How to unlock the Not Quite Mortal achievement in Turok - Definitive Guide

Easy enough, but to clear up any confusion, you start with a maximum of 100 base health at the beginning of the game and while you can increase your maximum health to 250 with drops, to unlock this achievement you must increase your BASE health to 120.

This is done easily on any level, however its entirely possible to do within the first.
To increase your base health you must pick up the "Mortal Wound" drops from Human Enemies. You will need a total of 4 in order to achieve 120 as they raise your base by 5 each time. These appear on Normal and Easy after achieving a kill with a standard arrow from the bow or your knife.

Just a note, they appear and disappear quicker than normal item drops, so be alert. You can also receive damage and drop below 120 at any time, so long as it is within the same life you should be golden.

I personally ran the first mission after cranking the difficulty down to easy with the knife only and was able to unlock it on the first kill on the second mission.

For some reason I can't seem to unlock this achievement. I'm about to begin level 8 and have reached 250 health points several times throughout the game. Still no achievement. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Where do you see your base health at?? Any buttons to hit and check it?

Just in case others are in the same boat, I read that you must get kills without taking damage, this is not the case. And arrows never seem to work for me, just run around knifing people and you'll get it easily.

If you are. a bit further in the game, try returning to level 3, human enemies seem to respawn a lot on this level.

Just to let people know - I got this one with knife AND pistol. Just be sure you're on Easy. Got it right after third Level 2 key, by killing the grenade guy from afar with pistol!

I just got it going for the 1000gs in one run. Used my knife on Level 6 “The treetop village” and it took 15 enemies and I got it. I can not confirm but the rate seems to be best on this mission.

This achievement is unlocked after collecting 4 Mortal Wound power ups without dying. This achievement has nothing to do with health pickups whatsoever. Mortal Wound power ups can only be acquired by killing humans using your knife or the bow. The power up itself looks like a mask (instead of a cross) and is only dropped by human foes once per 5-10 kills.

You can kill humans with a single slash of your knife. Start the game on easy (this can be switched under Options > Gameplay) and go through the level slashing any human you can find; save your guns for dinosaurs, Purlin and those annoying cave leapers. Keep your eyes peeled for any masks. Don't worry about taking damage as long as you don't die.

I upvoted the above solution because it gave me the general idea, but I wanted to clarify some things. The "mortal wound" base health drop is different from the regular 2pt health drop. When you achieve the "mortal wound" kill, it will pop up "mortal wound" on the screen and refill your health all the way plus 5. So you need to get this 4 times. The part that confused was the randomness of the "mortal wound bonus". This doesn't happen every kill with the knife or bow. It's only every 5 or so kills. So, just start a new game, kill all humans with the knife, and you should get the achievement before the end of the level.

For this you have to get your normal base HP up to 120 (contrary to the description it does not require you to obtain the true maximum from ultra health pickups). You do this by collecting 4 mortal wound powerups (shown in the image below). You can acquire Mortal Wounds by killing a human enemy with either the Knife or regular arrows from the Tek Bow, not every enemy will drop one it is random but this can easily be earned by the end of the first level.

Mortal wounds only appear on Easy or Normal difficulty.
