The easiest spammiest way to get this sepecific one is to park your Mako anywhere you can see it. Then, simply cast Neural Shock onto it.
You'll notice the red wave's of energy after you hit from each one casting, which means you successfully landed a hit.
It registers as an organic enemy being hit, just do this 75 times, no pressure whatsoever. The Mako will receive damage though so just in case repair it once or twice in the process to make sure nothing bad happens. |

| Just start an engineer and make sure you have AI hacking and Neural shock before you attack Fist in Chora's Den. Then save before you enter his room and cast hacking on a turret and neural shock on fist, then load the save you just made. Rinse, Repeat. |

This doesn't work against Citadel Rapid Transit terminals.
I got it on "Easy" by going to Feros. First, I used neural shock and wiped out the Varren pack, and then worked on the Alpha male. The alpha male took quite a few shocks before dying. Then I went to the Krogans guarding the communications relay. I was able to peek around the corner and keep hitting the same Krogan again and again without him charging out after me. |

For those who didn't play engineer, this is one way to try: just start a new game on casual and level up until you unlock the five engineer powers (namely neural shock, ai hacking, damping, overload, and sabotage).
Then, go downstairs in Feros across from the Varren pack there is a room with Geth protecting some Krogan. Save, then go in, there will be two geth slightly above you, cast AI hacking on one, then sabotage on the other, wait a little and a flying turret will attack, cast overload and run forward, another geth will appear. Shoot down his shield and cast damping, then run past him into the next room and cast neural shock on a Krogan. Rinse and repeat.
This should net you all five achievements with the shortest amount of reloads.
Note, the last one I needed to get was neural shock, which doesn't seem to work on Geth. Just turn around and use it on the Varren pack (as olde fortran 77 mentioned) at that point so you won't have to keep fighting through the geth to get to the Krogans. |

Seeing as nobody has mentioned this useful thread I guess I'll put it on here...

As for my own tips...
-You will require to be at least level 6 to unlock all Engineer/Adept achievement related powers.
-Install Mass Effect to your hard drive, it literally halves the time taken to load a save file.
-Use the load save file method instead of waiting. NOTE: Make sure not to turn off your console as this deletes the temporary files. Save regularly to avoid this! |

| The way i have literally just got this achievement is by going to pinnacle station so i can grind out the 150 medkit uses and starting a survival match on the volcanic level and using the neural shock ability (which i mapped to the rb button) on the incoming pirates i got maybe 2 or 3 in a match but as i have many games to go for the medkit then it saved time having to attack the mako on a seperate attempt. |

If you want to do a different method or a lazy method in getting this achievement and you don't want to do the long, boring, normal grind for this achievement.  Then pull out your turbo controller and do the following:
- pick a class that has or have this skill obtainable
- when you have this skill available to use, go to a planet, get out of the Mako, then face the Mako (make sure to target the little blue circle on the Mako) and make sure it's safe (away from enemies and avoid a planet that has Hazards)
- during normal gameplay hold the "RB" button
- highlight "Neural Shock" then press "X" (Map Skill) to assign it to your "RB" button
- let go of the "RB" button
- set the "RB" button on turbo on your controller
- rubber band the "RB" button down (make sure you are still facing the blue circle of the Mako)
- then watch TV, go on the internet, go to sleep , go to the bathroom, go eat, or go to the bathroom and eat.
- make sure to come back every so often to repair your Mako from the damage your doing to it (damage might depend on difficulty but unconfirmed)
You can just let your turbo controller and rubber band to cast and recast the skill for you. In the mean while do your chores, do your fun homework, or go to work and come back later to get your cheevo!
Happy boosting!  |

One way you can work Neural Shack and A.I. Hacking, not to mention Medi-Gel usage, is to do the following. Obviously, you need to make sure that your Shepard can use the abilities, so a Lv. 6+ Engineer is a perfect choice.
For NEURAL SHOCK, take your crew to Liara's Dig Site (Artemis Tau > Knossos > Therum) when you first get the Normandy. Right after the Mako touches down and you have control, disembark the vehicle and save your game. Target the Mako and use Neural Shock (you'll know it hit when the Mako glows with red energy). Then look down and toss a grenade at your feet, blow it up, and use your Medi-Gel to heal. Once you do this, LOAD your saved game (delete the Auto Save if there is one so you don't load the wrong file) and repeat the Neural Shock / Grenade / Medi-Gel sequence. Keep a tally on a piece of paper and every 10 times, save your game and load THAT save. Repeat until the Neural Shock achievement hits.
For A.I. HACKING, hit up Feros (Attican Beta > Theseus > Feros). Save your game just before speaking with the man on the walkway once you land. There should be some Geth that attack after the short word exchange. Use A.I. Hacking on one of them, then toss a grenade at your feet and use Medi-Gel to recover, just like you did on Therum, then LOAD your save. Also like before, SAVE your game every 10 times you repeat the cycle, for progress safety.
Assuming that you have never used these abilities, by the time you get the A.I. Hacking achievement, you will ALSO get the Medi-Gel one,, which takes twice as long (150 uses compared to 75 for abilities). A boring but easy way to get those out of the way so you can focus on fun achievements like the Insanity playthrough! :D |
