How to unlock the Firebug achievement in Mafia II - Definitive Guide

***Boosting Solution***

This solution is for people who want to get the "destroy 100 vehicles" and don't want to just "play the game."

After the second mission where you have to destroy the cars you will spawn across the street by the docks. There is a string of cars parked under the highway. Shoot all the gas tanks you can before the cops take you down. You will respawn at the same location and just rinse and repeat.

If you find this solution helpful please remember to vote positive. Thank you....

if u dont want cops on you, another good spot is in the parking lot behind the oyster bay apartment. 2 cars spawn, shoot the tanks, go inside save..come back out and they are respawned.

Man I don't remember the name of the mission, it's been over a year ago since I've played the game. Can someone else help him out with this. If I remember correctly I know it's one of the first missions you play where you have to go blow up a couple cars right down by the dock.

What I did and what everyone should do ( also nets you the Millionaire achievement more easily ) is this:

On most missions you always have time left after you're done, now before ending the missions by pressing X at the mission marker just blow up cars you see parked and driving around by shooting the gas tank. This way you're boosting up the multiplier thus gaining more points, you'll grab this achievement very early in the game this way so no need for grinding.

Easy does it !

This Solution guides you not only to work on this particular Xbox Achievement, but on two more during the effort. I suggest you shall go for this once you have achieved 100% completion in Jimmy’s Vendetta.

Please view my created relative video first: http://YouTu.be/ccADmT5xBpg

Getting armed: Purchase Grenade Mk.IIs from either Harry's or Giuseppe's Gun Shop. While Harry's place is around the top left of the map, Giuseppe's is a bit to the right of the center on the map.

Now you can get ready to learn about the destination: On the top center of the map, you will recognize a B-icon in a blue circle - it is for Bruski's Scrapyard. Only a bit below from there, is the Mission, Sound and Furry, if unlocked by you. It is the Mission you shall play when going for these Xbox Achievements for Mafia II in Jimmy’s Vendetta:
-Faster than Light (very simple to do that way/comes naturally)
-Firebug (very simple to do that way/comes naturally)
-Massacre (very efficient method)
-Explorer (you might just achieve 1% of the task, when you are always using a car to drive these few meters only every run - but there is no reason for not doing it - besides, perhaps you want more cars around a zone where you destroy everything, like me!)

I would say, the process is going down pretty fast - I doubt that there is a greater method than this. If you think so too, please vote positively on both: Solution; Video.

I have found an even better solution before you start the second mission go to the two special gun shops and pick up grenades and flaming cocktails. Then start the second mission go threw it but do not use any of the cocktails and grenades. Once the mission is over diver out to the street and start throwing grenades under cars. It takes two cocktails if you give it a minute to burn, once out grenades press start and load last checkpoint when it loads up you will still have all the cars that you blew up and all the cocktails and grenades will be back to full as well just repeat process until you get it. Just know that if you go out to the main menu you lose it all.

This will also take a while to accomplish but can be done by either using Grenades and Molotovs or more economically by shooting their gas tanks.

The easiest places to blow up are trucks, fuel tankers, and pickups. The first two have a large tank, and it is located at the bottom - it is clearly visible. There is a pickup tank between the cabin and the beginning of the platform (in the form of a pipe pipe). If you “hunt” them in the city, it will be long and dangerous (the police will not stop). Therefore, you need to go to the industrial complex in North Millwill, in the west of the city. There are a lot of trucks, fuel tankers and pickups, but no people or police. We drive around the complex in a circle and blow up the transport with shots. We blew it up in one place, we move on. While we are going to explode in other places, new trucks and fuel tankers will appear in the previous ones. In general, from one to four vehicles are found in one place.

It is better to perform this technique after passing, if a sufficient number of vehicles have not yet been blown up.

You don't have to look only for trucks. Any car, left rear fender. A couple of bullets and the car flies into the air. The best hunting spot is the parking lot on the way to the observatory; there is also a mission point nearby that can be used as a Save.

Easily farmed in the penultimate mission at the docks. There are three fuel tankers at the entrance, we blow them up and restart them, and so on until we get the trophy.
