Detonate a trip mine with a thrown enemy. (Single-Player)

How to unlock the Rough Landing achievement in Mass Effect: Andromeda - Definitive Guide

Rough Landing Trophy/Achievement

This achievement is pretty simple but requires 3 specific skills which in return require a skill point each to unlock. These skills include the following:

Trip Mine [Combat Tree]
Throw [Biotic Tree]
Pull [Biotic Tree]

Once unlocked, shoot a Trip Mine onto the ground, then Pull an enemy which will allow you to drag them wherever you wish by holding down the respective trigger assigned (I used a Kett), then aim at the Trip Mine and Throw the enemy at it. If done successfully you will unlock your trophy/achievement.

Edit: You should also be close to the target as pulling an enemy from a distance will not always work. If your misplaced your skills, you can always respec in the Med Bay on the Tempest.

For this achievement you need 3 skills. Purchase and equip all 3 skills and you can start with this achievement.

1) Trip Mine (Combat Skill)
2) Pull (Biotics Skill)
3) Throw (Biotics Skill)

Put the trip mine on the ground, then pull an enemy to you with the pull skill (hold button!) and then throw this enemy into your own trip mine with the throw skill.

This will require the "Trip Mine", "Throw", & "Pull" skills. This can be done at any point; however, the earliest point in the game is on Habitat 7, against the first drop ship enemies in the game. Place a trip mine off to the side. Now, run under the drop ship and wait for an enemy to drop and pull them and then throw them into the trip mine. Make sure your game is on at least normal difficulty so the enemies do not die immediately.

Whilst the other solutions work fine in their own right, they do not mention that the biotic power Pull is not necessary for this achievement. What I did was throwing a tripmine on the ground in front of a kett and then boost past them with cn_B. Then I positioned myself in such a way that I had me, the kett and my tripmine all lined up and used Throw. The tripmine killed the kett upon being triggered and the achievement unlocked.

For the record, my power setup was Cryo Beam (Tech, needed for the Icebreaker achievement), Throw (Biotic) and Trip Mine (Combat).

For this achievement you need Throw and Trip mine unlocked at minimum but having Pull unlocked as well makes things drastically easier.

Simply place a trip mine down in front of you and pull an enemy towards you and then aim towards and down at the trip mine and use throw to send the enemy on its way. As long as he trip mine is detonated, the achievement should unlock.

To do this with Just throw and Trip mine do the same begging step of placing the Trip mine but instead of pulling the enemy towards you, you now have to try and get an enemy in between you and the trip mine ( monkey in the middle). Once that happens use Throw on the enemy and send it into the trip mine.

See the video I made below for a visual of how it is done! Happy hunting!

This trophy can only be earned in single player.

You will need to purchase the Trip Mine (Combat Skill tree), Pull (Biotic Skill tree), and Throw (Biotic Skill tree). You have to set the Trip mine on the ground before you engage the enemy. Hold the Pull button to suspend an enemy beside you in the air, and then aim at the Trip Mine and press the Throw button to fling the enemy towards it. The Trip Mine should explode and unlock this trophy.

This is a fairly easy trophy to unlock. First you need to make sure that you have the following unlocked in the skill tree:

Trip Mine (Combat)
Pull (Biotic)
Throw (Biotic)

Now what you want to do is, throw down a mine somewhere near some enemies. Use Pull to lift an enemy and pull them over to you. Next aim towards the mine you placed and use Throw. It will throw the enemy at the mine, detonating it and unlocking the trophy.

You will need the "Trip Mine" (Combat), "Pull" (Biotic), and "Throw" (Biotic) skills to unlock this achievement. First, place the Trip Mine on the ground, then using the same method as in "Fastball" you will need to pick up and throw and enemy over the mine to detonate it. Must be done in SP.

NOTE: You could technically get this without the "Pull" ability, by simply throwing an enemy directly over the mine. However, it's much easier to control if you pull them first.

If you would like to watch a short video guide, that can be found here.

To obtain it, use the following skills: mine stretch, pull, throw. Place a mine, grab it using thrust (hold down the thrust button) and throw the enemy onto the mine.

Traction is not required, checked. You simply throw a mine behind the enemy’s back, make a throw, and the enemy flies off onto the mine. I did it in a room full of enemies.

I managed without thrust and without throw (they weren’t even in the slots), only with a mine. I killed a flying enemy (soldier), and his corpse fell on a mine - the cup clinked.

To quickly perform, you will need 3 abilities: “ Stretch ” (combat), “ Pull ” and “ Throw ” (biotics).
We place a mine using the Stretch skill. Next we attract the enemy and throw him straight onto the mine. (We attract the enemy without armor and shield.)
