How do you get the emperor slayer achievement?

I'm confused, is there some special way to obtain it? Last night me and a few guys killed a emperor and his group over 4 times and still no achievement...

    Indeed, requires you to get the killing blow on the emperor. It doesn't count like the "Kill 10 <class> players" where the credit is shared with the group. The achievement requires it to be your attack that drops the person's health to death.

    Also to note that there are two versions of this achievement. One is for killing ANY current emperor, and the other being for killing the emperor of the campaign you're homed on. Both still require you to be the one who lands the killing hit.

    Hhhhmm.

    I was in keep on the 2nd floor.
    Emp was on 1st floor outer keep at the door of inner keep.
    Emp was surrounded by 20 players trying to bring him down in 1.5 or 1.6.
    He was actually winning.
    So I dropped from above and dumped Soul Tether on him.
    He wiped a couple of ticks later.
    So it could be a combination of people using soul leech or the tethered dots.

    That how I got mine anyway.
    Dont think I had the killing blow.

    If i remember there are 2 achieves...

    One requires killing any ruling emp in any campaign you can enter (basically your guest or home these days).

    The other requires killing the emp of your home campaign.

    Pretty sure you have to get the killing blow for both.

    Yep, killing blow it is. It's a nice colour, so the not so easy achievement feels very rewarding. Offing home campaign emperor completes both achievements.

    I want to say I'm annoyed by this but truthfully in the group I was in, I likely contributed least staying out of range and doing dot from a distance so it's only fair one of the others who's his attention was focused on and did more damage gets the achievement. *Sigh*
