Matthew Reynolds | How to 100% the shell slicing minigame in Crisis Core (Slicin' Soldier Trophy guide) @Crazyreyn | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Winning the shell slicing minigame in Chapter 2 of Crisis Core is essential for completionists, as it has a missable trophy attached for hitting all 10 missiles.
The key - at least for me - was to focus on an area of the screen, rather than one of the tells the game offers you. The main difficulty is the final missile, which requires some practice - I recommend striking earlier than you think to hit it.
If you fail - which is easily done - simply reload the most recent auto save, and you'll restart just after leaving the warehouse.
Getting 100% not only unlocks the Slicin' Soldier Trophy, but extends your timer for the Banora Treasures side-quest.
