When you stand behind an enemy pilot and hold the melee button, you perform an (interruptible) pilot execution. For multiplayer, there are multiple different animations and to unlock them you need to perform a certain amount of pilot executions.
I realized that you can also perform executions on NPC grunts. Do those also count as pilot executions for those unlocks?
Best Answer
For the "Inner Pieces" unlock which requires 50 pilot executions, performing an execution on a grunt does not count towards the 50 count.
I wish it did while I was working on the 50, it took some doing. The best way I found to get them was to use the map hack boost along with a stim pack. That way you can see where they are, and get there quickly :)
