How to unlock the Blade That Was Broken achievement in The Lord of the Rings: Conquest - Definitive Guide

I have found the best way to unlock this Achievement is to play the Helm's Deep level in The War of the Ring (single player or multiplayer). After killing the Torchbearers, you are sent to defend a bridge into the fortress. Play as the warrior (obviously) and run straight past the area you are supposed to be defending towards the lower end of the bridge. There should be a large group of enemies (mostly grunts, with some archers) making their way up. Get right next to the mob, and spam your LB+Y attack until your fire bar runs out. You should have a hit count of at least 25, so just use normal attacks to finish it off in the unlikely circumstance of your original blitz not earning you the achievement.

This can be gotten in the single player.

An easy way to get this achievement is to spam the Fire Strike attack (LB+X) several times into a large group of enemies.

The Fire Strike attack covers a lot of ground quickly so the enemies being spaced apart a little bit isn't as much of a concern. It is also capable of multi-hitting an enemy. Also, each hit on any enemy adds to the combo meter, whether it be multiple hits on a single enemy or hitting several enemies with 1 attack.

The location in ChainReaction01's solution is an excellent spot, but you should spam the (LB+X) attack rather than the (LB+Y) attack.

As for the solution of my own, if you don't get the achievement in the location above, you should very easily be able to obtain it any time near the end of the level while playing as Aragorn. You are told to capture two areas and then defend another. The first area seems to have more enemies than the second for some reason, but the ending defending point has just swarms.

Anyways, perform the (LB+B) attack two or three times and you should get the achievement.

The combo counter is the number in the top left corner of the screen. At every hit the combo counter will go up with 1. Easily performed by holding (L1) and pressing (Square). This takes an amount of energy so try to kill some enemies when in need of energy.

*Best done at Helm’s Deep level, when you need to defend the gate. This is where there’s a stair down and catapults flying all over the place. Head down the stairs and do (L1 + Square) (energy must be full) over and over again and you should get over 30 hits in the matter of seconds. You can also do this trophy on a ballista or the tower in Pelennor Fields. Just hit it until you hit the 30.

The hit counter is the number in the upper left corner of the screen. After each successful hit it will increase by one. It's easier to lift it while holding it press . Performing this strike will require energy; to obtain energy, kill enemies.
Easiest to get in Helm's Deep when you need to defend a gate. Go down the stairs and click + (the energy must be completely filled), repeat until the hit counter reaches thirty and you get the trophy.
