How to unlock the Fire on Water achievement in Assassin's Creed Odyssey - Definitive Guide
Now simply set 10 enemy ships on fire with the flamethrower (face the camera towards the front of your ship without holding L2 and hold R2) and after the 10th ship is lit, you will unlock the trophy. It's not enough to just get the flamethrower on it -- the fire icon gauge needs to fill up and put the ship in an "on fire" state that limits its movement and firing capacity.
It's worth noting that you will have to destroy several ships in the course of the main quest anyway, for example in the mission "Persian Puppetry".
To unlock this achievement you need to set 10 enemy ships on fire. You can do this either with the fire upgrade for the Adrestia from the base game, or you can use the new Chimera's Breath weapon that you gain access to during the quest 'Leviathan's Maw'. To be sure you set a ship on fire, look at the flaming symbol that appears when you use fire attacks and you can see the red circle fill and then the white outline will flash. When it fills the ship will be set on fire. 1 fire attack is usually not enough and sustained fire is needed.
You will likely not encounter 10 ships during the main quest so after completing it, get into your ship and look for enemy ships to attack, then set them on fire as you see fit until you have set 10 on fire for this achievement.
This is exactly where ships should be set on fire. This weapon is located on the bow of the ship. Choose any ship and go to ram. After ramming the enemy, hold down R2 . This is where sea frying begins. To be sure that the ship was set on fire, I waited until the fire symbol was in the white circle (I don’t know whether I should wait that long or not, but I played it safe).
It is necessary that a fire icon appears above the ship.
