How to unlock the Pyromaniac achievement in Steelrising - Definitive Guide
The best way I found to do this is use flame grenades on enemies. Make sure they actually ignite (catch fire). If you have a weapon that has fire damage you can use that as well but again just make sure the enemy ignites. The flame icon on the enemy health bar will be fully encircled for it to count as an ignition. Do this 100 times. You may need to use multiple grenades to ignite a single enemy.
The trophy is pretty self-explanatory and you have several ways of inflicting the fire status on your enemies.
1.) Weapons with the "invocation of fire" special move or a ranged attack that fire a flame shot.
The earliest you can find a weapon that can inflict fire is in Les Invalides (main story-path to find Mr Vaucanson) and it is called the Fire Chain. In my opinion this is one of the best weapons in the game and does alot of damage if you upgrade it. Just be aware that it'll be a little harder to inflict the fire status with this weapon on bigger Automats (e.g. Hoplites, Rams, Lancers) and Bosses as they have more defenses and will attack you more often causing you to dodge/block/parry which slows the fire build-up. Another weapon you'll find a little later that can infuse the weapon with fire when pressing L2 is the Hephaestus Batons which you'll find in La Cité. However, this is not an ideal weapon to use for those who went for the Bodyguard or Soldier class as the batons are designed for a build with higher Agility to help build up immobilisation and combos faster.
2.) Flame grenades are obviously very good for igniting the Automats on fire, with smaller more basic enemies only needing 1 - 2 to be ignited, and bigger enemies needing anywhere from 3 - 5. Though you can buy more grenades at any Vestal or the Horseless Carriage please be aware that the stock is not unlimited and it will run out if you keep buying them. Flame grenades are a reasonably common drop from enemies/loot in the world, just don't go full pyromaniac with them unless you don't mind running out of them for awhile.
3.) The last method which is alot quicker than using a fire weapon is using the Alchemist's Ram skill during combat. Clicking L1+ will cause Aegis to jump at the enemy your locked onto and do a huge kick at their chest inflicting a decent amount of fire build-up, just make sure you're within medium range of the enemy or it won't work. The one downside to this method is that you won't unlock this skill till a little later in the story when you visit Luxembourg.

It can be easily done using a flail with a burning tip when activated with a special move, light the chain and with several blows make the enemy burn. Also, when activated, the ability hits the area - can be combined with the “ AoE specialist / Area Fire ” trophy.

It’s much easier with the “Fire and Ice” weapon, you just need to improve this weapon so that it immediately inflicts fire and freezing with one counterattack, thus with ordinary counterattacks you can complete 2 achievements at once, capturing Ms Freeze / Snow Queen in addition
