How to unlock the First Team Soldier achievement in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - Definitive Guide
You do not have to pass each chapter in this difficulty.
Greetings and luck.
The "I am death incarnate!" difficulty is the game's second hardest difficulty. Each of the three Volumes in this DLC can generally be tackled loud or stealthily, but you'll soon notice that stealth isn't always a viable option. As such, don't be afraid to bunker down in a room, lean out of a doorway, and kill the enemies as they come funneling towards your position; in fact, this approach to combat is smarter than trying to complete the DLC stealthily, given its mission design.
As always, keep these key tips in mind during your playthrough:
- Canned goods can be picked up after thrown
- Canned goods only knock out enemies when thrown at their head
- You will regenerate armor in intervals on 25 when you pick up a piece of armor
- If you are at 20 armor, and pick up a piece that is only worth 5 points, you will still generate up to 50 points of armor
- Killing Commanders while undetected prevents reinforcements from being called in
- Dual-wielding increases damage output, but reduces your accuracy
- Use the lean feature to your advantage when taking on enemies from behind cover; in fact, abuse the lean feature often
- While sprinting, the enemies will have trouble shooting at you from a distance
- Avoid using melee executions during combat entirely; the animation lasts too long
- Reaching certain sections of a mission will force the game to despawn enemies behind you, even if they were on alert
- Many sections of a mission will still be accessible after passing through them, allowing you be return and collect ammo, armor, or health
- You can distract enemies by throwing canned goods
Once you take your revenge on Übercommander Metze at the end of the game and the final cutscene begins to play out, the achievement will unlock.
The following helped: deleting all saves, completing the story until the device is available, and completing the add-on The Adventure of Gunslinger Joe on difficulty I am the embodiment of death.
So advice: if you want to get this trophy and not dance with a tambourine, then immediately go through the add-on on the I am the embodiment of death difficulty!
