Far Cry 5 eGuide Jacob’s Region: Whitetail Mountains

Story Mission: Only You

  • Prerequisites: Resistance Rating Level 4 (Whitetail Mountains), Complete Story Mission: We Must Be Strong
  • Rewards: Jacob’s Rifle unlocked in shops, $3,000
  • Details: Hunt down and kill Jacob Seed.

MISSION Commencement

Prerequisites are met: An attack on the cult brings back the red mist. Consciousness is lost. You now know your purpose: Only you can make the darkness bright.

KILL the Final Target Before Time Runs Out (00:30)

You begin with 15 seconds on the clock. Tick, tock. You receive +6 seconds for each target you drop with a headshot. Excellent. You receive +4 seconds for each target you drop. You may elect to ignore targets.

Chamber 1—Projection Room: No differences.

Chamber 2—Hallway Void: Look for one removed target and one sniper on an upper-right balcony.

Chamber 3—Corridor Maze: No differences. Sacrifice.

Chamber 4—Red Courtyard: There are two additional targets (for a total of seven) on the upper balcony of the far building.

Chamber 5—Red Staircase: A wolf kills the deer. The previous fourth foe on the right is no more. The three original foes are here.

Chamber 6—Dormitory and Mess Hall: No differences. Sacrifice the weak.

Chamber 7—Container Corridor: No differences.

Chamber 8—Command Room: There’s one very important difference (and it cannot be avoided). Good work. You passed your test. Jacob is pleased.

DESTROY Wolf Beacons (6)

You stagger out of Wolf’s Den. Across the rocky terrain are six Wolf Beacons, part of the elaborate sonic plan. You must destroy these. Simply shoot the generator. No gun? Punch out Jacob and grab his shotgun; he’s not real (one hopes). Then make a determined journey to each subsequent beacon, blasting them (in any order you like). They are rigged with explosives, so shoot the generators from a reasonable distance.

Pick up additional (and longer-range weapons) from the deputy, who appears again as you reach the third Wolf Beacon. Continue through the red mist, killing anyone that moves. Do not stop until the last beacon is destroyed.

KILL Jacob Seed

You snap out of your stupor. Head toward the rock formation of Wolf’s Den. Terminate a quartet of cult foes along the way. Gather a favored weapon from them. Clear the three foes and two Judge Wolves before facing Jacob on the promontory he’s on. Execute Jacob Seed and claim his key. Story Mission: Casualties of War begins now.
