How to unlock the Fighting's Not My Thing trophy

    You'll briefly experience the hacking minigame during your first playthrough, but those don't count - you're playing as 2B and 9S is the one who does the hacking, even though you get control of it briefly.

    Instead, once you've beaten the game once, you must reload your cleared save and begin the game again as 9S - instead of a heavy attack, he can hack enemies. You'll immediately be sent on a mission with hacking targets, making the achievement practically automatic.

    To succeed at a hack, you must destroy the black sphere. Sometimes there are other enemies or blocks in the way that you have to destroy first to lower a shield around the sphere. White objects are impassible, orange-striped ones do damage to you on contact, and black objects must be destroyed. Orange enemy attacks can be shot to be destroyed while purple ones must be dodged (same as the pink and purple plasma attacks from normal enemies).
