Leaps and Bounds achievement in Angry Birds Stella (WP)

17 1 13

I used the first Episode Wall of Pigs 1 for this. You have 6 Stellas and there's a branch right under the catapult you can bounce her off. You will have to play this level 166 times to get the full 1000 but you will rack up a lot during the story anyway so it won't actually be that many.

Just an added extra: You have to use her power to bounce for it to count, thanks TanukiV.

You can grind this whilst waiting for the clouds to disperse and work towards:

And:

(you gain coins by smashing the pigs though, not hitting the branch).

It's like the Boss level. Directly after level 11. The treasure chest with the purple banner next to it.

I tried using level 57 - you can fire the pink birds between the trampoline and the solid structure holding it up (aim for the gap at the top of the top-right trampoline), so it bounces between the two - can get at least 3-4 bounces per bird using this method. Only tried it a few times (<20) after three-starring each level and it popped.

Level 57 of episode 2, that should have read

do you simply need to fire stella into any block, branch, anything and make her bounce off into space? or do you need to bounce and destroy blocks.. can I just aim for the branch and hit the screen to make her hit the branch and fly backward into the air off screen? I feel ive done this 1000 times already for no cheevo

I know it feels that way but you don't have to break any blocks. I mainly just bounced straight off the branch and it worked.

Using Wall of Pigs 1 as Oni suggested, I shot Stella near the top of the branch behind the catapult and used her power so she bounced up first. If I aimed right, she would bounce slowly down the branch, racking up a ton of bounces. You can also immediately fire the next one, so it takes amount no time, once you get the motion down.

I had finished the whole story first so not sure how many more bounces I needed, but using this method, the achievement popped for me after repeating the level just a few times.

just to clarify: i spent about 4 hours just releasing 6 stella to the branch under the catapult without using the powers and thought the achievement is glitched. I assumed i only need about 90 minutes to get this achievement since one need about 30 seconds for releasing 6 stella and restart.

Upon reading @ShiftedPhase's comment, I tried using the power and aimed right to below branch as well and stella bounces! Silly but you may want to clarify the solution :)

Oh man, I bet you hate the grind even more than ever!

you bet! not related but 15 hours and going i made ~1,000 coins using level 2-49, so roughly 65 coins per hour. Need about 1,500 coins more for the 5,000 coins grind
