[quote name='icebeast']I don't have the achievement, but it does say it has to be a fatal fall, are you dieing when you miss? If not maybe you aren't jumping down from high enough up.
I played some AH3 tonight, I'm liking Weiss a lot, but Heart is also sweet. I did a little training, as well as tried to play through story mode but I couldn't beat one of the late fights (like the gal activates whatever happens when you hit the 3 attack buttons (still need to learn a bit of the advanced systems in this game) and she stays in that mode for the entire second round after you beat her once which seemed to half or more the damage from all my attacks). I also dropped the difficulty kind of low before I played story mode (I want to say it was on 3 of 8) and all the battles before that one were mostly trivial and that one was basically bullshit because attacks didn't damage her very much, not sure maybe there is something you are supposed to do in that fight.[/QUOTE]
Definitely wasn't the height -- I just couldn't for the life of me trigger an assassination when I actually managed to land in the vicinity of the elite. I'd either melee the ground and live, melee the air and bounce off him and live, or melee him to death but not assassinate.
Not sure what I did that final time, but I got it. No more Halo Reach single player achievements (unless you count the daily/weekly challenges ones). Back to gears 3 beta.
