  Hey everyone, I found a spot in Chapter 4 Recollection. After your big fight (the first one you do in the mission). You will eventually have to open a door to proceed. Open that door, once you get the collectible THE JOUREY: CARVED CANOE (its on the table in front of you) you will also get a checkpoint. We will use this checkpoint until you get the required kills. Proceed on to the mission and drop down a little drop. You will be surprised with Juvies. Kill them (there is about 10) and go back to last checkpoint you should end up back at the door. Repeat until achievement pops!
  
  Also this is my first guide if i need to redo this to help give more clarification let me know, Happy hunting!

  @IMKevin117 - I had the exact same issue. Trying to get this achievement by activating Mac's ultimate ability was almost impossible as he barely kills anyone. Going to have to do this by playing as him myself, but the fact all upgrades get wiped on chapter select is really bad game design.

  AI kills don't count.

  No, after you finished the campaign just select a chapter from the menu and start the game, if you check the ability menu it already says; "upgrade found in chapter x " kill a few enemies and reload the checkpoint until it pops up, same for the Lahni achievement ( I choose the beginning of chapter 5, select a frag grenade and throw them at the enemies at the back, then press Y and throw another grenade at the enemies in front of you, or just use your gun, then reload the checkpoint)

  Hi guys:
  
  You have to start the last chapter (6, THE PATH) in order to pick up the last ability, you can follow a guide but it's pretty straight forward. As soon as you get this continue the mission normally and you will see a juvie in front of you (shot him, don't use the ability). As soon as you pass that you will see a lot of juvies coming for you. Then activate your ability, go to the left corner where the juvies drops and use B button (knife). This will increase you barrier time and make your kills counts for the achievement. As soon as you lose your ability restart the checkpoint and repeat the same method. You should be able to make it pops in a few minutes.
  
  Sorry for my English but is not my first language.
