How to unlock the Death Wish achievement in Vanquish - Definitive Guide

This achievement can be unlocked on any difficulty and on any level.

In order to unlock this achievement you need to take enough damage from enemy units to automatically trigger your suits AR mode. Once it has activated, you need to destroy three (3) enemy units.

Odds are you will probably unlock this through normal game progression, however here are some basic tips to help you out if you want to pop this achievement right away.

1.) Play on a low difficulty setting: This will allow you to take enough damage to "damage trigger" your AR mode, but still have a safe amount of health left to not die if you continue to take enemy fire.

2.) Try to make sure there are 3 enemies bunched together: The enemies in this game like to move around quite a bit. When you see a cluster of enemies (I would recommend the cannon fodder, weak red robot foot soldiers) let them shoot you until AR mode triggers, then you can quickly dispatch all 3 without needing to search for your targets.

3.) Choose your weapon: The easiest way to get this would be to use the rocket launcher. However it is doable with any weapon you want to use. If you struggle to get three kills before AR mode ends, try switching to a different gun, or try upgrading the gun you want to use.

I have included a video below to show how I got the achievement.

You can trigger AR mode by holding LB and RT. When you do so time slows down.

For this achievement you need to let AR trigger itself by taking a good amount of damage. Run into a group of robots and let them shoot you. Once it triggers AR mode simply shoot and kill 3 robots. I did this on easy and with a rocket launcher, but you should have enough time to kill 3 robots with an assault rifle too.

When you took a critical amount of damage, the AR Mode will be engaged automatically. Similar to the "Adrenaline Rush" achievement, you have to kill 3 enemy robots before the timer runs out of time.

The red robots seem to be easy kills, especially on casual difficulty and/or with a fully upgraded Assault Rifle/Heavy Machine Gun. Make sure the robots stand close to each other, this will make it so much easier. Try to go for headshots as well, it helps a lot! Once the AR Mode timer runs out of time, your ARS temperature gauge will indicate it's overheated, so go into cover for a moment of cooldown. If all this fails, try again on casual auto.

can be obtained in chapters 1-5, when Burns climbs the stairs, and you are left with the guys below and a crowd of enemies is crawling towards you from behind. Before they run away, run to meet them in the open area and wait until the automatic AR turns on due to damage. you need to have time to kill 3 before your health is restored

I got in chapter 2-5. In front of you there will be a road in a semicircle and platforms with robots will fly in from the air, wait until a platform with three robots on board arrives and let them shoot at you until the auto slowdown turns on, then take out the rocket launcher and shoot at this platform
