Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands
Infinite resources
Further into the game, especially when you have multiple skill points and few resources, fast travel to the Villa Verde Alpha rally point in the Villa Verde region in Solo mode (cannot be done in Co-Op mode). You will need an EMP drone, preferably Level 2 or 3. You will also need the Grenade Launcher skill and attachment on your weapon. You can still do this without the EMP drone and Grenade Launcher, but it will be more difficult and time consuming. As soon as you spawn at the Villa Verde Alpha rally point, open your map to see the nearby “+5,000” resource convoy, east of Villa Verde Alpha. It will have one of the four resources and cycles often. Mark the convoy and the following checkpoint on the map. Then, grab a motorcycle and quickly drive to the marked checkpoint. Drive through the river and park at the end of the fork in the road, hiding behind the trees. Quickly switch your weapon to the grenade launcher and deploy the EMP drone. Hit the middle of the convoy with the drone to stop it, making sure to not get spotted by the enemies as you are using the drone while hiding behind the trees. Next, shoot three grenades into the front and back vehicles to destroy them. Run up to the middle vehicle and kill the passenger and driver with bullets from your weapon. Tag the supplies to complete the side mission and get 5,000 resources. If done correctly, all the enemies will be dead and you can fast travel back to the Villa Verde Alpha rally point. Since you are in Solo mode, the world will reset and the supply convoy will respawn. Repeat this process as many times as desired to get an unlimited amount of resources. The entire process should take between 1:45 to 2 minutes each time. You can get between 150,000 to 170,000 resources per hour, depending on your efficiency. Note: Make sure to meet the convoy at the fork in the road. If you meet them further up the road, there is a nearby base where enemies will keep respawning from and hunting you until you escape, which adds more time to the process. Additionally, this exploit can be done at any convoy side mission around the map.
Getting a good starting sniper rifle and scope
To get one of the best sniper rifles and scopes at the start of the game, first find a helicopter, which can be found in many areas. Fly it northeast to the Monte Puncu region. The map will not be uncovered yet, but that is not an issue. Travel to the following location to find the L115A3 Sniper Rifle, one of the most powerful sniper rifles in the game. Then, travel to the following location to get the Digital Scope for the sniper rifle. The location is a bit south from the sniper rifle location in the Monte Puncu region.
Getting the AK-47 and Desert Eagle
Travel to the Libertad region in the southeast of the map. It is rated at a maximum difficulty level, but use a helicopter to easily navigate and grab the AK-47 at this location and Desert Eagle (D-50) at this location .

“Don’t Press Me” Easter Egg in La Cruz
There is another button with a sign next to it saying “Don’t Press Me” at the top of a hill in La Cruz at the following location . After pressing the button, four rockets are launched straight at you. Instead of exploding and killing you, they just burst into confetti.
“Don’t Press Me” Easter Egg in Malca
There is another button with a sign next to it saying “Don’t Press Me” near the huge statue on a mountain in Pucara at the following location . It is recommended to use a helicopter to reach the area. After pressing the button, the statue will briefly catch on fire. This is a reference to Burning Man, which is an annual gathering that takes place at Black Rock City — a temporary city erected in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada.

Easy “A Better Mousetrap” achievement
Buy the “Mine” skill under the “Item” skills category. It is also helpful to have the “Diversion Lure” and “Flashbang” skills. A great place to kill seven enemies with a single mine is in “The Deserter” (Montuyoc province) main mission. There are seven enemies standing close together at the first objective of this mission. Mark them with the drone to see where they are. Throw a Diversion Lure to get them closer together. The lure only attracts enemies within a certain radius. Make sure you throw it far enough so 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, run in, and quickly place the mine. Then, detonate the mine to kill all of them and get the “A Better Mousetrap” achievement. Compared to other explosives the mine has a rather small explosion radius. If you still have trouble, buy the “Explosion Radius” epic skill from the “Item” skills 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. If something goes wrong, kill the guy with the yellow quest marker or let him escape to respawn you near the enemy group. This same strategy can be used in other places that have seven or more enemies. Just throw lures until they are all close together, stun them with flashbangs, place a mine near them, and detonate it.
Easy “Black-out Boomer” achievement
A good place to do this is at the “F.O.B. Armadillo” enemy base in the Itacua province (where the game begins). This is an Unidad controlled military base in the east with a power generator. First, buy the C4 skill from the pause menu. Once you have it, enter the base and throw C4 at the generator. Blow it up to get the “Black-out Boomer” achievement. The generator also respawns every time you fast travel. Thus, it is not a problem if you previously destroyed it. Just fast travel there again for it to respawn.
Easy “Cluster Bomber” achievement
Buy the “C4” skill under the “Item” skills category. It is also helpful to have the “Diversion Lure” skill because it makes it easier to lure enemies together. A great place to kill seven enemies with a single C4 blast is in “The Deserter” (Montuyoc province) main mission. There are seven enemies standing 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, and the others are standing still. Throw the C4 when they are all close together, then hold [Throw] to detonate it. It has a large blast radius and should 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 “Explosion Radius” epic skill from the “Item” skills 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. If something goes wrong, kill the guy with the yellow quest marker or let him escape to respawn you near the enemy group. This same strategy can be used in other places that have seven or more enemies. Just throw lures until they are all close together, throw the C4 near them, and detonate it.
Easy “Death From Above” achievement
Buy the “Explosion Drone” skill, which is unlocked at Level 15. Equip the explosive drone in the loadout (click on the drone icon to choose between explosive, EMP, etc.). Fly the drone near an enemy and explode it to kill the enemy with the drone and get the “Death From Above” achievement.
Easy “Long Shot” achievement
Use a sniper rifle to do this. One can be found in the Itacua province (where the game begins) in the weapon case by the “Itacua Echo” rally point, which is in the north of the province. Any other sniper rifle also works. Slightly 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 the binoculars to place a distance marker on the enemy. Aim a little bit high to account for bullet drop. Later in the game you will find better scopes and stronger sniper rifles that make doing this slightly easier.
Easy “Pull!” achievement
First, get the “Mortar” rebel skill from the “Rebellion Rising” quest, which is an unmissable unlock in one of the first few main quests in the Itacua province (starting province). Then, go to one of the rebel side quests where you must steal a helicopter. There are plenty of them throughout the game. Two of them are in the Itacua region. They appear while investigating intel. Alert the lieutenant near the helicopter (shoot near him), and he will enter the helicopter and try to fly away. Immediately when he enters the helicopter, request a mortar strike from the rebels in the command wheel. You must be aiming at the helicopter when requesting the mortar strike. If timed correctly, it will shoot the helicopter out of the air and you will get the “Pull!” achievement. If you fail, let the enemies kill you or quit out to main menu and try again.
Easy “With A Pistol!” achievement
You will often run into snipers throughout the game. They are hiding in guard towers. When marking them with the binoculars or drone, they have a different icon (orange crosshairs) than normal enemies. Equip the pistol, then kill a sniper with it to get the “With A Pistol!” achievement. You can run straight to a sniper and kill him; it does not matter if you are detected or not.
