To complete all three Challenges in the Destroying Starkiller level in Episode VII – The Force Awakens in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, you need to demonstrate superior piloting skills at the controls of Poe Dameron’s Black One T-70 X-Wing starfighter. As the name of the level strongly implies, your main objective is to destroy the Starkiller Base, but the following a couple of extra objectives will earn you some additional rewards and kudos on top.

Heck of a Pilot!: Whenever you see two halves of a red targeting reticule closing in on your X-Wing, that means an enemy has locked onto you. To break out of enemy lock-ons, wait until the two halves have almost come together, then press the shoulder buttons together to perform a loop and evade the lock on. Do this three times to complete the Heck of a Pilot! Challenge.

Snow Joke: To make a snowman out of Kylo Ren, you need to be playing on Free Play so that you can switch to a Jedi or Dark Side character. During your second duel with Kylo Ren you’ll notice a particularly big snowy chunk to one side of the clearing. Destroy that, build a snowman out of the debris, then use the Force to lift that snowman and throw it at Kylo Ren.

Keeping a Cool Head: After your second fight with Kylo Ren, immediately switch to Finn (or, if you’re playing in Free Play, any character with a blaster) and shoot the Snowtroopers in the head until five of them have lost their helmets.
