Far Cry 4 Trophy Roadmap

EARLY GAME

Welcome to Kyrat! What begins as a simple trip to scatter your mother's ashes quickly turns into a civil war involving a ruthless dictator, a rebellious resistance movement, and enough heavily armed soldiers to make you seriously question your travel arrangements. You'll play as Ajay Ghale, helping the Golden Path fight against Pagan Min while exploring the beautiful and occasionally terrifying Himalayan wilderness. Fortunately, the Platinum only requires one campaign playthrough, with no difficulty-related or permanently missable trophies.

Before getting too comfortable in Kyrat, prioritize the online trophies. You'll need to complete a public match in each of the three Battles of Kyrat modes for Renaissance Man, play a Top Rated map for Community Surprise, and complete two cooperative objectives for Brother in Arms and Changing Lanes. These online features have experienced connectivity problems in the past, so it's worth checking that you can access them before investing heavily in the campaign. For Changing Lanes, unlock the Vehicle Takedown skill and perform a vehicle takedown from the passenger seat while your co-op partner drives. For Brother in Arms, join another player's campaign as Hurk and help liberate an outpost.

Once you're ready to explore, start activating bell towers to reveal the map and liberating enemy outposts to unlock fast-travel locations. Upgrade your weapon holster early so you can carry a more versatile arsenal, and hunt animals to gather skins for equipment upgrades. Make a habit of tagging enemies with your camera and distracting guards with rocks, since these contribute toward Shutterbug and Misdirection. Also, defend any liberated outposts that come under attack. You'll need to repel three retaliation parties for Defender, and taking over nearby fortresses can stop those attacks from occurring. Apparently, winning territory is only half the job. You also have to keep answering the door when Pagan's army comes knocking.

MID GAME

As the story progresses, continue helping the Golden Path while completing activities across southern Kyrat. The campaign will introduce you to several major characters and eventually require decisions involving Amita, Sabal, and Pagan Min. These choices don't affect the Platinum, so follow whichever path you prefer. Complete story missions while steadily working toward All Clear, which requires liberating all 24 outposts, and End Transmission, which requires activating eight bell towers. You'll also need to conquer two fortresses for Display of Fortitude, but it's generally better to wait until story progression weakens their defenses.

Start collecting items as you explore rather than leaving everything for the end. You'll need to remove 15 Masks of Yalung, tear down 30 propaganda posters, collect 10 Lost Letters, spin 10 Mani Wheels, and read 10 notes. Purchase collectible maps from trading posts when available to make searching easier. You should also complete side activities whenever they appear nearby, including hunting quests, assassination missions, hostage rescues, bomb defusal missions, and Kyrati Films challenges. These activities provide experience and money while helping you work toward several trophies simultaneously.

This is also the ideal time to build progress toward combat trophies. Ride elephants and trample enemies for Tusker, use mortars for Reign of Death, and experiment with fire, explosives, and vehicle combat whenever convenient. Keep earning experience and purchasing skills in both the Tiger and Elephant skill trees. Fully Loaded requires learning every skill, including all repeatable upgrade levels, so don't neglect your progression. Ajay may be fighting for the future of Kyrat, but there's nothing wrong with taking occasional breaks to ride an elephant into an enemy compound. Some problems simply require a more dramatic entrance.

LATE GAME

As you advance into northern Kyrat, stronger enemies, additional outposts, and new opportunities will become available. Continue completing the story while finishing any remaining bell towers, outposts, and fortresses. You'll eventually earn the story-related trophies for confronting Pagan Min's key allies and deciding his fate. The final choices don't prevent you from earning the Platinum, so there's no need to replay the campaign for a different ending. You can return to the open world afterward to finish outstanding objectives.

By this stage, you should have access to enough weapons and abilities to tackle the more demanding combat challenges. Try earning From a Distance with a bow kill from at least 60 meters, Two Birds by killing two enemies with one sniper rifle shot, and The Sky Is Falling by performing a takedown from a Buzzer. Work toward 50 fire kills for Flame On!, 25 shooting-and-driving kills for Drive-By, and 25 vehicle kills for Roadkill. If you've unlocked the Elephant Rider skill, use elephants against enemy groups to build your 30 kills for Tusker. The local wildlife might be dangerous, but at least one animal is willing to help with your trophy collection.

Before clearing every remaining enemy-controlled location, check your progress on Defender and other combat trophies. Once a fortress has been conquered, retaliation attacks stop occurring at outposts in its region. You can restore enemy activity later by resetting outposts, but taking care of these objectives naturally will save time. Also, visit the Arena and begin working toward The People's Champ, which requires reaching Arena Rank 5. Weapon challenges are a useful way to earn Arena points, and the flamethrower challenge can help you progress toward Flame On!. Nothing says personal growth quite like becoming a respected gladiator in a country you originally planned to visit for a few days.

TROPHY CLEANUP AND EXTRA TIPS

After completing the story, use free roam to finish any remaining collectibles, side missions, and combat challenges. Check your map for missing Lost Letters, Masks of Yalung, Mani Wheels, and propaganda posters. Complete three Kyrat Fashion Week quests for The Rarest Game and craft five equipment upgrades for Tricked Out. Purchase three improvements for the Ghale Homestead to earn Fixer-Upper, craft 15 syringes for Dr. Feelgood, and spend a cumulative 500,000 rupees at trading posts for Make It Rain. If you still need The Good Fight, reach Karma Level 2 and purchase a Guns for Hire upgrade.

Fully Loaded may be one of your final single-player trophies. It requires purchasing every skill in both skill trees, including all ten levels of each repeatable Elephant-path upgrade. Some skills have additional requirements beyond experience points, so check their descriptions carefully. If you need more experience or additional enemies for combat trophies, replay an outpost through Outpost Master or use Reset Outposts in the Gameplay settings to restore enemy-controlled locations. For Misdirection, allow enemies to fully investigate your thrown rocks and return to their patrols before attempting another distraction. For Reign of Death, replay an outpost with a mortar and eliminate enemy reinforcements until you've reached 30 kills.

Finally, confirm that you've earned all four online trophies: Renaissance Man, Community Surprise, Brother in Arms, and Changing Lanes. Renaissance Man requires finishing public matches in Outpost, Demon Mask, and Propaganda, while Community Surprise requires playing a Top Rated user-created map. If matchmaking is quiet, organizing a group can make the multiplayer requirements easier, provided the services are functioning. Once all 50 other base-game trophies are unlocked, Master of Kyrat will award your Platinum. Congratulations! You've survived a civil war, conquered enemy fortresses, mastered an entire arsenal, and ridden elephants into battle. All things considered, scattering your mother's ashes turned into a surprisingly productive trip.
