How to unlock the Baller achievement in Peggle 2 - Definitive Guide

First unlock Gnormon as a playable character. Once unlocked choose level 10 under the Peggle Institute levels. Choose Gnorman, what you will be looking for is a green circle peg (unarmored) in the middle of the armored pegs. (reload level until they spawn there) You must hit the green peg without destroying any of the block pegs under the armor. ( better if first ball also lands in bucket but not needed). Now that you have Gnormans special choose a side to power slide down. This will destroy most of the orange pegs on the level and give you the maximum amount of balls. (also better if you power slide down the side that has a green peg under armor if spawned) This will leave you with one more Gnorman special shot which should be shot how you see fit to eliminate the rest of the orange pegs,

Finished with 15 balls and took a couple of tries but it was a very easy way to get the achievement.

This guide isn't about Ryse: Son of Rome at all

EDIT: I'm in the wrong forums, good guide 3/5 for the misleading bit about the orange pegs

worked for me after 4 or 5 attempts, the video is spot on in the method just takes a little luck with orange placement as said in the video really unless you are getting a 3 ball 75k bonus on the 1st shot with a green power then restart,

Thanks worked after about 4 tries, as others have said the green/orange peg placement is important, if you can get them like the video then it works like a charm, ended up with 14 balls

Took me about 20 minutes of trying. Got pretty lucky in that my first ball hit the bucket, and second ball just clipped the end of the opposite slide to earn that one extra ball. Still had to clear out three more orange pegs, but I've gotten pretty good at sniping (grazing the edge of a peg so it clears it and the ball is deflected only slightly, pretty easy to aim for the bucket). I'd say the guide is perfect for describing *what* you have to do, without laying out all the perfect placement required by luck of the draw to make it successful.

I beat the level with 13 balls left and still didn't get the achievement. When I look at my achievement list, it says that I have it 100% done but still shows the achievement as locked. Anyone know a solution for this problem?

Nice guide and video - Worked like a charm on 2nd try. Had to reload once to get 1 easy green and ended with exactly 12. There is definitely some luck and repetition involved, but this is one of the best levels to get this achievement.

Not to be insulting, but I don't see how you are getting 15 balls. I'm following the guide exactly and I'm getting 11 at most. And when inside down the other side I'm lucky to get one. I've tried about 25 times at this point.

Well, I finally got it. But let me say that I required a lot more requirements to be fulfilled before I managed to do it.

1) One of the greens MUST be on one of the sides (unless you get really lucky and the ball moves into when it is located elsewhere)
2) The side with the green MUST be stacked with orange
3) The side with a ton of orange and the one green MUST have a purple near the end of it (once again, unless you get really lucky and the ball moves into it)

Then and only then was I able to get this achievement.

Unlock Gnorman as a character and go to the 7th level of the 1st world:

'Happy Happy Hedges', in the 'Peggle Institute'.

Follow the video guide below. Note that it may require some restarting to ensure you get the right pegs where you want them (such as a purple peg and a green peg somewhere where you'll hit it on your first shot).

Other than that, stick with the same formula and you'll get there with a little trial and error. Took me 5 tries.

Thanks, got it on my first try unlike the one on level 10 where everyone said they'd have 15 balls after one shot but where i'd get 11. Finished with 13.

If you have the Jimmy Lightning Master Pack DLC then the first level in there is good for getting this achievement.

One of the level challenges is for finishing with 10 balls so it's pretty much set up for this by default. When I unlocked it I had 14 balls after the first shot and 2 orange pegs to clear up. I guess you need a little bit of luck but it seemed fairly easy for me.

EDIT : This was done using the new Peggle master Jimmy.

Good luck smile

Thank you! Easiest way, took me two tries. I did try multiple other times on the other solutions with no success. Like said above, make sure to have at least one green on the top ramp, and your golden.

Spent two hours trying for the other solutions, finally getting it with a different level, then a week later came back to do the DLC and finished the first level with 10 balls, getting this idea, retrying, and finishing with 12 on the second try, then saw you'd already said this.

This seems like the easiest level to do it on by far.

Best solution indeed. I wasted a lot of time on the other solutions and was not even close. This one worked at the 3rd try. 15 balls left. Thanks!

As long as you get one green brick in the top ramp, it's almost impossible not to get it. Then you can just aim for the oranges that are left since that's all you need to 'finish' the level. Its easier if you're able to get the greens in separate shots so each green can earn you 3 free balls but with the randomness of the first 3 you'll usually hit it.

For those that don't know you get extra balls in peggle by getting 25000, 75000 and 125000 points in a single shot (not counting style points) and by landing the ball in the bucket. Meaning it is possible to increase your ball count by +3 in a single shot.
You lose 1 for taking the shot, gain 3 for scoring over 125000 points and gain 1 for landing the ball in the bucket.

Therefore the easiest way to get this achievement is to clear the orange pegs as fast as possible while scoring high.

I recommend using gnorman on the 2nd level of the 2nd world, I just completed this in 3 shots myself. Try to hit green without destroying too many many pegs, then your 2nd shot should clear most of the pegs and award you with some extra balls. Provided you hit a green on this shot as well (or two on your first) the 3rd shot should clear most of the rest of the orange pegsand award you some more balls.

You can maintain the number of balls you have by hitting one peg at a time and rebounding into the bucket if you get above 12 balls and have only a few pegs left, if required.

Due to random peg placement there cannot be a surefire way and getting this achievement but the method i have suggested should give most people a chance provided they get a bit of luck

This is "one of those" you'll get with the right info, a plan, skill and ahem yes a small bit of luck. I just got this on Peggle institute level 6 using Gorman.

The video is recorded by me using the Xbox one dvr.

The easiest way to get this is on Peggle Institute level 10. Use Gnorman as master and restart the level until the green pegs spawn the middle of the circle! Here`s a video guide for this trophy, it took me around 8 tries still... Good luck

I must really suck then. I tried this for over an hour with no luck. I just couldn't get enough points on my first electric slide to get 3 free balls (+ bucket), or I'll break too many on the right and can't slide it so end up screwed. Annoyed me enough that I gave up, I'll come back to it later!

This one took me about 40 minutes to do, but that's because I was finishing the level after I knew I couldn't get the trophy(going for 10k blues and 5k reds still.) Not a hard trophy to get using this video.

Hello folks,i tried Maka solution but it relies on luck mostly,if you have the jimmy dlc then it's super easy on the first level cause one of the objectives is to win with 10 balls left. In other terms the level is designed to give you the trophy ; )

Takes a few attempts, but I got it really easy using on the first Jimmy level. Keep restarting until you have a green at the top then just fire it off. You should always get the full extra balls from points alone then more from the balls going into the bucket. After that its just about picking off the last few oranges.

At the end of the day its a luck thing but this gives you a good shot at getting a good layout after that first green.

This trophy you will most likely have to try and get as it will not come naturally but it isn't too difficult. I did this in the Winter Blunderland, when I used Berg's ability which slides the pegs into one another to get a combo resulting in me getting a lot of free balls. Alternatively if you're skilful you can always try and complete the level by getting a lot of bucket free balls (where you fire the ball and it lands in the bucket), although you start levels with 10 balls so you would still have to get 2 free ones. There are several other methods to get this trophy, for instance the first level of the Windy DLC is an easy one to do this as here ability gives you more points to gain free balls and Jimmy is always handy for free balls if his multiballs fall into the bucket.

For another method please use this video by PS4Trophies Wozamil:

The easiest way to do this is with DLC characters, the butterfly bird and the beaver, since their abilities contribute to the accumulation of balls; if you don’t want to buy it, you can try making it an electric grandfather, it’s all the same!
