How to unlock the Blockbuster achievement in Trove - Definitive Guide

The sad part is no matter how you complete this achievement, it is incredibly time consuming.

That being said, I believe the fastest way to get this achievement is using the Boomerang class. The Boomerang class's RB ability is to drop a bomb. Used correctly, this bomb can get you 250~ blocks every time.

First, dig straight down until you are very deep in the ground. Drop a bomb and throw a boomerang. Every time you throw a boomerang it reduces your cooldown time. Then, switch to build mode and dig straight forward like 3 depth. Throw your boomerang a second time and you'll have your bomb back. Rinse and repeat.

With this technique, you only have to repeat roughly 4000 times. It will take you around 9-12 hours of doing it repeatedly.

You can speed this method up vastly by using the bomb ability at the top corners of the holes your bombs make, since the bomb blows up everything above it it's still destroying 250 blocks at a time and saves you from constantly digging tunnels. The Chronomancer Qubesly ally also reduces cooldown times by 25% but is quite expensive, there are several allies much cheaper or as rewards that give 10% too.

You can also get this quickly with the Primordial Flame Dragon, which has a much faster rate of fire (you can literally just hold down cn_RT while flying for constant fireballs). This requires you getting a Diamond Dragon Egg from an Empowered Gem Box. I'm not sure how rare they actually are (I got 2 in a row after buying a Gem Box pack, which was annoying at the time because I really wanted Empowered Gems).
You'll also need 400 Dragon Coins, 4000 Fire Gem Dust, and 100K Flux to craft the Dragon.

I’ve just hit the 1M destroyed and my achievement isn’t unlocking. Any ideas and how to fix it? Before if you went to the achievements in your profile that would cause it to unlock but that’s currently not working for me.

My upvote includes the comments, the Primordial Fire dragon and it's fast firing really helps this.

Up to 900,000 now, not really focusing on it since I still have other time consuming achievements that will take another 50+ hours.

Fortras is another great Dragon for destroying blocks. You have to repeatedly press it, but it destroys more blocks at once. I also use this Dragon to get to Dungeon bosses quickly. He shoots straight down instead of forward so it's easier to aim.

Throwing your boomerang as a boomeranger does not reset your cooldown anymore and it has been that way for a while, however every 3rd arrow you shoot will reduce cooldown, so I just use a dragon instead between cooldowns.

It's account bound and you can keep track of your progress either by the leaderboards for blocks destroyed or by checking your gameplay badges that you can accumulate.

If you have a mount that can shoot while flying then you can shoot with cn_RT while you are gliding, and each fireball will destroy about 10-40 blocks. This easily adds up and if you're gliding around anyway you might as well just tap the button lol. (The only mount I have found that can shoot is the beta dragon that you get for buying any of the real money packs, like the 5$ starting pack. I'm sure any of the mature dragon mounts can, but that's the only one I have currently.)

Any type of block will count toward this. Regular green ones in the starting zones, Infinium Ore, etc. Lasermancy is the main stat that affects how quickly you break down blocks, so if you want to work on farming for this achievement, get some gear that will buff it. If you're a Patron (paid subscription), you get +50% to this stat, which will make this go much faster.

The best type of block for this I've found to be the ice blocks in the Permafrost zones (light grey on the map) or glass blocks in the Neon zones. Both of these blocks basically break the second your beam touches them, so you can rack up a ton quickly. You need to be in Build mode to break down blocks with your laser, so hit the back button whenever you need a specific type of ore/block, or just if you want to break some as you walk from one dungeon to another.

If you have a flying mount, most of these will shoot fireballs as you fly (with ). Doing so will break the ground and give 15-20 blocks each time. You'll be flying from dungeon to dungeon often, so spam those fireballs while you go to whittle away at this.

The best option for farming this by far though is using bombs. To save some time and materials, make sure you unlock the Boomeranger class and use the bombs while running around the world adventuring. All this destruction will chip away at the achievement. If you're specifically working on the achievement, dig straight down before using the bomb for maximum effect, then tunnel forward and repeat (this way there are blocks on all sides rather than just below you if you used it on the surface).

If you go for platinum, then sooner or later you will have a dragon shooting fireballs.
The plan of action is this: we take this very dragon, put on the gear for a large number of jumps, jump higher and start spamming R2 . At the same time, you can mind your own business...

We buy 2600 Big bombs in the marketplace or craft them ourselves. Then we go to the Hub and create anarchy with caution
