Kena Bridge of Spirits - Return to Sender Trophy Guide
426Kena Bridge of Spirits Return to Sender Trophy Guide - Destroyed a Mage with its own bomb. [Bronze]
There are only a few Mages during the story, making this one of the more easily missable combat trophies. All of them are automatic story-related encounters. The first one is after restoring all of the Ancient Shrines in Forgotten Forest, he will be a miniboss with a healthbar at the top of the screen. Then you fight another 2 on your way to clearing the corruption in the Village Heart Caves.
As soon as you encounter a Mage, create a Manual Save, so you can keep retrying if he dies by accident. Weaken him so he will die in one hit (use the bow for this). Wait until the Mage casts a red orb that homes in on you, that's his "bomb". What you must do is to press L1 just before this red orb hits you, thus performing a parry and throwing the orb back at him. If the Mage dies from this you earn the trophy. There will be a short animation / mini-cutscene in which Kena throws the orb back, that's how you know you did it correctly. The timing of this is very tricky and it can take a few minutes to get it right.
Press down L1 for 2 seconds in the exact moment the red orb is about to hit you. If you press too early it will hit your shield, if you press too late it will hit you directly. The timing has to be absolutely perfect.
Do NOT hold down L1 and then press L1 with the shield already around you (don't cast a shield bubble around you before attempting the L1 parry). This wouldn't work for a parry. You have to start casting your shield bubble in the exact moment the red orb hits.
You don't need any Upgrades for this. It can be done with the default Shield without any upgrades.
