If you see any part of this guide replicated elsewhere on the Internet without due credit, please contact me via PM by clicking here. Thank you.*

 

Worms 2: Armageddon is a turn-based 2D strategy game whereby the objective is to eliminate all of the enemy worms before they eliminate you. In order to achieve this, you have a wide range of weaponry at your disposal, ranging from the fearsomely powerful to the downright comical.

 

ROAD MAP:

 

- Estimated Platinum Difficulty: 7/10 (My personal view)

- Approximate Time To Platinum: 25-30 hours

- Offline: (B) 7 (S) 2 (G) 2

- Online: (B) 3 (S) 7 (G) 5

- Missable Trophies: None

- Minimum Number of Playthroughs Required: 1

- Difficulty Affects Trophies: No

- Glitched Trophies: "Mine Gott!" "Mine All Mine!"

- Cheats: None

 

The approximate time to Platinum was calculated using the following timeframes:

 

- 4 Hours for the Campaign.

- 20 Hours for the Online Trophies (this may vary depending on how lucky you are with weapon pickups and how many matches you win.)

- 1 Hour to collect any other trophies that you may have missed.

 

These times are based on not boosting. If you boost any of the online trophies, then it may take less time.

 

As you can see, the Mine Gott! and Mine All Mine! trophies have been listed as glitched, as the trophy descriptions are incorrect and meeting these criteria will not award you with these trophies. However, rest assured that they CAN be obtained - please refer to the "Mine All Mine!" trophy description for more information.

 

The road to Platinum can be broken down into three steps:

 

STEP ONE – COMPLETE THE TUTORIALS AND CAMPAIGN: Before you start the campaign, you may wish to create a team and then complete the tutorials in order to obtain two trophies in a fairly short space of time. Afterwards, you can begin the campaign, where your main aim will be completing it for the Going Solo trophy. You may unlock some additional trophies along the way, particularly Six Pest and Collateral Damage which can both be earned on Mission 30. It's likely that you'll also earn Any Way Up for dealing 69 damage to an enemy worm at some point during the campaign as well.

 

The campaign is split into two sections – Deathmatches and Puzzles. Deathmatches are simply matches against the AI which get increasingly harder as you progress through. Puzzles on the other hand, are a little different – the main objective here will be to reach a certain location using what little weaponry you have, usually within a set time limit. After you have completed Mission 30, you'll also have enough cash to obtain the Martyn's Missus trophy as well, so by all means go for this too. Remember that you'll need to buy the final 5 missions in the shop for 100 cash each. See the trophy descriptions for more information.

 

After this step, you should obtain the following trophies:

 

(B) Name and Fame

(B) Teacher's Pet

(B) Any Way Up

(B) Six Pest

(G) Collateral Damage

(B) Martyn's Missus

(G) Going Solo

 

 

STEP TWO – OBTAIN THE ONLINE TROPHIES: This step will be the most difficult to complete, and the vast majority of your time will be spent here. Please refer to the "Online Trophies" section of the guide for information and advice on obtaining these trophies. If you are having a hard time trying to get any of these trophies, we have a Boosting Thread which can be found here: Worms 2: Armageddon Boosting Thread

 

The online trophies are as follows:

 

(B) Drop Your Load

(B) Happy Shopper

(B) Six Dollar Worm

(S) Mine Gott!

(S) Get Your Lob On

(S) In Your Own Time

(S) Cheeky Flocker

(S) Wind Assisted

(S) Dead-Eye Dick

(S) Mine's A Drink

(G) Mine All Mine!

(G) Ranked Master

(G) One Good Turn...

(G) Armageddon Good At This!

(G) Donkey Dodger

 

STEP THREE – CLEAN-UP: In this step, you should focus on any trophies that did not come naturally during the first two steps. It is very likely that you would have obtained some of these already, especially if you have completed the online trophies. If not, then simply refer to the trophy descriptions for a more detailed insight.

 

These trophies include:

 

(B) Prod For Victory

(B) I'll Try Anything Once

(S) Oldest Swinger In Town

(S) Fire Starter

 

And finally...

 

(P) Worms Elite

TROPHY GUIDE:

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/01.jpg Worms Elite (P)

Easy, just unlock all the other trophies!

 

Like all Platinums, this will be awarded once you obtain your last trophy.

 

OFFLINE TROPHIES:

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/02.jpg Any Way Up (B)

Cause 69 damage to an enemy worm.

 

This trophy is tricky and a degree of luck is required to obtain it. I would suggest using either a Sheep and detonating it just before it touches the enemy worm, or planting a Dynamite. These weapons can cause up to 75 damage, but more often than not, tend to inflict between 65-70 damage. Be patient - this trophy will come eventually.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/03.jpg Six Pest (B)

Kill 6 enemy worms in a single turn.

 

This trophy can be achieved in Mission 30 of the Campaign. When you near the end of the mission, you will [spoiler=346239]obtain the "Armageddon" weapon which will wipe out all six enemy worms when you use it.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/04.jpg Prod For Victory (B)

Win a game by using the Prod.

 

This trophy does not specify that it needs to be done in a Ranked Match, so you can try for this in the campaign, as it will be a lot easier. Remember, that you must kill the last enemy worm by using Prod and no other weapon. Try to push the enemy worm into the water, as that is an instant death. It is so far unconfirmed whether prodding a worm into a mine will work, so I would recommend you try for the water just to be sure. It has been confirmed by Switchy that this trophy can also be obtained in Local Multiplayer.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/05.jpg I'll Try Anything Once (B)

Use every weapon and utility in the game once.

 

There are a lot of weapons and utilities in the game, but this trophy will come over time, especially if you play through the Campaign. However, you can speed things up by entering Firing Range 1, as you'll have access to all weapons and utilities there.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/09.jpg Martyn's Missus (B)

Spend more than 2000 cash unlocking items in the shop.

 

In order to earn enough cash for this trophy, you'll have to progress through the Campaign and complete Mission 30 first. Enter the Shop from the Main Menu and buy everything possible.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/10.jpg Teacher's Pet (B)

Complete all tutorials.

 

After creating your team, a notification will appear on screen asking if you wish to try the Tutorial. If for whatever reason you didn't try it at this time, you may access it via the Single Player Menu.

 

You'll have to complete 3 Tutorials in order to obtain this trophy:

 

1) Basic Tips and Weapon Usage - The first tutorial will take you through the basic elements of the game - moving, jumping and weapon usage.

 

2) Utility Usage and Crate Types - You'll learn how to use the Ninja Rope and Jet Pack in this one. The game will also take you through the three crate types in the game - Weapon, Utility and Health.

 

3) Basic Deathmatch - Your newly-learnt skills will be put to the test here and you'll have to face the AI in a Deathmatch and win. You will have plenty of weapons in your arsenal, so this shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

 

After you’ve finished these tutorials, you will be rewarded with the trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/11.jpg Name and Fame (B)

Name a team and choose hats, speech-banks, gravestones, and victory dances for them.

 

This will likely be the first trophy that you get. As soon as the game starts, you'll be prompted to create a Team. Remember to use :l1: and :r1: to scroll between the different options and make sure you set each one.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/16.jpg Oldest Swinger In Town (S)

Use the Ninja Rope 1000 times.

 

Again, this trophy will come over time. The definition of "using" the Ninja Rope is firing the first shot of it. This does NOT need to be done in a Ranked Match (though if it is used in these matches, it will count,) so if you’re looking to speed this up, you can simply enter the Firing Range and use the rope there - you'll have an unlimited number of them. SandeProElite has suggested the following tip for maximum efficiency:

 

The fastest way to get this trophy in 5 minutes is to enter the Firing Range, drill a hole and keep spamming :cross: Reason you want to drill a hole is because the next rope shot will fire to the opposite direction always, so when there's a wall at both sides it's easy and fast to get the trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/18.jpg Fire Starter (S)

Use the fire weapons 200 times

 

The definition of a "fire weapon" is one that emits fire when used, therefore Napalm Strike and Petrol Bomb are your only options here. This trophy will come over time, but if you wish to obtain it quicker, then you can enter the Firing Range and try there as you'll have unlimited ammo.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/21.jpg Going Solo (G)

Complete the Single Player Campaign

 

There are a total of 35 missions that must be completed for this trophy (the last 5 of which must be purchased from the In-Game Shop.) The campaign consists of two sections - Deathmatches and Puzzles. As previously mentioned in the Road Map, the Deathmatches are simply matches against the AI which get progressively harder throughout.

 

Remember to think strategically when facing the AI, especially towards the end of the Campaign - don't leave your worm out in the open, use cover to your advantage and don't use all of the powerful weapons straight away, as you never know when you may need them in an emergency to tip the tide of battle. From around Mission 20 onwards, the AI start to become much more accurate and you begin to be massively outnumbered, so these missions may take a few tries, and will definitely require tactical thinking.

 

If you start well protected in cover, try and stay there if possible and use the Blowtorch to dig your way around. When you dig all the way through and emerge from your tunnel, don't leave it behind. Take shots at the enemy and retreat to the safety of your underground network. Failure to retreat to cover will result in an early death, especially during the later missions. Water will be vital here, so make it your main aim to kill as many enemies as possible in this way - it'll save you a lot of ammo which can be used for those worms which cannot be knocked into the sea.

 

The other section of the Campaign is a range of Puzzles which require you to reach the end location using the limited weapons in your Inventory, sometimes under a Time Limit. Tips on how to complete these Puzzles can be found here: http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/worms-2-armageddon/186482-worms-2-armageddon-puzzle-tips.html

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/23.jpg Collateral Damage (G)

Inflict more than 150 damage on a single enemy worm by detonating at least one barrel.

 

This trophy can be achieved in Mission 30 of the Campaign. As with the "Six Pest" trophy, there's an extremely high chance that you'll get it at the end of the mission. [spoiler=67349]Using the "Armageddon" weapon will cause massive damage to the enemy worms and will detonate the explosive barrels that they are standing next to.

 

 

ONLINE TROPHIES:

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/06.jpg Drop Your Load (B)

Kill a worm in a Ranked Match by dropping a weapon from the Jet Pack or Ninja Rope.

 

The easiest way to get this trophy is to use a Jet Pack and drop a Dynamite. Select the Jet Pack from your Inventory, and press :cross: to activate it. Use the Analog Stick to navigate around the map and press :square: to drop the Dynamite. Make sure that the enemy worm has under 50 health and you drop it exactly on him just be sure of a kill, and remember to retreat to a safe distance after dropping it!

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/07.jpg Happy Shopper (B)

Collect more than 10 Weapon Crates in a single Ranked Match.

 

Considering that this trophy requires you to play a Ranked Match in order to achieve, there’s only really one game mode that you can try this in - Crazy Crates. This mode has a lot of crate drops each turn and is your best chance at getting this trophy. The easiest type of map to get this on would have to be an underground one - you’ll be able to attach your Ninja Rope to the ceiling and navigate around the majority of the map. The Jet Pack will also work for this, so by all means, feel free to use that as well. You do not have to collect the crates all in the same turn or with the same worm.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/08.jpg Six Dollar Worm (B)

We can rebuild him! Collect 6 Health Crates with one worm during a Ranked Match

 

This does not need to be done in one turn, but must be done with the same worm. If the worm dies, then you'll have to start over with another one, so make sure that it is suitably protected after you have collected a few crates. I would recommend a similar strategy as mentioned in "Happy Shopper" for this one. An underground map on Crazy Crates is your best bet for this - remember that Ninja Rope is your friend here. Make sure that the round progresses a little before going for this, as there will be many more crates on the field, thus making it a little easier.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/12.jpg Mine Gott! (S)

Detonate at least 3 Mines during one turn in a Ranked Match.

 

This trophy is glitched, but can be obtained. Please see the "Mine All Mine!" description for more information.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/13.jpg Get Your Lob On (S)

Win any Playstation Network game using just the Grenade.

 

You must ONLY use the Grenade to damage the enemy in order to obtain this trophy, however you CAN use some Utilities. However, I would recommend that you use nothing else just to be sure. I found that the best mode to try this on is Pro - there's no Jet Packs and only 2 Ninja Ropes available in the Inventory, which means that the enemy will not be able to move around the map as much. Remember that you can also change the fuse on Grenades to anything between 1-5 seconds by pressing :triangle: to suit certain situations. A useful tip I can offer is that Grenades can also be used as cheap dynamite - you can set the fuse to 5 seconds and drop it by an enemy worm. However, I'd only recommend this if you're in a sticky situation, otherwise you'll be left wide open for attack by the enemy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/14.jpg In Your Own Time (S)

Win a Ranked Match by being the last surviving worm not killed by the rising water in Sudden Death.

 

This trophy is a little tricky, as most matches end before Sudden Death. The water will begin rising after the 15 minute (20 minutes in Fort) match time has expired, so make sure that you get to high ground when this happens. Ninja Rope, Jet Pack and Teleport will be your friends here - however, remember that you need to only have one worm left. You can kill the enemy worm during Sudden Death and still obtain this trophy. If you're looking to bring on Sudden Death, I would recommend you play a game of Fort. This mode is a real battle of attrition, as you'll only have a select few weapons which can deal damage at long range, so the match will take a fairly long time. You'll also have to use your Blowtorch to dig through your Fort, which will also make it harder for the enemy worms to hit you. During Sudden Death, all worm's health will be reduced to 1, therefore anything can kill. If you have an Airstrike or Homing missile saved up and the enemy worm is out in the open, then by all means use it.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/15.jpg Cheeky Flocker (S)

Deploy 25 Sheep in any ranked games.

 

This is cumulative and does not need to be done in a single match. This will come over time, so be patient. You will have a Sheep in your Inventory at the start of each Ranked Match, so if you’re looking to speed things up, make sure that you always use it.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/17.jpg Wind Assisted (S)

Win a Ranked Match using only the Bazooka.

 

You must ONLY use the Bazooka to damage the enemy in order to obtain this trophy, however you CAN use some Utilities. However, as previously stated, I would recommend that you use nothing else just to be sure. I found that the best mode to try this on is Pro - there's no Jet Packs and only 2 Ninja Ropes available in the Inventory, which means that the enemy will not be able to move around the map as much. Remember to take note of the wind direction and the position that you plan to hit when firing - landing a Bazooka to the left of a worm will send it flying over to the right, and vice versa. This is especially useful if an enemy worm is near some water. The environment is also important - make note of any explosive barrels and mines and try to use these to your advantage. An "above ground" map is recommended for this, as there will be no ceiling blocking your Bazooka.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/19.jpg Dead-Eye Dick (S)

Inflict maximum damage on an enemy worm with a weapon during a Ranked Match.

 

The description for this trophy is a little misleading, as it makes it sound harder than it actually is. "Maximum Damage" refers to the highest amount of damage that a weapon can do (Dynamite - 75, Bazooka - 50, Fire Punch - 30, etc.) I got this in the very first online match that I played by using the Fire Punch for 30 damage.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/20.jpg Mine's A Drink (S)

Knock an enemy worm into the water using only a Mine in a Ranked Match.

 

Make sure that an enemy worm is a sufficient amount of space from the water before trying. When going for this trophy, remember to position the mine at the opposite side of the water that the worm is facing. For example, if the water is to the left of the enemy worm, then place the mine a little over to the right so the explosion will send the worm in the opposite direction.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/22.jpg Mine All Mine! (G)

Detonate at least 5 Mines during one turn in a Ranked Match.

 

Unfortunately, this trophy along with the "Mine Gott!" trophy are glitched, but it has been confirmed that they can still be obtained. Thanks to CaptainSellers for this information:

 

You can use YOUR OWN mines. I just tested this - the 3 mine trophy never worked, until I detonated 4. I tested the 5 mine trophy with 6 of my own just in case, and can confirm this works.

 

First, you’ll need to find a map with 6 mines located relatively close together. The best way to earn this trophy would be to use either the Ninja Rope or Jet Pack and navigate around the map. There's a likely chance that you won't have enough swings/fuel to get all of the mines with the Ninja Rope/Jet Pack, so be prepared to have to use another. Standard seems to be the best mode to get this in, as you'll have more time during your turn. Remember to not fly too close and get hit by the explosion or you'll have to try again. This is one of the more difficult online trophies, so if you're looking to boost it, the relevant thread can be found here: Worms 2: Armageddon Boosting Thread

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/24.jpg Ranked Master (G)

Achieve 17 wins in each of the following ranked game modes: Standard, Pro, Crazy Crates and Fort

 

This trophy is self-explanatory and will come over time. You can look at your Save File to see how many ranked games you have one, but bear in mind that this is only an overall figure, and thus does not tell you how many wins you have in each mode. Therefore, I would recommend that you keep a record of your wins yourself.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/25.jpg One Good Turn... (G)

Inflict maximum damage on an enemy worm the turn after they've inflicted maximum damage on one of your worms during a Ranked Match.

 

Although the description makes this trophy sound extremely difficult, rest assured that it is much easier than it sounds. As previously stated, "Maximum Damage" refers to the highest amount of damage that a weapon can do. The Fire Punch, Dragon Ball and Baseball Bat will always inflict a maximum of 30 damage upon impact, so a sure-fire way to obtain this trophy would be to use any of these weapons on an enemy worm if they have used them on you in the previous turn. It does not need to be on the same enemy worm.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/26.jpg Armageddon Good At This! (G)

Win a Ranked Match by being the last worm standing after deploying Armageddon.

 

Please note that this weapon CANNOT be used or obtained on an underground map. Armageddon is an extremely powerful weapon which will bring a Meteor Shower on the entire landscape and destroy anything in its way - barrels, mines, your worms, enemy worms - nothing is safe from this almighty weapon. Needless to say, you'll need to find yourself some sufficient cover before using this weapon - the Blowtorch/Pneumatic Drill will allow you to dig deeper into the landscape to find cover, or Teleporting to a well-covered position will also help.

 

This trophy is based completely on luck, as not only is Armageddon difficult to obtain, but there is a chance that it will wipe you out as well. Although the description states that you must be "the last worm standing," I can confirm that you CAN obtain this trophy if you have more than one worm left on your own team. As well as this, if you use Armageddon and it does not destroy the enemy team, but you go on to win the match, then you will also obtain this trophy. The best chance of getting Armageddon would be to play a Crazy Crates match, as this mode drops the most weapons and therefore increases your chances of obtaining the weapon. There’s not really much more advice I can give other than to be well prepared before using this fearsome weapon.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/415/27.jpg Donkey Dodger (G)

Survive the enemy deploying a Concrete Donkey in a Ranked Match and go on to win the round.

 

This is another extremely difficult trophy and again, requires a large amount of luck to obtain, mainly because even if your opponent obtains it, there's a chance that they may not even use it. The Concrete Donkey is a truly mighty weapon and no worm is safe from it's path whether they are under cover or not - this weapon will tear through the landscape right through until the water at the bottom. Although the trophy description states that you need to "survive" the enemy deploying the weapon, I can confirm that your worm CAN be killed by it. As long as you go on to win the match, then you will obtain this trophy. As previously stated, the best chance of obtaining the Concrete Donkey would be to play a Crazy Crates game, as this mode drops the most weapons and therefore increases your chances of obtaining it.

 

However, that’s not all - remember that you still need to win the match. Be extremely cautious after a Donkey attack and try not to engage in direct combat unless absolutely necessary. Cover will be absolutely vital here. This is one of the more difficult of the online trophies to obtain, so if you're having no luck in getting it, you can refer to the Boosting Thread located here: Worms 2: Armageddon Boosting Thread

Cool guide, question...why are mine gott and mine all mine listed as glitched? They don't appear be glitched, i have mine gott, i managed to get 4 mines in one turn in a ranked match for that one..based on that i assume when I detonate 5 in one turn I will get the gold trophy.

 

I listed them as glitched because people have been saying that you need to get 4 mines in order to get the Mine Gott trophy. The description says you only need to detonate 3, so is therefore incorrect. I've detonated 3 myself and have not been awarded with the trophy, however I read confirmations saying that getting 4 will do it. Same thing with the Mine All Mine trophy, except it's 6 mines instead of 5.

" Win any Playstation Network game using just the Grenade.

You CAN use Utilities. You can use Ninja Rope, Jetpack and Girder :) Everything that can't kill enemy.

Good stuff mate, should be stickied :D

 

Cheers mate, I appreciate that :)

Now that is interesting. Perhaps this trophy is glitched too, but in our favour? I'll do some investigating tonight - thanks for sharing this info :)

Using the Ninja Rope in air to swing again will not count towards the trophy. I have the PC version where i checked the stats for it. The fastest way to get this trophy in 5 minutes is to enter Firing Range, Drill a hole and keep spamming X. Reason you want to drill a hole is because the next rope shot will fire to the opposite direction always, so when theres a wall at the both sides its easy and fast to get the trophy.

Fantastic tip there - added to guide and credit given ;)

I dont know if this has been posted allready but me and my boosting buddy (Catolepas) found that while going for the grenade and bazooka only wins you can not only just injure the oppositon with the above weapon (and not kill) but if the opposition surrenders after the hit you win and get the respective trophies. Huge time saver!
