Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Trophy Guide

Unlock Details

Collect 30 Audio Logs. Audio Logs can be found in several different ways throughout Pandora: Clearing RDA Outposts and checking their reward rooms. Reactivating Resistance Field Labs. Searching Resistance HQ after main quests. Picking them up during story missions. The biggest thing to watch for is Resistance HQ. Make sure you thoroughly search HQ before completing Main Quest 27: Revelations, because the base is destroyed after that point. Some Audio Logs found there can become unavailable once the story moves on. There are plenty of Audio Logs spread across the game, so you do not need every single one. You only need 30 for the trophy. Useful places to keep checking include: TAP Con-1 Resistance Field Labs Resistance Headquarters Ruins of Resistance Headquarters RDA Outposts Examples of Audio Logs you can find include: Billy’s Personal Log: Leaving the RDA Alex’s Notes: Biodiversity Resistance Field Data: The First Zakru Ri’nela’s Personal Log: Are We Really Alone? Alma’s Personal Log: The Right Choice Priya’s Recording RDA SecOps Log Probably My Final Report Daniela’s Personal Log: Forever on Pandora Goodbye, Dani RDA Report on Local Insurgency Thoughts on Defectors RDA Log: Last Message? Harding’s Personal Log: Loop Ardmore In? Once you collect 30 Audio Logs, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Get into the habit of checking desks, terminals, tables, and reward rooms whenever you enter a Field Lab, Outpost, or major story location. If you collect them naturally as you go, you should avoid a long cleanup later.

Warning

Search Resistance HQ before completing Revelations. Several logs can be found there before the base is destroyed, so this is one of the few collectible types where story progress can matter. Pandora may be under attack, but apparently everyone still has time to leave behind extremely detailed voice notes.

Unlock Details

Unlock 3 recipes for specialty dishes. There are 51 specialty dish recipes in the game, and you only need 3 for this trophy. You can unlock specialty recipes in a few different ways: Complete main and side quests that reward recipes. Loot Wicker Baskets while exploring. Experiment with ingredients by checking harvested plants or animal materials in your inventory to see if they have a special combination with another ingredient. You can track how many specialty dishes you have unlocked by opening the Journal and checking the Recipes tab. If you loot Wicker Baskets regularly and complete side content as you go, you can likely earn this trophy fairly early in the game.

Tip

Don’t ignore Wicker Baskets. They’re one of the easiest ways to build up your recipe collection without going out of your way. Three recipes is all you need, so there is no reason to turn this into Pandora’s version of MasterChef.

Collect all 9 Windswept Dolls in the Clouded Forest. These green puppet collectibles are spread across 4 sub-regions: Cascading Stones: 2 Stone Cloud Valley: 4 The Cut: 2 Cradling Pines: 1 None are missable, and they can be collected in any order. The 9 Windswept Doll locations are: The Fellow Windswept Doll Cascading Stones Found beneath a lone rock formation at the river directly south of Shadowed Cove. The Abandoned Windswept Doll Cascading Stones Found inside a giant hollow tree trunk close to the river north of Ensnared Lake. The Sprinter Windswept Doll Stone Cloud Valley Found on the upper level of a standing hollow tree trunk. The Sitting Elder Windswept Doll Stone Cloud Valley Found inside an underground cave. One-Eyed Mother Windswept Doll Stone Cloud Valley Found inside a fallen hollow tree beneath the floating mountains. The Baby Face Windswept Doll Stone Cloud Valley Found beneath a lone stone formation under a single floating rock. The Strong Windswept Doll The Cut Found beneath a moss-covered boulder east of The Herbery and south of Sheltering Log Station. The Siren Windswept Doll The Cut Found inside a hollow tree stump resting on a boulder, south of the waterfalls southeast of The Herbery. The Blonde Adonis Windswept Doll Cradling Pines Found beneath a collapsed hollow tree on the east shore of the river south of Mossy Nook Field Lab. Once all 9 are collected, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

These dolls are not marked directly on the map, so following the locations one by one will save a lot of wandering through the Clouded Forest. After collecting them all, deliver them to the Kame’tire storyteller in The Hollows to complete the side quest The Dark Theater. Nine creepy little forest dolls later, you’ll either have a trophy or the beginning of a very questionable collection.

Unlock Details

Collect all 11 Treasure Hunt Comics. Each comic is tied to a Finding Home Exploration quest. The first 10 cannot simply be picked up from the world like normal collectibles. You first need to hack a Computer Terminal with the SID. Doing this gives you: A clue about a small RDA lab A photo of the location A short description to help you find it Once you reach the matching lab, enter the trailer and collect the comic book inside. The 11th comic works differently. After collecting the first 10, you will receive a final side quest that points you toward an abandoned RDA base where the last comic can be found. None of the comics are missable, and you can collect the first 10 in any order. The 11 comic locations are: Comic Book Page 1 Kinglor Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the western side of the Kinglor Forest. Follow the clue to the matching RDA lab and collect the comic inside. Comic Book Page 2 Kinglor Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the northern side of the Kinglor Forest. Use the photo and clue to track down the lab and collect the next page. Comic Book Page 3 Kinglor Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the eastern side of the Kinglor Forest. Hack the terminal, find the matching RDA lab, and collect the comic. Comic Book Page 4 Upper Plains The related Computer Terminal is in the southeastern side of the Upper Plains. Follow the clue to the lab and grab the comic inside. Comic Book Page 5 Upper Plains The related Computer Terminal is in the western side of the Upper Plains. Hack it, follow the photo, and collect the page from the RDA lab. Comic Book Page 6 Upper Plains The related Computer Terminal is in the far northeastern side of the Upper Plains. Use the clue to locate the next lab and comic. Comic Book Page 7 Clouded Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the northern side of the Clouded Forest. Hack the terminal, follow the clue, and collect the comic from the matching lab. Comic Book Page 8 Clouded Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the northeastern side of the Clouded Forest. Find the lab shown in the clue and collect the comic inside. Comic Book Page 9 Clouded Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the eastern side of the Clouded Forest. Follow the terminal clue to its matching lab and grab the comic. Comic Book Page 10 Clouded Forest The related Computer Terminal is in the southern side of the Clouded Forest. Hack it, locate the correct RDA lab, and collect the tenth comic. Comic Book Page 11 Divergence Station After collecting the first 10 comics, follow the final Finding Home quest to Divergence Station, an abandoned RDA location used by defectors joining the Resistance. Collect the final page there to finish the story and unlock the trophy.

Tip

The photo clue is the important part. Compare the landscape carefully and use nearby landmarks to narrow down the correct lab location. Eleven comic pages, ten hacked terminals, one final hideout, and probably more detective work than anyone expected from a collectible hunt.

Follow all 11 Bladewing Moth Trails to their nests. These activities begin at distinctive blue-leaf trees found throughout Pandora. Interact with the tree and a group of Bladewing Moths will fly out. Follow them closely as they travel through the environment until they reach their nest. Reaching the nest completes that Bladewing Moth Trail and rewards you with a hidden fruit. None of the trails are missable, and they can be completed in any order. The 11 Bladewing Moth Trails are located at: Bladewing Moth Trail 1 Kinglor Forest Waterway Valley Bladewing Moth Trail 2 Kinglor Forest Silk Woods Bladewing Moth Trail 3 Kinglor Forest Silk Woods Bladewing Moth Trail 4 Kinglor Forest Gossamer Lakes Bladewing Moth Trail 5 Upper Plains The Celebration Valley Bladewing Moth Trail 6 Upper Plains Mother of Rivers Bladewing Moth Trail 7 Upper Plains Shattered Bridge Bladewing Moth Trail 8 Upper Plains The Stone Hold Bladewing Moth Trail 9 Upper Plains The Stone Hold Bladewing Moth Trail 10 Clouded Forest Stone Cloud Valley Bladewing Moth Trail 11 Clouded Forest The Cut Complete all 11 trails and the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Stay close to the moths once they start moving. The activity is much easier when you follow immediately instead of trying to figure out where the swarm disappeared to afterward. The good news: the moths know exactly where they are going. The bad news: they have absolutely no concern for whether you can keep up.

Unlock Details

ouch 20 Bellsprigs. Bellsprigs are shrubs found all across Pandora. Each one permanently increases your health by 2, so they are extremely useful even after you have unlocked the trophy. There are around 160 Bellsprigs across the world, but you only need to touch 20. Like other collectibles, their locations appear as purple spheres on the map from a distance. You will not know exactly what type of collectible the marker represents until you get close. None of the Bellsprigs are missable, and they can be collected in any order.

Tip

Do not ignore these during the story. Picking them up naturally while exploring makes combat much easier later and prevents unnecessary cleanup. Twenty Bellsprigs for the trophy, a bigger health bar for you, and one less reason to panic when the RDA starts unloading on you.

Unlock Details

Unlock 30 Hunter’s Guide entries for gatherable plants. There are around 70 plant species across Pandora, but only gatherable plants that provide useful materials count toward this trophy. To inspect a plant, hold R1 and press R3 while looking at it. Once scanned, the plant is added to the Hunter’s Guide and you can check what material it provides and what it can be used for. You can also unlock plant entries by collecting harvested materials from baskets. Only plants that provide usable loot count. Decorative plants or plants that only affect your character temporarily do not count as gatherable plants for the trophy. Useful gatherable plant materials include: Bark Bast Branch Cone Fiber Fruit Moss Mushroom Reed Resin Root Seed Once you have 30 valid gatherable plant entries in the Hunter’s Guide, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Scan unfamiliar plants as you travel and gather at least a few whenever possible. You’ll need plenty of materials for crafting and cooking anyway, so this trophy fits naturally into normal exploration. Thirty plants sounds like a lot until you remember Pandora is basically one giant glowing botanical garden.

Unlock Details

Tune all Aeolian Wind Flutes. There are 17 Aeolian Wind Flutes in total. 13 are open-world collectibles found throughout the Upper Plains. The other 4 are tuned automatically during the main quest The Weeping Gorge. The open-world flutes appear as wooden structures. When you reach one, interact with the lever and move the Left Stick to tune it. Like other collectibles, their general locations can appear as purple spheres on the map, but you will not know exactly what type of collectible they are until you get close. None of the 13 open-world flutes are missable, and they can be completed in any order. The 13 open-world Aeolian Wind Flutes are spread across the Upper Plains. Once all 13 open-world flutes are tuned and the 4 story-related flutes from The Weeping Gorge are completed, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Tip: Do not panic if you only find 13 on the map. The remaining 4 are tied to The Weeping Gorge and are handled through the story. Tip: Whenever you see a purple marker in the Upper Plains, get close enough to identify it. You may knock out several flutes naturally while exploring instead of leaving all 13 for cleanup. Seventeen flutes later, you will have successfully turned the Upper Plains into one enormous Na’vi wind instrument.

Unlock Details

Complete 10 Mycelium Network activities using Budding Watchers in the Clouded Forest. There are 9 Budding Watchers across Pandora, which means you will need to complete every one and then repeat one after it resets. Budding Watchers are enormous purple mushrooms found throughout the Clouded Forest. When you reach one, you first need to activate 4 smaller mushrooms nearby. Follow the trail of small mushrooms leading away from the main Budding Watcher until you locate each of the 4 medium-sized mushrooms and wake them up. Once all 4 are activated, return to the giant Budding Watcher. It will now open, allowing you to enter and collect the basket inside. Make sure you actually collect the basket. Simply solving the mushroom activity does not count as completing it. After approximately 24 hours in real-world time, completed Budding Watchers reset and can be done again. Since there are only 9 unique activities and the trophy requires 10 completions, return after the reset and complete any one of them a second time. None of the Budding Watchers are missable, and you can complete them in any order. The supplied collectible information lists 9 Budding Watchers in total, although it only provides specific reference entries for Budding Watchers 1–7.

Tip

Do all 9 as early as reasonably possible, then come back after the 24-hour reset for your tenth completion. That is much better than reaching the end of the Platinum and discovering that a mushroom has put you on a real-world timer.

Warning

You need 10 completed activities but there are only 9 unique Budding Watchers, so one must be completed again after the mushrooms reset. Pandora has giant glowing mushrooms, and somehow the hardest part is waiting for one to decide it is ready to be a mushroom again.

Unlock Details

Touch 20 Tarsyu Saplings. Tarsyu Saplings are smaller versions of Tarsyu Flowers and are one of the main ways you earn skill points in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Each Sapling you touch gives you 1 skill point, so these are worth grabbing even after you have enough for the trophy. There are roughly 60 Tarsyu Saplings across Pandora, but you only need 20. They are not fully revealed on the map until you get close to them. From farther away, collectible locations only appear as purple spheres, so exploring nearby areas is the best way to uncover them. None of the Saplings are missable, and they can be collected in any order.

Tip

Grab these whenever you see a purple marker nearby. You only need around a third of the total for the trophy, and every one makes your build stronger. Exploration pays off here. Pandora is basically handing out skill points if you are willing to wander off the main path.

Unlock Details

Collect 30 Notes. Notes are spread all across Pandora and can be found in several ways: Clearing RDA Outposts and checking their reward rooms. Reactivating Resistance Field Labs. Searching Resistance HQ after main quests. Finding them during story missions. Exploring areas around Computer Terminals. Computer Terminal areas are especially useful because you are guaranteed to find either an Audio Log or a Note nearby. There are more than 30 Notes available, so you do not need every single one. Examples include: Sciops Work Order 001–010 Air Quality Index Findings TAP School Records Join the Resistance Our Final Option Space Pickles Kame’tire Folktale Turning the Tables Zeswa Death Culture: A Mystery, Explained Status Report IH452 Profile of the Resistance Additional Weaponry Request Resistance HQ Assault Preparations Zeswa Interrogation Transcript Intake Manifest Make a habit of checking desks, tables, workstations, and reward rooms whenever you enter a Field Lab, Outpost, or major story location. Warning: Search Resistance HQ before completing Revelations. Some Notes are only available before the HQ is destroyed, so grab everything you can there before progressing too far.

Tip

You only need 30, so don’t stress about finding every Note in the game. If you explore naturally and clear Outposts along the way, this should build up steadily. Apparently saving Pandora also involves reading a truly heroic amount of paperwork.

Unlock Details

Unlock 3 Ancestor Skills by finding and interacting with Tarsyu Flowers. There are 12 Tarsyu Flowers across Pandora, but you only need 3 for this trophy. When you find one, approach the red flower and connect with it to meet the Ancestor and unlock a new skill. The 12 available Ancestor Skills are: Air Boost Kinglor Forest Unlocks a double jump. Eject Kinglor Forest Lets you remove AMP drivers. Drop Impact Kinglor Forest Lets you attack enemies when dropping from above. Soft Landing Kinglor Forest Reduces fall damage. Deeper Connection Kinglor Forest Increases your Ikran’s stamina. Screech Ability Upper Plains Lets your Ikran disorient smaller enemies with a piercing screech. Wing Gust Upper Plains Lets your Ikran damage and disorient nearby enemies with its wings. Way of the Diplomat Upper Plains Increases the resources and blueprints you receive. Reconnaissance Upper Plains Lets you see enemy movement paths. Ghost Strike Upper Plains Improves your aim while undetected. Free Fast Travel Clouded Forest Lets you fast travel without spending stamina. Tarsyu Network Clouded Forest Reveals the locations of other Tarsyu Saplings. None of the Tarsyu Flowers are missable, and you can collect them in any order. They begin appearing on your map after Main Quest 5, but some require further story progress before you can reach them. You’ll need your Ikran from Main Quest 11 to reach 3 additional flowers in the Kinglor Forest. The Deeper Connection flower also requires you to clear the Level 20 Laser Ore Base first. Progress to Main Quest 14 to access the 5 flowers in the Upper Plains. Progress to Main Quest 20 to access the 2 flowers in the Clouded Forest.

Tip

You only need 3 for the trophy, so there is no reason to hunt all 12 immediately. Grab the easiest ones you naturally pass while exploring, then come back for the rest later if you want their abilities. Some of these skills are genuinely useful, especially Air Boost, Soft Landing, Deeper Connection, and Free Fast Travel, so this is one collectible hunt that actually pays you back.

Unlock Details

Collect all 9 Windswept Kites in the Upper Plains. These orange and yellow kites are found across the Mother of Rivers and Shattered Bridge sub-regions. None of them are missable, and you can collect them in any order. The 9 kite locations are: Spite Kite Mother of Rivers Found on a grass-covered stone spire west of the First Zakru. Transforming Kite Mother of Rivers Found along the southern edge, on top of the center of the First Zakru. Storm Kite Mother of Rivers Found on top of the eastern end of the First Zakru. Spirit of the Clan Kite Shattered Bridge Found on top of a stone spire in the canyon between Walker’s Haven and Kite String Point. Flower Kite Shattered Bridge Found on top of a Windbent Tree along the cliffs south of Kite String Point. Warning Kite Shattered Bridge Found on top of a broken stone arch between Kite String Point and Kitemaker’s Canyon. Fog Guiding Kite Shattered Bridge Found on a stone pillar north of Kitemaker’s Canyon, near the center of Shattered Bridge. Fight Kite Shattered Bridge Found on top of a lone stone pillar in the center of Shattered Bridge. Kite of Water Shattered Bridge Found on top of a broken stone arch in eastern Shattered Bridge. Once all 9 are collected, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

These kites are not marked directly on the map, so this is one collectible set where following the locations closely will save you a lot of flying around and staring at cliffs. After collecting them all, return them to the kite owner in The Circle to complete the side quest The Winds Will Carry Us.

Unlock Details

Complete all 12 Sarentu Totem interactions. Sarentu Totems are wooden structures found across all 3 major regions of Pandora. When you discover one, look for the blue flags on the ground nearby. Follow the direction shown by the flags until you reach the marked viewpoint. From there, look back toward the Totem and complete the interaction. None of the Totems are missable, and they can be completed in any order. The 12 Sarentu Totems are located in: Kinglor Forest Waterway Valley Kinglor Forest Spinner’s Circle Kinglor Forest Silk Woods Kinglor Forest Gossamer Lakes Upper Plains The Celebration Valley Upper Plains Mother of Rivers Upper Plains Mother of Rivers Upper Plains Mother of Rivers Upper Plains Eywa’s Reach Clouded Forest Cradling Pines Clouded Forest The Cut Clouded Forest Stone Cloud Valley Complete the interaction at all 12 Totems and the trophy will unlock.

Tip

After completing all of the Totems, speak with Ri’nela at the Resistance Base to finish the Sarentu Totems side quest. Twelve Totems, twelve viewpoints, and just enough blue flags to make you feel like Pandora itself is giving you directions.

Unlock Details

Unlock 20 Hunter’s Guide entries for gatherable wildlife. Pandora has 42 wildlife species, but only gatherable wildlife counts toward this trophy. To inspect a species, hold R1 and press R3 while looking at it. Once scanned, it will be added to the Hunter’s Guide, where you can see what materials it provides and how useful those materials are. You can also unlock entries by obtaining animal materials from baskets, so you may make progress without directly scanning every creature yourself. Only wildlife that provides usable materials counts. Small creatures like lizards, butterflies, and some birds do not count if they are not gatherable. You can also make progress by scanning things like nests, hives, and shells if they provide gatherable materials. Useful gatherable wildlife materials include: Bone Egg Fatty Meat Fish Heavy Hide Horn Light Hide Nectar Shell Tooth Once you have 20 valid Hunter’s Guide entries, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Make a habit of scanning new wildlife whenever you enter a new area. If you do this naturally while progressing through the story, you should reach 20 without needing a dedicated cleanup run. Pandora has a lot of wildlife, and apparently being a Na’vi also means becoming a part-time field biologist.
