatever gear they are wearing on the piece you cut off. You can find similar enemies or simply jump in a med bay to respawn the map and kill the same enemy for a new part (though bear in mind not every enemy will have a full set of armor on). Once you have cut the head, body, leg, and arm off an enemy to get a full set of schematics, continue to cut pieces off to get components and scrap for upgrading.

You can turn higher level components into lower level ones (gaining extra in the conversion) if needed, and each upgrade will cost more scrap. Once you have upgraded the head, body, two legs, and two arms from the same gear set, this achievement will unlock.

The maximum level of weapons and equipment in NG is tenth. Level ten enemies appear only in the last third of the last zone, and there are only six of them, so you'll have to farm a little before the final boss. On NG+, leveling starts already from the eleventh level, so if you didn’t do it at the end of NG+, you’ll have to do it at the end of NG+

The main hint is that you can only farm one of the guys: technogenesis, they are complex, they split into two, but they drop the X level part at once, so it’s enough to farm only them

I’ll also add that you need to upgrade one complete set , from armor for arms, legs, body and head, if you wear a set of different sets, then after leveling up to level 10 the trophy will not fall out .

There are about 25 sets in total in the game. (some say 30, but I knocked out 25 and collected it very carefully)
Chop up the enemy from start to finish, hand, foot, body, head.
