How to unlock the Maloof Street Slayer achievement in Skate 3 - Definitive Guide
Seem to be the main sticking point on the final challenge.
If, when you set up to do the gap, you set a marker, get 3 pushes in, then pump UP the the ramp (it CAN be done!) if you feel like you're going to fall short of the full gap, throw in a Foot Plant for the extra couple of feet.
I attempted this once, and managed to hit it spot on, my initial leap over the gap seemed like I saw JUST going to miss the gap, but the Foot Plant took me that extra distance . . .
Hope this helps in some way . . . :-)
This OTL consists of 6 challenges;
Maloof NY Accumulation - Reach the Target Score of 12,000 to Win this Challenge. Again get you multiplier going and keep the combo's coming.
Bank To The Future:
- Bank to Grind the Ledge
- Bank to Grind to the End of the Ledge
- Grind the Manny Pad into the Bank
From where you Start hit the bank and ollie onto the Ledge. Once you've hit the grind, ollie off back into the bank and make sure you keep your speed for the second bank as you need to grind the whole length of it. You can start from half way on the ledge, so just pump down the bank, line up hit the bank and land from your ollie half way onto the ledge and grind the rest of the way, just make sure you ollie from the Blue Arrows or it wont count! Once you come off the end of the second ledge just line yourself up with the manny pad, grind the edge and you're done!
Pathway Bush Gaps - Air over the Bushes. Just ollie over the 4 bushes that are presented in front of you. Get good speed, ollie well and this should be a breeze.
Tailblunter - Nose, Tail or Bluntslide the Ledges. Again another simple challenge. All you have to do is do the specific grind on any other ledges around the park. Once one ledge has been grinded on you cannot grind on it again, so move onto the next one.
Maloof Manual Madness - Nose Manual to Manual Across the Pad. Simply ollie onto the pad, land in a nose manual, quickly ollie out and into a standard manual and off the edge you go. Be aware that Reverts dont count! I did a 180 and then landed into the manual and it still counted even though it looks like a you're doing a nose. If it doesnt work for you try this as some people have had a little trouble with this challenge.
The Maloof NY List is revealed in this order:
- 1,000pt Grind
- 1,000pt Gap off the Side Edge
- Grind Around the Bank
- Footplant a Hubba
- Grind over the Grate
- Do a Darkslide
- Hit 3 Rails without Bailing
- Do a Bluntslide
- Step Up the Bottom Hubba
- Gap the Central Manny Pad
Maloof NY Accumulation - You'll need to get 12000 points in 3 minutes in and around the globe. This isn't too bad providing you get a x3 multiplier quickly by doing tricks and you do tweaks, no foots or even backflips if you're good enough. Don't repeat the same trick as you'll get less points each time for it.
Bank to the Future - This isn't too bad. You'll need to grind 3 different ledges in as many minutes. You don't need to do them all in one go. The trickiest one is the second as you need to grind to the end and it's quite long. As long as you get a good speed and a stable grind (such as the board being parallel with the ledge) you should make it.
Pathway Bush Gaps - Easy. Just get the timing good enough and you should gap each one with ease. Again you don't need to do all at once and you can slightly pass through the bushes and get away with it.
Tailblunter - This is one of the trickier ones, you'll need to do a tail, nose or blunt slide on 3 of the marked ledges. Your best bets are tail or nose slides, where you need to grind using just either end of the board. You'll need to move your board 90 degrees in mid-air to do this correctly. There's also a way to 'cheat' this, stand right by a ledge with the board in your hand, jump () and get on in mid-air, you may end up grinding this way.
Maloof Manual Madness - This can also be a bit tricky. What you'll need to do is jump on the pad directly into a nose manual (lightly press ) then transition into a normal manual (lightly press ) then trick off at the end. You won't make it if you go too fast, I suggest only pushing twice on the run up.
Maloof NY List - This one is the main event. You have 5 minutes to do 10 things on a list. Only four show up at once, when you do one another one unlocks and so on. Below is a list of what you need to do with tips:
- 1000pt Grind - Do this with the one below. Go to the Maloof Edge OTS place and grind that ledge to the end and gap off, if you get 1k points + that's two birds with one stone. Try to get a multiplier beforehand to make it easier.
- 1000pt Gap Off the Side Edge - See above
- Grind Around the Bank - Easy, directly to the left of the start point.
- Footplant a Hubba - Just after the bank above, Ollie onto the Hubba and hold + to footplant it, might take two or so goes.
- Grind Over the Grate -The grate is right at the bottom, this is easy enough.
- Do a Darkslide - Darksliding requires you to hold while flipping onto a grind so the board is upside down. You'll need to trick off again to avoid crashing, easier on rails.
- Hit 3 Rails without Bailing - This needs to be done without bailing once, even if it's on something else inbetween. You can get off your board manually though. Go to the spawn marker and grind the rail in front. Get off, climb the stairs and grind the other rail down. Lastly turn right and grind the rail nearby.
- Do a Bluntslide - This one is the make or break here, as it's the only one where luck is involved. See the in-game trick list to see what this looks like. You may get this randomly jumping on rails if you're lucky. You can sort of cheat this similar to the method for 'Tailblunter', as if you're lucky you'll do a noseblunt instead of a nose grind.
- Step Up the Bottom Hubba - This isn't too bad, it just needs a little bit of speed and good timing but if you jump too early you won't make it, too late and you'll crash.
- Gap the Central Manny Pad - This one can be a little tricky at first. Start at the pad you footplanted, go down the ramp nearby then down the one to the right of the gap you needed to do. This should give you enough speed to do the gap. If you are close, you can also give yourself a boost by footplanting near the end.
