How to unlock the No More Playing With Fire achievement in The Evil Within 2 - Definitive Guide

No More Playing With Fire Achievement Guide

For this you'll want to be aiming at the fuel canister on Liam's back, the way I did it was using the Explosive Bolts.

However, another good tactic is to use the Smoke Bolt, which will stun Liam for a certain amount of time, depending which Smoke Bolt upgrade you have. I tried this after I unlocked this achievement and it seems easier with the Smoke Bolts.

Hope this was helpful.

Is this glitchy? Done it 3 times on Nightmares difficulty, no pop.

Just pull out the Sniper and attack the canister on Liams Back on Easy difficulty 3-4 Shots from the Sniper and the Achievement is yours

German Video but I think you will get the point :)

In the boss fight at the end of chapter 11, you need to explode the fuel tank on his back to get this achievement. I tried the explosive bolt method and the smoke bolt/sniper rifle method mentioned by other guides, but neither was working very well for me. My explosive bolts are one short of max upgrade, and while they were effective to very rapidly get me into the second phase of this fight (took about 3 bolts I think), they didn't seem to be doing enough damage to the tank. I also tried the smoke bolt method, but as soon as you fire one shot he "sees" you again, so I found it too hard to do much damage to the tank that way either.

What DID finally work for me was using shock bolts instead, as recommended in the walkthrough. Shock bolts + shotgun. He flails around too much to be able to aim well with the sniper rifle, but while he's stunned you can run right up behind him and get off 2-3 shotgun blasts to the tank. Depending on your upgrades, repeating this two or three times should explode the tank. Spent multiple hours trying and failing with the other methods, but I popped the achievement on my second try with this method.

During the boss fight against
, shoot the flamethrower pack on his back until it explodes. Handgun, shotgun or sniper rifle bullets will do the trick.

Be warned, this boss becomes extremely aggressive when this happens and the fight becomes a lot harder so I'd recommend reloading the checkpoint after the trophy pops.

This achievement must be obtained while fighting the Harbinger boss at the end of chapter 11. You must destroy the Flamethrower the boss is using. To do this, stun the Harbinger by using some freeze or shock bolts from the Warden Crossbow. Once the boss is stunned, use one of your Shotguns or the Sniper Rifle to shoot at the tank on the Harbinger’s back. Once you’ve done enough damage to the tank, it will explode, the Harbinger will no longer be able to use his Flamethrower, and you’ll unlock the achievement.

End of Chapter 11, flamethrower boss fight. To get the trophy, you need to shoot at the boss at the balloon that is located behind his back. We shoot until the balloon explodes.

At the Nightmare difficulty level, it is better to kill him using stealth. It will take about 6 stabs in the back.
If you shoot him, all the cartridges will be gone, and in the second phase, after the explosion of the flamethrower cylinder, he also begins to run quickly and hit at point-blank range (sometimes he will one-shot).

Tactics: sit down at any table, preferably not a large one so that you can quickly get around it, lure the boss and wait for him to lose sight of you (start to walk slowly), approach from behind and stab him in the back. You can ambush if you leveled up this skill in the stealth branch.

The advice above does not allow you to get the trophy. It is imperative to rupture the boss's balloon and only then kill him. Simple murder does not count towards this trophy.
