- My friend
Retrieve resources from a prospecting robot at a terminal.
You will get the Seeker Bot in Chapter 5.
You can also play a short tutorial on how to use them.
Basically it's like equipping a weapon (it will fill the top spot of the inventory).
In the robot there is a scanner and every time you arrive in an area where your bot can find resources the radar will give a signal and you will know that you can have the bot collect resources.
It is not possible to pick up the robot after putting it down; to place it on the ground aim and shoot as if you were using a gun.
Finally, it will be necessary to wait 10 minutes at the workbench for it to reappear.

- Metal detector
Successfully dispatch seeker robots to 15 resource areas.
As seen above, it is possible to have Seeker Bots that can go in search of useful items.
To unlock the achievement you will have to send the robot to 15 different areas.
Visualize the areas where it is best to place them; to do this, press the "UP" arrow and the radar will appear.
Follow the instructions it gives you and when it activates, place the robot and have it look for resources.
For the purpose of the result, the robot cannot continue to search for resources in the same area. To be able to use the bot again, you need to wait 10 minutes at the workbench. The following video shows how to use the robot: Video Available

- The blacksmith
Create a weapon.
You can craft weapons near a workbench, now choose to make a new one.
There are various steps to follow to build a weapon and you will have to add the components that the game asks you for.
This includes the upper and lower frame, tools, optional accessories, and circuit upgrades.
This will be one of your first results, but alternatively you can also just modify one of your weapons.

- Circuit Wizard
Add a circuit to a weapon.
Circuits are weapon enhancements.
There are two upgrades, two lower and two upper, for a total of 8 slots.
This menu can be accessed in two ways; it can be found in the weapon crafting in "Upgrade Circuits", or it can easily be found by going to weapon upgrades.
To build a circuit you will need resources in order to design and use them. Select the weapon and you will see the circuit menu; choose an empty slot and choose which type of modification you want to add.
If you no longer have free slots you need to create one, so choose a type of circuit and decide to build a new one.
You will have 4 circuit options to choose from:

- Loading
- Rate of fire
- Harm
- Ammunition

- First line doctor
Make a large med kit.
To make an object, you need to use a workbench.
Access the counter menu and go to the Medical Kits creation section; now choose to build a big one.
You need a total of 120 Somatic Gels (resources) in order to create one.

- All busy
Create a weapon with 2 tools, tips and couplings with all circuit slots occupied.
At your workbench you will need to set up a weapon so that every available slot is filled.
There are a total of 15 slots that must be used; the constituent parts of the weapon cannot be by default, but must be handcrafted creations or pieces chosen from those collected. I recommend trying to take this Trophy together with the "Supreme Project" Trophy. Here is a video showing how to do it: AVAILABLE VIDEO

- Uber-RIG
Fully upgrade your RIG.
The RIG is the suit you wear throughout the game.
There are 3 main branches that you can update, with a total of 8 categories.
You can update the RIG once you have found the update stations for it.

- RIG: Hit Points, Air and Armor
- Stasis: Energy, duration, and recharge
- Kinetics: Damage and range

Each type of change requires different types of resources.
To fully upgrade the RIG, you will need the following resources:

- Scrap me
- Gel somatico
- Transducer
- Tungsten
- Semiconductors

Some items will be harder to find than others.
It is possible to sell the things you no longer need at the workbench, to gain the resources you still lack.
You can also use the seeker bots to retrieve other valuable items.
The game will tell you exactly how many resources you need to recover for each modification and how many you have.

- Supreme project
Create a project that requires at least 2000 component and circuit resources to build.  
At the work table go to the create project section. You will have to create one using important resources, in order to exceed the value of 2000 resources. I recommend trying to take this Trophy together with the "All Busy" Trophy. Here is a video showing how to do it: AVAILABLE VIDEO

While playing Co-Op, enemies will sometimes be able to grab a hold on you or your partner.

There are many types of enemies that can perform an execution.

- Share and conquer
Use the RIG to give an item to your co-op partner.
Open the inventory menu, where you can normally drop or use an item; you should see the opportunity to donate to your partner.
Select a resource and until your partner's inventory is full, you will be able to continue replenishing your friend.

After creating your project, in co-op go to the work table and select it to share it with your partner. The project must be created, otherwise it will not work.

- Leave them!
Kill 30 enemies with axes.
Some enemies (shown in the video) hold axes in their hands, ready to use them on you; all you have to do is use stasis and freeze time, shoot the enemy's arm and drop his weapon.
Now use the kinetic power and throw it at him to kill him; repeat all 30 times and you will unlock the result.
I recommend trying to unlock the achievement during Chapter 14; you will be called upon to take on an optional mission called the Disposal Service.
Almost the entire mission has this type of enemies, so everything will be easier. AVAILABLE VIDEO

- Vengeance
Kill a soldier by sending back a grenade or rocket with telekinesis.

To finish earlier, remember to also shoot the stump you just detached.

You will meet the soldiers (humans) at the beginning of the game and at the end, so try to unlock the achievement as soon as you can.
All you have to do is kill them with a headshot; sometimes 2 shots will be required, the important thing is that the soldier is killed with a shot to the head.

- Personal matter

This result is very simple to do and is a good resource because it does not make you waste ammunition and above all saves your life if you don't have any more. Approach an enemy and kill him in melee; repeat 30 times to unlock the result.

- Loses acid

In order to start killing enemies with acid, you must first unlock the appropriate weapon.
Once obtained, simply shoot to dispel the enemies.
There are many places where you can try to unlock the achievement, but the best is chapter 14 in cooperative mode, while playing with Carver. When you get to the final mission, shadows will appear and if you move a little from the mission objective the enemies will reach infinity giving you the chance to reach the 50 enemies killed with acid.
