Pinball FX3

In order to receive this trophy you must complete all 5 main Asgard missions. Once you have beaten the 5th mission the trophy will pop. The 5 missions and how to start them are detailed below.

Tip: I would try them from hardest to easiest in order to go for this trophy. This is because you could play for an hour completing the easier missions only to fail when you get to the hard ones; thus frustrating you and wasting a lot of time. Try the hard ones first if you fail or lose your balls, then you can just restart the game until you complete the hard ones on ball or two then go for the easy ones you know you can do.

To start a main mission:
You must first hit the hit the URU targets 3 times (once for each letter). The URU targets are at the top middle of the playfield. After shooting the targets 3 times the Asgard mission hole will be available. Shoot the ball into that hole and the ball will begin to travel up the Rainbow Bridge and you will be able to cycle through the missions with your flipper buttons. Press to select the mission you would like to try.

Before you begin, I recommend knowing how to do the Lightning Strike Combo:
It’s important that you learn the Lightning Strike Combo because it helps you complete most of the missions and the Wizard Mode. One shot can end up counting as two or three different orbit/ramp shots. To make full use of this combo you must hit the ball up the Loki Ramp then press this will cause the ball to drop down in front of the upper left flipper. You then need to hit the ball into the Ymir mini orbit then immediately press this will cause the ball to be shot up the cross ramp automatically.

Now let's get started on defending Asgard! Here are the missions listed from easiest to hardest:

Mission 1: Brothers Duel

This mission requires you to defeat Loki. You and Loki both have 7 health points (HP) as shown by the DMD (Dot-Matrix Display). You need to hit 7 ramps, lanes, orbits to hit Loki and take his HP to 0 but if you hit Loki's attack ramps then Thor will be hit.

Shots you should take to attack and hit Loki:

• Left Orbit
• Right Surtur sink hole
• Ymir Mini-Orbit
• Destroyer Ramp
• Asgard Ramp

Shots you should avoid that attack and hit Thor:

• Loki Ramp
• Right Orbit

Once you have hit 7 of the ramps which attack Loki you complete the mission and the Brother’s Duel light will light up on the playfield.

Mission 2: The Destroyer

This mission requires you to deflect the Destroyers beam back at him. You will see a % meter on the DMD of the beams power. It starts at 50% and if it reaches 100% you fail the mission. Your goal is to get the power down to 0%. Each bumper hit brings it down by 1% while the lock hole brings it down by 5-10%.

To bring the power down hit any of these:

• Surtur Mini-Orbit
• Right Surtur/volcano sink hole
• Right Orbit

I have found that the easiest/safest way to bring the power down to 0% is to make the ball hit the bumpers. The right orbit is one of the safest shots you can use to complete this mission as it takes the ball to the bumpers with low risk. However, hitting the sink hole will be the quickest way to beat this mission as it will only take a couple of shots. Once it reaches 0% the mission is complete and the Destroyer light will light up on the playfield.

Mission 3: Ymir's Attack

Ymir's attack is much like the Brothers Duel mission you will notice that Ymir has 7 HP shown on the DMD. Shoot 7 randomly lit ramps/lanes to attack and damage Ymir. However, you will take damage in timed intervals when Ymir blows his ice breath at you. If your health goes down to 0 you will fail the mission. However, you can recover your health by shooting the ball up the Loki Ramp (right green ramp where the word SERPENT is). You will gain some health back for each successful shot up that ramp. Once you have hit a lit ramp 7 times the mission is complete and Ymir’s Attack light will be lit on the main playfield.

Mission 4: The Destroyer In Asgard

This mission requires you to defeat the Destroyer before he destroys Asgard. You and the Destroyer both have 3 HP (see DMD), you are given about 1 minute to take 1 HP off the Destroyer, if you fail to hit all the targets within that time limit you get a HP taken away from you. If you hit the Destroyer; or the Destroyer hits you, the timer will reset and you'll get another whole minute for the next hit. If you are reduced to 0 HPs then you will fail the mission. To take HP away from the Destroyer you must shoot the ball through 3 different targets. They are in this order:

• 1. Destroyer Ramp (where the word armor is)
• 2. Ymir Mini-Orbit (hit it with the upper left flipper cross shot)
• 3. Right Surtur sink hole (volcano)

Tip: To easily make the first two shots use the Lightning Strike Combo detailed earlier in this guide.

Mission 5: Ymir Rages Again
You must hit Ymir 3 times before your health reaches 0. You take damage every time Ymir blows his ice breath at you, which occurs at timed intervals.

Step 1: Remove the ice
You will notice that the Asgard Ramp & Loki Ramp have a block of ice at their entrance. This blocks the ball from going up these ramps which are needed to attack Ymir. To remove these you need to shoot the ball into either the left or right Surtur sink hole (the volcanoes). This will turn the ball into a fire ball. After you successfully create a fire ball you then have about 30 seconds to hit the ice blocks in front of the Asgard Ramp and/or the Loki Ramp you will need to hit each block of ice twice to melt it or smash it away. If you fail to remove the ice within that 30 second time limit, then you will need to relight the fireball by hitting either the left or right Surtur sink hole again.

Step 2: Shoot both ramps to hit Ymir
Once you have managed to remove the ice from those ramps, you then need to shoot the ball up the ramps to hit Ymir. Once you do that you will remove one HP from Ymir.

Step 3: Repeat steps 1 & 2 twice more
Do this a further 2 times and the mission will be completed and the Ymir Rages Again light will be lit on the main playfield.
