I noticed I earned this achievement earlier, and it says "Have Barrows slow at least 20 creeps with a single attack", but I'm pretty sure I used a frost bomb to get this. Am I supposed to be allowed to do that?

It should not be possible with the Frost bomb - thanks for reporting it, we'll look into it!

I just looked into it. I'm pretty sure that it's not possible to trigger it with a frost bomb.

However, I did find a bug that makes it possible to trigger the achievement with less than 20 creeps when using multiple projectiles.

The way it works is like this: The game keeps track of the last three attacks by Barrows and remembers which projectiles belong to that attack. Whenever his splash effect is triggered (which is when the projectiles actually hit something), it adds all creeps hit by that splash to the counter for the attack. If a creep is hit by more than one projectile from that attack, it is counted multiple times.

I'll add this to our bug tracker and we'll address it in a future patch.
