Subject: It's Hard Being Good

I have would like to get the achievement "Good Samaritan" ,but when I do campaign (not new but replay for campaign if that helps)I also know you have to be the Rookie, so when I walk through the mission I don't kill the engineer ,but it blows up anyway (is there a way to prevent this or do I have to kill it for it not to count?). To sum this all up how do I get the Good Samaritan achievement?

I don't need reality.

Just play through the entire campaign from the start without killing a single Engineer. They will blow up when their squad dies, but as long as you didn't actually hit them with anything, it doesn't count as a kill so you are still safe. Just be careful not to shoot any of them, especially on the level where you get in a Banshee and have to escort the hijacked Phantom; some of them fly around in that level and you can accidentally hit one, ruining the achievement.

Thanks but I have to go through the whole campaign or just the bottom ones(on the replay mission select you play as rookie on the bottom few missions)?

The Kikowani station level doesn't affect the good Samaritan achievement.

The easiest way is to speed run the campaign on easy. Just start a new game on easy and run through everything. Like the post above me says, killing Engineers on Kikowani Station is ok, just don't kill any in the city at night.
