    I recommend doing this on Minos Wasteland > Fortis> Aequitas. There's a side mission there that has you investigating a mining colony. It's full of husks, including 4 at the very beginning. Since achievement counts aren't affected by reloads, you can kill the 4 then reload and do them again, over and over until you get the achievement.

    At the end of this mission, there is also what seems to be unlimited husks and unlimited ammo, so you might be able to grind it there as well.

    CornerscoutIt should be noted that in order for the strike to count, you must shoot them in the chest after. It wasn't quite clicking for me because I kept shooting them in the legs after punching them. If you press B and then aim for the chest and hold the trigger down during the melee animation, you will get it every time.

    Also, adrenaline rush works wonders in this part. If you're not careful they can mob you pretty quickly, so using adrenaline rush makes it easy since it slows everything down to a crawl.

    This is easiest done with Husks. You can find a lot of husks on the Horizon colony which is story related. Simply run up to them with a shotgun or pistol and melee them with B and shoot them as fast as you can. You should see an achievement tracker after each kill

    The easiest way to do this is with someone who can Hack. Have them hack a Geth... then when its on your side punch it and kill it!

    Specifcially, do the side mission N7: Wrecked Merchant Freighter which is located on Neith (4th planet/Amun system/Eagle Nebula cluster). Apparently there are 180 Mechs... plenty hack and melee.

    iagoAnyone doing this achievement on Insanity with an Infiltrator and struggling: I did it on Minos Wasteland > Fortis> Aequitas as suggested and used a Mantis (with Disruptor Ammo, but shouldn't matter). Beginning of the mission with the 4 husks: First I scoped and did a body shot which got the husk down to 3/4 health and no armor. Let the husk get closer, cloak, get real close, one melee and instantly a no-scope shot to the chest. Worked almost every time. Make sure you don't shoot their feet as this does not appear to count when they get killed this way.
