Just Cause 3 Guide › Story Missions

An Act of Piracy

You need to get better supplies and medical care for your allies. This mission starts in Grotta Contrabandero. Get onto the upper cliffs of the area, and look for the marker. It’s very close to where Connect the Dots ends, so doing these back to back is very efficient.

Trigger the mission and watch a scene with Dimah and the smugglers. You guys can help each other out. You’re going to steal a tank, and they’re going to get you the supplies you need. Get into a plane as the scene ends.

Reach Ponere to Steal the Tank

Take off and fly north, toward Ponere. When you get close to the objective, parachute out of the plane and drop toward the convoy below.

You can’t directly land on the super tank and hijack it. The tank’s designers thought of that and have given it a powerful Bavarium shield that prevents such attempts. However, this method of protection isn’t perfect. Every few seconds, the shield goes down so that the coils powering it don’t overheat. That’s your big chance.

Use your parachute to fly over the convoy, and drop onto the super tank as soon as its shield falls. This is the only way to capture the vehicle. Once you’re inside it, destroy any nearby enemy vehicles and start to make your escape.

Deliver the Tank to the Drop Point

You have a minigun and a heavy cannon to work with. The super tank (labeled as the Imperator Bavarium Tank) also has very strong armor. Use your Bavarium shield to supplement this, and almost nothing is going to be able to touch you.

Cut through your opposition and drive along the route that Teo gives you that leads toward the drop-off point.

There are gates blocking your path out of the military base. Shoot the gate controls to open these barriers. When you pass the main gate, you’re practically home free. Drive to the docks and continue destroying any enemy vehicles that pursue you so that the tank doesn’t take much damage.

Load your sweet prize onto the transport at the end of the route, and the mission is done.

Free Carnage

If you want to risk things a little, stay near the military compound that the convoy was entering and destroy everything in sight. You have a great vehicle to work with, so the Chaos is fast and easy to achieve.

In fact, you’re free to drive around Medici with the super tank, blowing apart everything that gets in your way. Go crazy on the militia; they have only their own engineers to blame!
