TheKirbs Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I've seen online that you don't need the flamethrower to get this trophy but I've set 30+ ships on fire and still not got it. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know any solutions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I haven't seen anyone say with definitive proof that you didn't need the flamethrower (and several accounts of the opposite, in fact), but my own experience says that fire arrows and javelins do not count. I haven't gotten that far in the story yet, but my aim is to know for sure in a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarsier182 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I didn't have the flame thrower when it popped (haven't started the DLC's yet), fire arrows are all you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar_Of_Battle Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I know this might sound a bit dumb...but you're sure they're on fire? If I remember right it's not enough to just hit them once or twice. You need to fill up the "on fire" gauge that should appear. Similar to setting enemies on fire it usually takes a couple hits for that gauge to fill up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 So it appears that the flamethrower isn't required to progress the trophy, only trigger the unlock. I unlocked the flamethrower and, after completely upgrading it, the first ship I set ablaze with it unlocked the trophy. I can say with absolute certainty that I set untold numbers of ships on fire with fire arrows and javelins, so it appears that there are enough loopholes in the coding that everyone has a different experience.

PanVikingX Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) So I can confirm for future reference for anyone reading this post, no flamethrower needed. Ships have to be "on fire" not just fire damage. Which means that the white circle had to be around the fire symbol above the ship in order for it to count. You may have to hit them with fire arrows or javelins several times to fully fill that fire symbol to make the white circle appear around the symbol. I completed the trophy before getting the flamethrower so definitely doable without. Edited January 4, 2020 by balambrulers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
