Also I need to know how to how to get the acheivement "If they came to hear me beg" were you must perform an assassination against an elite to survive a fall that would've been fatal. Apperently this achievement is the hardest one I have ever come accross. Can anyone who got this achievement please enlighten me on how to get it.
That one was annoying. I followed trough tons of tips untill one guy pointed it out otherwise and I got it on the first try.

Alright, I have good news for everyone. After literally 7 hours of attempting this achievement I got it about 20minutes ago. I realized what I was doing wrong and I'm fairly confident that most other people don't realize what they're doing wrong as well.
I am so confident that I know what to do I went on another account and got it the very first try.I even went a step further and I told this to a few friends and after hours of trying they got it their first try with this method.
My story for this achievement goes like this, I tried for 3 hours the day it came out, I tried every possible combination imaginable such as *when to shut off sprint, how far to jump ect..*as I'm sure many others have and don't understand why they're not getting it. I watched several videos and I knew I was doing it just as the videos described. I tried for 2 more hours over the past several days as well and then about 2 more today. I decided to take a break and I went to read some comments on youtube just to see if I could get any insight simply b/c sometimes you just don't think of everything yourself.
I then came upon a video on Youtube, the video isn't important, what is important is a comment someone made that says THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT EVERY VIDEO TELLS YOU TO DO. The commenter said instead of stopping the sprint early he waited until about he was 5 feet * or 1 second* away from the elite then he stopped it and did an assassination and he got the achievement, and guess what ? It worked the FIRST TIME I tried it. Every person is telling you to stop the sprint long before you're near the elite.
Now, I'm a logical person and I payed attention to what I did when I obtained the achievement, literally everything I did was the exact same as I was doing for the past 7 hours EXCEPT when I was stopping the sprint.
In the 7 hours I was trying I never tried waiting that long to stop sprint and I'm quite sure most other people aren't either.
Something worth mentioning is that you also might need to jump slightly earlier than you've been doing in the past.
I did it in 4 minutes after reading this :D
