@Ali Alhayki.. You Welcome Bro.... The Best way to do it, is Upgrading the Red Abilities because thats where the fire resistance abilities are at. I'm Glad you Trophy the Game... Now time for the DLC.
This is probably one the better walkthroughs and spots for this trophy that I've seen. I mean I wouldn't reset all my points, as long as you're at 280 or below the enemies will have the skull icon. The sitting on the burning roof and returning the spears of the heavy shield enemies does work effectively and the trophy will pop.
Yeah great walk through, also he had to reset his skill points cause he was level 400, either that or take away like 120 points, I just took away points that I didn’t need got it and reloaded the save easy peasy
Wow got the trophy. Thanks matey. Jumping on the rooftops while on fire shooting them with arrows was the absolute key, otherwise you're going to be spending all your precious time trying to achieve this annoying trophy. I kept accidentally killing them too soon and then it was difficult to find more of these type of guards. Awesome video, video liked
Thank you so much I want to thank you in person you helped me so much you don’t know how many times I play this game for this trophy my last fkin trophy
I've tried several different methods to get this one to pop up for me. Including a variation of what's in the video posted above. The method that finally worked for me is: I powered through the game until I was a 300 power level, then I went to Werham for a quest. Here's what I did when I got there. I busted an oil jar next to a building climbed up on the roof of a building I was standing in front of. Took out, lit and dropped my torch on the roof. Busted a second oil jar by the first building. Annoyed the shield-bearers and for whatever reason, without me even lifting my weapon a second time, they walked into my fire storm and burst into flames. What I find strange is, I only shot arrows at the bearer's feet to annoy them, after that the rest fell into place. But it worked.
Don't usually comment on videos but thought this was a great video so had to! This was one of the last achievements I needed and thought it would be a lot harder! Only took me 5 min on my first try! For anyone having trouble with this achievement/trophy, Just keep finding shield guards to kill. I had to kill 5-6 before it popped up for me and I broke combat a couple of times. Also make sure you have the fire symbol that actually means you're on fire on the bottom left where your health is. Other than that just keep killing until it pops up! Great video by the way! Made it super easy to get! :)
I’ve been doing this for about 3 hours and I have been killing 6 shield man in row while on fire and the game still refuses to give me the achievement. Thanks for making the most buggy game in all of AC.
Fecking thanks man.. I only had 3 achievements left to get in the game. Completionist. Good Catch. Overdesign 2. I spent hours trying to do this so many different ways with no luck. Then I see this. Not only did I do it first time but also in under 3 minutes... what a legend you are !!!!!
Thanks man. Got this trophy (actually got it easy enough using your missile reversal method) thought it would have been a real headache. Also got the 150m snow slide and the boat rage trophies with your help. Got the Viking legend platinum trophy this morning. Much appreciated. Thanks again 👍👍👍
omg THANK THANK YOUU i always watch yoyr videos when i want to platinum a game used you for all the uncharted plats and now this thank you and keep up the good work
This was by far the best way to do it and easy to follow video. I watched two how to and this made the most sense. First time ever purposefully attempting to try this achievement and thanks to this video it didn’t bug and I got it on the first try doing what he showed. Thanks for the help.
THANK YOU. I spent so much time trying to do this with the guards by the gate. At one point it got super buggy and I wasn't staying on fire (after dying and respawning this fixed itself?). I did the rooftop trick and after one shield bearer the trophy popped.
Thanks! Made this a million times easier than other guides. Didn't even remember you could throw projectiles back at 'em, and tried to find a good source for fire and it was in front of me the whole time.
Thanks, I'll try this, really hoping it'll work. I thought I was breaking combat which it looked like you were doing so I guess that's not it, maybe I just need a few more. I'll try get like 6 bearers at once or something on me. Also, there is probably SOMEONE in the world who got this trophy by accident. Let that sink in.
I just tried it. According to me you don't have to be in the same combat. I killed two and died, reloaded previously manually saved game, killed one more and then got the trophy! 😁
THANK YOU so much for this! I got it very easily. I was level 340 and just wiped out a couple chunks of my skills to about 275. Went to the exact spot in the video and just started killing everyone from the burning rooftop. My fire resistance was really good so I basically hung out there for 5 minutes and the trophy popped! Didn't even use the throwback ability - just crushed them with arrows.
Thank you. Got the trophy first time following your guide. I killed 1 shield Bearer in Wincestre and 2 in Werham. Make to sure to manually re-load your new save file with easy mode. The game does it for you automatically when changing modes but exit the game and re-load the new save file.
Actually all you have to do is click on the let fate decide. Then when you get to about 280 back out and you can then remove the one or 2 you need to get under
I killed 5 , 4 , 3 hell even at one point 6 . I was on the damn roof on fire the whole time. What else should i do? I am at the point where i dont think it is worth it really. This trophy proves nothing but your patience against bad designed combat.
@@FurianGaming I managed to do it after a day of tries. I had the red skulls on them but seems the trophy is bugged for some people. I got the platinum but hands down it was the most boring not worthy Plat ever done. Hope you had better luck with yours
I unlocked thoa today. I killed three without breaking combat and killed 2 others in two different encounters in that xamp and got it. Not sure if its delayed or only counts as one since i climbed on a roof and lit them on fire and uses reverse missle
Thank you, Brian! Just got it on my first try. I, too, had to kill FOUR of the shield enemies. I have the PS5 version. Happy holidays to you and yours!
If none of these fixes are helping you get the trophy BUT you know you've definitely met the requirements several times - fast travel to Ravensthorpe and speak with Petra and "Take Her To Bed". Saw this on the Ubisoft support page and worked instantly for me on PS5. Hope this helps someone :)
What I did was equip two weapons no shield ingnore small enemies only focus on deflecting the spears from the big guys once you killed the first guy get off the roof wait for the fire to go out and go back up kill the next guy and do that again for the next guy
I finally got this thank you, literally took a break from getting this achievement and decided to do it again since the dlc came out. Did the same thing he did but idk what happened for me but was able to one shot all three in the head, thank god I’m done with this. I think you can use mastery point because I had like almost 100 mastery point on.
Just done this on second attempt, I only did the smaller shielded guys and it popped.. used predator bow whilst on roof.. platinum done in 104 hours! Thanks 👍🏻
This worked on 2nd try! Thank god! Just lowered my level to about 279 and it took only one or 2 reversals tops. Felt like i broke combat once or twice since after the 2 standard bearers i had to seek another enemy
I can’t see and find a Red Skull enemies in the area why ? My current lvl 416 full tree abd I have mystery points installed but I tried to decrease my lvl down to 260,286,100 and bellow hundred still the Red guys aren’t showing any idea why ? Plus I didn’t finish the story yet and didn’t travel to Vinland so please help
I had a problem I killed 3 elites on fire the trophy didn't pop so I ended up reloading my save and when I killed the next elite whilst on fire I got the trophy I was power level 270
Ok, so I found the trick, gonna save the headache for anyone having trouble. Played for hours and nothing , did this once and got trophy. Kill one of the guards While on fire then make sure fire goes out. Light yourself again kill a guard. Repeat. Have to put out flame after each enemy.
On my second attempt I managed to get this trophy. I put my level up to around 240 so the damage killed in one hit, I usually hit them with an arrow to lower the damage slightly before attempting. Not sure if recent patches had fixed bugs that surrounded this trophy previously. Biggest issue is timing but you get the hang of it quick enough
I killed the guys without properly reading the description. I was not on fire. Now I can’t get the enemies to respond. Is there a way to get the enemies to respond?
This was ace, thanks for this it was buggy, it didn't drop for me first time, but then loaded back up I still had to kill 4 shield bearers but nevertheless the breakdown was great stuff. Many thanks!
4:21 "I have no way to know if I broke this guy's shield..." I mean, it was irrelevant as you ran over and had an option for a stun attack so he wasn't dead yet.
Ive killed over 35 and still no achievement. Standing on a building on fire just throwing back there spears. Tried killing them with arrows and melee attacks . This is bugged and annoying. Ive maxed our the past 2 acs this ones is the worst out of the last 3 .
Same for me: it is the most bugged game I've played in 2020 (I skipped CP2077): on PS4 it crashes every 3 hours, often main line missions were bugged, so I had to load previous working save and lost an hour of progress. I also have bugged two mysteries, so I'm unable to get platinum... Unfortunately bugs spoils a lot of pleasure from this game...
No joke I got this first try in like 3 minutes. Just put the game on easy, do some initial damage, get on the roof set fire and throw back their spears. Was legit one of the easier achievements I’ve done.
Finally got it but it seems as though when throwing the spears back if it then hits a shield even a shield bearers one that can't break that wont count either
Here is a fix if a trophy doesn’t pop: kill 3 in Werham and then go to Fearnhamme, kill 1 there and trophy will unlock. (Be below 250 power, be on fire, treverse missle will work). I waisted 2h doing this, then got the trophy in 5min.
How does level scaling affect this trophy? I’ve already maxed out, and I’ve been on Aesir combat difficulty for a while. That one has the level scaling where enemies are 60 levels above you, I know it’s weird bc there are some enemies that don’t scale.
A little adaptation to this method if you are having trouble. Try just removing skills until you are under skill level 300 (I did 299 just to be safe). Then weaken the shield bearers so that you can kill them with one hit from catching and throwing back their projectiles while being on top of the house that is on fire. Being level 299 made me able to take a few more hits from the enemies.
The one thing many of the other guides fail to mention is lower the difficulty so you don't die just by fire, so thanks for that.
got it first go!
This is the kind of trophy that makes you want to break the game in half. Whyyyyy
Lol 😂😂😂....
I don't chase some of the trophies. Too much trouble.
@Ali Alhaykiis easy.. What's your Power Lvl.?
Your power have to be Lower than the Power from the Area..
@Ali Alhayki.. You Welcome Bro....
The Best way to do it, is Upgrading the Red Abilities because thats where the fire resistance abilities are at.
I'm Glad you Trophy the Game...
Now time for the DLC.
This was far from worst one
This is probably one the better walkthroughs and spots for this trophy that I've seen. I mean I wouldn't reset all my points, as long as you're at 280 or below the enemies will have the skull icon.

I'm at 460 power. To hell with taking points off. They can keep their trophy
Still having issues with this trophie in 2022

Could you fix it?
Fecking thanks man.. I only had 3 achievements left to get in the game. Completionist.
Good Catch.
Overdesign 2.
I spent hours trying to do this so many different ways with no luck. Then I see this. Not only did I do it first time but also in under 3 minutes... what a legend you are !!!!!

I have been following your content since bio shock 360. Your always spot on mate cheers :0)
Your guide was the most helpful. This is the easiest way. I did it in like 30 seconds. Thanks!
THANK YOU so much for this! I got it very easily. I was level 340 and just wiped out a couple chunks of my skills to about 275. Went to the exact spot in the video and just started killing everyone from the burning rooftop. My fire resistance was really good so I basically hung out there for 5 minutes and the trophy popped! Didn't even use the throwback ability - just crushed them with arrows.
I had trouble with this until I reset my skills, went down to 200 and then I was able to get the trophy. Many thanks for the video
Thank you for this guide. I finally managed to get this trophy, probably one of the worst I've ever come across as trophy's go.
I've done this loads of times, no trophy unlock. Its the last one i need
Thank you. Got the trophy first time following your guide. I killed 1 shield Bearer in Wincestre and 2 in Werham. Make to sure to manually re-load your new save file with easy mode. The game does it for you automatically when changing modes but exit the game and re-load the new save file.
I did exactly the same thing and i was on fire all the time and it didn’t work 😡
Same
Thank you my friend as always! This was the last trophy I needed. Just got the Platinum. Total clock time was 183 hours.
You're a beast of a gamer! The only platinum I've ever gotten was Ghost of Tsushima.
damn my only platinum is god of war 4 and im 69% done with the trophies in this game ;)
Its so buggy because enemies keep thinking you’re gone like for a fraction of a second
Thanks man! Got this on my second try! You made it so easy!👍🏻
This platinum is a beast man
Why didn’t I think of this? This is the only way I take care of these guys anyway. Thanks man
The rooftop trick did it for me. Many thanks!
Dude thanks for talking about the power points I thought this was patched. But now I know I have to reset the tree and redo it.
Thanks, this helped me get the final trophy I needed, your video helped a ton
You don't need to totally reset your skill tree you can get rid of individual parts of it to be quicker.
If ur on 400 power level and have to get down to at most 280.. its easier and faster to reset
Actually all you have to do is click on the let fate decide. Then when you get to about 280 back out and you can then remove the one or 2 you need to get under
I killed 5 , 4 , 3 hell even at one point 6 . I was on the damn roof on fire the whole time. What else should i do? I am at the point where i dont think it is worth it really. This trophy proves nothing but your patience against bad designed combat.
Make sure your skills are reset so youre a lower level than the enemy and they show reed skulls next to their name
@@FurianGaming I managed to do it after a day of tries. I had the red skulls on them but seems the trophy is bugged for some people. I got the platinum but hands down it was the most boring not worthy Plat ever done. Hope you had better luck with yours
Omg thank you!! This worked tried so many different videos none worked I believe you're right about the two guards at the gate being bugged.
Yo thank you bro
I upgraded my guy to 150 power level. 2 missile reversals and a couple arrows for each, and they were dead. Thanks a lot for the guide, very helpful!
This is def the best tutorial for this trophy. Pain in the a**, until I saw this and got it within 10 min
Thanks for the guide got it almost four years later 🎉
I unlocked thoa today. I killed three without breaking combat and killed 2 others in two different encounters in that xamp and got it. Not sure if its delayed or only counts as one since i climbed on a roof and lit them on fire and uses reverse missle
Hero! Was trying the ‘other method’ for around 40 minutes. This popped it first time!
Thank you 😊! I got the trophy easy with your guide.
thank you worked wonderfully fine in like 1-2 minutes popped up no problem love commentary cause its works so much better other have failed me so much
Thank you so much man. Worked like charm 😊😊😊😊
Damn this trophy, It wasn’t 3 it was more like 4 or 5 that I had to kill.
Really I been just killing the same three ?
Are you...a god ? Your guides are so good and useful, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you, Brian! Just got it on my first try. I, too, had to kill FOUR of the shield enemies. I have the PS5 version. Happy holidays to you and yours!
Damn i was worried about this trophy, got it first try :)
Been trying for hours. You say you can't break combat but it looks like you do several times
By not breaking combat it just means that you are always in the line of sight to the enemy!!!
If you break line of sight you go incognito and are hidden bro.
took me 10 minutes with this guide, thanks a lot mate I really appreciate ✴️
It was frustrating getting this trophy but when I did I felt like I got the platinum lol.
Thanks man this technique worked tried the other but this was the one that worked
I’ve tried this over and over and it doesn’t work
No works for me... I killed 3 hard soldiers fire during fight And still nothing . Power level 300...
Gotta be below 280 my guy.
If none of these fixes are helping you get the trophy BUT you know you've definitely met the requirements several times - fast travel to Ravensthorpe and speak with Petra and "Take Her To Bed". Saw this on the Ubisoft support page and worked instantly for me on PS5. Hope this helps someone :)

This works, thank you.
wow finally!!!! This is what ended up working for me, removing the fire between the kills. Thanks!
I finally got this thank you, literally took a break from getting this achievement and decided to do it again since the dlc came out.
Did the same thing he did but idk what happened for me but was able to one shot all three in the head, thank god I’m done with this. I think you can use mastery point because I had like almost 100 mastery point on.
Just done this on second attempt, I only did the smaller shielded guys and it popped.. used predator bow whilst on roof.. platinum done in 104 hours! Thanks 👍🏻
Thanks for the vid. Got it on my first try.
This worked on 2nd try! Thank god! Just lowered my level to about 279 and it took only one or 2 reversals tops. Felt like i broke combat once or twice since after the 2 standard bearers i had to seek another enemy
Nice, Well Done, Thanks For Sharing!
It finally worked!!! I could never get the achievement to pop until I watched this
I can’t see and find a Red Skull enemies in the area why ? My current lvl 416 full tree abd I have mystery points installed but I tried to decrease my lvl down to 260,286,100 and bellow hundred still the Red guys aren’t showing any idea why ? Plus I didn’t finish the story yet and didn’t travel to Vinland so please help
how can i restart area. my load game is not working for this
Got it first try! Thanks!
Awesome video as always. Got the trophy on first try!
Got it on the second try, thank you!
Thanks for the guide,trying to get the platinum for this game is a tough challenge
After a few bugged tries I got it. Ty
After several attempts finally got it lol tysm
I just killed 6 of these guys without breaking combat and didn’t get my trophy 😑😭
Dude same I didn’t get it either
I killed 13…NADA
You are a legend my friend! 🙂
got it no problem using your strategy 👍
I tried it this way and got the trophy in like 2 minutes. Thanks :D!
I had a problem I killed 3 elites on fire the trophy didn't pop so I ended up reloading my save and when I killed the next elite whilst on fire I got the trophy I was power level 270
does it count if you die and kill the 4 guy or will you have to start over
Ok, so I found the trick, gonna save the headache for anyone having trouble. Played for hours and nothing , did this once and got trophy. Kill one of the guards
While on fire then make sure fire goes out. Light yourself again kill a guard. Repeat. Have to put out flame after each enemy.
It worked !!!! Thx dude !!!
Thanks for your technique. I got it the first time, it was the last trophy i needed 🏆
Thank you! FINALLY got it!
On my second attempt I managed to get this trophy. I put my level up to around 240 so the damage killed in one hit, I usually hit them with an arrow to lower the damage slightly before attempting. Not sure if recent patches had fixed bugs that surrounded this trophy previously. Biggest issue is timing but you get the hang of it quick enough
Thanks for this bro. What a nightmare of a trophy though!
I'm a bit late to the party with this game but thanks. Got it first time. I was sure this was going to be a ball ache of a trophy.
Thanks for your video
Thank you for this video, it took me over half an hour of trying in this area but finally got it done 👍
I killed the guys without properly reading the description. I was not on fire. Now I can’t get the enemies to respond. Is there a way to get the enemies to respond?
Any particular armor I should be wearing?
This was ace, thanks for this it was buggy, it didn't drop for me first time, but then loaded back up I still had to kill 4 shield bearers but nevertheless the breakdown was great stuff. Many thanks!
4:21 "I have no way to know if I broke this guy's shield..." I mean, it was irrelevant as you ran over and had an option for a stun attack so he wasn't dead yet.
Ive killed over 35 and still no achievement. Standing on a building on fire just throwing back there spears. Tried killing them with arrows and melee attacks . This is bugged and annoying. Ive maxed our the past 2 acs this ones is the worst out of the last 3 .
I’m having the same problem, could you let me know if you manage get it?
Same for me: it is the most bugged game I've played in 2020 (I skipped CP2077): on PS4 it crashes every 3 hours, often main line missions were bugged, so I had to load previous working save and lost an hour of progress. I also have bugged two mysteries, so I'm unable to get platinum... Unfortunately bugs spoils a lot of pleasure from this game...
No joke I got this first try in like 3 minutes. Just put the game on easy, do some initial damage, get on the roof set fire and throw back their spears. Was legit one of the easier achievements I’ve done.
Did this first try thanks to your method. Thankfully the trophy wasn't buggy for me.
I will never understand the need for trophies like this.
Finally got it but it seems as though when throwing the spears back if it then hits a shield even a shield bearers one that can't break that wont count either
Here is a fix if a trophy doesn’t pop: kill 3 in Werham and then go to Fearnhamme, kill 1 there and trophy will unlock. (Be below 250 power, be on fire, treverse missle will work). I waisted 2h doing this, then got the trophy in 5min.
Thank you very much
Fast travel or horseback ?
I just Plat the game after reading this and trying it, it worked.... lol i tried the video, didn't pop went killed one dude and magic....thanks dude
Glad it works for you guys :)
Did you fast travel or ride
How does level scaling affect this trophy? I’ve already maxed out, and I’ve been on Aesir combat difficulty for a while. That one has the level scaling where enemies are 60 levels above you, I know it’s weird bc there are some enemies that don’t scale.
thanks its been doing my head in done it 1st time
this trophy is very buggy, it didnt even pop. But i got :) thanks mate
Brooo thank you sm... This is probably the best video dedicated to this stupid ass trophy fr
A little adaptation to this method if you are having trouble. Try just removing skills until you are under skill level 300 (I did 299 just to be safe). Then weaken the shield bearers so that you can kill them with one hit from catching and throwing back their projectiles while being on top of the house that is on fire. Being level 299 made me able to take a few more hits from the enemies.
