How to unlock the Punch It achievement in STAR WARS: Squadrons - Definitive Guide

This achievement is a missable achievement unlocked in the final mission of the game.

Spoilers

At the end of the mission after the Star Hawk crashes into the destabilized moon you have to outrun the explosion through an asteroid field, following behind your flight leader.

Simply shift all power to engines and throttle all the way up through the asteroid field and caverns. The achievement should unlock on the mission complete screen.

Note - if you're having trouble maneuvering in the tight spaces try using a Y Wing or a ship with an enhancement with a negative impact on top speed. This should allow you to be at full throttle without going incredibly fast.

Its for max speed so hitting the boost would make sense to me. Im just about to try it for the first time though. Ill let you know if I get it.

Alright, I got it. Wasn't too bad. took me a few tries to get my rhythm down with it. I held up on the left stick the entire time. I did not let go. I also did not take damage. And I did use boost. Although I dont think boost matters though I cant confirm. I think you just have to hold up the entire time so you maintain the normal maximum speed. if you take damage it will slow you down and by my guess void the achievement since you are no longer going max speed. Luckily its not a super long run.

Don't drink and fly. Because you will eat rocks. Not a hard achievement, you just have to concentrate and don't drink like I should of done.

Good advice on both the Y wing and sobriety. Tried it 4 times while in my cups - couldn't do it. First try while sober. Mind the debris.

I set it to engines (left on d-pad) and went at top speed ) left thumb stick UP ) all the way in an x-wing and this did not pop.

Does it have to have left stick pressed in (L3) ? .. because this will only last a few seconds....... keep on pressing L3 repeatedly?

I did it with a y-wing, and pressed the L3 in every few seconds and the achievo did pop.

So, either i made a slight gaff in the x-wing, or maybe you need to be pressing L3 for short bursts of speed now and then.

Yeah a Y Wing helps immensely, you don’t have to boost or hold the throttle up the whole time, just switch all power to engines and make sure it’s all the way up. I also put my tracker on Spoilers- LJ, that helped too. It still took about 5 or 6 times to get the rhythm. The trickiest part is squeezing through the small gap, you have to roll to align yourself and aim just right, the debris around the Star Destroyer can mess you up too. Also stick to small adjustments to the controls, big ones and you’re liable to run into something which kills your speed.

I did this using an a-wing equipped with the engine that increases maneuverability. You dont need to boost at all, simply keep the throttle pressed in for the duration of the escape sequence.

This can take a few attempts, the goal is to follow the leader and escape without slowing down. Please note boosting is not required for this trophy. I used the Y wing for this as it’s slower top speed gave more time to react. at the start put all power to engines (if the game hasn’t done it for you) and throttle all the way up. The trickiest parts are soon after the start where you have to roll your fighter and squeeze through a small gap, soon after you need to dodge debris from a Star Destroyer. Follow the leader and small adjustments the rest of the way.

Task 14. One of the medals. You can reset the save to plus (I didn’t check the flash drive). Set the arrow to full throttle and analogue up. The trophy opens on the statistics screen.

You need to set full throttle and use acceleration. The main thing is not to slow down throughout the escape and not crash. We crashed, return to CT. Initially, you accelerate and rush headlong, otherwise you won’t be counted.
