Death from above?

How does one perform Death From Above per the challenge in Sibirskaya-7?

you have to jump down on enemy from roof or rock. Like in the opening just after tutorial mission.

And enemy must be directly under you, if it right next, it won't work. All it seems to help if they are unaware of your presence. (white mark, not red)

Use rocks to lure them in a position that works for you.

Yeaaaa, this is not working. I've literally landed on this guy's head trying to perform death from above but i'm not triggering the takedown. Is there a skill associated with this?

EDIT . . . sigh, just figured it out, apparently you have to jump down from behind them, guess I'm just used to Far Cry's mechanic of landing on them no matter which way you're facing

Kills from above can be done if you drop on enemy from a roof building on the sibirskaya junction map, no need to press for a melee as it will be automatic.

It's not automatic, lol. I just now dropped right behind a heavy (I have the perk to takedown heavies), and I just bounced right off his head --I had to resort to a manual takedown.

One has to land on the back. not the head. Heavies can't be killed that way I suppose.

They can if you bought the skill to melee heavies.

Are you suggesting that heavies can be killed with the 'death from above' technique if I have the steel grip skill?

It would be better if you add a video description for the demonstration. Cuz I never saw anyone do it. You did this yourself?

I tried lots of times. Kept thinking I was just bad at death-from-above but, I've never been able to take down a heavy guy that way. I keep sliding off his head.

If you bounced off his head you didn't do it right :D
