How to Unlock the Oh, Snap! Trophy in FF16

Learn how to easily unlock the Oh, Snap! trophy in Final Fantasy XVI by mastering Shiva's Cold Snap ability and inflicting Permafrost on enemies. Follow our tips!

Alright, so you're aiming for that 'Oh, Snap!' trophy in Final Fantasy XVI? It sounds a bit tricky, but trust me, it's totally doable once you know the trick. It's all about mastering Shiva's unique dodge ability, Cold Snap. You need to land 10 'Permafrost' effects on enemies to snag this trophy. Don't worry, it doesn't have to be on 10 different enemies – just 10 times total!

Here's the lowdown:

First things first, make sure you've got Shiva equipped as one of your Eikons. You'll need to switch to her using the button to cycle through your Eikons. This trophy is strictly a Shiva-only affair, so stay locked in as her.

The key here is using Cold Snap, which you activate by pressing the O button. Think of it like a precision dodge, but with a frosty twist! If you time it just right as an enemy attacks, you'll not only dodge but also freeze them solid, triggering 'Permafrost' on your screen. That's what you're aiming for – 10 of those Permafrost hits.

Your Best Bet for Farming Permafrost:

The easiest way to rack up those 10 Permafrosts is to find a big, slow enemy that loves to charge. Think along the lines of a Gigas or an Ogre. Why these guys? Because their charging attacks are super predictable and give you a great window to nail a precision dodge with Cold Snap. Just wait until they're closing in, then hit O and phase right through them. It might take a couple of tries to get the timing down perfectly, but once you nail it, it becomes second nature.

If you're having trouble finding enemies that charge, don't sweat it. You can always try provoking them. Just create some distance and hit them with a bit of magic to get their attention.

Where to Find Good Targets:

• Gigas: You can find these lumbering foes in Cressida, Rosaria. It's east of Martha’s Rest and southeast of Eastpool.
• Ogre: Head to the cliff northeast of the Ravenwit Walls obelisk in Waloed.
• Bighorns: These are good too! Jump off the cliff south of the Three Reeds obelisk in Rosaria.
• Adamantoises: These are a bit tougher but very predictable. You'll find them in North Sorrowise, west of Martha’s Reach, Rosaria. Their charge is faster, but they do it often.

Once you've successfully landed 10 Permafrosts using Cold Snap, that trophy will pop. Easy peasy!
