How to unlock the Abhor the Mutant achievement in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide - Definitive Guide

Easier to do on the lowest difficulty after you've gained a few levels and got some better weapons. Took me about 6 attempts before I figured the timing out. You have to be the one that gets the killing blow and you have to do it as the Mutant is charging, I found it easier if it's charging directly at you.

As the Mutant is charging, hit F on PC, RB on controller to dash forward and start swinging your weapon. If you time it right and kill the Mutant, achievement should pop.

When trying to get this it's important to note that the killing blow must land while you are still charging not afterwards. Using a slow weapon like the heavy sword, you'll want to release your heavy attack before ulting when at a moderately close range to get it.

There's no F button on an Xbox controller.

@OperativeEmeral When I posted the guide the game was only available on PC Game Pass. Happy to update with the controller button for the charge attack if you let me know what it is.

Did you just copy and paste your solution from the PC version of the game?

This should be fixed, I did this like 10 times already and it didnt pop. I also tried the eviscerator method, did it several times, no achievement. ASS

FYI upgrading to Fury of the Faithful doesn't negate the achievement

Make this super easy, get the upgraded version of the talent. Use a heavy power weapon, charge it up and start heavy swinging. You can use the ability to launch yourself as the heavy starts it's swing. Giving you a one shot kill for most heavy power weapons like the hammers.

Cheese Method: If you have a Psyker with the Smite ability (shock), they can freeze the mutant mid dash, it will slowly do damage to him while you line it up, dash in to get your kill. No timing really to figure out.

The Zealot can also freeze the mutant mid dash via talisman.

It appears that you can also sit & wait until the mutant grabs someone with his dash & is hitting them into the ground, then attack them. Makes it easier as they're stationary, I just managed it this way.

This achievement must be bugged because I have done it several times, but it just won't unlock for me.
