This is an easy, fool-proof solution even if you have a weak character and/or weak weapon (and absolutely no aim, like myself):
Go to the tunnel on the SW corner of the map.
Inside that tunnel that takes you to Moresby, there's a fire. Some infected will come running at you in flames.
If you got there in a vehicle, just park it inside the tunnel (not too far inside or you will travel to Moresby).
This is the easy part. You DON'T have to do the killing blow. Just kick the zombie once (and once only) and jump on top of you car and let it die. If you got there on foot, just avoid the zombie (after kicking him once) until it dies.
Rinse and repeat four more times.
I call it the "Hit-and-run-like-a-girl" solution.
NOTE: If you run out of zombies just reload your last checkpoint and go to the tunnel to get your missing zombie(s) avoiding confrontation with other zombies on the way.
NOTE 2: As noted by grasn reloaded, it seems that the higher the level, the longer it would take the fire to kill the zombie. So try this solution early in the game if possible. |

| One easy way to do this achievment is to play through the storyline till you reach act three. Continue following the main plot till you reach a arena like area zombies will come out which are only infected. Use a sharp weapon like a machete and aim and cut off their heads. Rather easy. |

I did this one by the petrol station on the far south west of the Map in the car tunnel where burning zombies run out at you during the waterdance quest when you are going to turn off the power. Its a good spot to do it cuz they run out one by one theres not like 5 of them to worry about at once...
Like DuncanMacleod08, I also used the sickle |

I did this after i did the quest the life is in the bag(quest giving npc is Jack the doctor) for the sickle and getting to the light house , and going through their first set of quests in order to get a quest called counsel of despair ( quest giver James on top of lighthouse) follow way-point to clearing kill all the walkers you encounter at first.
waves of infected will run at you just aim sickle for where their head should be when their about to reach you and swing it should take them off in one hit rinse and repeat until achievement unlocks. |

I wasted so much time looking for random Infected and didn't have any luck because of the amount of Walkers that interfere. But I found you'll have 2 great opportunities at the end of Act I -- so get your meat cleaver, machete or sickle ready...
1. You'll meet up with this dude Nikolai and have to follow him to the beach. At a point he'll be at a cliff you have to jump down and clear of Walkers. There will be 4 Infected that charge at you right away, avoid any stray Walkers while continuing to find more Infected wanting your ass. If you miss your 5 here, there's a much easier spot right afterwards...
2. After you drive the armor truck to the mechanic, you'll have to protect the garage in a fenced-in area... waves of Infected will come charging in -- much more than 5 but you'll also get some Walkers. Remember you can get hit by Infected and it won't affect the achievement.
If you're doing this co-op on the beach area, have your partner(s) take out the Walkers and avoid the Infected. If you're at the garage, have co-op partner(s) climb the ladder while you stay in front of the garage door. |

| I got this one by using the developer Mod #4 during chapter 12, on your way back from the warehouse after replacing the fuses and starting the power generator. As you head back towards the lab you should be charged by virtually nothing but infected, theres only a few of them but the Mod is a 1 hit kill provided its not too damaged, just be aware that you cant kick them or anything, just let them come to you then stab them with that weapon. |

First off, you are going to want to find a sharp melee weapon that excels at dismembering, like the sickle or cleaver. For me, a feeble sickle and tiring homemade cleaver were enough to get the job done. You will want to focus on finding Infected to kill. These are the zombies that run at you - quite fast - as opposed to the lumbering Walkers. These types of zombies are rare on early levels, but can be found in number during certain events. On the west side of the map, I encountered a woman who needed help getting her husband from out of a wrecked car, and I was attacked by 4 Infected there. In order to kill these guys with one hit, use a weapon like mentioned above and swing at their head right before they reach you. If you are, for example, 3/5 for this achievement and hit a checkpoint, you can eject the disc and restart the game if you do not kill the next zombie with one blow and the progress on the achievement will be saved. Reloading from the last checkpoint without ejecting the disc will restart your progress. |

| I got this towards the end of Act 4 when you have loads of infected thrown at you (normally 1-2 at a time). I hadn't attempted this and managed it without trying as I had a good sword which made it easy. |

A relatively easy way to get this would be to have someone who is several levels below yourself (say a lvl 1-5, with you being lvl 25-50) host a game.
The zombies scale to whomever is the host, so you would be easily able to dispatch of them with a single blow. Just run around searching for the Infected - the ones who actually run at you - and avoid your natural instinct to kick them away. |

Spoilers if you haven't made it to the jungle.
I got this achivement in the jungle. There is an area you have to get to and prove yourself to the tribal chief. Jump down into the arena and its a kill or be killed test of strength. The gates will open and at first only 1 infected at a time run out, followed by multiples.
Equip a powerful axe (used Pheonix modded splitting axe) and aim high for the head and swing just as the infected get to you. You can take damage if they get too close, just back up and swing when they come at you.

The solution from PiCkLE SQU1D is simply perfect. As a matter of fact, I was about to post it cause haven't seen anyone else talking about it. So I'll just add some information to help it be more effective.
First of all, it can be a little bit hard to find a game from someone in lower levels if you're really advanced in the main story. The game seeks nearby players to offer you matchs so you can join. Because of that, if you're in the Jungle, for example, only people playing on that region will appear in your game looby. Travel back to the Safeguard Tower before start seeking games to join. Now just look in your list someone who's still playing chapter 2 to 4. Join it and check if the zombies are still in level 10 or lower. Now go to the portion of the beach near the rocks and you shold not have trouble to find some infecteds. If you're near level 50 and using a compatible level weapon, one blow will be more than enough to take down de undeads.
I took me only two trys to get the achivo, and that's because a Walker spoiled my combo. If you need to farm some XP to reach higher levels, try using the video bellow (credits for Nvoy123).
WARNING: Don't forget to turn off the compensation system under the options menu, otherwise the zombies will still be in the same level as your caracter when you join other people's games (Thanx to Pyro1099 for the advice).

The easiest by far solution if you have a level 20+ character:
Find yourself a boosting buddy. Have them create a new character in a new game. Make sure that the enemy levels are low, not same level as you. Join their game.
Run down the beach and past the dude trapped in the truck into an open area just after. There will be 3 infected in the open area that run after you. Kill them (3/5) and then quit out. Then have the other player create another NEW GAME with a NEW character... otherwise the 3 infected won't run at you again. Join and do the same thing (5/5) and the achievement should be yours. This method takes less than 5 minutes to complete. |

I found that the best way to get this achievement was at the end of Act 2 (Chapter 9) when you're escorting Jin to the bunker. After you stop the armored truck and head onto the path a little ways two Infected will come screaming toward you. Stand you ground, aim high (I've found aiming a little higher than their head will ensure a decapitation), and time your swing. That's two down.
Head down the path a little further and three Infected will charge you, but not at the same time. This is really important, as you don't have to worry about being overwhelmed. Three more down and the achievement is yours!
And just in case you mess up on the first few you will face three more as you round the next corner and head under the arched rock. Two will come at you simultaneously, and the third will charge shortly thereafter.
I was on level 38 when I got this, and I used a level 37 Venom Bolo Machete (purple). Base damage 604+369 fully upgraded. Good luck!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit: Upon additional playthroughs for the Right 4 Life achievement, there is a much earlier point in the game that you can earn this achievement. When you have to defend the chopshop where Jin and her father modify the armored truck at least 10 Infected will coming screaming toward you in waves of 1, 2, or 3.
The important thing here is that you have a sharp weapon (I used the machete I received from Nikolai after completing the crashed helicopter quest) at 100% and fully upgraded. When two come at you close together I recommend backing up as you swing at the first and quickly swinging again as you continue to back up. Otherwise you might take too much damage or use the kick button by reflex.
I have found that the best place to hang out is to the left of the garage door (if you are facing away from the door). This way your back is covered. There are also three energy drinks in a toolbox by the fence. Finally, if things really get heated and you need a minute there is a ladder right by the fence that leads to a little bit of scaffolding that you can relax on.
The Infected tend to come in less manageable groups than the first part of my solution, but you should be fine as long as you stay focused and use a little more strategy. Remember to aim for the Infected's head! |

| I did this at the end of Act I, when you protect the mechanic to upgrade your van. About 15 infecteds attack you in pairs, I was using a Machete with Shock Mod, aim for the head and watch heads rolling. |

I did this in the Bloodbath Arena. Arena A which is very easy. Same as the other guides have mentioned take a relatively high character and around level 4-5 you start getting lots of infected. They move faster than the walkers and other types so just run around and let the infected catch up to you and kill them with 1 blow. You will see the skulls on your radar moving towards you really quickly so they are easy to spot. |

Hi
**Story Spoiler**
Here's my stress-free guide to the way I unlocked this achievement.
Don't worry about this until the 3rd Act when while following the main quest line you are sent to the Native's Village.
You enter an arena and are then challenged with killing tribal warriors, all of whom are infected.
I was Sam B and specialized in blunt weapons to give you an idea of how relatively easy this is.
The weapon i used was a Q reward, a blue machete. Any sharp or edged weapon will do though preferably with longer reach than say a knife.
There is a helpfully placed save as soon as you enter the arena so if you miss a kill just load last checkpoint.
Aim for the head and away you go. I only had to reload once.
Good Luck |

K hands down the most efficient way of getting this achievement is to play through act 1, yes act one not 2 or 3 lol wait till you get the truck and have to re-enforce it at the shop. Go there and get the truck there and then you will have to protect it from infected, they run at you like bats out of hell which makes it a lot easier to kill them stand and wait for them to come and time it correctly you will have your achievement in seconds.
