    Hello TA!

    The simplest way is to build a completely new weapon with "Heavy Elite Frame" as frame, "Surveyor Charge" as Upper Tool and "Directed Ejection Field" as Upper Tool Tip.

    Upper tool tip is important because you want to not go into pieces when you shoot your partner.
    IMPORTANT: Do NOT use safety guard! It makes this method impossible to use!
    I played on Casual difficulty, because you don't get gibbed as easily. I also did this after completing the game.

    Trick is this: Have your co-op buddy stand infront of you and shoot his mine launcher into your face or shoulder, maybe a bit over you. All that matters is that his gun points at you. This should bring him to low health at first and on the second shot bring him down. Then mash A asap and have your buddy shoot you again. He'll go down in a single shot even if you have an fully upgraded RIG and therefore this is the easiest solution.
    Team damage isn't enabled in the game either, so no danger to the guy who gets the achievement.

    I went to the start of Chapter 4 because there are no obstructions at all and as a bonus there is a bench next to you. It took me a single minute to get the achievement, so it is far faster and less risky than getting slashed by necromorphs :)

    I have attached an image of the weapon used. I also underlined the most important parts with red. Once again: NO SAFETY GUARD ATTACHMENT!
    Your secondary weapon doesn't matter.

    Have fun getting downed!

    The best way to do this is in the video im gunna attach. Load up the prologue and when two enemies turn up, kill the first one and let the other one down your partner, rinse and repeat.

    MetroidkillahThis worked quite well. However, a couple things to note:
    - It helps to take the legs out from under the remaining enemy and slow him down.
    - After downing you partner, the enemy will continue to attack 2 or 3 more times before moving on to you. These attacks will hurt you if you are close enough.

    WhoElseButDNIt worked well for me and a friend just running past them while they are downed and just mashing the a button as you go past, but this is a good point as well :-)

    When your coop partner goes down, they will call to you. Walk up next to them and hit A to revive them. A very good place to get this is in the coop mission CSM Brusilov. After finding the marker and going down the elevator, as soon as you exit there will be a single necromorph. Take his legs off so he is a crawler. Now, to the left of where you exited the elevator, there is a little spot where you are going to get this. The person who is reviving, stand back in that little corner, and the person who is getting downed will block the necromorph by standing in front of their partner. Simply hit A whenever the one goes down, and when you get the achievement, simply swap spots, and kill the thing when you are done.
