How to unlock the Detonator achievement in Sniper Elite V2 - Definitive Guide

Another way of getting this done, At the beginning of the 4th mission, the mueseum.

You look at the guard standing smoking a cigarette right in front of you in the little path and shoot his grenade, then look all the way at the end of the road and you will see an explosive barrell, shoot that as well. Rinse and repeat 25 times and BAM you got your achievement :)

I found it faster to just shoot the grenade guy and then restart instead of trying to get more kills using the other explosives. Wrapped up the 20 kills I needed in like 10 minutes

This is a little old, but still worthy of a minor edit if people want to do it quicker.

Use the method provided. One grenade + barrel. But then use the other method too - drop your dynamite, shoot it. Drop your land mine, shoot it. Same with the trip mine.

Just saved me a few restarts by doing that.

This achievement not only counts environmental explosives, but also the ones you put down. If you were to drop a trip mine and shoot it, it'll count towards this achievement.

For this you need to shoot 50 environmental explosives. This includes grenades on enemies belts, gas tanks, missiles and even your own explosives. If you lay down a trip mine, land mine or dynamite and then shoot it, that will count towards this trophy.

You should be able to get this in the course of a playthrough. If you haven't, keep playing the Prologue and at the end of the level (where you are hiding behind a low wall and there are a few scattered enemies below you) you can see a few missiles and gas tanks you can shoot. You should be able to get 6-8 explosive shots each time you play that last bit.

This trophy is for simply shooting 50 explosives. The resulting explosions do not need to kill an enemy. Explosives include Mines, Trip Mines, Dynamite, Explosive Barrels, Vehicle Fuel Tanks, Grenades on enemies' waists etc. This is also a very easy trophy to farm should you need to do so. Simply place all of your Dynamite and Mines in a row (far enough apart so they don't set each other off once shot) and step back. Shoot them all one by one, restart the checkpoint and repeat.

Just take a lot of dynamite with you at the beginning of the mission, then shoot at it + get the Potato Masher trophy

A little bit of a misleading hint, stupidly shooting at explosives counts towards this trophy, you can collect mines and dynamite from corpses during missions, then lay it out and shoot it, but this shooting does not count towards the Potato Masher trophy.

Let me add that shooting at barrels also counts

I'll add. Shooting red shells is also protected.

I got it very easily and quickly at the very beginning of the 5th mission " Opernplatz "

After the start of the mission, we do not touch the first three enemies, and quietly turn into the alley on the right. There we go into the house, a checkpoint appears and a new task appears. We see a gas cylinder and a Fritz idly staggering around it. We reload the checkpoint - we find ourselves in front of the entrance to the building. We approach the window in front of the door and immediately see a soldier standing near the gas cylinder, we shoot! Reload the checkpoint the required number of times. By this time, the trophy was about half completed; here I farmed the rest in 2-3 minutes.
