    Pick up the Contract: Imp off the notice board in Hierarch Square in Novigrad. This will lead to the An Elusive Thief quest.

    According to some posts on the internet this achievement may not pop. I thought that was the case for me, but...

    XellizI let him live as well and was able to get the achievement. Story wise, the merchant wasn't happy and paid half the reward.

    Ivan610I let him live and did not get the achievement. Went back to an earlier save and killed him and it popped.

    Giff the StiffWhen you say "later I went back" do you mean you reloaded or you found him again and killed him? Because I let him live and no cheevo and dont have a save prior to ending the quest.

    Sidewinder316I reloaded a save. Sorry for the confusion.

    JhilaxThis is glitched for me and not popping. Reloading and trying the other option didn't work for me.

    update: Did get it to pop...Anyone having the same issue, try doing a restart on your xbox first then reload a previous save to refinish the contract

    VivaJerryNot sure it's connected to letting him live or not....I let him live and it popped first time (Merchant not happy and only half reward)

    FlaaashDepois que você matar o duplice, volta para falar com comerciante e em seguida já estoura a conquista, o meu foi assim '-'

    Tozi TiberiusStill buggy. I spared the mark, finished the quest and nothing. I reloaded the autosave from right after sparing him, talked to the merchant again and it popped immediately.
