I've recently completed the "One Shot, Fifty kills!" achievement on the Starcraft II single player campaign, after 1 ½ hour of work, therefor i would like to guide interested players with the achievement so you don't have to spend as much time on this as i did.

I'm covering my strategy in the "Spoiler" below.

+ Show Spoiler +
1) Location: The spot where i completed the achievement was about half way to the second Fissure Point. You'll recive a message from General Warfield right before reaching the location, the message is telling you to rescue a group of firebats and medics that are under attack by the zerg. Rescue the forces and then save your game before moving on.

2) Positions: You want to have as many Infested Terrans gathered at the same location as possible, therefor i decided to send all my reinforcements and heroes far behind to prevent them from taking part of combat or getting attention from any monsters. I used 1 Medic and Egon Stetmann to trigger the spawn event.

Once triggered i ran to the location where i rescued the firebats and positioned the Medic in the top left conor and Egon Stetmann as close to the Medic as possible. You'll have a wave of Infested Terrans hunting you down to this spot and they will try to attack your Medic since the medic has top attack priority. But if you are positioned correctly Egon Stetmann will block the path to the Medic and prevent the medic from being attacked. This allows the Infested Terrans to stack up in the room without causing any harm on your units.

3) Execution: Once all the waves of Infested Terrans have stopped spawning and reached the "room" where your Medic and Egon are located it's time to save the game. (See picture below) It's now time to move Jim Raynor to a good position and try to aim your Penetrator Round ability to hit as many units as possible. You must be ready to fire before too many of the Infested Terran leaves the room, otherwise you'll not be able to kill 50 targets in one shot. Decide a location to move to, then aim carefully and fire.

[image loading]
This is the ideal positioning that i used.

If you don't manage to earn the achievement at the first try you can simply reload the saved file and try again. Keep going until you succeed!

Good Luck!


Edit (2010/08/23): Added an old screenshot that i forgot to upload before

I've done it multiple times and not got the achievement (I checked my kill count before and after). Kinda annoying.

This pretty much exactly how I did it. Worked on my first try.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Even simpler, just back up to the entrance to the room they start in and shoot when they get close. Don't bother going back up that tunnel.

I did it on my first try after my friend told me that was the room where he got it.

Then I did it again when I reloaded to save a medic.

Pretty easy achievement as long as you use that group of Infested.

Don't do it on brutal btw. It only works on hard afaik.

Was trying desperately on brutal, eventually went to complete the mission realising i've killed 58 or so, with one shot.
Probably something to do with there being more enemies, and thus perhaps easier.

Still a bit odd, as the other achievements work perfectly fine for toucher difficulties.

I did it on hard after a few tries, but after the mission finished, it said the most sniper kills with 1 shot was 36... But I still got the achievement.

I did the medic trick today, I'm getting 59 kills and still no achievement is popping up. From the videos, it doesn't look like the achievement message is broken so whats up?

EDIT: I spoke too early, after the 5th time I got 55+ kills it worked 57 kills on that one less than some others I had done.

i think it's because i did it on hard, might be easier on brutal with more units. kind of like in utter darkness.

yea so? still at 200/200
when i did it my health tanked..

im assuming.. just like sc1, if you have power overwhelming on it still tells you your under attack.. after the second hit it shows it on the minimap.. thats why dts in bw were so good if you sneak them in a drone line.. one hit kills = no alarm.

dunno how he got the achievement with the cheat..

w/e.. this vid helped me get the achievement so im happy
