How to unlock the Humpty Dumpty achievement in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Definitive Guide
Kill the Bandits that are carrying two-handed weapon, for some reason that won't fly as good as the ones holding only one-handed weapons go to the Place in the Screenshot below and use to block and get them near the edge, now use the the Aard Sig to knocking them off somewhere high, helpful is Tanny Oil to regenerate Adrenalin faster and more range for the Ard sign.
Also a Video is never wrong.
Leaving the area by fast traveling and then going back will cause the enemies to respawn. You don't have to fast travel out of the map, just make sure all enemies are dead before you leave.
The Devil's Pit is a bandit camp and a quarry, so there are a lot of walk ways up high. There is at least one enemy with a two handed weapon, so take him out first since you can't parry them. After that, find a ledge up high and use Aard to push off the remaining enemies. If you're patient, you can push 2 or more enemies off the edge at a time. Then reload your save when there are no enemies left and do it again.
If like me, you already cleared Devils Pit and did the Netflix DLC, you won’t be able to complete this at that location.
I found this great video on YouTube about a cliff edge where two dudes seem to constantly respawn. I did have to mediate when I got there for them to first appear but after that all I did was walk away and they would come back.

If you watch the video is shows you how to get there. The video also suggests you could get a few other achievos here such as Master Marksmen but I haven’t tried that.
Happy Aard-ing

To get Humpty Dumpty try to get just one or two guys to follow you up to the top of the platform inside the pit, then use your block to maneuver one near the edge. Once he's there, blast him with Aard to knock over the ledge and (hopefully) kill him. Repeat with a few more guys. Once you've run out of convenient bandits, use the fast travel sign outside the pit to go somewhere else and immediately return to respawn all of the bandits.
A great place to earn this is in the Bandit Camp at the Devil's Pit fast travel point in Velen. There's a huge Bandit Camp here. Lure some bandits towards a ledge, preferably the one shown in the video below where you enter the camp. Block or counter their attacks to push them to the edge, then immediately use the Aard sign to knock them down the hill. Kill the enemies with two-handed weapons / axes with your sword, rather than the Aard sign. Their attacks cannot be countered and they don't usually fall off the ledge, so they are only in your way. Once all enemies are dead you fast travel to the Royal Palace of Vizima map and return to the Devil's Pit. All bandits should have respawned and you can try again. You should be able to get 4-6 kills per run.
You don't have to buy any skill upgrades to do this, but they can help a little bit:
One of the best locations to work on this achievement is in the Bandit Camp at the Devil's Pit fast travel point in Velen. As soon as you enter the camp, there are some stairs that act as a great ledge to push enemies off to their death. To do this, lure some bandits near the stairs, preferably the one shown in the video below, block their attacks as you bait them to the ledge, then cast Aard to knock them off backwards.
If you see enemies with two-handed weapons or axes, kill them with your sword since they're too strong to counter and bait. After you clear out the camp, fast travel out of the region (such as to the Royal Palace of Vizima), and return to the Devil's Pit. All the bandits will have respawned and you can continue working on this. Take note that you don't need any Aard upgrades for this achievement and you should be able to get 3-4 Aard kills per run.
The Devil's Pit is a quarry with robbers; there are two types of them; one-handed weapons and two-handed axes
Kill those with two-handed axes right away, bring the rest to the cliff, blocking blows, and throw them away with aard. If you don’t succeed with the crowd, you can kill everyone, leave one or two and throw them away, then go somewhere and rewind the day, the bandits will appear again. In the pit itself, use only blocks when rolling, even pirouettes, there is a high chance of falling yourself.
