How to unlock the Master Fletcher achievement in Rise of the Tomb Raider - Definitive Guide

The first special arrow you will get are Poison Arrows. You will learn to make them in the Siberian Wilderness. They are required to beat a certain enemy to progress through the level and are therefore unmissable. The resources you need to make Poison Arrows are Arrows, Cloth and Mushrooms.

Next you will get Fire Arrows. You learn to make them in Geothermal Valley while lighting the signal tower. These are also required to progress through the level and are therefore unmissable. The resources you need to make Fire Arrows are Arrows, Cloth and Oil.

Lastly you will get Grenade Arrows. You learn to make them in The Acropolis while finding a way to clear a barricade. Once again these are required to progress through the level and are therefore unmissable. The resources you need to make Grenade Arrows are Arrows, Cloth and Magnesite Ore.

To select the special arrow type you want press up on the D-pad to select the bow then continue pressing up to cycle between the three arrow types. Now just hold the right bumper to craft the arrows.

Mushrooms and Magnesite Ore are mainly found in caves and tunnels. Mushrooms can also be found in some tree stumps. Oil is found in yellow cans scattered around the map usually in buildings or near machinery. Oil can also be found in caves in small pools that look a bit like campfires. Cloth can be found in crates and Survival Caches and also on the bodies of human enemies. All of these will be highlighted in Survival Instincts.

If you don’t use the bow much I would suggest crafting all 25 of each type as soon as you get them to keep track of what you still need. Craft as many as you can then, once they are full, fire them all and keep crafting. Once you are done just select Reload Checkpoint and you will have all your resources back but will keep the achievement progress. This also works if you run out of resources. Just Reload Checkpoint and keep crafting. Just stay still so you don’t accidentally trigger an autosave.

This carries across game saves and game modes (campaign, score attack, chapter replay, etc.), so if you're going to play the game for awhile, you'll get it organically, without having to grind it.

In order to do this you must have first progressed enough into the game that you have unlocked the arrow types of Fire, Grenade and Poison.

Simply have the type of arrow selected that you want to create and hold the RB button to craft. You need to keep looting as you go to make sure you have the materials to allow you to craft. Just use your RS vision all the time to spot loot around the levels.

You need to create 25 of each arrow type. This will happen with natural progression as long as you mix up the arrows you are using as you play.

Hi fellow TombRaiders
This is incredibly simple and will come with natural progression. You craft standard arrows by holding down (just) R1, whilst in game. To change/cycle through the arrow type from standard to either of the special ones (for the Trophy) you just push up on the D-pad, whilst in game to cycle through them. Obviously you need the requisite components to craft the arrows, you will get these by collecting the various weapon cache and minerals in caves ect littered all over the game world.
Each time you do this, simply press the R1 to craft the currently equipped special arrow and rinse, repeat until Trophy pops.

Don't forget you do NOT start with all arrow types.

👌👍

Lara can craft arrows at any time, without needing to be at a base camp, provided that she has sufficient resources to do so. While a bow is armed, holding down  will craft regular arrows, while  will craft special arrows, of whichever type is currently armed. You can cycle between special arrow types with multiple presses of .

If you make regular use of special arrows during your main playthrough (which will make Survivor difficulty much easier!), this may well come naturally, but if not, it shouldn't take long to grind this achievement out in free-roam. As Lara can only carry a limited number of each type of arrow (with the limit depending on what equipment upgrades you've crafted), you'll need to shoot a few after each crafting to make space for more. As special arrows are crafted in groups of three, if you're within three arrows of maximum capacity, shoot a few away before crafting more or you'll waste resources.

To craft special arrow types, you need certain resources but you will unlock all 3 arrow types automatically as part of the story. The crating materials are as follows:

Poison:

  • Normal Arrows
  • Cloth
  • Mushrooms (found in caves)


Fire:

  • Normal Arrows
  • Cloth
  • Oil (gathered from oil cans)


Grenade:

  • Normal Arrows
  • Cloth
  • Magnesite (found in caves)


The process is simple. Shoot off 3 arrows, then press to select an arrow type and craft it by holding . It will craft 3 arrows each time (so to get 25 you must repeat this 9 times for each arrow type). You don't have to be at a campfire for this. Arrows can be crafted anywhere at any time.
