Trophy Guide: Trophies And Achievements

Guide to bioshock infinite trophies: Well Rounded, Vigorous Opposition, Mind Over Matter, More for Your Money, Combination Shock, On the Fly, Bolt From the Blue, and Aerial Assassin.

Well Rounded

Used all 8 Vigors against enemies.

Vigorous Opposition

Killed 75 enemies either with a Vigor or while the enemy is under the effects of a Vigor.

This is one of those achievements that you will work away at over time. Enemies that you kill using a vigor attack, or those that are under the influence of a damage over time/crowd control vigor attack (e.g Murder of Crows, Bucking Bronco, Undertow, Devil’s Kiss etc.) when you shoot them to death will count. Once you have killed 75 of them in this manner, the achievement/trophy will unlock. If you only use vigors semi-regularly, you should still get this one before the end of your first playthrough.

Mind Over Matter

Killed 20 enemies using Possessed machines.

This achievement requires the Possession ability. You must use the vigor to possess machines and have them kill your enemies for you. The machines that can be possessed include: Auto-turrets, Rocket turrets, Mosquitos and Motorized patriots.

More for Your Money

Lured 3 enemies into a single Vigor trap 5 times.

This one requires that you plant a trap and have it go off and damage three enemies simultaneously. After you’ve done it once, repeat the process another 4 times until it unlocks. A great place to earn this one is whilst fighting the sirens in the Memorial Gardens. When she brings back the dead, 3-4 enemies will appear around her and float beside her for a few moments. Plant a trap on the ground below them. When the enemies land, the trap will go off and damage them all. The best traps to use for this purpose are the Devil’s kiss, Murder of Crows and Bucking Bronco.

Combination Shock

Performed all 8 of the Vigor combinations.

There are eight vigor combination attacks in the game that can be used by using a pair of vigors on an enemy in quick succession. here is a list of the combinations that count towards the achievement/trophy and a short description about what they do:

• Devil’s Kiss + Possession - Possess an enemy and then use Devil’s Kiss on them. The affected enemy will run around, spreading flames to other enemies in the area.
• Devil’s Kiss + Murder of Crows - Lights the crows on fire, causing both crow and fire damage over time whilst also increasing your weapon damage to the affected enemy.
• Devil’s Kiss + Bucking Bronco - Use Bucking Bronco to suspend enemies in the air and then use the Devil’s Kiss vigor to hit them to cause a chain explosion.
• Devil’s Kiss + Charge - Toss a Devil’s Kiss at a bad guy and then immediately do a charge attack for extra damage. This can be difficult if you have upgraded Devil’s Kiss, so if you are having trouble, equip the Burning Halo piece of Gear and just use Charge normally. If the Halo effect goes off during a Charge attack, it will count towards unlocking this one.
• Bucking Bronco + Charge - Use Bucking Bronco to suspend enemies in the air and then use the charge vigor to launch them into the distance. Great for knocking enemies off of cliffs!
• Shock Jockey + Possession - Possess an enemy and then use Shock Jockey on them. The affected enemy will run around, spreading electricity damage to other enemies in the vicinity.
• Shock Jockey + Murder of Crows - Electrifies the swarm of crows, causing both crow and fire damage over time whilst also increasing your weapon damage to the affected enemy.
• Shock Jockey + Undertow - Hold down the undertow button to draw an enemy to you. As they arrive, they will float in front of you for a second or two, held in place by a tendril of water. Hit them with a blast of Shock Jockey to electrify them for an instant kill!

On the Fly

Killed 30 enemies while riding a Sky-Line.

Whilst riding on a sky-line, shoot and kill 30 enemies. Use the throttle or decelerate and use the iron sights on your weapons to make this task a little easier.

Bolt From the Blue

Killed 5 enemies with a headshot (a shot that lands on the enemy's head, usually an instant kill) while riding a Sky-Line.

Whilst riding on a sky-line, you need to kill 5 enemies with a head shot. grab a carbine or a sniper rifle (these are the easiest weapons for the task) and hop on a sky-line. Use the decelerate function to slow down your movement on the sky-line and use the iron sights on your carbine or the scope on the sniper rifle to make it easier to line up your shots.

Aerial Assassin

Killed 20 enemies with a Sky-Line Strike.

Whilst riding a sky-line, you can put your reticule on enemies on the ground below you. A small, yellow indicator will appear on the ground below them when they are susceptible to a sky-line attack. Hit the jump button when
