Full Guide Intro

The Conqueror of the Golden CC trophy is one of the easiest hidden trophies in Death Stranding 2, but actually locating a Golden Chiral Creature can be surprisingly difficult.

These rare golden creatures are extremely uncommon compared to normal Chiral Creatures, and many players may finish the story without ever seeing one.

Fortunately, there is a reliable location where they frequently appear.


What Are Golden Chiral Creatures?

Golden Chiral Creatures are rare variants of standard Chiral Creatures.

They are recognizable by:

  • Bright metallic gold coloration.
  • Small floating bodies.
  • Ghost-like appearance.
  • Large Chiral Crystal rewards.

Many players compare them to floating golden ghosts due to their unusual shape and movement.


The earliest convenient opportunity comes after reaching the northern portion of Australia.

A good point to begin searching is after:

Order 24

Once you complete the timed delivery involving the Pizza Chef, you'll gain access to an area that contains one of the most reliable Golden Chiral Creature spawn locations.


Unlock The Architect

Before searching, it's highly recommended to connect The Architect.

You can do this through:

Sub Order 105

This delivery sends Sam to the Architect and expands the Chiral Network into the surrounding area.

Completing the delivery makes exploration much easier.


Golden Chiral Creature Location

After leaving The Architect shelter:

  1. Exit the facility.
  2. Head southeast.
  3. Move into the nearby rocky terrain.
  4. Look for streams of floating tar rising into the air.

These streams mark two small tar pools.

This area is where Golden Chiral Creatures most commonly appear.


When Do Golden Chiral Creatures Spawn?

While they can appear at different times, they seem most common during:

  • Nighttime.
  • Early morning hours.

They may still appear during the day, but many players report better results searching after sunset.

If none appear immediately:

  • Rest at a facility.
  • Advance time.
  • Return and search again.

How To Identify Golden Chiral Creatures

Golden Chiral Creatures are much smaller than BTs.

Look for:

  • Floating golden figures.
  • Metallic crystal-like shine.
  • Movement around tar pools.
  • Bright coloration similar to Chiral Crystals.

Because of their small size, they're easy to overlook when moving quickly through the area.


How To Unlock The Trophy

The trophy requirements are extremely simple.

Once you locate a Golden Chiral Creature:

  1. Aim a weapon.
  2. Shoot the creature.
  3. Destroy it.

The moment it dies, the:

Conqueror of the Golden CC

trophy unlocks automatically.

No additional objectives are required.


Farming Chiral Crystals

Golden Chiral Creatures are also valuable resource sources.

Defeating them rewards large amounts of:

Chiral Crystals

Many players report earning hundreds of crystals from a single creature.

If multiple creatures spawn near the tar pools, this area can become a useful source of quick Chiral Crystal income.

While not the most consistent farming method in the game, it can provide substantial rewards when the creatures appear.

Step-by-Step

  1. Progress beyond Order 24.
  2. Complete Sub Order 105.
  3. Connect The Architect.
  4. Exit the shelter.
  5. Travel southeast toward the nearby tar pools.
  6. Locate a Golden Chiral Creature.
  7. Shoot and destroy it.
  8. Unlock the trophy.

What You Need

  • Access to northern Australia.
  • Connection to The Architect.
  • Any ranged weapon.
  • Access to the tar pools southeast of the Architect.

Best Strategy

Search the tar pools near the Architect at night. Golden Chiral Creatures appear to spawn more consistently during darker hours, making them much easier to locate.

Rewards

  • Conqueror of the Golden CC Trophy.
  • Large amount of Chiral Crystals.
  • Progress toward trophy completion.

Tips

If no Golden Chiral Creatures appear, rest at a nearby facility and return later. Respawning the area is often faster than searching across the entire map for another potential spawn location.
