  • How to unlock Guillotined

    The lift can be used by going up to it and jumping on. You will cut a rope and be raised into the air, meanwhile a weight will go down hard opposite of you. An enemy must in that exact spot. If you stab an enemy there and then use it, before they completely die the weight can still give the final blow for the achievement.

If an enemy is standing below the lift it will kill him and unlock the achievement for you. Simply get detected, look for such a lift, and wait for the enemies to catch up. Lure them below the lift and then cut the rope.

  • This can easily be obtained on the Cafe Theatre mission called Damsel in Seamstress. You have to obtain 3 costumes in three different areas. One of the two areas is in Le Maris. Simply go in the green zone and you will see a lift right beside a guard. Get spotted by the guard on purpose and he will follow you to the lift.

  • This one happened for me on the very first fly I used to get away from pursuers
  • This achievement isnt popping for me. It comes up in game saying lift kill but no achievement. Anyone else finding this?
  • @6 im having the same problem must have done it ten times
  • Confirming #3's Damsel in Seamstress method. One of the courtyards with a costume contains a small garden entrance with one guard. To your immediate right from this entrance is a lift. Just give the guard a couple of seconds to engage you, then run up to the lift. No skill is really required for this one to pop. I can't confirm if the guard placement is the same there if you're not playing the mission.
  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzDFVv5O1eM this is a quick and easy guide
  • During the side mission "tapestry thief" just as you first see the thief there is a lift with a spear wielder right under it, easiest way to get the achievement.
  • Here is how I unlocked the achievement - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct9i7L-N5cY
  • I got this without trying during one of my first rift missions
  • I thought it would be the tricky one, but got it in the first try. Rated 2/5.
  • I did what #8 said, got it first try. FYI, it's the western area.
