How to unlock the A Hail of Arrows achievement in Trine 2 - Definitive Guide

You can actually get this achievement on the title screen if you want, where it says "Press Start". Wait a few seconds and it will zoom out, you can run around and switch characters.

Switch to the Thief and use the right stick. You want to shoot an arrow medium-high upwards, then two arrows low (just tap the right stick up basically). Now quickly press Right Bumper to switch to the Knight, and immediately hold up on the right stick to bring your shield up. If you do it quick enough, and the arrows are in a tight cluster, you'll get the achievement. It might take a few tries, but it's pretty easy.

I don't know if it is, but the title screen seems like the easiest place to get this. Spent a while in game failing at it, and got it 2nd of third time on the title screen. 200/200G now, Thanks.

I waited for a long time, and it never zoomed out...i could see a person, but could never run around or switch characters...do you have to start the game first?

You can just do this in game with one controller an no obstacles above you easily. Just keep at it and it pops in no time. I got it after trying for 1 minute.

I did this on Shadowed Halls.

Near the end of the level you'll get to a section with two portals; one horizontal on the lower level, which can be moved, and one vertical on the upper level. Make sure that the lower portal is positioned under the gap in the upper platform. Jump through the lower portal and then head to the rightmost side of the upper level. Switch to the Thief, shoot three arrows through the upper portal and then switch to the Knight. The arrows will come out of the lower portal straight up and then go back down again and come back out at the top. Then you should be able to easily catch them with your shield.

Second part of this video shows a easy technique for this achievement. Switch to the Thief: Fire 3 arrows straight up, one high, one medium, one low then switch to the Knight and catch them all quickly by holding the shield up. The way I did this might be harder was to shoot all arrows straight up high then switch and catch them all. *Video credits to MafiaMonkeyz*

I'm afraid this is far, far harder on a 360 than on your PC, so this video is less than useful. The fact that on the 360 you aim *and* release with the right thumb stick, meaning it's virtually impossible to get all 3 (or sometimes even 2) of the arrows to go directly *up*... well, you can see the problem

I use xbox 360. I tested the video technique and it was easier then using max velocity on all 3, which took me around an hour to do. Just keep at it and try aim at the same place.

lol I just played a bit of this on 2 player with a friend, apparently the problem isn't the solution... it's the fact that I need a new controller :P sorry about that lol

I found this easier to do with two controllers use the knight on the controller you want to get the achievement and jam the analogue forward to use the shield and on the second controller use the thief. Stand in the same spot as the knight and spam arrows upwards, only needs to be a low trajectory it'll eventually pop.

If you are playing solo... switch to the Knight and make sure his shield and sword are active. Switch then to the Thief. Aim a near-full strength arrow straight up and let it fly. Do the same with a medium-strength arrow and a low-strength arrow. While the arrows are in the air, switch to the Knight and hold your shield above you. You must catch all three arrows and the trophy will pop.

If you are playing co-op... Have one person as the Knight stand with their shield up. Have the other one or two people stand next to them as Thieves and just keep launching low-strength arrows at the Knight's shield. Keep doing it and eventually the trophy will pop.

Co-Op Note: Each person in your co-op game will need to catch arrows as the Knight to earn this trophy.

For the trophy you will need a partner and a 2nd joystick.
Take and turn on the 2nd joystick, use it to control the “Thief” and turn on the double arrows.
And in open space, we shoot weakly, without interruption, into the sky.
And on the 1st joystick we select “Knight” and raise the shield up and move in different directions.
While the arrows are falling, we try to catch them with a shield until you get the trophy.

You can get this trophy alone, without the help of a partner. We take the thief, shoot three arrows up and suddenly switch to the knight, and of course we catch her. Video guide .

It’s much easier to do the second method if the thief has level 2 ice arrows, she shoots two arrows at once, it’s very easy to do.

The easiest way I could think of. Performed by two joeys.

On the second joey, select a knight, raise the shield up with the right stick and fix the stick so that the knight holds the shield up all the time (I fixed it with a paper clip like this:


Next, choose the Thief as the first joey and stand not far from the knight (it is advisable to stand higher than the knight, for example like this:


Next, continuously and weakly shoot from a bow at the shield until you receive .

Similar to the previous one, it is done at the beginning with the inscription Press start, Shoot up 3 times and switch to the knight. You haven’t even started playing yet and already have 2 trophies
