Far Cry Primal Trophy Guide

How to Unlock

Eliminate 100 enemies using a club. Clubs are among Takkar's starting weapons and are especially effective during close-range combat. Equip a club from your weapon wheel and use it to attack hostile Udam and Izila warriors. Continue fighting until you've defeated 100 enemies using club attacks. You can earn these kills during story missions, sidequests, outpost captures, and random encounters throughout Oros. And Stay Down unlocks once your total reaches 100 club kills.

Tip

Use clubs frequently during the early game, when many enemies have limited protection and are easier to defeat at close range. Upgrading your club makes combat faster and helps against tougher opponents. You can also set clubs on fire to work toward Inflammable while defeating enemies.

Warning

The final killing blow must come from a club attack. If your tamed beast or another damage source finishes an enemy, that kill may not count toward your club total. You don't need to earn all 100 kills with the same club variation.

How to Unlock

Influence 25 enemies using poison. First, capture Big Darwa Fort and recruit Dah, the Udam specialist, into your Wenja village. This unlocks access to poison-related crafting abilities. Once you've obtained the ability to craft poison bombs, gather the necessary materials and equip them from your weapon selection. Find a group of hostile enemies and throw a poison bomb into their midst. Affected enemies become disoriented and may begin attacking their own allies. Repeat this process until you've successfully influenced 25 enemies with poison to unlock Bad Trip. You don't need to personally kill the affected enemies. The trophy tracks enemies influenced by poison rather than poison-related kills.

Tip

Enemy outposts are ideal because guards often gather close together. Throwing a poison bomb into a group can influence several enemies at once. Use your owl to scout enemy positions and identify locations where a single poison bomb will affect multiple targets.

Warning

Poison bombs must successfully affect hostile enemies to count. Throwing them into empty areas or at targets outside their effective range won't contribute toward the trophy. Recruiting Dah and unlocking poison crafting are necessary before you can begin working toward this requirement.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 10 enemies using sting bombs. Sting bombs release a swarm of aggressive bees that attack nearby enemies, making them useful for disrupting groups of hostile warriors. First, upgrade Takkar's Cave to Level 1 to unlock the ability to craft sting bombs. Gather the required crafting materials, equip your sting bombs, and locate hostile enemies during story missions, outpost captures, or exploration. Throw a sting bomb directly at an enemy or into a group of opponents. The bees will attack anyone caught within their effective range. Continue using sting bombs until you've eliminated 10 enemies with bee attacks to unlock BEES!

Tip

Target ordinary, lightly armored enemies because they're easier to defeat with sting bombs. Throw bombs into groups to maximize their effectiveness. If an enemy survives, you can weaken them with another weapon before using a sting bomb to secure the final kill.

Warning

Enemies must die from the sting bomb's bee attacks. Simply damaging or distracting enemies with bees won't count. Avoid finishing affected enemies with other weapons or sending your tamed beast to attack them before the bees complete the kill.

How to Unlock

Kill an enemy from at least 70 feet away using an arrow. This trophy is easiest after unlocking the Long Bow, which provides better accuracy and range than Takkar's starting bow. Find an enemy standing still at an uncaptured outpost or bonfire. Use your owl to locate the target and place a waypoint on them to measure the distance. Move at least 70 feet away, equip your Long Bow, and line up a headshot. Aim carefully and account for the arrow's trajectory if the target is especially far away. Release your arrow and eliminate the enemy from the required distance to unlock Bullseye.

Tip

Choose an unarmored guard who isn't moving. Headshots are the most reliable way to secure a kill before the enemy reacts. You can attempt Bullseye and Right On Target at the same outpost by targeting different guards from appropriate distances.

Warning

A regular bow may struggle at this range, so the Long Bow is strongly recommended. The killing blow must come from an arrow fired at least 70 feet away. If the target moves closer before being hit, the shot may no longer meet the distance requirement.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 10 enemies using a sling. The sling is a small ranged weapon that allows Takkar to launch stones at enemies. Unlike bows and spears, it requires careful aiming to deliver lethal damage. Equip the sling by holding Down on the D-pad, then target an enemy's head. Headshots are the most reliable way to secure kills with this weapon. Look for ordinary, unarmored enemies standing still or patrolling alone. Approach within a comfortable distance, aim directly at the head, and release your shot. Repeat until you've killed 10 enemies with the sling to unlock David And Goliath.

Tip

Enemy outposts and bonfires provide convenient targets because guards often remain stationary while watching entrances or patrolling predictable routes. Use Hunter Vision and your owl to identify isolated enemies before approaching. Aim for headshots against unarmored enemies to avoid wasting ammunition or alerting nearby guards.

Warning

Enemies wearing protective headgear may survive sling headshots unless you've unlocked the skill that allows your attacks to penetrate head protection. Body shots are generally ineffective for securing quick sling kills, so prioritize accurate headshots against vulnerable targets.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 15 enemies using your owl. First, recruit Tensay and unlock the Owl: Attack I skill in the Beast Master skill tree. This ability allows your owl to attack and kill enemies directly rather than simply scouting their locations. Summon your owl and fly toward a hostile enemy. Position the owl over the target, then use the attack command to eliminate them. After each attack, the owl enters a cooldown period before it can strike again. Continue using owl attacks against enemies until you've earned 15 kills. Feathered Friend unlocks when the final qualifying enemy has been eliminated.

Tip

Target ordinary, unarmored enemies because they're easier for your owl to kill. Use your owl while clearing enemy outposts or completing side missions so the kills accumulate naturally throughout your playthrough. Additional owl skills can reduce the attack cooldown, allowing you to earn the required kills faster.

Warning

Owl attacks are unavailable in Survivor Mode. Complete this trophy in a standard game mode. Simply marking enemies with your owl or dropping other weapons on them doesn't satisfy the requirement. The kills must come from the owl's direct attack ability.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 10 enemies using hunting traps. Hunting traps allow Takkar to kill enemies by placing deadly traps on the ground and luring hostile warriors into them. Craft hunting traps using the required materials, then equip them from your weapon selection. Find an enemy at an outpost, bonfire, or during open-world exploration. Place a trap along the enemy's patrol route or directly in front of an approaching warrior. You can also throw rocks to attract enemies toward a trap you've already placed. Continue luring enemies into your traps until you've killed 10 of them to unlock Gotcha.

Tip

Ordinary, lightly armored enemies are the easiest targets. If you're struggling to predict their movements, approach a hostile warrior, place a trap directly in their path, and retreat until they step onto it. Enemy outposts are useful because guards often follow predictable patrol routes.

Warning

The trap must deliver the killing blow. Simply damaging an enemy with a trap before finishing them with another weapon won't count. Avoid targeting heavily armored enemies when possible, as they can be harder to eliminate with a single trap.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 50 enemies using fire. Fire can be used to damage enemies by igniting your weapons or throwing fire bombs. Both methods contribute toward the trophy as long as the enemy is killed by fire. Early in the game, you can ignite clubs, spears, and arrows using available flames. Strike or shoot enemies with these burning weapons to set them alight. Later, after capturing Fire Screamer Fort, you'll gain access to fire bombs, which make it easier to burn multiple enemies during combat. Continue setting enemies on fire until you've eliminated 50 of them to unlock Inflammable.

Tip

Fire bombs are especially effective against groups of enemies in outposts or during large battles. Throw them into tightly packed groups to burn several targets at once. You can also ignite your club while working toward And Stay Down, reducing the amount of separate grinding required.

Warning

The killing damage must come from fire. If an enemy survives the flames and is subsequently killed by an ordinary weapon attack or your beast companion, that kill may not count. Keep sufficient crafting materials available so you can replenish your fire bombs and other ammunition.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 25 enemies using takedowns. Takedowns are stealth attacks that allow Takkar to eliminate enemies quickly at close range. Approach an enemy from behind while remaining undetected, then press R3 when the takedown prompt appears. You can perform takedowns against enemies encountered during story missions, outpost captures, and open-world exploration. Repeat this until you've eliminated 25 enemies using takedowns to unlock Killer's Belief.

Tip

Enemy outposts are excellent locations for earning takedown kills. Use your owl to scout the area and mark enemy positions before sneaking inside. Crouch, approach isolated guards from behind, and eliminate them before nearby enemies notice. This also helps you capture outposts undetected for additional XP.

Warning

Only kills performed using the takedown action count. Ordinary melee attacks with clubs or other weapons won't contribute toward this trophy. If you've already captured every outpost, you can reset them through the options menu to create additional opportunities.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 25 enemies while riding a beast. First, recruit Tensay and progress through the Beast Master skill tree until you unlock the Beast Rider skill. This allows Takkar to mount certain tamed animals and use them during combat. Suitable mounts include the Brown Bear, Sabretooth Tiger, and Bloodfang Sabretooth. You can also earn mounted kills while riding a mammoth after unlocking the Mammoth Rider skill. Mount a compatible beast and attack hostile Udam or Izila warriors while remaining on its back. You can use your regular weapons or perform melee attacks with your mount. Continue eliminating enemies while mounted until you've reached 25 kills to unlock Outta My Way.

Tip

The Bloodfang Sabretooth is an excellent choice because its speed makes it easy to move between enemies and avoid incoming attacks. Enemy outposts and Tribal Clash missions offer plenty of opportunities to earn mounted kills.

Warning

You must be riding a beast when the enemy is eliminated. Ordering a companion to attack while you're standing on the ground won't count toward this trophy. Make sure you've unlocked the appropriate riding skill before attempting the challenge.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 15 enemies using throwing shards. Throwing shards become available after recruiting Wogah, the Wenja crafting specialist. Complete his missions, Trapped and Blood of Oros, to bring him into your village and unlock access to additional crafting abilities. Once throwing shards are available, craft them using the required materials and equip them from your weapon selection. Find hostile Udam or Izila warriors and throw shards directly at them. Aim for the head whenever possible, as throwing shards can be difficult to kill enemies with using ordinary body shots. Continue eliminating enemies with throwing shards until you reach 15 kills to unlock Quickdraw.

Tip

One of the easiest methods is to unlock the skill that allows Takkar to throw a shard at a nearby enemy immediately after performing a takedown. Use this ability against pairs of unsuspecting guards to earn throwing shard kills while also progressing toward Killer's Belief.

Warning

Only enemies killed by throwing shards count. Damaging an enemy with a shard before finishing them with another weapon won't contribute toward the trophy. If you're struggling to find targets, reset enemy outposts through the options menu.

How to Unlock

Kill an enemy from at least 50 feet away using a thrown spear. First, find a stationary enemy at an uncaptured outpost, bonfire, or other hostile location. Guards standing near entrances are particularly useful because they usually remain still until alerted. Use your owl to scout the area and identify a suitable target. Mark the enemy with a waypoint so you can judge the distance between Takkar and the target. Move approximately 50 feet or farther away, equip a spear, and aim slightly above the enemy to compensate for the weapon's downward trajectory. Throw your spear and land a killing blow from the required distance to unlock Right On Target.

Tip

Aim for an unarmored enemy who is standing still. Upgraded spears deal more damage and make it easier to secure a one-hit kill. Position yourself slightly beyond 50 feet rather than exactly on the minimum distance to avoid falling short of the requirement.

Warning

The enemy must be killed by a thrown spear from at least 50 feet away. Melee spear attacks don't count. If the target survives, the trophy won't unlock. Find another suitable enemy or try again with a stronger spear.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 100 enemies using a bow. Bows are among Takkar's most useful weapons, allowing you to eliminate enemies quietly from a distance. You'll obtain your first bow early in the story and unlock improved versions as you progress. Equip a bow and defeat hostile Udam and Izila warriors during story missions, sidequests, outpost captures, and open-world encounters. Headshots are particularly effective against unarmored enemies and can eliminate many targets with a single arrow. Continue defeating enemies with your bow until you reach 100 kills to unlock Sharpshooter.

Tip

Use your bow whenever you're capturing outposts stealthily. Silent headshots help prevent enemies from raising alarms, allowing you to earn additional XP for undetected captures. Collect hardwood regularly to maintain your arrow supply. You can also work toward Bullseye by eliminating an enemy with an arrow from at least 70 feet away.

Warning

The enemy must be killed by your bow. Kills from other weapons or your tamed beasts won't contribute toward the trophy. If you finish the story before reaching 100 kills, reset enemy outposts through the options menu to find additional targets.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 50 hostile targets using a tamed beast. First, recruit Tensay by completing Vision of Beasts to unlock beast taming. Use bait to tame a suitable predator, such as a wolf, jaguar, or sabretooth tiger. Once you've summoned your companion, use the beast command controls to order it to attack hostile enemies. Your beast can also defend itself automatically when threatened. Continue directing your companion against Udam warriors, Izila fighters, and other hostile targets until it has eliminated 50 of them. Sic 'Em unlocks once the required number of beast kills has been reached.

Tip

Powerful predators such as the Sabretooth Tiger and Bloodfang Sabretooth are particularly effective because they can eliminate ordinary enemies quickly. Send your beast into enemy outposts while you remain hidden. This allows you to earn companion kills while minimizing the danger to Takkar. You can also make progress toward Veterinarian by healing your beast whenever it takes damage.

Warning

Your tamed beast must kill the target. If you finish an enemy with your own weapon, that elimination won't contribute toward Sic 'Em. Keep your companion healthy and revive it when necessary. Avoid Survivor Mode, where beast deaths can become permanent.

How to Unlock

Eliminate 100 enemies using spears. Spears are powerful weapons that can be used for both close-range attacks and ranged throws. You'll gain access to them early in the story and can improve their effectiveness through crafting upgrades. Equip your spear and use it to defeat hostile enemies during missions, outpost assaults, or encounters in the wilderness. Both melee attacks and thrown spear kills contribute toward the requirement. Continue eliminating enemies with spears until you've reached 100 kills to unlock Skewered.

Tip

Thrown spears deal substantial damage and are particularly useful against heavily armored enemies. Keep collecting hardwood so you can replace your spears whenever necessary. Work toward Right On Target at the same time by attempting a spear kill from at least 50 feet away.

Warning

Kills made by your tamed beast or other weapons won't contribute toward the spear kill requirement. If you still need kills after finishing the story, reset enemy outposts through the options menu for a reliable supply of hostile targets.

How to Unlock

Capture 10 enemy outposts throughout Oros. Outposts are enemy-controlled camps marked on your world map with red icons featuring white mountain symbols. They contain groups of Udam or Izila warriors who must be eliminated before the location can be captured. Travel to an outpost and use your owl to scout the area. Mark enemy positions and locate any alarm horns before beginning your attack. Eliminate every enemy defending the outpost, including reinforcements if an alarm is triggered. Once the area is clear, the outpost becomes Wenja territory. Repeat this process until you've captured 10 outposts to unlock Skirmish.

Tip

Try to remain undetected while capturing outposts. Stealth captures provide additional XP, helping you progress toward Expert Wenja. Destroy alarm horns or eliminate enemies who can call reinforcements before attacking the remaining guards.

Warning

Bonfires and forts don't count toward Skirmish. You must capture 10 actual enemy outposts. You'll eventually need all 15 outposts for Expansion, so continue capturing them after this trophy unlocks.
