How to unlock the Loop Master achievement in Wik Fable of Souls - Definitive Guide
This one isn't too tricky once you know the basic technique. Go up to the top platform then aim down at 45 degrees and jump. As you are falling, latch on to the lowest post furthest away from the platform your started on. The 45 degree aim should cause you to fall just below it, i.e. the latch point is above you. Once latched on continue to rotate the stick (if you jumped from the top left then you will be rotating counter clockwise) and you should be able to get in several rotations. The bonus points reduce if you keep doing the same action so you will need to release yourself again and hopefully latch on to another post.
You get good points if you can get your next rotation to go around the opposite direction. To do this you will need to release yourself almost vertically and attempt to re-latch back onto the same post you were on (or a lower one). You will of course need to rotate the stick in the opposite direction when this happens.
As soon as you realise that you aren't going to get any more loops then move back over to the lift as soon as possible. It helps to try and swing there rather than hop along the ground as it will save you time.
Here's a video showing what to do. It's not amazing, but there aren't that many available:

I made a guide too now but might remove it if you add what I say here.
I struggled so bad when I tried this because what is not said in your guide is that if you press down on the d-pad when trying to grab the next you can continue with full speed like in your video. (I think it was the d-pad to grab in the direction you want to grab things).
I just could not do what you did until I figured that out. So when you have a good spin after the first grab and fly to the next one press down when aiming for the next one and you will find it more easy to continue a spin in full speed and get at least 3 lopes doing this.
I got the achievement after about 2 hours. Took me 90 minutes before I figured this out.

This achievement is glitched. I got this from this topic http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=11.... Wanted to give proper credit to pedle zelnip as well as datwundude (on the xbox forums) but I'll post how I got it as well (as it's a little different).
To start with, we need to play the game without any patches. To do this:
1. Turn on your 360 & sign in
2. Unplug your network cable (if it's plugged in)
3. Go to the system blade and select memory
4. On the Hard Drive, hit Y
5. Now press X-X-RB-LB-X-X, and you will be asked if you want to do maintenance. Select yes, and all patches will be removed from the hard drive. THIS WILL IN NO WAY HARM ANY GAMESAVES OR ACHIEVEMENTS IT IS COMPLETELY SAFE. The only downside is that patches for all other games will have to be redownloaded the next time you play them.
Now, don't plug in your network cable, but start up Wik. Now to do the achievement (this is exactly what the original writer did, but the glitch seems somewhat unpredictable):
1. Go to Single Player, Bonus Levels, Loopnastics.
2. Start a game, and do your best but fall short of the 60 needed (score at enough points to avoid the "You seem to be having problems with Loopnastics screen")
3. Now on the leaderboard screen, hit "B" to go to the bonus menu
4. Select Loopnastics
5. Watch the last demo (Aerial Bonus - 4 Points) by selecting it and pressing X
6. Press A to replay the level again.
7. At the leaderboard, hit B for bonus menu again and this time watch the Top Ring Bonus - 3 Points tutorial
8. Press A to replay the level.
9. Press A to replay the level again (that is DO NOT watch a tutorial after this match)
10. Press A to replay the level one last time
11. Hit B for bonus menu, and watch the Stutter Bonus - 2 Point tutorial
After the demo completes you should get the achievement (or at least I did).
This is mine as I just did this after clearing the cache go to Single Player, Bonus Levels, Loopnastics.
1. Start a game but fall short of the 60 needed (score at enough points to avoid the "You seem to be having problems with Loopnastics screen") I got about 13-15 a round then waited the rest of the time.
2. Now on the leaderboard screen, hit "B" to go to the bonus menu
3. Select Loopnastics
4. Watch the last demo (Aerial Bonus - 4 Points) by selecting it and pressing X
5. Press A to replay the level again.
6. and again
7. At the leaderboard, hit B for bonus menu again and this time watch the Top Ring Bonus - 3 Points tutorial
and it popped right here and I didn't get 60 combined points though with the tutorials it would've been around 50-55 if the game was combining them (which I think it does).
yeah, I'm expecting about 40 negatives since it's not my original guide but this solution wasn't here and I gave credit so...

tired of getting negatives for solutions that work 100%. Why should I bother if nobody can follow directions?

What I did was similar to the other solution. First, you should take the lift up and then jump downwards towards the lowest dreamcatcher that is farthest away from you. Then, if you get a good swing on it, keep making loops on that one dreamcatcher until you are making a big circle. Then, release "B" when you are going in the direction of another dreamcatcher and quickly latch on to another dreamcatcher when you are flying and make another couple loops then repeat with other dreamcatchers and you should get loop level 4 each time. I managed to get 106 score this way and I feel like I could get even more. Sorry if this isn't a good enough description, if anyone asks me to, I would gladly make a video.
P.S. Doing the loop master achievement this way may get you the Acrobatic Master achievement as well. Remember "Loop-release-Loop-release-Loop.

Follow the solution from Mr Fiddlers video but aim for the top dream catcher. It is a three point bonus, if you can manage to release and relatch it is huge. At the beginning what I did was jump from the left side to the bottom right, build up speed hit the top, got some speed, dropped to the middle got some more speed then back up to the top. Four dream catcher sequence really gave me a huge bonus. Also, keep swinging for your loop bonuses until the reach zero then move on.
Patience is a virtue you will need to obtain this achievement. Watch the demo, and take note of bonus points. You will also need to be able to string loops. Its hard with the time limit, and if you can't see yourself getting it with the time remaining, just restart. Go for big points right off the bat to relieve pressure.
