Far Cry 4 Guide › Quests and Activities

Armed Escort

Sometimes, you just need to get supplies from point A to point B. Unfortunately, with Min’s cronies running rampant on the roadways, a safe delivery is anything but guaranteed.

However, tossing a guy with a grenade launcher on top of the truck certainly improves the odds.

Note

Most Armed Escort quests are given out from unnamed locations. So we’ve organized them from western-most to eastern-most location (check their x coordinate), and listed them by cargo, which should roughly resemble the order in which you encounter them in the game.

Golden Path Supplies to Fight Noore

Location:x:337 y:585

When you arrive at the truck, the driver will tell you to grab the grenade launcher. Do it. You now have a new best friend.

Wave 1: One technical from behind, then a small roadblock with explosive barrels at one end.

Wave 2: One technical from behind, one from the front. The driver will volunteer to wait while you visit a nearby ammo crate, but there’s only one more technical coming up from behind anyway. enemies coming anyway.

Approximately Exact

Far Cry 4’s world is alive. As such, quests don’t always unfold exactly the same each and every time. During your playthrough, you may see a technical where these pages say ATV, or you may see one or two more or fewer enemy vehicles on the road in a certain spot. That’s all part of Far Cry 4’s charm.

Contraceptives

Location: x:353 y:660

Wave 1: Technical from your right.

Wave 2: Roadblock to the right, then left, then right again. Aim for the barrels, and watch for the mounted gun on the right and the technical that will approach from straight ahead.

Wave 3: Two technicals from behind, then on-foot enemies off to the left.

Books

Location: x:452 y:773

Wave 1: Roadblock to the right with two vehicles and several guards clustered around—believe it or not—a bunch of explosive barrels. Swish a grenade into the barrels, then hop off to take out any survivors.

During the next wave, watch the right side of the road for an ammo crate next to a white car.

Wave 2: A chopper and an ATV will come at you from behind. Then a truck from behind and an ATV from the side.

Wave 3: When the driver says “enemies in the road ahead”, leap off the truck so it stops short of the trap ahead. Proceed forward on foot to find a sniper on a second-story balcony to the left of the road, a heavy on the right, and a truckload of bad guys coming up the middle, as well as random other soldiers scattered around. Rather than risk your truck’s health going through this gauntlet, hop off to get the driver to stop, then take the enemies out on foot, preferably from afar, using your usual techniques. When it’s clear, jump back onto the truck, take out the technical about to swoop in front of you, and proceed to the drop-off point.

One-handed Demolition

Tucked away at the start of most every Armed Escort quest is a crate that offers you the M-79, a one-handed grenade launcher that can be used as a sidearm and fired while driving or piloting a vehicle. Don’t miss it!

Tip

Remember, you can repair the cargo truck just like any other vehicle. Don’t let its health drop too low.

Golden Path Guns to Fight De Pleur

Location: x:460 y:491

Wave 1: Fake accident with soldiers to the left, then front. Two technicals and soldiers to the front as well.

Wave 2: When the truck stalls, hop off and commandeer the machine gun nest to the right. Three technicals will converge at the crossroad. Hit them with the gun, then visit the ammo crate before reboarding the truck.

Wave 3: Checkpoint with one technical and several soldiers first ahead, then on the left.

Golden Path Suspicious Items

Location: x:461 y:339

Wave 1: Fake accident ahead and to the left.

Wave 2: Roadblock with technical ahead. May include rampaging elephant. Another technical will appear to your front-left as you pull away.

Wave 3: Checkpoint first ahead, then on either side. Watch for technical on the left.

Tip

Most Armed Escort quests have ammo crates. When you see boxes stacked next to an abandoned white pickup, hop off and stock up. The cargo truck will wait for you.

“Liberated” Gold

Location: x:572 y:624

This time, you’re protecting a boat, complete with a mounted machine gun turret. So hop on your ATV and head to the river.

Wave 1: Enemies on the north (right side) shore, one RHIB from ahead, then one from behind.

Wave 2: Two RHIBs from ahead, enemies on the left shoreline.

Wave 3: Scant enemies on island to the right, two boats ahead.

Food

Location: x:648 y:805

Wave 1: One technical from ahead and to the left, then another from behind. Then an ATV rider and heavy gunner ahead. The driver may point out ammo crates around this time. Look for the boxes near the white pickup.

Wave 2: FCheckpoint with technical ahead and enemies on right. Just past the checkpoint, additional enemy vehicles may approach from the right.

Wave 3: Helicopter will appear ahead. Shoot it in the stomach with a grenade and watch it fall, but be careful not to shoot it so quickly that it crashes onto the truck.

Weather Balloons

Location: x:782 y:691

Wave 1: A truck and two ATVs will come up from behind. Very soon after this, the cargo truck will hang a right and reveal another attacking vehicle on the left side. Two more ATVs will join the chase from behind. Just before a tunnel, the driver will point out an ammo crate (near a junked white truck) you can use to resupply. Take this chance to repair any damage done to the truck as well.

Wave 2: In the tunnel, prepare for a technical to come rolling up from behind. Another will appear in the road when you exit, then a third will roar down from the right. Next, you’ll meet a single ATV ahead, followed by a “last stand” force of two ATVs and two technicals. But they come one at a time, so if you’re quick on the trigger, you won’t be overwhelmed. Pull over and heal the truck whenever necessary.
