Ghost Recon Wildlands Trophy Guide & Roadmap

First you must get the “Mortar” rebel skill, which is an unmissable unlock in one of the first few main quests of Itacua province (starting province). The quest is called “Rebellion Rising” and cannot be missed.

Now go to one of the rebel side quests in which you must steal a helicopter. There are plenty of those throughout the game. Two of them are in Itacua region. They pop up when investigating intel, or you can head straight to the location from the video and mark the helicopter with your binoculars to trigger it.
Alert the lieutenant near the helicopter. He’ll enter the helicopter and try to fly away. Immediately when he enters the helicopter you must request a mortar strike from the rebels in the command wheel. Hold R1 (PS4) / RB (XB1) and push the left stick to select it. You must be aiming at the helicopter when requesting the mortar strike.

If your timing is right it will shoot the helicopter out of the air. If you fail, let the enemies kill you or quit out to main menu and retry.

Farming it really isn’t necessary; it’s just in case you want this as fast as possible. You’ll probably drive more than 1000 km while going for the other trophies, so don’t worry about this too much.

This will come automatically while doing all main quests. You’ll have to interrogate more than 20 sources over the course of the game (probably 30 from main missions alone). If you play in co-op make sure that you are the one doing the interrogations.

There are 21 regions and each one of them contains Kingslayer Files. Some of the Kingslayer files are normal documents needed for this trophy and some are legends needed for “Legendary Hunter”.

They are all at named map locations (enemy bases / outposts / checkpoints / villages etc.). Simply discover the named locations and they will be revealed on the world map. To discover named locations you best use a helicopter or plane. Look for outlines of buildings on the map, those hint at named locations.

Fly close to those settlements. Then they will get marked on the world map which reveals the documents with the  icon.

None of them are missable. You can get them at any time in the open world.  They are very easy to find and don’t require a collectible guide. Just go to all named locations and they will pop up on the map. You can also pick them up while playing co-op. All regions are accessible from the beginning. When scrolling over a region on the map it says how many “Kingslayer Files” you have found. Pressing Square on the map lets you view these collectibles. All the Kingslayer files with a unique name are required (everything that isn’t called “LEGEND”).

*There are reports of the trophy popping early. Some people got it even though they were missing a few people (up to 7 documents missing and the trophy popped anyway).

*Several of the document counters / trackers are wrong. The documents are often missing in the regions they should be in, and instead are in different regions. For example, in Media Luna it shows 10 documents but there are only 9. There is an extra one in the neighboring region P.N. De Agua Verde, but picking it up doesn’t add a document to any region counter (still, it does add to the trophy progress). There are multiple glitched documents like that. If a document seems to be missing from a region double check the neighboring regions, especially near the region’s borders. The icons all show up on the map, just the trackers are not reliable. Again, keep in mind some people got lucky and popped the trophy early, so try to collect all other documents first and see if it unlocks the trophy.

Over the course of the game you will very often run into snipers. They are hiding in guard towers. When marking them with the binoculars or drone they have a different icon than normal enemies (orange crosshairs icon).
Double tap triangle (PS4) / Y (XB1) to equip the pistol. Now kill the sniper with it. You can run straight to the sniper and kill him, doesn’t matter if you are detected or not.

This requires an internet connection!

You can either invite a friend to your co-op session or join a public session with random players. Press Touchpad > Lobby to manage your co-op settings, join sessions or invite people.

With one or more co-op partners in your session complete any 3 missions. You can also replay missions in case you’ve already beaten them all. Press Triangle on the world map to replay missions.

This requires the “C4” skill (category: item skills). The skill “Diversion Lure” is highly recommended! Not absolutely needed, but makes it easier to lure together some enemies.

A great spot for the trophy is in main mission “The Deserter” (Montuyoc Province)
There are 7 enemies standing very close together at the first objective of this mission. Mark them with the drone to see where they are. One of them is walking around, the others are standing still. Throw the C4 when they are all close together. Hold the throw-button to detonate the C4 (L1 on PS4 / LB on XB1). It has a huge blast radius and will kill them all.
To make this a little easier, throw a Diversion Lure first. The enemies will investigate it and get close together.

If you still have trouble buy the Epic Skill “Explosion Radius” from the item category. You must buy the first upgrade of all item skills to get it. This increases the blast radius so you can hit more enemies at once (I’m not using this skill in the video, it’s completely optional).

If something goes wrong, kill the guy with the yellow quest marker or let him escape – this will respawn you near the enemy group.

This requires the “Mine” skill (category: item skills). The skills “Diversion Lure” and “Flashbang” are highly recommended!

A great spot for the trophy is in main mission “The Deserter” (Montuyoc Province)
There are 7 enemies standing very close together at the first objective of this mission. Mark them with the drone to see where they are. Throw a Diversion lure to bring them closer together. The lure only attracts enemies within a certain radius. Make sure you throw it far enough so that enemies near the water can hear it. The enemies will come to investigate and stand around the lure. Throw 1-2 flashbangs to blind them, rush in and quickly place the Mine. Now shoot the mine and it will blow them up.
To make this a little easier, throw a Diversion Lure first. The enemies will investigate it and stand closer together.

Compared to other explosives the mine has a rather small explosion radius. If you have trouble buy the Epic Skill “Explosion Radius” from the item category. You must buy the first upgrade of all item skills to get it. This increases the blast radius so you can hit more enemies at once (I’m not using this skill in the video, it’s completely optional).

If something goes wrong, kill the guy with the yellow quest marker or let him escape – this will respawn you near the enemy group.
The same strategy can be replicated in other places, wherever you have 7 or more enemies. Just throw lures until they are all close together, stun them with flashbangs, place mine near them and shoot it. Alternatively, you may also use the Flare Gun to lure enemies.

There are 21 regions and each one of them contains Kingslayer Files. Some of the Kingslayer files are normal documents and some are legends needed for this trophy.

They are all at named map locations (enemy bases / outposts / checkpoints / villages etc.). Simply discover the named locations and they will be revealed on the world map. To discover named locations you best use a helicopter or plane. Look for outlines of buildings on the map, those hint at named locations.

Fly close to those settlements. Then they will get marked on the world map which reveals the legends with the  icon.

None of them are missable. You can get them at any time in the open world.  They are very easy to find and don’t require a collectible guide. Just go to all named locations and they will pop up on the map. You can also pick them up while playing co-op. All regions are accessible from the beginning. When scrolling over a region on the map it says how many “Kingslayer Files” you have found. Pressing Square on the map lets you view these collectibles. All the Kingslayer files named “LEGEND” are required.

• Steal the Helicopter
• Steal the Plane
• Tag the drop site supplies
• Grab and intimidate the Sicario
• Stop the Convoy
• Blow up one of the station’s entrances
• Deactivate the antenna
• Start the Radio

They get marked on the world map when:

1. You find intel (frequently found at named map locations, marked on map with exclamation mark)
2. You interrogate informants in the open world (frequently found at named map locations, marked on map with exclamation mark)
3. You go near the side quest starting points
4. You scan the side quest starting points with a drone or binoculars

The side quest locations are very easy to reveal. To start new main quests you have to infiltrate enemy bases and find major intel. There’s almost always a piece of normal intel nearby that reveals collectibles and side missions on the map. There are tons of these intel items and they are always at named map locations (enemy bases and other settlements). When interacting with intel you can choose whether to reveal collectible locations or side missions. Press D-Pad Left / Right to reveal the side missions. They will then show up on the map with green icons. Find more intel to reveal more side missions.

They are marked by a green icon on the map. To reveal them you must read intel files, which are frequently found at named map areas (enemy bases, villages etc.). All convoys respawn when you die. Use this to your advantage to farm them over and over again.

A few convoys can also be found in main missions, such as “Rebellion Rising” in Itacua (starting region). It’s unclear if those count or not. The trophy will unlock naturally over time while going through the convoy side quests.

• From leveling up (provides very few points)
• From killing bosses (each boss gives 3-10 points at once)
• From finding Skill point collectibles (6-8 per region)

Clearing high level regions will earn you 15 skill points or more. You must also level up quite a bit to obtain enough additional points.

Resources are obtained mostly from side quests (marked by green icons on map after reading intel files). They are also found at almost every enemy base (very few compared to side missions).

Press Touchpad > Skills to view them and buy new skills. There are 5 skill categories:

1. Weapon
2. Drone
3. Item
4. Physical
5. Squad

Buying all skills unlocks the 3 trophies “Ultimate Skill”, “Only the Best”, “Top Drone”.

Only certain side missions provide rebel skills. When scrolling over a quest icon on the world map you can see what reward it will give.

To see which rebel skills have been unlocked, press Touchpad > Skills > Rebel Support.

There are 5 skills and each one has 3 strength levels + several cooldown levels:

• Vehicle Drop-Off
• Guns for Hire
• Mortar
• Diversion
• Spotting

Level 30 is the maximum level.

Use a sniper rifle for this. One can be found in Itacua province (where the game starts) in the weapon case by the rally point “Itacua Echo”. That’s in the north of the province. Any other sniper rifle works, too.

Just a little bit north of Itacua Echo is an enemy checkpoint (marked as “checkpoint” on map). There are a bunch of guard towers with snipers inside. Walk along the road or hill to get 400 meters away from them, then kill an enemy using the sniper rifle. To see the distance use binoculars and press Square (PS4) / X (XB1). This lets you place a distance marker on the enemy.
Aim a little bit high to account for bullet drop. Later in the game you’ll find better scopes and stronger sniper rifles which will make this slightly easier. If you have any trouble, return later.

This requires an internet connection!

You can either invite a friend to your co-op session or join a public session with random players. Press Touchpad > Lobby to manage your co-op settings, join sessions or invite people.

Let another player shoot an enemy with a pistol. Now you run up to that enemy and perform a melee takedown (press R3). The enemy must be alerted; otherwise he dies in 1 pistol shot. You can shoot the upper body. It doesn’t matter what body part you shoot as long as they stay alive. The enemy will keep walking around after your teammate shot him. This can be a bit hectic so leave only one single enemy alive (the armored Unidad enemies work best). Tell your buddy to shoot the enemy once and then do the melee takedown.

If you’re playing a public session with random people always rush towards the enemies and do one takedown after another. Eventually you’ll get lucky with it.

Step 1: Buy explosion drone skill (unlocks at level 15).
Step 2: Equip explosive drone in loadout (click on the drone icon to choose between explosive, EMP etc.)
Step 3: Fly drone near an enemy and press R3 / Right Stick for explosion.

A good spot for this is in Itacua province (where the game starts) in the enemy base “F.O.B. Armadillo”. This is a Unidad controlled military base in the east with a Power Generator.
First, buy the C4 skill from the pause menu. Once you have it, head into the base and throw C4 at the generator. Blow it up and this easy trophy / achievement is yours.

The generator respawns every time you fast travel. It’s not a problem if you previously destroyed it. Just fast travel there again and it will respawn.
