    PLAESE NOTE, the "Riktpunkt 45 degree sight" is not a valid attachment for this achievement. Thank you z RagnaroK z for mentioning this!

    Heist: Any
    Difficulty: Overkill
    Weapon: Thanatos .50 Cal Sniper Rifle or Galant Rifle Recommended
    Attachments: Suppressor and 45° Red-Dot Sight(Gadget category)
    Armour: Heavy
    AI: Off
    Skills: Select skills with a boost on silencers and sniper rifle damage and accuracy(see video for my tree)

    Start up any heist and make it loud. Luigi256 recommends Birth of Sky as the enemies barely move inside the plane at the beginning of the heist. If you have the Thanatos, try not to miss too many shots prior to beginning your chain of 10 kills, unless you have the ammo perks from the enforcer tree. The sniper rifle does not have a ton of ammo.

    To toggle between your red dot sight and scope press cn_down. You must begin your chain with a kill from the red dot sight. Meaning that your last kill of the chain will be from your original scope, so keep that in mind when counting. Other than that, it is just a matter of practice and patience while you go for this achievement.

    IceScorpion1230I completed this achievement with the R93, standard barrel, 45 degree red dot, theia magnified scope, and wooden body. Rifleman and stable shot aced, marksman basic. I did the jewelry heist. I took position in the back alley in the corner (opposite side of the car and couch). I could see everyone coming from the passageway and out both windows, could easily pick them off. The whole trick to remember: after each shot, immediately press down on the control pad.
    l chose the R93 over the .50 cal, for 6 bullets per cartridge, smoother recoil, and faster reload time. 3rd best damage. Also, another trick i figured out, start jewelry store in stealth, take the 2 or 3 security guards hostage one by one, after answering all pagers, blast them all using the appropriate scope. The alarm will sound after the first shot. That's okay, 3 down 7 to go. You can also pick off at least one other cop arriving by car before the AI crew shoot. 5 more left.
    also shields can be taken out through the shields.
    I used doctor bags, not ammo. You can pick up ammo from dead cops after AI crew blast them. Ammo bags are a waste here.

    Luigi256For anyone still attempting this, the Birth of Sky heist is the way to go. The enemies barely move inside the plane at the beginning and there are plenty that spawn.

    Apart from the fact the achievement didn't actually unlock,

    Thanks starbreeeze.

    I found a really easy method for this,

    Equip the thanatos sniper rifle that you unlock at I believe level 65, though any sniper rifle should do the trick.

    Stick a suppressor on it.

    Load up scarface mansion.

    All the white suited exterior guards have no pagers, they also only have 80s linen miami vice suits for protection so die really easily.

    Now their should be 3 or 4 in the entrance where you spawn, pop these alternating between sights, a good tip is you can switch the sight while still holding left trigger if you want to pop off more than one in quick succession.

    Now once these 4 are dead, go forwards towards the mansion, you will notice some stairs dead centre with a path at the top one heading left one right.

    Go and make yourself seen, set the alarms off then return to the bottom of this central stair case.

    Now the police won't spawn until you have the head of security's usb drive, he remains static and won't come towards you, he also wears a turquoise suit so is easily identified.

    The normal white suited guards will funnel down into the centre stair case, this is good because its walled on either side so works as a straight bottle neck reducing your chances of missing.

    Bare in mind this has to be done on Overkill and you will probably have to do the mission offline because this games is silly, so bring ai and leave them at the start, as you will need them to carry you for the rest of the mission.

    I've done this now about 6 times online and still no pop so I'd definitely do it offline, you can find that tutorial under the Salem achievement guide.
